Palin said she plans to hand out copies of the US Constitution.
I bet the media are still determinedly ‘confused’ about what she is doing.
Handing out Constitutions is all well and good,
and most who attend her rallies will already understand this,
but part of her campaign needs to be educational.
Ask many, and they will tell you that “the Constitution gives us certain rights”.
She and we need to teach people the very basis of the Constitution, the very reason for it, is to LIMIT the power of the government it established.
We need to teach that the assumption behind the Constitution is that the people and the states inherently have rights and powers, and that the Constitution only allows certain powers at the federal level, with the inherent EXCLUSION of all other powers.
This education has to be a part of the 2012 campaign.
Copies of the Constitution? That’s brilliant!
