The Selection Of The President Pro Tempore of the US Senate- Part Three

The Selection Of The President Pro Tempore of the US Senate- Part Three

The passage of the U.S. Constitution regarding this position:

[Article I, Section 3, Clause 5

The Senate shall chuse their other Officers, and also a President pro tempore, in the Absence of the Vice President, or when he shall exercise the Office of President of the United States.]

Since the change of the American State and of federal government that took place after the American Civil War started, the President Pro Tempore position needs to change. Due to the fact the Vice-President Of The United States (VPOTUS) has changed its position completely, this would compel this temporary position into a permanent position. While it is currently a permanent position in practice, the manner in which this position is chosen must change.

The VPOTUS should no longer be President Of The US Senate. The VPOTUS should be purely an federal executive branch position. His/her responsibilities should not overlap into the federal legislative branch. The VPOTUS can nominate a candidate for the President Of The US Senate. Members of the US Senate need to confirm that nominee by a majority vote, provided all quorum limits are met.

The President Pro Tempore position should be abolished. At the same time, it is not compliant with the Representative ideal for the US Senate members to elect the permanent President Of The US Senate. Rather these members of the federal upper house legislative body just needs to provide confirmation of the VPOTUS choice for that position. By doing this, they have a stake in how that position is filled but they do not have a direct stake.

The VPOTUS must do the nomination of the President Of The US Senate because the VPOTUS is an elected official who has no involvement with the individual in that position. The POTUS should no do the nomination since he/she does have dealings with the US Senate.

Representative Democratic Model- Selectable Offices

PartThirty-One The Filling Of Vacancies For Federal Appellate Court Judges:

If a Federal Appellate Court Judge cannot complete that term for any reason (removal, retirement, resignation, or death), then the Federal House Speaker should appoint a Substitute Federal Appellate Court Judge to serve till the end of the next legislative session. If the term of the vacated judge expires by the time the next legislative session ends, the VPOTUS should nominate and the U.S. House Of Representatives should confirm another individual to serve as Federal Appellate Court Judge.

If the term of the vacated Federal Appellate Court Judge has not expired by the end of the next legislative session, the VPOTUS should unilaterally select the Acting Federal Appellate Court Judge who will serve till the end of that term. The Substitute Federal Appellate Court Judge is ineligible to serve as Acting Federal Appellate Court Judge.

He/she should be subject to nomination by the VPOTUS and then by confirmation by the U.S. House Of Representatives if he/she desires to remain on that bench upon completion of the term the vacated Federal Appellate Court Judge was scheduled to serve. If confirmed by the U.S. Senate, the Acting U.S. Appellate Court Judge becomes the U.S. Appellate Court Judge for the entire next new term.

The President or the federal legislatures should not get involved in the selection of an Acting U.S. Appellate Court Judge. It would demonstrate direct democratic mode as involvement by too many government bodies means too much political interference.

The choosing of any acting officeholder has to be more non-political than the choosing of an officeholder. An U.S. Appellate Court Judge, before serving the first term, should have to be both nominated and confirmed. However an individual initially serving as Acting U.S. Appellate Court Judge only needs to be selected by the VPOTUS to serve the remaining term of the vacated judge.

The Substitute Federal Appellate Court Judge is barred from serving as both Acting and as Actual Federal Appellate Court Judge. Otherwise the lack of this ban would precipitate Democratic Imperialism due to the fact centralization of power would result. An individual serving in multiple roles is considered Imperial Democratic Mode.

Allowing the Acting U.S. Appellate Court Judge to serve longer than the remaining term of the vacated Federal Appellate Court Judge without nomination and confirmation is also demonstrating Imperial Democratic Mode.

Cliff Notes Version: The Federal House Speaker chooses the substitute for the federal appellate court judge to serve till the end of the next legislative session. After that, if the term of the vacated Federal Appellate Court Judge has not expired, the Vice-President finds another individual to act as federal appellate court judge till the end of that term.

Only the VPOTUS should select the Acting U.S. Appellate Court Judge. The Acting Federal Appellate Court Judge can become the Federal Appellate Court Judge once he/she completes the vacated U.S. Appellate Court Judge's term and is both nominated by the VPOTUS and then confirmed by the U.S. House of Representatives.

The choosing of any acting officeholder has to be more non-political than the choosing of an officeholder. Involvement from too many government bodies means direct democratic mode. This means too much political interference. However, insufficient involvement by government bodies breeds Imperial Democratic Mode.

Judges That Are To Be Nominated By Either The Governor Or The Vice-Governor

Representative Democratic Model- Selectable Offices Part Thirty-Five (Session Five)-

The Governor (state head executive) should nominate state trial court judges as well as the chief justice of the state appellate court that adjudicates civil cases of equity. The Vice-Governor (vice state head executive) should nominate appellate court judges as well as the chief justice of the state appellate court that adjudicates criminal cases of law.

However the Governor should be provided selection filters by the State Senate before he/she nominates the state trial court judges as well as the chief justice of the state appellate court that adjudicates civil cases of equity. The Vice-Governor should be provided selection filters by the State House of Delegates/Assemblymen before he/she nominates the state appellate court judges as well as the chief justice of the state appellate case that adjudicates criminal cases of law.

For the sake of separation of powers. The Chief Justice has too much power as he/she not only manages the court, he/she also gets to vote. A justice should do one or the other. No public officeholder should do both.

What is destroying America is dual role participation of government. Moreover due to the fact that the head executive (state or federal) should nominate both the trial court judges and the chief justice of one appellate court, he/she should not be allowed to nominate both the appellate court judges and the chief justice of the other appellate court.

Bizarre Story Of An Austrian- By Harsha Sankar

Written is a bizarre story of an Austrian. His father's birth name was Shicklgruber. His mother was a housekeeper. After quitting secondary studies, he was rejected by Vienna School of the Arts twice and blamed the Jewish administration. For next five years he slept on street corners and in shelters. He then left for Munich. For over a year he had an outdoor mural doing water coloring, paintings,and sculptures. .

He joined the Bavarian Infantry Unit as the Great War broke out. Despite  huge demand for NCO's in the Kaiser's Army, he was only promoted to lance corporal. He blamed his Jewish superior. Participating in many battles, he was badly wounded twice and was thus awarded the Iron Cross. 

After the European Dynasties ended, the Man of Destiny would begin. Newly appointed as spy, he infiltrated political meetings. He learned about Eastern traditions. He quit eating meat, believing killing of animals was wrong. He would incorporate the Hindu word "Aryan" and Hindu symbol, the Swastika. 

Discharged from the military, the 30 year old was a "stray dog looking for a new master". He joined the German Worker's Party (DAP). Asked to give a brief talk, he soon became its spokesman. A year after that, he became its head executive. The party was renamed National Socialist DAP. Detractors called it "Nazi". 

 

Many Germans blamed Jewish international financial capitalists and Communist Jews for their plight. He and his party voiced their concerns. Two years later his party tried to overthrow the Bavarian state government from a pub. During his prison time,the maid's son wrote a book which became, next to The Holy Bible, the world's best-seller. It warned all humanity.

After seven years of endless campaigning, his party had yet to make mainstream impact. During the Depression, they made great strides, becoming the biggest party in Germany. The violent vagabond from Vienna stood election and lost significantly twice against Hindenberg, a junker of Prussian honor. However the aging President named this recent recipient of German citizenship as Chancellor, the No.2 man in that nation's government.

 

The art school reject quietly exterminated democracy and human rights. After Hindenburg died, the man of peasant stock expedited tyranny. The beer joint rebel consolidated his office with that of President. The non-German would be retitled "The Leader" throughout the Fatherland. 

   

     In 1913, he left Austria a tramp. Quarter century later, he came back a ruler, annexing that nation into the Third Reich. A few years later, once deemed not fit to lead privates in his last military stint, the high school dropout would now command a highly mechanized eight million man military. The former homeless man had nearly an entire continent, the northern part of another, and one-fifth (400 million) of world's population under his rule.

 

The once fringe politician and street corner orator had the whole world gasping for breath. 30 months later, the miracles ran out. The Supreme Warlord only had a bunker to rule. More than anyone else, this lover of animals was responsible for a war that killed 60 million people. The WWI war hero's cowardly suicide took place on a paganistic satanic holiday

Reviled as the darkest figure in human history, the name of this genocidal psychopath was Adolph Hitler.

The Renaming Of India To Bharat: Causes And Effects

There has been debate in the nation of India that its name should be changed to Bharat. It appears that India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi has addressed this to the parliament of that nation.

Naturally may believe that this name change is a racist measure that favors Hindu Nationalism. But does it really? The following that is cited must be taken into consideration.

"The term "Hindu" traces back to Old Persian which derived these names from the Sanskrit name Sindhu (सिन्धु), referring to the river Indus. The Greek cognates of the same terms are "Indus" (for the river) and "India" (for the land of the river)"- Wikipedia.

This Wikipedia reference clearly indicates that India and Hindu have the same root morphology. Therefore India is more associated with Hindu than Bharat is. This reference also cites that Hindu is derived from Sindh and Indus. Two of the first Indian civilizations, Harappa and Mahenjo Daro, were in that region. Because Sindh and the Indus River are now in Independent Pakistan and not Independent India, this name change to Bharat seems to be viable and more appropriate.

The country (varṣam) that lies north of the ocean and south of the snowy mountains is called Bharatam; there dwell the descendants of Bharata. —Vishnu Purana (2. 3. 1) (Ancient Hindu scripture)

The preceding phrase, while stipulated in Ancient Hindu Scripture, has nothing to do with the descendants' religion. Hinduism itself is not a religion. It is a heritage of a people from the country of Bharatam. The Old Testament of The Holy Bible can also be described as a heritage with all its folklore and parables. Both Christianity and Islams are both faith-based, however, and are considered religions due to its core principles and edicts.

In lieu of the foregoing, Bharat refers to a specific geographical land mass from the Indian Ocean in the south to the snowy mountains in the Himalayas and even in those bordering the Afghanistan regions. That describes the Indian sub-continent today.

In the last decades of the 18th century, the British started to refer to that sub-continent as India as the British East India Company had extensive land holdings in South Asia, including the Indus Valley. The name stuck. The name India furthermore received more permanence when that sub-continent became an official colony of the British Empire in 1857. That colony was called British India. While Sindh, the Indus Valley, and the Indus River were part of British India and also previously of the British East Indian Company, they have never been part of Independent India. Hence one reason why today's India would want to be renamed.

So as India is now rapidly trying to remove the colonialist yoke of the British Empire from its nation, would it not be appropriate to rename itself as Bharat? After all, nearly all non-Hindus (one-fifth of India's population) in that nation are viewed as descendants of Bharata and thus hail from Bharatam. The religion/faith, or lack thereof, of any of its people is not a factor. Due to the fact that the name Bharat is far more an irreligious name than India, perhaps this name change is in order.

Representative Republic Ideals-Secondary Features (The United States Senate"s Approval Of Treaties With Foreign Entities)

All prospective legislation for domestic purposes has to originate in the lower house (House Of Representatives). All prospective legislation that deal with all foreign matters, including ratification of treaties, should be approved by the upper house (The U.S. Senate) with a simple majority. Presently a 2/3rds majority vote by the U.S. Senate for treaties with foreign entities is required as cited in the U.S. Constitution. This requirement of voting percentage must change.

The reason for this needed change is simple. The federal government became the sovereign government authority in the aftermath of the American Civil War. This change was designed to make the federal government much more effective and act with much more unison in implementing both foreign and even domestic policy. Therefore ratification of any treaties with foreign entities should only require approval by a simple majority of the U.S. Senate, provided quorum limits are met.

Population-Based Democracy Vs. Area-Based Democracy-(Part Sixteen)

Population-Based Democracy Vs. Area-Based Democracy-(Part Sixteen)

Members of the United States House Of Representatives should be elected by the electoral vote process.

Members of a state delegates/assemblypersons in every state should be elected by the electoral vote process.

Members of the United States Senate for each state should be chosen by the legislatures in each state.

Members of the state senate in each state should be chosen by the legislatures in every locality.

The reason for this is simple. The people who are supposed to be generally sovereign have their electorate choose (elect) members of both the state and federal lower legislative houses. They do this via electoral voting and not by direct voting.

However in the choosing (selection) of members of both the state and federal upper legislative houses, the local and state legislatures should make this choosing (selection) of these state and federal upper legislative houses respectively.

The reason for this difference is the state and federal upper legislative houses should not be extensions of the state and federal lower legislative houses respectively. In order to protect the sovereignty of the People, its electorate must not be given the unbridled authority and responsibility to make the choosing of lawmakers in both houses at both levels. That is too direct democratic and that panders to the "Winds Of Populism".

The core tenant of the protection of People's sovereignty is the protection of rights of the individual(s) except when public safety is at stake and when basic general welfare needs have to be maintained. That is why the choosing of state and federal upper house legislative members must be different than how state and federal lower house legislative are chosen.

It must be noted that in a Representative Democratic Republic mode, sovereign entities do not always do the choosing of public office holders. As a matter of fact, head executives of local governments are chosen by officeholders of subordinate and inferior authority. Federal and state senators must also be chosen by officeholders who have subordinate and inferior authority.

The only difference, in this choosing of local head executives and state and federal upper legislative house members by those of subordinate/inferior authority, is that local legislatures choose its own head executives while state and federal senators are chosen by legislators at a different level.

"Top Two" Primaries- Government Modes

 "Top Two" Primaries- Government Modes

"Top Two" Primaries is a primary which decides the top two candidates who only will be allowed to stand in the general election later in that year.

Imperial Democratic Mode- This mode will use this activity as it will give impetus to the most powerful political party in that specific constituency. This type pf primary could restrict a smaller major political party or a minor party from fielding candidates in the general election. This would also prevent Independents who are not the Top Two candidates from contesting the general elections.

By restricting competition for the general election, this runoff between these two candidates definitely has to be categorized as Imperial Democratic Mode. This mode could have two Republicans running against each other or it could have two Democrats running against each other in the general election. As cited previously, this mode could and would benefit the strongest political party in that constituency.

direct democratic mode- This mode would never use this activity. direct democratic mode allows as many as possible candidates to contest the general election. This mode would actually call for an election system that is converse to the "Top Two Primary".

This mode would mandate that every political party be represented by more than just one eligible political office candidate in the general election. If a political party(s) would be unable to be represented by two or more eligible candidates for a political office in a general election, that political party(s) would be banned from fielding any candidate for that office in a general election.

The preceding implemented measure would certainly limit the stranglehold the political party(s) has over the body politic.

Representative Democratic mode- This mode could use this activity. Representative Democratic mode would allow candidates to freely contest the general election without undermining the political party process. This mode would have an election system that is different to both the "Top Two Primary" system and to the direct democratic system. This mode would have the following.

This mode would allow but not mandate that every political party be represented by more than just one eligible political office candidate in the general election. A political party could still be permitted to field just eligible candidates for a political office. Representative Democratic Mode would all the political party to decide this issue on its own.

The preceding implemented measure would certainly limit the stranglehold a political party would have over the body politic but it would not neuter the effectiveness of the political party process. This mode would not allow the political party(s) to dominate the elections by having exclusive domain over the selections of eligible candidates for political office(s) in a general election. However it would recognize the justifiable importance that political party(s) should have in Representative Democratic governance. Therefore this mode would not mandate but would only permit that political party(s) can have more than that just one representative in the general election if it so chooses.

Representative Democratic mode could allow "Top Two Primary" if it was allowed by a state's constitution or by a locality's by-laws which are approved by the majority of members in both legislative houses, pro quorum limits being met. However anyone can still contend for office in the general election. Only the two candidates who receive the highest and second highest number of votes in the "Top Two Primary" will have their names on the general election ballot. The other candidates who wish to compete in the general election will have to be a write-in candidate.

Russia-Ukraine Conflict- The Consequences (Part Three & Part Four)

 Russia-Ukraine Conflict- The Consequences (Part Three)

It is not just NATO nations who want Ukraine to fight to its last man as NATO is using Ukraine as its Private Military Contractor. While only 2% of the elected officials in Kyiv Parliament belong to Far Right parties, a significant minority if not the majority of Ukrainians in Western and even Northern Ukraine harbor strong anti-Russian sentiments. So many Ukrainians would "cut their own throat" than meekly surrender to the Russians.

They have utmost contempt for the "Bolshevik hordes" from the East. The Azov Battalion (militia), the Armed Forces Of Ukraine, the Ukraine's secret police (SBU), and its regular police force in those regions in Ukraine strongly reflect this.

Russia-Ukraine Conflict- The Consequences (Part Four)

As Ukraine continues to protract this "war" with Russia, it will do so at its own peril. Ukraine has at least 300,000 soldiers who will never be able to contribute to the war effort again. That is well over 40% of its total military. More importantly the majority of their highly competent professional soldiers have been totally depleted. This means even if NATO continues to send to Ukraine much more sophisticated military equipment, Ukraine will not have the sufficient staff to operate all of this.

Russia has nearly 200,000 soldiers who will never be able to fight for it again. However their military is stronger than it has ever been in terms of equipment (quantity and quality) and in terms of troop numbers. In the last two years, Russia has only spent 30% of its government budget on defense while Ukraine's gross national product is far less than one half of what it was prior to the Russian invasion. As Ukraine will sooner or later collapse at the pace of fighting, Russia will change its objectives for the third time to achieve the following.

1. De-militarization of all of Ukraine and not just de-militarization of Ukraine of its NATO military presence.

2. De-nazification of all of Ukraine and not just de-nazification of the Donbas.

3. Takeover of most of the Kharkiv Oblast (state) to "liberate" the ethnic Russians as they did claim to have done in the Donbas. Many ethnic Russians in the Kharkiv Oblast, according to Russia, have complained about discrimination meted out to them by the Ukrainian government.

4. Extending the land bridge through the Mykolaiv Oblast to the Odesa Oblast. This would landlock Ukraine as it would totally cut of its access to the Black Sea.

5. The foregoing will cause Russia to state its new objective: the removal of the current Western Powers-controlled Kyiv regime.

Ukraine will collapse by next year if they continue to fight Russia in the attempts of taking over the territory that Russia annexed at its territory 1.5 years ago. When it does, Russia may have to go into the interior of Ukraine to stave off collapse of the Ukrainian people. Poland and Romanian may have to do the same in Western Ukraine. Once everything is stabilised in Ukraine, no one should be surprised if Poland and Romania also slice off chunks of Ukrainian territory for themselves.

Russia-Ukraine Conflict- The Consequences (Part One and Part Two)

Russia-Ukraine Conflict- The Consequences (Part One)

In early April 2022, six weeks after the Russian intervention, the heads of both Russia and Ukraine had a chance to reach permanent peace without Russia acquiring one extra inch of Ukrainian territory.

All Russia asked of Ukraine were these five conditions.

1. Ukraine must get rid of any and all foreign military presence on its soil. 2. Ukraine must never join NATO and must always be neutral. 3. Ukraine must recognize the independence sovereignty of the Donetsk People's Republic (DPR) and the Luhansk People's Republic (LPR) at least on a de facto basis. This means Ukraine would renounce all attempts to re-acquire the LPR and DPR as its sole purpose by military means. 4. Ukraine must recognize Crimea as part of the Russian Federation on a de jure basis. Since the Russian takeover of Crimea in 2014, Ukraine has not recognized Crimea as part of Russian territory even on a de facto basis. 5. Ukraine must protect the rights of Ukrainian citizens in Donbas who are of Russian ethnicity. Ukraine must allow these citizens to be taught in the language of their choice and they must also allow them to attend religious institutions of their choice. In other words, Russia wanted Ukraine to enforce most of the basic tenants of the Minsk 2 Accords.

United Kingdom's Prime Minister Boris Johnson told Ukrainian President V. Zelensky to not accept this peace deal with Russia. If Ukraine was truly a sovereign and independent nation, Zelensky would not have been influenced by Johnson and the UK. Since the U.K. actively collaborates with the USA Deep State, it certainly would appear that the USA also pressured Zelensky to not accept this totally reasonable peace deal with Russia. This conflict could, would, and should have ended in early April 2022.

Russia-Ukraine Conflict- The Consequences (Part Two)

Russian President V.Putin stated in the Tucker Carlson interview on February 8th of this year that Russia would settle for a permanent ceasefire with Ukraine if Ukraine did the following.

1. Ukraine must recognize the de facto status of the Russian Federation takeover of most of the Donbas, Zaporizhzhia, and Kherson regions as they have already given such recognition to the Russian takeover of Crimea, which took place ten years ago.

2. Ukraine must change its recognition status of Crimea as part of the Russian from de facto to de jure.

3. Ukraine cannot just freeze the conflict with Russia as Russia demands a peace treaty.

4. Ukraine must incorporate in its constitution that it cannot have a foreign military presence on its "soil". Russia insists that the Ukraine military be indigenously operated.

The following demands that V. Putin laid out are totally reasonable. These demands do not call for any type of "de-nazification" of the Ukrainian government. In addition these demands do not prohibit Ukraine from importing military weapons nor do they restrict Ukraine's military in any manner. Furthermore these demands do not at all ban Ukraine from joining the European Union if Ukraine chooses to do so. Finally Russia is not prohibiting any Western nation from giving Ukraine war guarantees if Russia were to invade in the future.

Yet Ukraine has declined this offer that Russia has been offering for over a year and a half. Russia has held back and has only fought defensively since "liberating" those territories in the summer of 2022. Russia chose to act with restraint because the Russian government have fraternal sentiments in their view of the Ukrainian people. Quite a few members of the Russian government have labeled this war as a civil war and not a war between disparate nations. Putin has often expressed his solidarity with the Ukrainian people as he has said that Ukrainians and Russians are the same people just living in two nations.

Because Ukraine has rejected this offer as it is presumed that the Collective West will not allow Ukraine to accept, Russia may have no alternative but to do the following. That following will be detailed in the next post. Since Ukraine due to the insistence of NATO nations demands that Russia abandon all territory it took from Ukraine (including Crimes), Russia will have no choice but to pursue the objectives outlined in the next post.

They have utmost contempt for the "Bolshevik hordes" from the East. The Azov Battalion (militia), the Armed Forces Of Ukraine, the Ukraine's secret police (SBU), and its regular police force in those regions in Ukraine strongly reflect this.They have utmost contempt for the "Bolshevik hordes" from the East.
