re Ron Paul = Does not need to see a constitutional amendment to define marriage. Look up “marriage” in the dictionary (LOL)

the only one to point out that it is not the right of the Federal Gov't to make these laws over STATES RIGHTS.

Come on folks, the Constitution gives these rights to us in our individual rights - It's our right and our responsibility...NOT Washingtons.

Why do republicans say you want less BIG GOV'T - yet you demand that Washington usurp States Rights when it comes to your issue.

We can't cherry pick = We either want our Constitutional rights or we don't/

The United States is a Republic - not a Democracy.

The federal gov't does not, constitutionally, have the right to decide for us those things that we can decide on our STATE levels.

Fred wants to gives our rights back to us - to cut Big Gov't down to size. Anything less is Socialism.

Fred is a coward who didn’t have the guts to face social conservatives like Janet Folger.

Ron Paul turned faith into a political statement!

Then Fred should be up on the stage explaining “how” he would limit the size of Govt.

I tend to agree that the states should make the laws but I like Hunter despite my minor differences with him.

Oh, please, the old boy couldn't even show up for any of the debates. So you're here to cover where he wouldn't go? Can you keep that up for 4 years?

But the Full Faith and Credit Clause allows the judicial branch to IMPOSE a “marriage” from one state that is not sanctioned in the other. How does a states rights advocate remedy this situation?
