The Restoration of State Lands Act is just one of the questions conservatives need to ask their congressional and presidential candidates early and often.

The presidential candidates must also be asked if they are willing to work with congress to reduce the powers of the “Imperial Presidency”. If they give some b.s. answer that they are somehow wise enough to use these powers, they lose, because these powers are unconstitutional. It does not matter what their personal intent is.

Congressional and presidential candidates also have to be clear that the constitution says “interstate” commerce, *not* “intrastate” commerce. And that they “general welfare” clause does *not* mean “government largess to individuals”.

All of these candidates need to have their feet held to the fire.

As one of those “politicians” you are referring to, I agree. It is now the first thing I ask any candidate, no matter what office He/she is running for. When I became County Supervisir, I had no idea how much of my job would be fighting the Federal Government, it is the fight of our lifetime and we’d better elect people who are up to the task. But we need public support as well. That is why I put together this Town Hall.
