    I had a bunch of Canadian friends ask me how I could vote for Trump. I explained it this way; that I believe in the concept of liberty and limited Government as spelled out in our Constitution.

    They all replied they are for the same thing. Leftists actually don't know they are leftists.

    Well certain things should be handled by the federal government. Same thing with national security and environmental policies, those should be federal issues.
    Surely you don't want the states to handle border security, right?

    Really? And what are those things? Let's see where you go with this. I'll pretend you're serious for a change.

    National security and environmental regulations. I'd imagine you at least agree with the former.

    Apples and oranges. The Constitution gives the Federal government responsibility for national security. It doesn't say a word about paying for your abortions.

    Wrong; environmental regulations are not part of Federal purview. You get a "C".

    ....in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common 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.

    I said "former," not "latter."
    You agree that the federal government should handle national security, right?

    I have a friend originally from CA and that's his excuse for support of all things Democrat. We were debating ObamaCare and I told him "Why force California values on Texas? Would you then support forcing Texas values on California? If Texas is forced to have ObamaCare then California should be forced to allow people to carry guns everywhere."

    That changed his mind in support of State's rights lol.

    Yes I do; and administer our laws and manage copyright and patents. That's it.

    So yeah, the federal government should handle national security, health, and environmental regulations. They should also handle disputes between states. But pretty much everything else should be up to the states. While I do support gay marriage, I think it's wrong that the federal government is forcing all of the states to recognize gay marriages. That should be a state issue.
