return to a Constitution that forbids an income tax.
How would the government gain any money? By a sales tax or something?

How do land owners have a larget vested interest in America then any other citizen? The idea of having land ownership be a requirement to voting is a step backwards and I'm quite surprised you'd even entertain the idea after all the talk you make about loving democracy.

I recognize that they wisely laid the foundations to abolish slavery when they wrote up that document -- they just realized the political reality that they couldn't yet do it and hold the Republic together at that moment.
If they so wisely saw that why did many of them own slaves until they died?

Need I go on? Or will you cling to that misguided statement?

Odd I didn't see that happen under any of the previous democratic Presidents. Roosevelt, Truman, Clinton, etc. Lets just run around with our arms in the air yelling wolf.

Again did that ever occur during another democratic presidency? For that amendment to get revoked the democrats would need to control the house and senet right? I don't see that happening any time soon. Do you?

A yes, blind faith in your President. Thats such a wonderful thing.

Well you keep on fighting the good fight. Your doing a great job with the fear mongering, first step towards coercing the populace.
