Step 1 to Real Change: EXPOSE America's Huge Treasonous Problem; PROMOTE We the People's Total Solution

Last revised 11.21.11

During their campaign to gain power over the American public and take wealth from the American public -- launched in 1980, planned a decade earlier, and intensifying today with no letup in sight -- consolidated American wealth-and-power (the American Right) aided by their media machine breached the national/homeland security of, and wage war on, America's self-governance and five kinds of public good. They corrupt America's democracy, law, and justice as needed to grow their wealth and power at the expense of the present and future public. They morphed America's government of/by/for We the People into government of/by/for Wealth and Power. They heist vast financial wealth from America. They inflict massive social/economic/bodily collateral harm in America. They block "common defence" against their war on America's self-governance and public good. They erased from America's public education and public mind the #1 reason for the American Revolution stated in the Declaration of Independence (Britain's refusal to assent to laws "most wholesome and necessary for the public Good") -- and they erased America's supreme moral purpose ("establish"/"insure"/"provide"/"promote"/"secure" the five kinds of public good "[for] ourselves and our Posterity" listed in the first sentence of the US Constitution) -- in order to prevent America from realizing how their assaults on public good (including on myriad forms of "Justice" and "general Welfare" and "Liberty") are crimes against America. They trick America to help them. They blind America to their wrongs. That huge treasonous problem -- war by the American Right and their media machine (including the news media) on America's self-governance and five kinds of public good -- began to flare up three decades ago and worsens today. The surefire total solution has existed for more than two centuries and awaits to be unleashed. Below is the first step:

To begin to defend America against the mounting assaults on democracy and common good by American wealth-and-power and their media machine, to begin to restore and grow and secure principled self-governance and bountiful public good in America, to begin to end harm to other nations by American wealth-and-power and thereby end blowback against America, EXPOSE America's huge treasonous problem and PROMOTE the full solution required by the US Constitution. Do it as an act of national/homeland defense of America's self-governance and five kinds of public good. Merely by exercising freedom of speech and of the press. Merely by exercising the right to peaceably assemble and to petition for redress of grievances. It is Step 1 to Real Change.

The PROBLEM to expose. America's Self-Governance (fair democratic processes and true representative governance, our democracy) and America's Five Kinds of Public Good (the "Justice" through "Liberty" for "ourselves and our Posterity" listed in the first sentence of the US Constitution since 1787, the common-good bedrock of our "more perfect Union" and the American Dream, the moral purpose of our democracy which happens to vastly exceed the human-to-human goodness required by the Ten Commandments) -- the very self-governance and very public good that We the People won and built commencing on July-4-1776 -- are under intensifying covert assault by consolidated American wealth-and-power: the illegal fusion of wealth/corporate power, federal executive power, federal legislative power, federal judicial power, spy/blackops/police/military power, red/blue political-party power, mass-media power, and Christian-Right religious power into a dangerous unbridled power, the American Right. In 1980 they began in earnest to consolidate and build their forces, gain power over the public, and take wealth from the public, all as stealthily as possible. They began to plan it in 1971. They created an advertising/PR/news/entertainment print/radio/TV/film/web media machine to hide their wrongdoing from America, promote themselves as good for America, and manipulate citizens to help them dominate and plunder America (and other nations) and get away with it. They breached the national/homeland security of America's self-governance and all five kinds of public good; to succeed they disabled the entire national/homeland security system of multiple safeguards the Framers wired into our Constitution and Bill of Rights to prevent domestic wealth-and-power from ever consolidating into an unbridled power and then harming America's self-governance and public good (three of those safeguards they disabled: separation of powers; separation of church and state; freedom of speech and of the press to foster and protect America's democracy and common good, especially the freedom to expose and indict and call for action against Americans who harm America's democracy and common good). They corrupted and rigged America's democracy to serve them at our expense: no matter who we vote for, red or blue, as time marches on they gain more and more wealth and power and we lose more and more self-governance and public good (more so when we elect reds, less so when we elect blues). They subverted America's government of/by/for We the People back into the government of/by/for Wealth and Power we rose up against in 1776. They take financial wealth from the public at the rate of trillions of dollars a year, by means of the giant wealth-mining system they set up and operate. They take well-being wealth from the public, especially "Justice" and "general Welfare" and "Liberty" of many types. They inflict collateral homeland death at the rate of more than fifty 9/11s a year. They block "common defence" against their war on America's self-governance and five kinds of public good. They trick the public and indoctrinate our new generations to help them acquire more and more wealth and power at the expense of others by whatever means necessary. During their pursuit of wealth-and-power happiness they loot more money, inflict more suffering, and take more lives than terrorists ever have and ever could, hot news they keep out of the news. All of it allowed and some of it abetted by their National Security and Homeland Security. All of it aided by their White House, Congress, Supreme Court, red/blue political parties, Christian-Right supporters, and media machine. All of it "Treason" as defined by Article 3 Section 3 of the US Constitution. The 'patriotic' and 'moral' American Right is a modern domestic form of the consolidated-wealth-and-power enemy we indicted in our Declaration of Independence for waging war on self-governance and public good and then neutralized during the American Revolution.

The SOLUTION to promote. We the People, who by law have supreme power and are the government of America, carry out the Total Real Change called for by our "supreme Law of the Land": we defend America against the right-wing domestic enemy and we restore/grow/secure the self-governance and five kinds of public good they began waging war against soon after our 200th Fourth of July. First, to be able to unite and cooperate toward Total Real Change, we must understand the peril of and overcome the enemy's two forms of Divide-And-Conquer manipulation: Fragment The Problem, Fragment The Public. Those two stealthy manipulations 1] trick us to focus on just bits and pieces of their total war-on-self-governance/war-on-public-good wrongdoing one momentary dot at a time and never connect them, to never see the persisting big picture of who they are and the wrong they commit, to never detect their security breach of and mounting attacks on all facets of America's self-governance and public good, to never perceive the need to sound the alarm and mobilize America and execute national/homeland defense against them; 2] fracture the general public, and fracture the national/public interest (America's self-governance and five kinds of public good), into myriad demographic segments and political niches/markets and self-interests that compete and clash; 3] destroy "domestic Tranquility" (such as by pitting conservatives against liberals) to insure domestic discord and thereby cripple our ability to unite and cooperate to stop them and reverse the harm they inflict; 4] prevent us from seeing and solving the whole problem as successfully as America's founders did (consolidated wealth-and-power is waging war on self-governance and public good so unite and cooperate to stop it); 5] prevent United We Stand for our own self-governance and our own public good; and 6] assure Divided We Fall to their assaults on our democracy and our common good. Even well meaning pro-democracy/pro-common-good organizations, advocates, activists, journalists, and their websites and blogs have fallen victim to the right's two forms of Divide-And-Conquer manipulation, evident by how they practice and teach and spread Fragment The Problem, Fragment The Public and thereby assist the right when they fight the fight. Worry not. A powerful solution to America's whole treasonous problem has existed for more than two centuries. A big-picture full-solution democracy weapon/tool based on all that well-proven collective wisdom, CivicPowerUSA.org, outlines a plan and strategies for Total Real Change. During this American Revolution II -- a long-overdue major maintenance and tune-up of the America won by American Revolution I -- conservatives and liberals unite and cooperate, indict and neutralize the right-wing domestic enemy, and reestablish government of/by/for We the People. Note: conservatives and liberals (the vast majority of citizens) are rooted in the principled-self-governance and bountiful-public-good bedrock values of America ordained in our Constitution; right-wingers (at most 10% of the public), who disguise themselves as 'conservative' and their media machine as 'liberal,' are rooted in the enemy-of-1776 practice of dominating and plundering and inflicting harm without qualm, the very practice described by the "Abuses" and "Injuries" and "Usurpations" listed in the main section of our Declaration of Independence (the list fills half of the charter!), the very practice outlawed by our Constitution. The weapon/tool's four-element plan and political strategies come from our primal urges for justice, ancient survival wisdom, early American history, and arsenal of moral/legal firepower born out of the American Revolution: Declaration of Independence, US Constitution, and Bill of Rights. This wellspring of civic power awaits to be fully tapped into and unleashed. We can win more assuredly than after we declared the same kind of change on July-4-1776.

The Framers' worst nightmare has come true. A domestic enemy -- consolidated American wealth-and-power served and protected by their media machine, a modern domestic form of the consolidated wealth-and-power we declared independence from in 1776 -- since 1980 has breached the national/homeland security system the Framers wired into our Constitution in 1787 and Bill of Rights in 1791 to forever prevent such a domestic enemy from ever arising and then harming America's self-governance and public good. They dominate and plunder the public, just like unbridled wealth-and-power has done through the ages. During their resolute pursuit of more and more wealth and power for themselves at the expense of others by whatever means necessary they assault the self-governance and five kinds of public good won during the American Revolution, ordained in our Constitution, symbolized by our Flag, and produced by We the People during America's first two centuries. They use so much guile and stealth most Americans cannot see who they are, or detect their breach of America's national/homeland security, or perceive their intensifying war on America's self-governance and public good. They are winning big with feeble resistance and unwitting help from the well-armed public they are busily taking wealth and power from. A huge treasonous problem.

Worry not. There is a surefire total solution.

First, a summary of the domestic enemy and their sneak attack and secret war on America's self-governance and public good:

* In 1980, soon after America's Bicentennial, several domestic powers wisely kept separated in the past --- wealth/corporate power, federal executive power, federal legislative power, federal judicial power, spy/blackops/police/military power, red/blue political-party power, mass-media power, Christian-Right religious power --- began in earnest to consolidate into an unbridled power, take control of America, and extract wealth from America and We the People and our posterity. All as secretly as possible.

* That consolidated American wealth-and-power = the American Right = the right wing = the right = the domestic enemy (hereinafter often referred to as "they").

* Their resolve, efforts, and successes have grown over the past third of a century and escalate today with no letup in sight. In so doing they assaulted, and continue to assault, America's self-governance and full range of public good and therefore violated/violate our "supreme Law of the Land" in legal technicality and moral spirit.

* They do what consolidated wealth-and-power has done over the ages -- dominate and plunder the populace, wage war on self-governance and public good -- what the enemy of 1776 did as described in the document of dissent we celebrate every Fourth of July, what the Framers feared and tried to forever prevent with the national/homeland security system of multiple safeguards they wrote into our Constitution in 1787 and Bill of Rights in 1791.

* They erased our knowledge of that security system. The Framers understood and feared the wealth-and-power disease: wealth-and-power consolidates, inflicts harm on the public as it extracts wealth and power from the public, which incites the public to revolt and restore fairness (as during the American Revolution). To eternally ward off and suppress that dangerous political disease, the Framers inoculated America with multiple safeguards: Fair democratic processes and true representative governance to keep the disease in check and safely dormant. "[I]nsure domestic Tranquility" to maintain an undivided, undivisive We the People able and willing to unite and cooperate to fight the disease. "[P]rovide for the common defence" against the disease. "[N]o religious Test[s]" to prevent religion in public servants and in other members of the public trust from feeding the disease. Trial by jury as a direct citizen check against unjust arrest and prosecution, unjust courts, and unjust laws spawned by the disease. Separation of powers, and separation of church and state, to prevent separate components of wealth-and-power from ever consolidating and growing into the disease. Freedom of speech, and freedom of the press, to sound alarms about outbreaks of the disease and to rally citizens to fight the disease. Surely our experts in Constitutional law can cite other safeguards by the Framers. After the right wing and their media machine erased America's knowledge of this security system, they disabled every safeguard and completely breached the national/homeland security of America's self-governance and public good.

* In the early 1980s, by removing the Fairness Doctrine and public-service requirements from broadcasting, by weakening prohibitions against consolidation of media ownership, by melded advertising and public relations and journalism into deceptive and manipulative "communication" for serving clients instead of the public, they began to build up and power up their mass-media accomplice -- their advertising/PR/news/entertainment print/radio/TV/film/web media machine -- to help them heist wealth and power from the American public, and from other nations, and get away with it.

* In the mid 1980s they influenced reds and blues to join forces, evident by how the Republican Party and Democratic Party together created the Commission on Presidential Debates to lock out other parties from the nationally-televised Presidential debates and to tightly control the content of the debates. The CPD is a private corporation funded by wealth-and-power donors, not a federal commission as the public is led to believe. The Commission makes sure the #1 question about the #1 issue is never asked of a candidate: "How do you plan to stop and reverse America's growing loss of self-governance and five kinds of public good as required by our Constitution?"

* They morphed America's "principled government of/by/for We the People" into "corrupt and rigged government of/by/for Wealth and Power." They began in earnest a generation ago and did it so gradually and stealthily America never noticed.

* They brainwashed out of America the #1 reason for the American Revolution as stated by the first grievance listed in our Declaration of Independence: Britain's refusal to assent to laws "most wholesome and necessary for the public Good." They did it to prevent us from realizing how their refusal to assent to laws most wholesome and necessary for just taxation and just finance and just healthcare and other forms of public good, and how their laws that take away public good such as laws that deregulate corporations and laws that transfer wealth from the public to the well-off, violate America to the core.

* They purged bare-basic understanding of America's self-governance and five kinds of public good from our public education and public mind. As a result, the general public and the public trust are now clueless about America's founding goal, national interest, public interest, core civic duty, secular moral code, and purpose of law: We the People create and give principled self-governance and five kinds of public good to our fellow citizens and posterity in accordance with our Constitution, vastly more human-to-human goodness than the Ten Commandments call for (which is easy to see when you place the first sentence of the US Constitution and the Ten Commandments side by side and actually read and compare the two). America is no longer aware of the five kinds of public good listed in the first sentence of the US Constitution. We the People no longer know that by law we are the government of America, that by law we are the "state," that by law we are supposed to foster and protect principled self-governance and bountiful public good including by neutralizing any domestic enemy attacking and hurting them, that by law we have supreme power to do so; including to nullify bad laws, laws NOT "made in Pursuance" of our Constitution, such as the many laws that benefit wealth-and-power at the expense of America's self-governance or public good (for example juries have the power and responsibility to do so); including to remove Supreme-Court justices who act against self-governance and public good (our Constitution instructs how to do it) and to overturn their rulings that harm self-governance and public good. We as a nation, including our US Military and Homeland Security, no longer know WHAT to defend against all enemies foreign and domestic: America's self-governance and America's five kinds of public good, all under intensifying covert assault by the treasonous domestic enemy for a third of a century so far. Assisted by their attacks on public education, and assisted by their media machine especially talk radio and cable news, they cleansed the very concept of "America" from America to render us helpless against them and to assure that we cannot even see the self-governance and five kinds of public good we lose as they heist our wealth and our power.

* They enlisted, empower, and finance a religious ally to help them heist wealth and power here and abroad and get away with it: the Christian Right. Whose religion, one-sixth the size of America's mainstream Christianity, is a pessimistic/aggressive/selfish/inhumane unChristlike brand of Christianity that emerged a century after 1776 and thus was not the compassionate altruistic Christianity of America's founders. Whose members want divine rule. Whose members want end times that will end the world including America and We the People and our posterity. Whose members want intensifying conflict and suffering here and abroad, especially in the Middle East, which they have faith will speed arrival of the end times they yearn for. Whose members condone and support the wealth/corporate right's dominate-and-plunder operations here and abroad and the resulting conflict, suffering, and death. Whose members -- as payment for that support -- are permitted to and receive funds to infiltrate their inhumane religion deeply into America including our leadership, law, justice, education, healthcare, tax codes, and military. Whose members thus oppose and act against America's founding moral code and national purpose: secular We the People build and secure principled self-governance and bountiful public good. By creating the wealth/corporate/religious alliance, the right boosted the membership size and electorate power of the right wing by fifty-fold.

* They covertly reversed a founding principle of our nation to reward and give power to that religion. In 1797 "[T]he government of the United States of America is not in any sense founded on the Christian religion" became "supreme Law of the Land" without controversy. Two centuries later a domestic form of the enemy of 1776 brainwashed away the words "not in any sense" to fool Americans to exercise and exalt God and Country.

* They have made sure that America's standard methods of good citizenship and active democracy --- reading and watching the news to stay informed, writing letters to the editor, blogging on the web, working on self-governance and common-good issues, whistleblowing in the public interest, engaging in principled dissent, advising our Senators and Congressperson, voicing concerns to the President, supporting a political party, voting during elections --- no longer work.

* They erased the duty and neutered the capacity of the government of America, We the People, to perform an essential government function needed for national/homeland defense and security of our self-governance and full range of public good: watch them like a hawk and keep them on a leash to restrain them from consolidating their powers, seizing control of our nation, and stealing from and inflicting harm on the public.

* They now freely take and hoard wealth and power from their own country and fellow citizens, and from other nations and their citizens, and in the process they hurt self-governance and public good here and abroad.

* They enact laws, issue court decisions, and execute police actions that help them take wealth and power from the public and hurt self-governance and public good.

* They transformed First-Amendment freedom of speech from a citizen tool for defending America's self-governance and public good into a right-wing weapon against America's self-governance and public good. They permit free speech by those who assault self-governance and public good -- especially 'free speech' in the form of briberous campaign contributing, unlimited wealth/corporate funding of political advertising, turncoat and deep-pocket lobbying, hate radio/TV, and right-slanted news. They suppress free speech by citizens and groups -- especially public-interest groups, whistleblowers, independent/investigative journalists, and PBS/NPR -- who try to foster and secure self-governance and public good. They brand whistleblowers as "terrorists" or "traitors" and strive to punish them for committing "terrorism" or "espionage." Much of this perilous corruption of our First Amendment -- from a citizen tool for serving and protecting America's self-governance and public good, into a right-wing assault weapon against America's self-governance and public good AND against its advocates and defenders -- was enabled and made legal by the Supreme Court they installed since 1980.

* They are rapidly building up police-state power to help them heist wealth and power from the public and prevent the public from slowing or stopping them.

* They silence and crush advocacy, and they pillory and punish advocates, of the principled self-governance and bountiful public good called for by our Constitution.

* They manufacture with their media machine, purchase with campaign contributions, ensure with laws, secure with court decisions, and force with police-state power the majority-is-right outcomes they want from the electorate and elected. America's new 'democracy.'

* They disabled the supreme power and supreme responsibility of We the People, and they corrupted and rigged all aspects of America's democracy, to accomplish this: no matter who we vote for -- red or blue -- as time marches on they gain more and more wealth and power at our expense and we lose more and more self-governance and public good. More so when we elect reds. Less so when we elect blues.

* They implant, using dishonest rigged democracy, a corrupt red/blue heart in Washington DC that pumps wealth and power out of the public and into the wealthy-and-powerful few.

* They breed out of the general public -- and out of the public trust -- the core wisdom and humanity needed to understand, care about, and live up to the moral code and national purpose ordained in the first sentence of our Constitution. That destruction of respect for others, personal and social responsibility, cooperation toward the common good, survival-correct perception and reasoning -- that destruction of root capacity for adult maturity, human integrity, good citizenship, worthy leadership -- that destruction of America's very first line of defense: core human ability to "provide for the common defence" against war on America's self-governance and public good -- is carried out by the entire wealth/corporate/religious right, especially by their media machine, and seems to be Job #1 for Rush Limbaugh and Glen Beck and their ilk.

* They altered the course of American democracy, American law, and American justice. From "produce and secure principled self-governance and bountiful common good for the present and future public." To "produce and secure more and more wealth and power for the few wealthy and powerful at the expense of the present and future public."

* They infused a new patriotism into America to expedite their extraction of wealth and power from the public. "Unrestrained capitalism is best for America" (of course they want free rein to dominate and plunder America). "Government is the problem" (of course "Government of/by/for We the People" -- during which we watch them like a hawk and keep them on a leash to restrain them from consolidating their powers, seizing control of our nation, and stealing from and hurting the public; during we tax them equitably and shepherd them to foster principled self-governance and bountiful public good -- is a "problem" for them).

* They suppress warning alerts about their danger and harm to our homeland, citizens, and posterity.

* They block "common defence" against their war on our financial wealth, well-being wealth, and self-governance power.

* They hide their wrongdoing and disguise themselves as good.

* They hurt self-governance and public good far more than foreign terrorists ever have and ever could. They brand those who expose their wrongdoing as "terrorists" and the disclosures as "terrorism." (Those disclosures of wrongdoing are similar to the "Facts [submitted] to a candid World" by our Declaration of Independence.)

* They trick Americans by the millions including churchgoers and our troops, and they indoctrinate and train our new generations, to aid them in all the above ways. Including to oppose laws "most wholesome and necessary for the public Good" such as laws that establish just taxation, just finance, and just healthcare.

* That is how American wealth-and-power gained power over the public and take wealth from the public, the Framers' worst nightmare come true. In 1787 and 1791 the Framers wired an extensive national/homeland security system of multiple supreme-law safeguards into our Constitution and Bill of Rights to prevent that nightmare from ever happening. Two centuries later the right wing served and protected by their media machine -- a domestic enemy far more cunning and corrupt than the Framers thought possible -- erased our knowledge of the system, overran every safeguard, and now rule and rob us like the enemy of 1776 did. We have a huge treasonous problem.

So promote the solution -- CivicPowerUSA.org, a democracy weapon/tool -- to concerned citizens and groups throughout America. It explains how to achieve Total Real Change. The four-element plan and political strategies come from our primal urges for justice, ancient survival wisdom, early American history, Declaration of Independence, US Constitution, and Bill of Rights.

Do it to expose the domestic enemy.

Do it to expose the huge moral/legal wrong they commit against America and We the People and our posterity, the full-spectrum treason their media machine assists and covers up. As they take and hoard wealth and power, they harm Self-Governance: fair democratic processes and true representative governance, our democracy. And they harm all Five Kinds of Public Good listed in the first sentence of our Constitution since 1787: equal "Justice" for all, "domestic Tranquility" necessary for unity and cooperation toward self-governance and public good, "common defence" of self-governance and public good including national/homeland defense and national/homeland security of all of it, "general Welfare" including its numerous social/economic and health/safety benefits, "Liberty" and its privacies and freedoms, all for "ourselves and our Posterity," the five-layer common-good bedrock of our "more perfect Union" and the American Dream, the official purpose and product of our democracy.

A sampling of their crimes to reveal to every citizen in America. They built up and operate a giant wealth-mining system and stealthily take our money, and our posterity's money, at the rate of trillions of dollars a year (explained in CivicPowerUSA.org). They stealthily take our lives at the rate of more than fifty 9/11s a year (explained in CivicPowerUSA.org), the homeland collateral damage they inflict during their unbridled pursuit of more and more wealth and power for themselves. That is, they drain financial lifeblood out of our present and future America, and they rain vastly more death on America than terrorists ever have and ever could, hot news they keep out of the news.

Do it to "provide for the common defence" -- to rebuild national/homeland defense and national/homeland security -- of our entire self-governance and five kinds of public good that consolidated American wealth-and-power and their media machine breached our national/homeland security of and began waging war against soon after our 200th Fourth of July.

Do it to alert America to the right's dangerous deceptions. Especially how they trick us to perceive the right wing as "conservative," their rigged capitalism as "free market," their unChristlike Christian Right as "moral," their right-wing media as "liberal," and their systematic plundering of our wealth and our power -- harming America's self-governance and five kinds of public good in the process -- as "lawful" and "patriotic" and "for the greater good." In reality, true conservatives and true liberals are rooted in our Constitution and Bill of Rights and want principled self-governance and the bountiful public good it produces just like the We the People of 1776 did -- the opposite of right-wingers, who are rooted in the ancient unfair practice of taking and hoarding wealth and power at the expense of others by whatever means necessary, who are resolutely executing the same two kinds of consolidated-wealth-and-power assaults that set off the American Revolution: waging war on self-governance; waging war on public good.

Do it to warn America about the right's two forms of Divide-And-Conquer manipulation that all concerned citizens and groups must learn to detect, rid themselves of, and ward off. 1] Fragment The Problem: the right wing and their media machine fracture the whole problem -- their total war-on-self-governance, war-on-public-good wrongdoing -- into myriad disconnected bits and pieces that quickly fade away (such as the hot news bites they orchestrate us to focus on and then quickly forget and never connect); they do it to prevent us from seeing the big picture of who they are, how immoral and unlawful they are, how they harm us, how extensively they harm us. 2] Fragment The Public: they fracture the general public -- and the entire national interest and public interest (which are the same: self-governance and public good) -- into myriad demographic segments and political markets/niches and self-interests and then foment those divisions to compete and clash (such as by pitting conservatives against liberals); they do it to replace "insure domestic Tranquility" with "insure domestic Discord," to prevent a united state of America, to cripple our ability to unite and cooperate to stop them and reverse the harm they inflict, to cause Divided We Fall to their conquering and plundering of America. They manipulate so effectively that when we fight the right we often aid the right to achieve Divided We Fall; even well meaning public-interest organizations, advocates, activists, and journalists have fallen victim to the two forms of Divide-And-Conquer manipulation, evident by how practice and spread Fragment The Problem, Fragment The Public (including on their blogs and websites) exactly as the right wants them to. The right wing and their media machine divide the massive civic power of We the People into tiny, competitive, divisive, impotent fragments of power so that each and every packet of effort toward a particle of Real Change is easy to block or crush or exploit for right-wing gain. They engineer and execute those two kinds of Divide-And-Conquer manipulation to weaken and destroy America's "common defence" and national/homeland security against them, to ensure that when we fight the right we instead undermine ourselves and assist the right, and above all to absolutely prevent us from seeing and solving the whole problem as successfully as America's founders did: consolidated wealth-and-power is waging war on self-governance and public good so unite and cooperate to stop it.

Do it to reveal how the domestic enemy and their accomplices committed and commit treason as defined by Article 3 Section 3 of the US Constitution: "Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort." Over the past generation they have levied war, and they continue to levy war with no letup in sight, against America's self-governance and five kinds of public good; their accomplices such as their media machine adhere to them and give them aid and comfort. That treason is vastly more dangerous and deadly to America than terrorism (which they breed, profit from, and make us fear so as to control and loot us). Stopping that treason is America's #1 defense and security imperative.

Do it to illuminate how We the People outnumber the treasonous domestic enemy by 10:1 to 500:1 to 500,000:1. To see it, zoom in on the foe from the wealth/corporate/religious foe-as-a-whole (the 10%), to the wealth/corporate core that enlisted and empowers and finances the Christian Right (the 0.2%), to the 537 elected reds and blues in Washington DC who consolidate the foe and give wealth and power to the foe as payment for cash and support from the foe (the 0.0002%).

Do it to marshal and arm conservatives and liberals, the vast citizen majority whose families and futures are being hurt by the right wing, to unite/cooperate and stop and reverse the right-wing assaults -- especially the assaults by the White House, Congress, Supreme Court, and news media -- on the self-governance and five kinds of public good that We the People won and built commencing on July-4-1776.

The US Constitution, in its first sentence, REQUIRES us to carry out Total Real Change. CivicPowerUSA.org, a democracy weapon/tool for Total Real Change, unveils our wellspring of civic power and illuminates how to wildly succeed.
