David Wynn MILLER speaks out in 2012

[David Merrill]

I think in America we call it Administrative Government. This rumor (on the other thread) that the Bar took 200 years to "take hold" in America is likely marked by the State Administrative Acts of the 1960's. I have all that about Colorado on disk here.

I am missing it though, what MILLER said that struck a chord...

Please keep a notepad handy while you watch the video segments so that you can cite the Part and Minute Mark. I am really fascinated by this classical paranoia complete with delusions of grandeur. I am of course no psychologist but in my layman opinion it fits the bill. The similarities of hallucinations and the Voice (Jesus CHRIST/Christ Mind) experienced by Helen SCHUCMAN and some of my observations out on the fringe are quite intriguing to me.

This service by the AMA at the Magna Charta Monument (near the Middle Temple and International Bar Association) has always struck me as more of a memorial or funeral.

This rumor (on the other thread) that the Bar took 200 years to "take hold" in America....

I don't do rumors generally.
If it is such, I preface my statements.

A History of the American Bar by Charles Warren

For many years during the colonies and sometime afterwards, there was "law without lawyers".

[David Merrill]

Indeed in Colorado according to the constitution I can be a lawyer if I have a couple lawyers witness me "Learned in the Law". I meant no offense. The "rumor" would be that it took 200 years, meaning around 1976. The Administrative Acts were pretty complete among the States about 1969. That is why I called upon the R-word.

None taken.

There are the terms country lawyer, "reading law", and "admission to the bar" ......

There are also federal bar and state bar associations.

There are other bar associations as well including student bar organizations.

The first national bar association is the American Bar Association established in 1878.
The National Bar Association was originally formed by African-American attorneys because the ABA would not accept them. It was established in 1925

Bar and bench have some similarities, otherwise, bar is the whole body of lawyers of a given group.

You may find those terms useful.

In reading that book, A History of the American Bar, there was a federal bar in 1789 for the U.S. Supreme Court.

A national bar organization had not been established until the late 1880s.
Where there are a group of attorneys or a court, a bar may be established.
