Actually, that came from literally thousands of face to face
conversations during canvassing by dozens of volunteers in Iowa, New
Hampshire, South Carolina, and Alabama.

Only the news media ever stated that anybody would vote for Giuliani.
Indeed, Giuliani never had popular support at all. All the 'support'
for Giuliani was created by Fox and MSNBC. If anything, you are citing
evidence for the falsehood that has become our mainstream media.

The Constitution is quite clear and direct, and is not subject to
'interpretation.'

Perhaps you should go to the local community college and take a course
in Constitutional Law. Then you might learn that the only
interpretation involved in regards to the Constitution is whether we
should take it literally or not.

I, and many like me, believe that the Constitution should be understood
LITERALLY, and not allegorically.

So many today, on the other hand, believe that the Constitution does not
mean what it says when it states that the CONGRESS alone should have the
power to coin money, and thus the creation of the private Federal
Reserve. So many today believe that the Constitution does not really
mean what it says when it says that CONGRESS has the responsibility for
our national defense, and therefore we now have more private mercenaries
in Iraq (such as Blackwater) on the Gov't dime than we have actual DOD
troops.

There is no 'interpretation' involved in the Constitution. Only a
decision as to whether it should be understood literally or
allegorically.

As for Ron Paul and myself, we believe that it should be understood
literally.

As for you, and as for anybody else who is curious to verify the facts
of we are discussing, I recommend actually reading a copy of the US
Constitution. Upon actually reading it, it will become apparent that it
is quite straightforward, and is not subject to interpretation.

You either take it literally, or you don't. Up until about 1840, the US
Constitution was mostly taken strictly literally. It is no longer so.
If we want to save our nation, we need to start taking the Constitution
literally once again. If we do not, then America is finished.
