Here.Here..I agree with that.
Doesn't the city council have enough problems in dealing with city issues.

Just because 22 other City Councils seem to believe
that despite their being elected by only their cities
residents they somehow have the right to speak for the
whole country, it doesn't mean any of them are
justified in doing so.

Although I would imagine most City Councils are under
a similar oath, I'm certain that Minneapolis City
Council Members, in being sworn into office, swear to
uphold the U.S. Constitution.  The authority to
declare war (or by implication not) rests with the
Congress (Article I, Section 8), not the Minneapolis
City Council.

City Councils are elected by members of a city to
represent them on city matters.  City Councils should
be concentrating on city issues.  If City Councils
concentrated on city issues, maybe there would be less
problems in cities.

Contact your Congress member, Senators, and President
for national issues.
