Background: The Constitution Party is sick of the two major political parties and three branches of governement "ignoring their oath to uphold and defend the Constitution". The Party also heavily relies on the Bible and is comprised of the following seven points:
1. Life: For all human beings, from conception to natural death
2. Liberty: Freedom of conscience and actions for the self-governed individual
3. Family: One husband and one wife with their children as divinely instituted
4. Property: Each individual's right to own and steward personal property without government burden
5. Constitution: and Bill of Rights interpreted according to the actual intent of the Founding Fathers
6. States' Rights: Everything not specifically delegated by the Constitution to the federal government is reserved for the state and local jurisdictions
7. American Sovereignty: American government committed to the protection of the borders, trade, and common defense of Americans, and not entangled in foreign alliances.
Candidate: Chuck Baldwin
Baldwin comes with an excellent background: talk-show host, masters degree in theology, and a recipient of the "National Medal of Patriotism” award from the American Police Hall of Fame. However, due to his very conservative views, it is very unlikely that Baldwin would be able to win over enough of the moderate vote (his radio show is conservative-based and he is also a baptist minister). However, he would be a very good ally for John McCain as he looks to secure his own standing among conservatives.
