UPDATE #10: CONTINENTAL CONGRESS 2009

WTP Rocks CO, SRO Crowd

Delegate Nomination System: Hours to go…

Next Week’s Meetings: Lansing, Cleveland/Akron, Rochester +


Ed. note
: This update regards the upcoming historic Continental Congress 2009 event to be held in Philadelphia directly across from Independence Hall.  As part of CC 2009, delegates selected by the People from each of the fifty states will convene to discuss the Government’s ongoing violations of the Constitution and strategies the People can employ to peaceably curtail the abuse.  Although these violations have been widely debated for years, it is the Government’s patent refusal to respond to any and all First Amendment Petitions for Redress that now compel the People to justly and actively resist the tyranny.

We strongly encourage our readers to review each of our
latest updates.  At a minimum, please be sure to read our “Summit Call and “Line in the Sand” web articles
which provide a good overview of the constitutional crisis and CC 2009 initiative.
 

 

Last night, Bob Schulz, Chairman WTP spoke in Denver Colorado about the historic Continental Congress 2009 event coming in March to Philadelphia. 

Here’s what one WTP county Coordinator and eyewitness at the Denver meeting had to say about last night's "standing room only" event:

We The People in Colorado don't mess around. The house was packed and STANDING ROOM ONLY as Bob Schulz kept the audience spellbound with a flood of information that will no doubt spread like wildfire. 

The events of the night included prayer, the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag, an introduction to educational tools produced on DVD by none other than James Madison (yes, related!) for The Wake Up Project. Over 300 DVDs were given out and well received. The very capable David Justice, the State Coordinator even had a live band performing patriotic music and song to start the meeting on a god note. His presentation alone would have made attending worthwhile. 

Mr. Schulz' presentation lasted about an hour and a half, but most folks stayed for the question and answer period after the meeting, and discussions didn't end until nearly 11:00 PM. 

People from nearly every county of the State were there and at least 20 volunteered to help with the progress of the movement in an official capacity. It appears that Colorado will have no difficulty finding Delegates for the Constitutional Congress 2009 which will occur the first week in March. 

The energy in the room was electrifying as citizens caught on to the idea that there really was hope, and a workable plan to restore our country and its governing body to the Constitutional rule of law our forefathers established for this great nation long ago. As Bob carefully placed each piece of the puzzle into place, Colorado citizens got the view of the whole picture like never before. We The People of Colorado are unable to express our heartfelt gratitude to the great man who visited us this night, and showed us REAL hope for a future for our children and grandchildren, and nation. 

It is obvious to this writer that a snowball has been sent rolling down the mountain here, and the ensuing avalanche will be unstoppable and will change the face of the hillside as it goes. 

The train is moving folks. Get on board or get left behind, but don't be caught in front of this one, it will not stop and you will get run over. Lead, follow, or get out of the way. The revolution is on!!!!

Here's a photo from last night's event:

The CO team arranged for live entertainment, name tags with attendee's county identified to spur personal interaction, and were well prepared to welcome and sign folks in as hundreds entered the standing room only event.

Bob Schulz passed on his delighted thanks for the superb planning and execution of the Denver event and extends his kudos for a “job – very well done,” to the Colorado WTP team.
 

Online Delegate Nomination System:
Roll-out Imminent


The WTP technical staff is running the new on-line delegate nomination system through its final “tests and tweaks.”  Individuals will be able to nominate either themselves or another individual beginning sometime Friday or Saturday.  When available, a link to the nomination system will be displayed on both the top of WTP Foundation home page and the CC 2009 meeting schedule page along with a link to instructions on how to use the secure nomination system.

Nominees are again urged to prepare and carefully edit (using a word processor) a short public professional/qualifications statement, a brief public personal statement, and if deemed necessary, a brief (private) personal statement that will not be made public and will only be accessible by a limited number of WTP designees in helping evaluate an individual’s fitness and circumstances as a Delegate Nominee to the Philadelphia proceedings. 

Nominees are also reminded that the on-line nomination system requests a small “head and shoulders” graphic of each nominee.  Potential nominees should prepare such a graphic or contact someone locally who can be of appropriate assistance.

After a review by WTP, individuals judged qualified to participate in the Nominee election process will have their public information publicly displayed on their state’s main database-driven WTP Congress web page. 

During the actual proceedings of the CC 2009, these same state web pages will also serve as a conduit for daily news briefings by the chosen Delegates.
 

CC 2009 Power Point Available 

One of our supporters has made available a short, to-the-point PowerPoint presentation about the Continental Congress 2009 initiative.  The presentation provides a relatively minimal, but straightforward exposure to the historical quotations and profound concepts of Liberty driving CC 2009.  Supporters are urged to download the .ppt presentation and distribute it and/or exhibit it publicly at supporter gatherings.
