WHEREAS THE FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE UNITED STATES CONSTITUTION PROVIDES:
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
BE IT RESOLVED THAT:
WE, THE NINETY-NINE PERCENT OF THE PEOPLE of the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, in order to form a more perfect Union, by, for and of the PEOPLE, shall elect and convene a NATIONAL GENERAL ASSEMBLY to meet beginning on July 4, 2012 in the City Of Philadelphia.
Election of Delegates:
Between now and May 4, 2012, the People, consisting of all American citizens who have reached the age of 18, regardless of party affiliation and voter registration status, shall elect Two Delegates, one male and one female, by direct vote, from each of the existing 435 Congressional Districts to represent the People at the NATIONAL GENERAL ASSEMBLY in Philadelphia convening on July 4, 2012. The office of Delegate shall be open to all American citizens who have reached the age of 18.
Meeting of the Congress and Deliberation:
At the NATIONAL GENERAL ASSEMBLY, the 870 Delegates shall set forth and vote upon a broad PLATFORM and PETITION OF GRIEVANCES to be submitted to all members of Congress, The Supreme Court and President and each of the political candidates running in the nationwide Congressional and Presidential election in November 2012.
This PLATFORM and PETITION OF GRIEVANCES shall be non-partisan and address the critical issues now confronting the United States People and will be voted upon by the 870 Delegates in consultation with the 99%.
The PLATFORM and PETITION OF GRIEVANCES voted upon by the Delegates MAY or MAY NOT include the following: [list grievance]
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVLED that IF the PLATFORM and PETITION OF GRIEVANCES approved by the 870 Delegates of the NATIONAL GENERAL ASSEMBLY in consultation with the PEOPLE, are not acted upon and implemented to the satisfaction of the Delegates of the NATIONAL GENERAL ASSEMBLY within ONE YEAR of presentment of the PLATFORM and PETITION OF GRIEVANCES, said Delegates shall demand the immediate RESIGNATION of ALL 435 members of the United States House of Representatives, ALL 100 members of the United States Senate, ALL 9 members of the United States Supreme Court and the President of the United States.
The NATIONAL ASSEMBLY will then demand new elections to be held within 99 days of the resignation demand.
Upon implementation and satisfactory enactment of the NATIONAL ASSEMBLY'S PLATFORM and PETITION FOR THE REDRESS OF GRIEVANCES, said body shall DISSOLVE.
Sounds good, a global GA would be even better - aided by telecoms, maybe in a year's time we'd also have the tech to enable it... I don't understand why it's only US citizens though: maybe it should allow also non-citizens to go too, if people vote them. Would be much more inclusive and it's not like they are deciding - just representing.
Has this proposal been voted on yet by the general assembly? If not, when will this be voted on? I would like to be there for the discussion. Thank you.
The OWS people don't wan to have anything to do with us
This is an abandonment of two central principles behind this movement:
1) This is representative democracy, as opposed to direct democracy. 2) This movement has challenged the legitimacy of governing institutions as corrupt. Petitioning to these very institutions reinstates their legitimacy.
This is a perfect example of an abuse of the autonomy of the Working Groups, where a conservative with some troubling history has tried to latch onto the movement to hijack it to serve his (routinely failed) ends.
Back off, Lustig -- go back to Harvard and keep training the 1% to rule over us and working for Republican supreme court justices!
Exactly, and better yet, create your own National Online Congress, for many more people will come to your side when you are proactive (for “new” Business & Government solutions), instead of reactive (against “old” Business & Government solutions), which is why what we most immediately need is a comprehensive “new” strategy that implements all our various socioeconomic demands at the same time, regardless of party, and although I'm all in favor of taking down today's ineffective and inefficient Top 10% Management System of Business & Government, there's only one way to do it – by fighting bankers as bankers ourselves; that is, using a Focused Direct Democracy organized according to our current Occupations & Generations. Consequently, I have posted a 1-page Summary of the Strategically Weighted Policies, Organizational Operating Structures, and Tactical Investment Procedures necessary to do this at:

because we need 100,000 “support clicks” at AmericansElect.org to support a Presidential Candidate -- such as any given political opportunist you'd like to draft -- in support of the above bank-focused platform.
Most importantly, remember, as cited in the first link, that as Bank Owner-Voters in your 1 of 48 "new" Business Investment Groups (or "new" Congressional Committees) you become the "new" Congress replacing the "old" Congress according to your current Occupation & Generation, called a Focused Direct Democracy.
Therefore, any Candidate (or Leader) therein, regardless of party, is a straw man, a puppet; it's the STRATEGY – the sequence of steps – that the people organize themselves under, in Military Internet Formation of their Individual Purchasing & Group Investment Power, that's important. In this, sequence is key.
Why? Because there are Natural Social Laws – in mathematical sequence – that are just like Natural Physical Laws, such as the Law of Gravity. You must follow those Natural Social Laws or the result will be Injustice, War, etc.
The FIRST step in Natural Social Law is to CONTROL the Banks as Bank Owner-Voters. If you do not, you will inevitably be UNJUSTLY EXPLOITED by the Top 10% Management Group of Business & Government who have a Legitimate Profit Motive, just like you, to do so.
Consequently, you have no choice but to become Candidates (or Leaders) yourselves as Bank Owner-Voters according to your current Occupation & Generation.
So please JOIN the 2nd link so we can make our support clicks at AmericansElect.org when called for, at exactly the right time, by an e-mail from that group, in support of the above the bank-focused platform. If so, then you will see and feel how your goals can be accomplished within the above strategy as a “new” Candidate (or Leader) of your current Occupation & Generation.
Let's get this conversation going. It's one of the few ideas that can work. How do we make this happen???? REPOST this, people. Put it out there on Facebook, Twitter, your email.... however you can. Much Peace and Love to everyone standing together for a better tomorrow, today. You are all beautiful!
