Federation of States - June 9, 2004 - - The Federation of States sadly and yet proudly offers our tribute and thanks to President Ronald Reagan as we watch his funeral possession in Washington, D.C. And we, like millions of other Americans whether Canadian, U. S., Confederate or even Central and South Americans, also admire and love the great first lady, Nancy Reagan who is accompanying her late husband in his final hours before the nation.

Indeed, Ronald Reagan was by far the most anti-communist president since President Jefferson Davis of the Confederate States of America who opposed the Communist revolution against the United States in 1861-1865 perpetrated by the Marxist Abraham Lincoln. The programs and type of local rule State’s Rights government of a Confederacy of independent State Republics is by far the most nearly opposite type of government to a highly centralized Communist or Fascist government which is the reason that Karl Marx and his hundreds of thousands of Socialist followers hated the Confederacy and openly and physically supported the Federal Union onslaught against the free Southern Nation of the Confederate States of America lovingly called “Dixie.”

Besides President Jefferson Davis of the CSA, Ronald Reagan’s programs and beliefs were also similar to those of President Thomas Jefferson, one of our esteemed founding fathers. Reagan did a mighty work in trying to reverse decades of reconstructionist socialism and renew our direction back towards private enterprise, less centralization for more local control. He also lead our nation back into a military superiority arms race that bankrupted the U.S.S.R. which Reagan called “the Evil Empire”. If we had enjoyed another 16 years of similar Reagan type policies our country would have been well on the way back towards what the founding fathers had envisioned rather than the headlong plunge we are taking today towards the godless New World Empire and World government.

The programs of the Federation of States and the Southern Independence Party are in line with those of Ronald Reagan, Jefferson Davis and Thomas Jefferson, all anti Federalists and pro-freedom. Rest in peace President Reagan and thank you.- - Vance Beaudreau
