Glad to know u had a marvellous time, and very glad to see Ron Paul supporters turn out in force for this march. Awesome to know even tho Ron Paul isn't running for the Presidency that his revolution is alive and well

His revolutionary ideas, methods and principles will not depart from the hearts of many Ron Paulites that resonate worldwide.

The constitution says what we *CAN* do. It does not say what we cannot. The rules that say what we can do are being ignored. The rules that say what a president or congress cannot do are equally being ignored.

The only way to change the rules is to utilize the power of amendments. Unfortunately, the President and many other officials are taking for granted that we are not paying attention.

Some of us are.

Actually, the Bill of Rights, and other Amendments, for the most part, delineate what the Government cannot do, instead of what government can do. It is genius. Compare how many times the US Constitution has been amended to the number of times other Constitutions have been. The amendments of the Texas Constitution comprise about 20 thick volumes.
