Trump changed everything. That’s why I’m beating the drum now.
When is the first state primary for `18 middterm elections and which state? Getting scattered info with Google.
Iowa and New Hampshire. Primaries evidently in Feb. ’18.
Citizens of those states need to qualify primary candidates by asking them why the Founding States made the Constitution’s Section 8 of Article I (to deliberately limit / cripple the federal government’s powers), along with testing candidates' knowledge of the following clarifications by state sovereignty-respecting Supreme Court justices.
“Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States.” —Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
”State inspection laws, health laws, and laws for regulating the internal commerce of a State, and those which respect turnpike roads, ferries, &c. are not within the power granted to Congress [emphases added].” —Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
”From the accepted doctrine that the United States is a government of delegated powers, it follows that those not expressly granted, or reasonably to be implied from such as are conferred, are reserved to the states, or to the people. To forestall any suggestion to the contrary, the Tenth Amendment was adopted. The same proposition, otherwise stated, is that powers not granted are prohibited [emphasis added].” —United States v. Butler, 1936.
The states will probably find a tsunami of new revenues that they don’t know what to do with if they elect state sovereignty-respecting candidates to support Trump in ’18.
