If Michele Bachmann is elected president, which is a distinct possibility, she will work towards the elimination of all aspects of the Federal Government that were not specified in the original constitution of the founding fathers.
It is not clear if she would accept constitutional amendments put into place after the original version. I’m thinking not, but she has not clarified her position on this.
Anyway, Bachmann recently told Tea Party members that she’d eliminate the Department of Education because only parents and states should educate children, The Affordable Care Act because she sees “the current government is acting outside the bounds of the constitution. Probably the most obvious would be this, Obamacare and the individual mandate that is unconstitutional and is currently contained in Obamacare.”
On abortion, CNN reports:
When asked if she would try and overturn Roe v. Wade, which gives women the right to an abortion, Bachmann said she would put forth a human life amendment and do everything in her power to restrict abortions.
If you have a strong feeling about Bachmann’s stand on any of these issues, consider voicing it in the Main Stream Media. Like here for instance.
So, let me get this straight, she would eliminate (effectively) most of the constitution and all the laws of the US… then refill the void with her own constitutional amendments?
I guess it’s not just Rick Perry who doesn’t understand how US government works.
