And you aren't going to from ANY candidate that gets nominated.
And even if someone did, roe vs wade would have to somehow make it onto the SCOTUS docket to be dealt with.

Nor shall you see any commitment on reversing of Roe v. Wade.

Technically, Roe v. Wade was a power grab by the Federal government, usurping the powers reserved to the states under the Tenth Amendment, and could be argued against on that basis. There is NOTHING in the US Constitution that authorizes the exercise of any right of abortion on demand, and in fact, the Constitution is completely mute on such an assertion that this could be anything other than a personal decision, and that only in conformity to existing law codes. Something about “life, liberty and pursuit of happiness”, and only by a very strained interpretation of that phrase (which appears only in the Declaration of Independence).

1 he cannot “stop” abortion on demand.

2 you are not going to get any pledge.

Laws are being judged through political activists on the Left and should be judged on the argument for the sides in the case.
