I appreciate the unifying spirit of your comment, and do understand the reasoning behind an incremental approach - saving some lives is better than saving none.

That said, a HLA is inline with our Declaration of Independence, and our Constitution, esp. the very 14th Amendment used to justify abortion, and outside the purview of Federalism for the simple reason that the right to life preempts it in that it is prerequisite to all all other rights. A baby conceived in Massachusetts has the same right to life as a baby conceived in Louisiana, or indeed as any other human being born or unborn. There is no sudden "jump" in the dynamic process of organic development to justify the sudden bestowal of rights at any point other than the beginning, i.e. conception.

I also will be voting for Hunter because of a record of action on behalf of the unborn, and because he is the superior candidate, and for other reasons (see tagline), but do understand and respect the incremental approach on life as well.

I’m supporting the most strenous friend the unborn has in this field, Dr. Alan Keyes, who, by the way, despite his late entry, is already polling ahead of Duncan Hunter and Ron Paul in Florida in the latest Mason-Dixon poll, and who is also ahead of Congressman Hunter in Iowa.
