If I die tonight in my sleep:
Let me have hugged and told my children that I love them,
Let me have told my mother how much she is loved and appreciated,
Let me have helped a friend or better, a stranger,
Let me have worked very hard these past hours in the name of my personal progress, and,
Let me have gone to sleep with the knowledge that I did the very best I could do today.

It's very misleading to think of Latinos as a one-issue (immigration) group or that issue is exclusive to Latinos.Romney lost the Asian vote— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 24, 2016
For many minorities, immigration policy is a proxy for their acceptance in American society. Moreover, quotas hamper family reunification.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 24, 2016
I can just hear "President Trump" now: "The American people have got to know whether or not their President is an asshole." #Nixon— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 24, 2016
How cute:we have his and hers potential court cases looming over the election cycle: Hillary Clinton's EmailGate & Donald Trump's University— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 24, 2016
Will Trump point to 135 Latinos in Nevada caucus entrance polls and say,"You like me! You really like me!"?About 2/3 Latinos are Dem/leaning— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 24, 2016
Why would I not be upset if my anti-Trump vote this fall could help Hillary gain the WH? Clinton is good at one thing:unifying conservatives— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 24, 2016
Conservatives are still angry over Bush's unpaid-for Medicare expansion, the DHS super-bureaucracy, the huge increases in domestic spending.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 24, 2016
I don't have any sources, but if Hillary Clinton doesn't nominate former San Antonio mayor/HUD Sec. Julián Castro for her running mate, fool— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 24, 2016
I wonder if volunteers to the Trump campaign get course credit at Trump University? #sarcasm— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 24, 2016
Trump: " We won with poorly educated. I love the poorly educated." Of course he does. That's his entire voter base.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 24, 2016
I have no idea of who the idiots are at CPAC that invite Donald Trump to speak, unless they're booking him as a comedy act.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 24, 2016
Donald Trump is like the bone spur of the conservative movement.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 24, 2016
I wonder if Donald Trump is going to try to finance the deficit on high-yield junk bonds? It's the only thing he knows how to do.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 24, 2016
If Romney is a severe conservative, what kind of conservative is Trump? Fatal?— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 24, 2016
Conservatives cannot afford to make the same mistake every 4 years of splitting the conservative vote, only to see another RINO win the nod.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 24, 2016
Kudos to the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals for dismissing an abuse of power case against former Gov. Perry:Rosemary Lehmberg on DUI charge— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 24, 2016
Will liberal Travis County voters forgive and forget DA Rosemary Lehmberg's disgraceful DUI arrest, putting her political career first?— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 24, 2016
Barack Obama might have decided to attend Justice Scalia's funeral if he had been killed by firearms.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 24, 2016
@kasie @AlexNowrasteh It's harder to be naturalized than to run for President. Donald Trump hasn't retained his party membership that long.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 24, 2016
The whole purpose of the Tea Party revolution was to limit government, not to resurrect Know Nothingness or elect Big Government RINO's.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 24, 2016
I think @marcorubio should contemplate running an independent campaign for President. He's already proven he can beat a third party RINO.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 24, 2016
I could support an independent run by Rubio for the White House. If nothing else, he would kill the idea of a Trump Presidency.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 24, 2016
"Only 5 of the 44 polls (2%!) conducted over the last eight months show Trump actually leading Hillary." Cruz and Rubio need this talking pt— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 24, 2016
Trump fantasizes of protesters getting roughed up, punched in the face.Jeb Bush, you said you would have killed baby Hitler. No to Trump.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 24, 2016
I wonder what it is about foul-mouthed, thrice-married, Bible-misquoting Trump that evangelicals like--his supermodel wife?— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 24, 2016
Dick Morris argues that Rubio and Cruz belong to different factions and hence if Cruz leaves the race, Rubio doesn't inherit Cruz support.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 24, 2016
Morris' analysis is wrong. Rubio is not part of the establishment. I've seen one poll suggest Cruz beats Trump 51-43, Rubio loses 52-45.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 24, 2016
I think Rubio's biggest problem against Trump is the perception that his message is scripted and not authentic, that he is a puppet.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 24, 2016
What Rubio needs to do is to channel his inner populist, show his passion and outrage. Pick a topic--crony capitalism,civil asset forfeiture— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 24, 2016
"Trump said he planned to return a $250 donation from [white Supremacist] Johnson." But I thought Trump was funding his own campaign!— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 25, 2016
Ted Cruz On Gun ViolencePro-vaping Congressman Duncan Hunter has endorsed Donald Trump. He apparently really doesn't like Cuban cigars.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 25, 2016

(continued from a Pro-Life Libertarian thread. The question is whether a pro-life libertarian could vote for a pro-abort libertarian, like Gary Johnson.)
So if the states want to execute all the Jews that live there, that's no business of the federal government?
No, the state governments by the fourteenth amendment section 1 cannot deprive people of their lives without due process of law (i.e., capital punishment) and moreover their laws must provide equal protection. This is ensured by the Supremacy Clause under Article 6 of the Constitution.
What about the "Life at Conception Act"? It sounds like it would trump Roe v. Wade. http://m.townhall.com/.../sen-rand-paul-introduces-life...
This basically conflicts with Roe v Wade, and SCOTUS is likely to strike it down. Also, it would never get past a Senate filibuster by Senate Dems.
