RE :This looks like enforcing the Constitution.

Are you kidding? The average voter has no idea what party holds congress let alone what is in the constitution. (The constitution does NOT authorize public school funding, anybody know that? Think that would sell now? ) Unless you can sell it in a 20 second news clip, it’s whatever the liberal media says it is.

I agree the average voter (ESPECIALLY THE AVERAGE DIMWIT democRAT MOONBAT VOTER) doesn't have a clue what they're voting for or why, much less following or abiding by the Constitution. However I don't care about the dimwit voters, but IMO, the judges & elected officials who have sworn to uphold & defend the Constitution are the ones whose feet need to be held to the fire. If the US Appeals Courts & U.S. Supreme Court, or the U.S. Congress are more concerned about political correctness or ramifications of what might happen, then these weenies need to at least be exposed for the cowardly b@$t@rds that they are.

Maybe it's time to follow the words of Thomas Jefferson....

“God forbid we should ever be twenty years without such a rebellion. The people cannot be all, and always, well informed. The part which is wrong will be discontented, in proportion to the importance of the facts they misconceive. If they remain quiet under such misconceptions, it is lethargy, the forerunner of death to the public liberty. And what country can preserve its liberties, if its rulers are not warned from time to time, that this people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to the facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time, with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is its natural manure.”

Or to adhere to the warnings & admonitions of the Declaration of Independence, to abolish & replace a corrupted government when such a government becomes destructive of its own laws & abuses its rights to govern lawfully....

" We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security".

Perhaps it is time to learn how to do this.
