WB: Phyllis Schlafly

Schafly said the next president must stand against attacks on life such as the Freedom of Choice Act. Also embryonic stem cell research and cloning bills should be vetoed.

She said it's not enough for a presidential candidate to say he opposes homosexual "marriage." He must be prepared to stand against revisions in the definition of marriage.

A good candidate must protect parent's rights in public schools in rulings such as those which say the right of parents to determine the upbringing of their children ends at the school door. They should also oppose "nosy" questionnaires and school mental health evaluations, giving contraception to young children, and "diversity" courses.

A good president must appoint only judges that rule by the Constitution as it is written, and that reject notions that the Constitution is "evolving" or is guided by "evolving notions."

Schlafly said a candidate should stop illegal aliens from entering our country. He should never try to fool the American people with amnesty bills. He should also build the 850 mile fence on our southern border, and release the border patrol agents jailed for stopping a drug runner.

She said Republican candidates talk about cutting spending, but people don't believe them because they didn't do that when they had control of congress and the White House.

Schlafly spoke against "Free Trade" because it destroys American jobs. She condemned the way foreign countries discriminate against our products, and said we can't be competetive against Chinese workers who work for 30 cents an hour and no benefits. She said the top tier Republican candidates show no compassion for the many Americans who have lost their jobs to overseas competition.

American sovereignty demands we reject UN treaties because they always invade or sovereignty, setting up a monitoring commission to dicate US domestic law, Schlafly said. She said a presidential candidate must oppose things like the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, which would undermine parental rights. Schafly also condemned the Law of the Sea Treaty and said President Bush was wrong for cooperating for it's passage.

She also condemned a North American Union, and said we expect a presidential candidate to condemn this.

We expect a candidate to support English as our official language, Schlafly said. We must reject divisive talk about multiculturalism. We want to assimilate immigrants into our language and culture.

She also spoke up for the rights of inventors and pointed out that this right was specified in the Constitution before the amendments.
