Actually, the inclusion of that paragraph does nothing but further illustrate my point about Paul's intellectual and constitutional schizophrenia.

He knows the unborn child is a person, but refuses to grant that person Fifth and Fourteenth Amendment protections.

"No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws."

Well at least you answered my first question.

A simple no I can’t would have sufficed.

It was through "due process of law" that RoevWade was enacted. The fetus was deemed to be a non-person by law. Executions are done using the same "due process" of the courts. It is a poorly formulated law. It was arrogant of the Court to presume to declare when life begins.

He knows the unborn child is a person, but refuses to grant that person Fifth and Fourteenth Amendment protections.

He has introduced various Bills in Congress attempting to do that very thing. It is the basis of his H.R. 1094: Sanctity of Life Act of 2007.

What candidate has tried to do more and why isn't the pro-life movement behind his latest effort?
