Dear Registrar of Voters: It has recently come to my attention that the Arizona voter registration affidavit requires that I certify, under penalty of perjury, that I am a "citizen of the United States" before I am eligible to vote. As a part-time student of comparative economic history, I recently stumbled across a number of court cases which, quite to my surprise, decided that an American may be a Citizen of Arizona state without also being a citizen of the United States (see attached). Since I am a Citizen of Arizona state who is not also a citizen of the United States, nor do I ever want to become a citizen of the United States because so many federal government agents are now involved in widespread criminal syndicalism and even murder (e.g. Oklahoma City bombing), this is my question to you: As a Citizen of Arizona state, how can I sign your voter registration affidavit without also committing perjury? I certainly would like to vote in the upcoming election, particularly for My representative in the Congress of the United States, but I do not wish to be forced into declaring a foreign status just because I wish to exercise my voting Rights. Please correct me if I am wrong, but it is my understanding that U.S. Representatives are supposed to be elected by the People of the several States (see U.S. Constitution, Article I, Section 2, Clause 1). In my opinion, this provision proves that voting for U.S. Representatives is the exercise of a fundamental Right, and not a privilege. I would appreciate your timely clarification of these matters. If I do not hear from you, in writing, within thirty (30) calendar days, please accept this letter as my formal withdrawal from the voter registration roster. One last thing: If I withdraw from the voter registration roster, does this mean I will never be called to serve on a grand jury or trial jury? Your timely response to these questions will be most appreciated. Sincerely yours, /s/ Eugene A. Burns Dr. Eugene A. Burns, D.C.
