Repeal the 16th Amendment. Repeal the 17th Amendment.

Likewise for the 14th Amendment. Repeal it! And the enforcement of the 10th Amendment must begin now, with real teeth to guarantee State's Rights, a core underpinning of our Republic.

REPEAL! REPEAL!

And just how are y'all going to get all this repealin' done?

Amendment repeal has to be done by ANOTHER AMENDMENT. (See: Prohibition.) An Amendment begins with a joint resolution of Congress. So that means the Senate has to be in liberty-friendly hands. It ain't.

And if a lot of you stay home rather than vote for Romney, the Senate is going to STAY in statist hands, and no repeal will be possible.
