Today's Guest:

Phil Pozderac, Host of "POZitively Unconstitutional" on Republic Broadcasting Network, Saturday's at 10 a.m.-12 p.m. CDT.

On today's show we discuss the pros and cons of expatriating from federal or national citizenship of the United States of America and becoming a state national of the state/republic in which one was born or currently lives.

In 1868 Congress declared that "the right of expatriation is a natural and inherent right of all people, indispensable to the enjoyment of the rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness." Act of July 27, 1868, ch. 249, 15 Stat. 223, 223 (1868); see also 8 U.S.C. § 1481 note (2000) (quoting R.S. § 1999) (same). That declaration further stated that "any declaration, instruction, opinion, order, or decision of any officers of this government which denies, restricts, impairs, or questions the right of expatriation, is hereby declared inconsistent with the fundamental principles of this government." 15 Stat. at 224.
