We elect leaders, not rulers.

The constitution doesn't specifically endorse either the pro life or pro abortion position.

Like I said, I don't want activist judges. Not even 'our' activist judges. Do you want them?

The constitution doesn't specifically endorse either the pro life or pro abortion position.

One of the foundational principles of this Republic is the unalienable right to life - read the Declaration of Independence. Furthermore, the Declaration states that "to secure these rights, governments are instituted amongst men." So, the Constiution and the government are established to PROTECT the rights of the innocent! This is THE American View. Anyone who doesn't hold this view has an un-american view.

Need more?

Preamble to the Constitution: "We, the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, provide for the defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America."

Unborn babies are our "posterity." 5th Amendment: "No person shall be...deprived of life, liberty or property without due process of law."

It seems your statement is blatantly false.
