Shocker: Only 29% of Obama Supporters Think Supreme Court Rulings Should Be Based on the Constitution
I sincerely wish I was making this up, but according to a recent Rasmussen survey, just 29% of voters supporting Obama believe Supreme Court justices should rule based on what is in the U.S. constitution.
From Rasmussen:
If this isn't Ron Paul's worst nightmare (and indeed that of the constitution's authors), I don't know what is.
From Rasmussen:
While 82% of voters who support McCain believe the justices should rule on what is in the Constitution, just 29% of Barack Obama’s supporters agree. Just 11% of McCain supporters say judges should rule based on the judge’s sense of fairness, while nearly half (49%) of Obama supporters agree.If you're a fan of George Bush (something I am not), you might want to mention this little tidbit the next time you find yourself listening to someone on the left talk about how important the constitution is, and how much our president has destroyed it.
If this isn't Ron Paul's worst nightmare (and indeed that of the constitution's authors), I don't know what is.
