Free-market competition for education dollars, rather than a government monopoly, would create a better education for all students.

What in the nature of mankind caused America’s Founders to carefully define, separate, and limit powers in the Constitution?
I believe the Framers understood that too much power in a central, federal government could be oppressive to our natural rights.
Based on the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution, please arrange the following entities, starting with the highest source of authority, and continue the list in descending order of authority, skipping any that do not apply: Academia, Congress, Constitution, God, Industry, Media, Professional Sports, Supreme Court, Voters.
God - Constitution/Bill of Rights - Voters/Citizens - States - Federal. Both State & Federal governments should recognize and operate with three co-equal branches - legislature/executive/courts. Neither executive nor courts should create law.
Under what circumstances should abortion be allowed?
As limited as possible and decided by the states.
Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
Judeo-Christian.
