Sorry, not in the Constitution is another cop out. Government has been making trade deals, regulations, setting minimum wages, taxing whether it’s in the Constitution or not. Unemployment is blamed on the President at election time. If a Republican gets elected he/she won’t get away by saying fixing the economy is not in the Constitution any more than Obama’s excuses. 150,000,000 voters won’t understand.

The founding document of our nation, the only thing that authorizes any government authority is a “cop out”? You can't be serious. Every American that pays taxes would be overjoyed to vote for a candidate that wanted to reign in government to it constitutionally enumerated powers.
