Primacy Of The Citizens

All ten articles of the Bill Of Rights establish without question the primacy and authority of the People over the federal government.  While over the course of the last century and a half real progress has been made to establishing the legal equality of all persons without regard to race or gender.  The socalled Progressive movement has negated all real progress by reversing the relationship between the People and the governments of our nation and the states.  The federal and various state governments have assumed the role of master while the People are condemned to the status of livestock.
