a declaration of independence from the last restraints on the power of the Federal Government.
I know this is a sincere belief of many people. Have you really stopped to consider the consequences of a weak central government on a nation with as much power and responsibility as the United States? It's one thing to wish you lived in Austrailia or something, but you don't! I think you should seek out the opinion of some Brits on the relative merit of losing the role of leader of nations. I don't think you would be as enamoured by the idea.

The Supreme Court mix is a key area with me.Separation of church and state is at the heart of the matter when it comes to the Religious Right.I believe in a woman's right to choose and hope it stays that way.

Great synopsis. The problem is that most people don't even understand the constitutional principles of checks and balances. Such as the judicial branch writing law from the bench when that is clearly the legislative branch's responsibility.knc
