Supreme Court Shoots Straight On 2nd Amendment
Presidential Candidate Challenges Americans To Continue Pro-Gun Momentum By Rejecting Anti- Gun Obama & McCain
Grand Rapids, MI (June 26, 2008) The Constitution Party, (www.constitutionparty.com) the largest third party based on voter registration (Ballot Access News),applauds the recent Supreme Court decision upholding the basic right of Americans to own guns.(http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/25390404)
Constitution Party presidential candidate Chuck Baldwin (www.Baldwin2008.com) commented on Thursday’s ruling saying, “ The Supreme Court got this one right. While the ruling still contains elements gun owners should denounce,the justices acknowledged that the words “shall not be infringed” mean just what our Founders meant; and two centuries later the meaning of those words has not changed”.
Baldwin added, “Countless assaults against the right of the people to keep and bear arms by both Republicans and Democrats over the years have taken a toll through draconian gun laws and oppressive legislation which has slowly and steadily chipped away at Americans’ vital, God-given right to self-defense.”
Baldwin pointed to Republican Senator John McCain saying, “We would expect the Democrats and Obama to be against gun rights, but voters need to be reminded that The “conservative” Republican McCain was behind anti-gun legislation to restrict sales at gun shows at both federal and state levels”.
The pro- 2nd amendment group Gun Owners of America added:
‘This year it appears (McCain) is seeking to ’come home’ to the pro-gun community, but the wounds are deep.’
Chuck Baldwin noted: “ The Supreme Court decision is a sign of the political sea-change we’re seeing in our country. While government has no right to demand people pay for (gun)permits, jump through hoops and ask for permission to exercise their 2nd amendment rights,The Constitution and all it guarantees cannot be dismissed and won’t be when voters decide in November they’d like to see a return to the basics in their presidential candidate…and I am that candidate.”

Baldwin Campaign Off To A Great Start!
June 23, 2008
Largest Third Party Launches Presidential Campaign From Grand Rapids Headquarters
Grand Rapids, MI- June 21, 2008: The Constitution Party, the largest third party based on voter registration (Ballot Access News) announces the official launch of the presidential campaign of the party’s nominee Chuck Baldwin. (www.Baldwin2008.com)
Headquartered in Grand Rapids, at 5500 Division SE, the campaign officially begins on Tuesday, June 24th at 5:30 pm with a family-friendly catered dinner and activities for children. The event is free and open to the public.
Baldwin will address an earlier forum sponsored by the Family Rights Coalition of Michigan , June 23rd at 7:00 pm at Oakland County Commissioner’s Auditorium, 1200 N. Telegraph, Pontiac, in the Oakland County Complex . The topic will be: Health care Policy and Family Breakdown.
The Baldwin candidacy is garnering widespread support and is on course to offer voters a viable alternative in the November presidential contest.
“Voters all over the country have told me, they’re “afraid of Obama and don’t trust McCain””, noted Constitution Party presidential candidate Chuck Baldwin.
A recent Fox News poll (www.foxnews.com.elections) shows Americans are considering the third party option as never before - 47% said they’d vote for a third party candidate.
A Zogby poll (http://www.zogby.com/news/ReadNews.dbm?ID=1505) showed similar numbers as voters voiced discontent with the current Republican and Democratic candidates:
Fully 48% said they are dissatisfied and the survey finds 44% would never vote for Obama; 42% said McCain “will never get” their support!
Baldwin, 2004 Constitution Party Vice Presidential candidate, is an outspoken conservative political newspaper and internet columnist (NewsWithViews.com ), pastor and founder of Pensacola’s well-known Crossroad Baptist Church, a radio talk show host (www.chuckbaldwinlive.com) and author (http://www.chuckbaldwinlive.com/sketch.html).
Baldwin won his party’s nomination after 74% of the delegates at the Constitution Party convention voted for him over former UN Ambassador Allen Keyes. http://www.constitutionparty.com/news.php?aid=751
“American voters are likely to deliver a ‘November Surprise’ to the two “Big Box” parties now controlling our government,” Baldwin predicted, saying, “It’s shaping up to be a ‘pendulum swing’ year. American voters have a right to expect their president to secure their borders, support life from conception to its natural end, and never commit American soldiers to a war unless it has been legally declared by congress and is necessary to protect and defend this nation. I am that candidate, I will be that president”

Fast Eddie's flood tax: Soaked citizenry
Monday, June 23, 2008
Gov. Ed Rendell is capitalizing on the flood victims in Iowa to soak the citizens of Pennsylvania.
Mr. Rendell proposes a 20-cent tax for every $100 in property insurance premiums to help pay for the state's flood-control projects. Kathleen McGinty, his secretary of the Department of Environmental Protection, says it's "a matter of life and death."
No, it's a matter of tax and spend, in typical Rendellian style.
Fast Eddie's flood tax would apply to all business and residential property insurance -- regardless of whether the property is in a flood-prone area.
"We are one of the most flood-prone states in the nation," Ms. McGinty reminds.
Then why not use revenue from the existing Johnstown flood tax -- the 18 percent tax on alcohol enacted in 1936 supposedly to raise money for those flood victims? Today that revenue ends up in the state's general fund.
How many millions of dollars -- or is that billions of dollars -- have been generated by that tax? Has the state government spent every last dollar of it to prevent flooding?
If not, why?
And why should the state's responsible property owners, whose land is not prone to flooding, be forced to subsidize less-responsible land owners who choose to build on flood plains?
It's bad enough that Mr. Rendell's excessive taxation already has left Pennsylvanians high and dry.
