Dr. Davis On The Issues - The Series
The Constitution is under attack from beginning to end. What steps when crafting or opposing legislation would you take when executing your oath to protect it?
Any legislation proposed should be reviewed alongside the Constitution and dealt with accordingly. I would not craft any legislation in opposition to or outside the limits of the Constitution. I would strive to word any potential legislation as simply and as clearly as possible, limiting any bill to a single issue and making every effort to be AT LEAST as clear and concise as the Constitution, if not even more so.
In reviewing other potential legislation, I would again read it in parallel reference to any relevant section(s) of the Constitution. If it is not covered within the limits of the Constitution, or if it appears to me in any way opposed to the relevant section of the Constitution, I would vote against it. The only way I see around such issues are the prescribed procedures to amend the Constitution itself, which are long and complex. In sum, just because Congress CAN vote in favor of something does not mean it SHOULD.

The Eastern Shore Libertarian Party is Here!
Welcome to the Eastern Shore Libertarians website. We are in the beginning stages of organizing for the Lower Shore. In the wake of Dr. Richard Davis' congressional campaign last year, we have seen that there is a different movement a foot, one that calls out for Liberty and Sensibility. Focusing on the issues that face our region, state, and nation is the key as we will be offering common sense solutions to problems that have been over complicated.
We will be announcing an organizational meeting soon for all of those interested in participating. We will be building up momentum for Dr. Davis' Congressional campaign in 2010.
