behavior in our government , I see it on both sides of the aisle but primarily in the current White House.

I have not spoken or wrote about Mr. Romney, I figured that I will deal with him on the same subjects after he hopefully attains the

presidencey.

The letter he wrote is a simple and concise communication by what appears to be an American, speaking plainly in American terms about

American values and goals.

Heres a shock, I LIKE IT!

I have in general pointed out my boiled down definition of what the Constitution is:

The Constitution is the counter balance to the nature of man.

What is the nature of man?

The nature of man is to abuse power.

That is an absolute statement, the nature of man will not be changing any time soon.

Yes, the Constitution is a framework of governance, it provides within it the mechanisims and rules of running government, but the

American Constitution is structured in a particular way which recognises and enshrines individual citizens naturally born rights, rights not

bestowed on them by government but but their creator.

Now you can believe in a supierior being or not, that is besides the point, the point here is that the founders recognized a creator

(not a religion) and formulated a governmental document that gave the individual primacy over their existence, and government, any

government, by its nature as a creation of man was secondary and was a neccessary evil.

Keeping this letter from Mr, Romney in mind I look forward with optimisim to the installation of our next president, but I will always keep in the

front of my mind the filter through which everything passes, my understanding of, the nature of man.
