Senator Jim DeMint

The Washington State GOP convention in 2010 in which I spoke in front of 1,200 people. 

I'm a conservative with strong libertarian leanings, especially economically.  I believe in the U.S. Constitution as originally intended by the founders (this is how they said it should be interpreted!), and that most, if not all of our problems stem from government's violation and abuse of it.  

"Government is not reason; it is not eloquent; it is force. Like fire, it is a dangerous servant and a fearful master."  --  George Washington

“Freedom is a fragile thing and is never more than one generation away from extinction. It is not ours by inheritance; it must be fought for and defended constantly by each generation, for it comes only once to a people. Those who have known freedom and then lost it have never known it again.”  -- Ronald Reagan

"I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them" -- Thomas Jefferson

"How strangely will the Tools of a Tyrant pervert the plain Meaning of Words!" --  Samuel Adams
