Mary W Maxwell signs up on June 11, 2026
With self-nominations about to close in New Hampshire, I decided to add my name to the list. That list already contains members of three well-known families: Sununu, Shaheen, and Pappas. I do not know what their main platform is—although, surprisingly, all three had something to say yesterday about “affordability of childcare.”
I have not yet put together much of a platform, but I will tell you my attitude-in-general and by July we’ll know where that leads!
Since it was President Trump’s breach of the Constitution, regarding war, as well as our nation’s breaching the Constitution (Article VI) regarding war crimes, that caused me to announce my candidacy, one can guess that my ‘platform’ has something to do with the parchment. Yes, I am an old-fashioned parchment supporter, bigtime. In fact you can call me ‘anti-government’ today with regard to any persons who appear to be holding an official title but dishonor the Constitution. (Hmm. Are they really government?)
I don’t know whether I should be outraged by such people or just feel sorry for them. Anyway, I’m not planning to fight them so much as I’m trying to get back what we always had in the Constitution. I want “the word to go round” that we all have found our voice again. I even think, metaphorically, that the citizen running for a seat in the US Senate is not ‘Mary Maxwell’ but is a conglomeration of folks.
To find out who’s out there, in New Hampshire, I plan to spend a lot of time door-knocking. I want to discover what famously patriotic people can do. If what they want is not in the Constitution, we can chat about amending it!! Consider this:
A neighbor of mine just dropped by. He said “I’m a Polish-American. I don’t like all this dividing up of the population into Poles, Africans, Christian, Muslims, what-have-you. When I was a kid, I was just ‘an American’ and that’s beautiful.”
Is that in the Constitution? Hmm. Legislation of the 1960s Civil Rights movement made it illegal to discriminate among equals. But we really shouldn’t have needed a Civil Rights movement -- the value of universal fairness was implicit in the Preamble. Granted we did need the anti-slavery Amendments 13, 14, and 15 to bring all up to par, in the 1860s.
I wonder what we will be saying about equality in 2060? That’s only 34 years away! We might be saying that wealth accumulation of a family can’t exceed a half-billion. Article V of the Constitution puts only one restriction on what can be changed via amending. Namely, each state must continue to have its original number of senators – two. (Thank God!)
So please invite me to your town. I will make an Events Page for this (at my website ConstitutionAndTruth.com ) Ahoy, Mates!
P.S. I’m Republican but everybody’s welcome — Dems, Independents, Libertarians, Free State Project people, and movers and shakers of all types.
BYOI — bring your own ideas!
If I were in your state, I'd vote for you!
Hi Mary! I took a look at your site and skimmed Keep The Republic. You and I are fighting for the same goal—our very survival!
Do you have any time to chat in the near future? I'd really love to pick your brain on strategy and vision, ideally before I launch UTW! Just like you, I'm trying to build the biggest tent I possibly can, because we are all in so very much danger. It's a little difficult these days, though, to find sensible, solution-minded conservatives that haven't gotten in bed with this corrupt administration, and I'd dearly love to have someone with your perspective in my corner.
I can only imagine, though, that your life is gonna get extremely busy from here on out! Congratulations on the beginning of your Senate campaign—we need people like you guiding our country!
