The following draft declaration was written by Peter Bove:


Prelude
In light of the 30 plus State Sovereignty Resolutions being filed with the Federal Government, I am concerned with the possibility of the states breaking apart through secession having this nation fracture into hostile camps. In response I have composed a 2nd Declaration of Independence. I firmly and passionately believe that the only way to defeat tyranny of the New World Order now roaring at top speed from the Federal Government into our lives is for all 50 States to reunite and in a 2nd Continental Congress reunite to defend the Constitutional principals of Liberty and Freedom reiterated in point within this the 2nd Declaration of Independence.
Seceding isn’t the solution.
It is not the other States who are the enemy;
it is the Federal Government.

I ask that if you agree with the contents of this document to request of everyone you know, yourself included to make copies, write a cover letter and send to the Legislative Body and Governor of your state as well as to the Sheriff in your county. I also believe we could make this a chain email. Our fellow American Patriots, some at least, would be so inspired to get them out to their Governors, Legislators and Sheriff’s. It’s not too late
to recreate the America our founding fathers created.



2nd Declaration of Independence
[Original Adopted in Congress 4 July 1776]

The Unanimous Declaration of the 50 re-united states of America


When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and of nature's God entitle them,
a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should
declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

In order to honor and uphold the original intent of the Declaration in light of the astounding parallels for need of this the 2nd Declaration to the original all that is once again relevant to restore
Liberty and Freedom of for and to the People remains.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, a war known as The American Revolutionary War, was fought and successfully set into enactment law known as The united states Constitution, the supreme law of this Constitutional Republic based on Democratic principals in full recognition of the fact that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. That to secure these rights our government was instituted among men deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. Not the reverse, which is now largely  the case and in fact the primary impetus for this declaration.

That whenever any form of government becomes destructive to these ends, it is the right of the People including each sovereign Individual to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness as defined by absolute goodness in the eyes of their Creator. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shown that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses, usurpations and refusals to respond to Petitions for Redress of grievances these violations of the Constitution evinces a conspiracy to transition our Constitutional Republic to a pure democracy, and to strip us of our Liberties and reduce us to serfdom under absolute despotism, it is the right of the People to alter the Government, pro-actively, non-violently with critical mass and to provide new guards for their future security.

Such is once again the patient sufferance of these 50 States; but especially to the People, more so each sovereign Individual, who reside legally within them, and such is now the necessity, which constrains them to alter their present system of government. Specifically the federal government The history of the present federal government is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over these states by attempting to usurp sovereignty and incorporate them first under The North American Union and eventually under a one-world fascist/socialist government it refers to as the New World Order. The federal government is subservient to the States and all government is subservient to We the People.  The federal government has infringed on OUR RIGHTS and has committed many usurpations of power against the States and We the People. To prove this, let facts be submitted to a candid world.

The offenses presented comprise but a fraction of all egregious offenses upon the People to be exacted but remain beyond sufficient to weight the need for the recreation of these united states of America in full allegiance with the original intent of it’s inception under the Constitution.

WHEREAS, Through actions such as the so-called Civil War (it was really The War Between the States) when the rightful states of each American republic were subverted by force and the operations of law that were established by the insidious 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution & the Act of 1871 prior to but especially since 1913 with the enactment of the Federal Reserve Act by the federal government whereby a consortium of international bankers in the form of a private banking cartel took control of the issuance of American currency and the regulation of the value thereof, the federal government has refused its assent to the principals and the laws within the original united states Constitution, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good. A direct consequence of these actions of a privately owned central bank, the abandonment of the gold standard
and a debt-based fiat dollar has resulted in economic catastrophe.

  WHEREAS, The 10th Amendment in the Constitution of the united states writ here "The powers not delegated to the united states by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people." defines the total scope of federal power as being that specifically granted by the united states Constitution and no more; The federal government has steadily and stealthily to the notice for too long of many the people of these great States sought to usurp the power of the people at the behest of international bankers in order to form a New World Order in defiance of the Life, Liberty and pursuit of Happiness of the People. 

  WHEREAS It has invaded foreign lands (inaccurately yet commonly referred to as wars) without a declaration of war by Congress as per the supreme law of the land. - Nations unconstitutionally invaded in partnership often with other nations include, endless armed
Middle East conflicts, Korea Vietnam Iraq (Desert Storm) Afghanistan, Panama, Grenada,
and Iraq again in 2003 to the present day.

As well the federal government has waged a war on terrorism, which is a futile engagement as the stated objective is one that can never be won through efforts of war,
causing it a nature of perpetual existence to burden the people.

WHEREAS, in direct defiance and betrayal of the principals expressed in Amendment IV writ here The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched,
and the persons or things to be seized. Deprivations of privacy and
an emerging police state via the “USA Patriot Act” has resulted

WHEREAS, despite the fact that the 16th Amendment was never ratified by all 48 States at the time of it’s supposed inception and as it is an un-apportioned tax the federal government under the guise of the internal revenue service has unconstitutionally imposed direct taxes on American labor from wages and salaries further placing a burden of existence on the people
and contributing to the present economic catastrophe.

WHEREAS, In direct defiance of the principals expressed in Amendment II writ here A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed. The federal government has resolved and presently campaigns to place infringements on the right to keep and bear arms including prohibitions of type
or quantity of arms or ammunition; of the People.

WHEREAS, The current administration has resolved to require involuntary servitude, or governmental service other than a draft during a declared war, or pursuant to,
or as an alternative to, incarceration after due process of law.

WHEREAS, At present we are subject upon the failure of Congress to defend the Constitution, a president who refuses to produce evidence establishing his status as a natural born
Citizen as required by the Constitution.

Among these and many other crucial offenses and acts of high treason, here listed in less detail include NAFTA, The NAU, the Fed/Treasury bailouts, The Stimulus Package (so called) uncontrolled borders & immigration, and electronic voting – proven to be subject to fraud.

 In every stage of these oppressions we have petitioned for redress in the most humble terms: our repeated petitions have been answered only by repeated injury. Numerous resolutions having been presented to the Federal government by many State General Assemblies without response or result from Congress or the federal government. And the most grievous injury: A servant government that refuses, at every turn, to be held accountable – in any way - by failing to respond to the People’s repeated First Amendment Petitions for Redress of Grievances.

As James Madison said in the Federalist Papers, No. 45, "The powers delegated by the proposed Constitution to the federal government are few and defined. Those which are to
remain in the State governments are numerous and indefinite."

As American Patriots in full agreement with all the principals and law defined in the organic Constitution and in good conscience many having sworn oaths to defend the Constitution We cannot allow the federal government legally defined as
THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
(corporation) and it’s Judicial appointees to continue to usurp
state sovereignty
for then we too, by virtue of complicity will be guilty of treason.

We, therefore, the citizens of the reunited states of America, in a 2nd General Congress, assembled, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the name, and by the authority of the good people of these States, solemnly publish and declare, that these united states are, and of right ought to continue to be free and independent states; that they are absolved from all allegiance to the federal government, and that all political connection between them and the federal government an entity separated from the states by virtue of the Act of 1871, is and ought to be totally dissolved; and that as free and independent states, they have full power to levy war, conclude peace, contract alliances, establish commerce, and to do all other acts and things which independent states may of right do, including the right to arrest and hold to trial by jury in order to
establish crimes of Treason which may have been committed by members of the
federal government including those living members who no longer hold office.

Further recreate a new federal government per the Constitution. Replace through fair elections all members no longer available to serve the people by virtue of their imprisonment due to the discovery of acts of treason, including the presidency. And for the support of this declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other
our lives, our fortunes and our sacred honor.
