3,000+ Mini-POTUSs, But With Greater Powers

One sees different numbers. The best one I’ve got is 3,083 Sheriffs in America, of whom at least 98%, or a minimum of 3,021 are elected.

2) As you dive into the history, you rapidly discover that the Office of the Sheriff (NOT the Sheriff's Department) has been pilloried over the fact of its political nature. That a Sheriff must fight to win election has been poo-pooed by the elite in our nation.

3) As a student of The Left, and of Communism and its agenda, it never crossed my mind that the Constitutional nature of the Office of the Sheriff had placed it on their hit list. That is, before this very week. I now realize the Office has been under continuous attack.

4) My main new influence is a leader named Sheriff Mack. We'll talk about him and his work a great deal in coming conversations. Today's source is, so far, the only book on the history of the Office itself I've yet found. Our author is William Vance Bowker.

5) Bowker tells us: "In the United States today, of the 3083 sheriffs, approximately 98 percent are elected by the citizens of their counties or parishes. They are the only head of a law enforcement agency which is elected and answers directly to the voters."

6) "The Sheriff is the lawful Chief Executive Officer and highest Peace Officer of the entire County in which he or she was elected.

"​Within his or her jurisdiction, the Sheriff has more power and authority than the Governor and the President of the United States!"

7) How so? How is a Sheriff more powerful than Governor or POTUS? The logic is simple. Presidents and Governors do not arrest people, enforce the law, run the prisons, investigate people, etc. But there's another power that is nothing short of amazing.

8) "The Sheriff has the power to deem a law or regulation unconstitutional and therefore invalid."

In our Federal system, this power is reserved to the Supreme Court. At the county level, it is the Sheriff, him- or herself alone who enjoys this vast, great power.

9) If you know me, you know I live by the law of confession. It is more than good for the soul, it leads to new, better behavior. I sadly confess I have never voted for any county official in my life to date. I don't even know how, yet. That's about to change. Fast.

10) I live in Albemarle County, VA. Our County Office of the Sheriff has been neutered. Long before my family and I relocated here, all law enforcement functions were removed. It is still elected, but it is just a supernumerary, a functionary office, here.

11) No matter. I still have to learn which offices in our county are elected, and I will learn how to vote, properly, right here in my own county for the first time in my adult life. I pledge to become an informed local voter.

12) The mission is larger than our county, to be sure. And, to that end, here is the list of surrounding counties:

1) Rockingham
2) Greene
3) Orange
4) Louisa
5) Fluvanna
6) Buckingham
7) Nelson
8) Augusta

13) It is on me to discover which of these counties have serious Offices of the Sheriff, who will live up to their Constitutional powers, who will safeguard the very existence of Constitutional law and order within their jurisdictions. I shall.

14) I must share the logic that drives my mission. To begin, a landslide election was stolen in 2020. It boggles the mind, but it is true. How did this happen? The simple answer is this. The power of the DC Swamp includes corrupt judges throughout the land, up to the SCOTUS.

15) Meditating on this extraordinary evil that has infested America, I found the following simple statement:

#HonestJudges

Had judges been honest, there would be no thief resident in the Oval Office.

16) There are obviously dishonest judges sitting at every level of our land. State Supreme Courts are replete with them. Follow it on down. Where can we have an impact? Locally. We can root out corrupt local judges. Now that's a mission I can envision.

17) My vision was based on small, high performance teams of 9 or fewer local members, in every county in America. I envisioned them empowered by Master Sun Tzu. Seriously. What I had no vision of, until this week, was a local partner such as the County Sheriff.

18) Yes, I discovered the hidden powers of the County Sheriff some months ago. Still, I did not truly understand its significance and do not even yet. Study must follow upon study. Ideas must be informed by practitioners. I must come to know them, these Sheriffs. I shall.

19) You do not need to wait for me. Nor do you need to join the CSPOA as I have. You might wish to, but you don't need to. You can begin to study your own county's Office of the Sheriff right now. I say you must. If, unlike me, you're already a local voter, honor to you!

20) If, like me, you are not an informed local voter, make the pledge as I have. Become one. My local Office of the Sheriff is NOT a Constitutional Officer. That means I have 8 surrounding offices to get to know. Most likely, yours is. Get to know it. Support it. Save America.
