First statement by the officer should be, "Sir, the reason I stopped you...", then ask for DL, registration and insurance papers. A few days ago, somebody posted a link to a blog of a class by a defense lawyer. It advocated using your fifth amendment right to silence. All you are required is to give the above info. Any information you offer, just opens up the officer's chance to pursue other matters. Best to just keep your mouth shut. "Why am I being stopped, officer?" "Would you like to see my DL?" That's enough. I have determined this. If stopped, and I get out of the car, I will lock the door as I do. If I remain in the car, the doors will be locked, window rolled down. If the officer asked me to get out, I will do so, but lock the car as I do. NOW THEN. He can not forceably enter the car and needs a search warrant to do so. In Missouri, and many other states, you can have CCW placed on your DL... or you can get a separate ID for CCW. I chose the latter. No sense in advertising and giving the officer more than necessary. I used to be polite and nice. Not anymore. We give away far too much information and the officer often takes advantage of that. I do believe we have a serious problem in our schools, both lower and higher education. A student should have a working understanding of the constitution by the time he graduates. A college student should know even more, enough to protect his rights. And a lawyer, which many apparently don't, should know it frontward, backward and sideway, and be defenders of the people's rights.

If they do, it is most likely a politically correct viewpoint. George Washington in 1796 said "A primary object...should be the education of our youth in the science of government" The power under the constitution will always be in the people. It is intrusted for certain defined purposes, and for a certain limited period, to representatives of their own choosing; and, whenever it is executed contrary to their interest, or not agreeable to their wishes, their servants can and undoubtedly will be recalled.

One time for driving with an expired inspection and once for driving with my parking lights on instead of the headlights. The time with the expired sticker, I really though that the inspection center put on the wrong date on the sticker and the officer asked if he could look at the the sticker inside my truck. The second time with the parking lights on, the officer realized that I made an honest mistake, and said he had to run my ID through the computer because it was SOP on all stops. I have met some cocky cops in my time but by and large they are professional and I am glad they are around.

What they do teach is a simple memorization of the Constitution, but not the meaning of each and every Article. And, when you go on to college, you really need to "specialize" in the study of the government in order to understand how it should work and the dichotomy of how it really works. Again, I restate that what is needed is for the common man to usurp the powers that currently exist in our local, State, and Federal governments. Then, and only then, will we be protected under the Constitution. So, now for the "say what you mean and mean what you say" portion of my sermon. Enfield should appreciate this as I have insisted that "we the people" are ultimately to blame if we sit idly by during all controversies only to become involved in those we deem important. It is very evident to the nation as a whole that Illinois has an "ethics" problem in its political structure. And, from inside the State, it does not look much improved even after impeaching a Governor. Also, the State is in a fiscal dilemma in that it is $9 Billion short of balancing the budget, and appears that the legislature will borrow that money to get by for another year (elections coming up in 2010 and no one wants to be responsible and solve the problem.) So, we come to this point. I assure you, I have never been in politics before with the exception of running for a school board position (non-partisan). So now I am doing what I have been saying. Over the course of the last few days I have been putting together a loose "grassroots" organization and have made an un-official announcement that I will be an Independent Candidate for the office of Governor of the State of Illinois. One small step for me, one giant step for the common man. Hopefully, there are others here in Illinois and some of you in your own States that will take similar steps. After what do you have to lose ? Nothing other than an election. What do you have to gain ? Keeping all candidates focused on the issues at hand. So, I guess this is it. I probably won't get to this forum much after this week for about the next year, but I am practicing what I preach.

I have run for public office twice, some yaers ago. Once for school board, and once for County Commissioner. At the time, the three Commissioners had been in office for too long, as nobody else would run. That particular year there was an uprising, and I think 8 different candidates ran for the 3 positions. We unseated two of the incumbents. Nothing much changed though. At that low level, the hands are tied most of the time by State and Fed regulations that cannot be violated if you want the county to survive. Two of my friends now hold those offices, and it is getting worse every year. The power under the constitution will always be in the people. It is intrusted for certain defined purposes, and for a certain limited period, to representatives of their own choosing; and, whenever it is executed contrary to their interest, or not agreeable to their wishes, their servants can and undoubtedly will be recalled.

At first I thought, "He doesn't stand a snowball chance", then reminded myself that a professional wrestler was elected governor and a comedian was just confirmed for US Senate. So why not a landscape entrepenuer? You've got as much chance as they did if you can get some backing and organization. Independent? I had been thinking about posting a thread asking you which third line party would be best. I'm wondering if the Constitution Party has much credibility, enough to become a viable force.

As for the "snowball chance", I know what you are saying. I've got a lot of people saying that, but I've also got a lot of votes lined up and am working through contacts into the Chicago area. Hope to get a foothold there, even as much as I dislike what Chicago politicians do to the rest of the State, it appears that even Chicago residents are fed up with Illinois politics as usual. So, if I can show that I am not a professional politician, I may just be able to melt that snowball. If nothing else, at least I can get people to thinking about what is going on here. After all, what do I have to lose ? Nothing more than an election for an office that I don't hold.
