That would be as dictated by Thomas Jefferson in the Declaration of Independence, not the Constitution.

Other than in the ninth amendment of course.

The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.

That would presumably include the right to smoke yourself silly. But not in MY house. Even my father in law and father were not allowed to smoke in my house.

Well, I know of a way to deal a blow to the Obama administration and help people who want freedom.

We just need a few people to apply and be accepted as smoking “regulatory agents”, and bust certain folk. If you bust illegal aliens who run cigarette black market rings, you can get your quota of nabs while allowing good people who black market cigs off free.

A government is only as good as it’s regulators. And if they allow things...let’s just say it won’t be a party for Obama.
