There is no question that the Obama Administration and the Democrat Congress are using their majority to rule against the wishes of the people. I have never seen anything like this before. The elections of 2010 and 2012 will tell us whether or not the people or their elected officials rule this country.

As to a base for opposition, in my view, the States are the best bulwark against the federal government, as our founders intended.

We need to repeal the income tax, which is the source of the federal governments ever greater power over the states and the citizenry. Returning to election of Senators by state legislators would also help return power to the states qua states.
