You mean to stretch and twist the constitution to find some language that says that a man who was growing wheat for his own consumption could be prohibited from doing so ?

You mean to stretch and twist the constitution to find some language that says that a man who was growing wheat for his own consumption could be prohibited from doing so ?I was thinking more of the 2nd Amendment. Let's not forget that SCOTUS is there to interpret the Constitution and currently has a Conservative majority. I'm sure you would be less happy if there was a Liberal majority.

It is the areas of commerce (interstate trade) that the SCOTUS has been more corrosive of individual liberty, freedoms and states rights !

Of course it is best to win the Presidency - the ONLY NATIONAL ELECTION - but holding the presidency isn't the only path to controlling the SCOTUS nomination process !
Just holding the Senate Judicial Chairman gavel has significant weight on who does/doesn't make it to the SC.
Obviously, you don't know the Constitution, or the workings of the Legislative branch

for any minority leader that goes against their Libtard ideas.
They look at them like they are a full blown trader of the cause.
Libtards believe that any minority person ought to be groveling
at their feet in thanks for whatever crumbs fall from their Libtard table.
I say give the Libtards hell Cruz.
