Hi Kevin,
Personally, I disagree with so many of your points that I am not going to post a message on every one. However, your statement below forces me to bring up one point that has nothing to do with my political views but everything to do with our government.

>but meanwhile we have other needs, desperate needs, that are not being met. We don't even have health care for all our children. We can't even provide breakfast for all our children, or books, or decent schools.
That is the role of a socialist country and not a constitutional republic. Perhaps rather than complain that our government is not behaving as a socialist government (which it is not) you should start actions to change the government to make it so (looks like California is doing just that slowly and methodically). Of course that goes against the intentions of our forefathers...
