The states have never delegated to the feds, expressly via the Constitution, the specific powers to regulate either immigration or intrastate education. So if Bush really wants to fix broken and unconstitutional federal policy on these issues if he becomes president then he must first do the following.
Bush must work with Congress to propose immigration and education amendments to the Constitution to the states. And if the states choose to ratify Bush’s amendments then he and Congress will have the constitutional authority to decide federal policy on these issue if he is elected president.
On the other hand, consider Thomas Jefferson’s advice to the states on all issues.
"The States should be left to do whatever acts they can do as well as the General Government." --Thomas Jefferson to John Harvie, 1790.
On the bright side we get to watch Karl Rove handle another GOP contender.
(ducking)
Well, bye....
Good News!
Completely unresponsive and full of himself...
Loser.
How silly. Jebbie doesn’t have to stray from liberalism to win in Red Hampshire.
And I promise not to vote for him. So I guess we are just about even.
Good!
I appreciate his honesty...Next Candidate!
I suppose we will have to wait and see but I have this sick feeling in my stomach because I see the Republican party becoming the “Pro-Homosexuality” party (like Glen Beck pushes) while the Democrat party takes up the “Pro-Polygamy”, “Pro-Pedophile” party mantra...
Dear Jeb, I am not changing my view, either. I am never voting for a RINO again — especially YOU!
Hear that, mean-old right-wing monsters?
Defending the security of our nation from hordes of foreign invaders equates to shrill partisan sniping.
We need to learn and sing kumbaya and listen to our better elites explain to us why hordes of foreign invaders will make us a better nation.
Good. Hope that means that with out the conservative base is fails to win the nomination.
Neither will we. I don’t want Bush. I really don’t. He’s the canned Republican candidate. I hope we can beat him.
