One of the most crucial ways New Hampshire can implement an attempt to retake her state from the clutches of corruption and tyranny is to train future elected officials, school board officials, and law enforcement in the New Hampshire state constitution.
In order to do so, the citizens of New Hampshire must also do so, like some have already, and set the example.
The US Federal Constitution reserves all powers not explicitly granted to the federal government to the states, obviously. Yet, it seems many of our well-intended officials either forgot or just seem aloof. I am not a lawyer or a Constitutional expert, however, one does not have to be to notice the excessive centralization of our federal government and disbursed layers of bureaucracy that US case law stomps on.
Each state also has its own constitution to protect the natural rights of its citizens and limit the powers of both the federal and state governments.
Though state constitutions derive their basic principles from the natural rights the US Constitution protects, each state is unique in its own accord in how they manage their state government while staying within the realm of protecting our inherent rights and Bill of Rights enshrined in the founding documents.

As a result, knowing and understanding the exact language of the New Hampshire Constitution, in my opinion, not only empowers NH citizens to more accurately and effectively challenge their government when they abuse their authority, it also empowers citizens to utilize resources and tools to mobilize grassroots efforts the US Federal Constitution would not specify to accurately and effectively propel the submission of challenges to any form of usurpation, abuse of authority or denial of basic, fundamental rights.
A good website to research some of New Hampshire’s basic founding documents is the Committee of Safety Constitution Archives. The website has the original New Hampshire Constitution and the journals of the Senate and House of Representatives spanning from 1794-1787.
What good are the rights of New Hampshire citizens if they do not know them? The first step to knowing what one’s rights are is to know what they are and that entails reading the New Hampshire State Constitution and its founding documents.
The first step to knowing that they are for those who do not is to read the founding documents and share the news with others.
