As long as we are a democratic society, with the ability to vote in many different people with different ideas and that the Constitution is a living vehicle of our laws, is there a specific ideology on how to run our government and not destroy our strength in our ability to grow. We even made a first amendment to give that opportunity to growth with freedom of speech (as long as it is within our laws). And on their own time, anyone can express them if it is lawful.

Vetting someone for an idea stymies our growth. Our existing laws create the line to not step over. I worked in government service for over 37 years and I was never denied the right to project my ideas. But then I wouldn’t be stupid enough to ask someone to have their rights violated either.

Vetting for existing laws withdraws our ability to grow and expand to better. The problem is not the laws. It’s the interpretation of the ones in place. There is no perfect rule. All desirable things naturally improve or develop with time and growth. And that growth also can alleviate the undesirable.

I have no problem with anyone saying anything they want in our midst. I *do* have a problem with allowing certain ones to hold public office.

Vetting someone for their concept of governance increases voter awareness and participation in sensible citizenship.
