to stand up in terms of legislation, and also from the legal perspective. if there is a case that goes before the court, they need to follow the constitution, and they also need to have reference with the declaration of independence. that s part of our government that we uphold private property rights. that hasn t happened a lot in recent years, but it must. we are in the final 30 seconds of the segments. do you have a question? kilo is one of my top ones as well. you expressed support for a federal human life amendment. why is it preferable to allowing the state to have their own policy on abortion? because life is the fundamental issue. if you go back to the declaration of independence we have inalienable rights. those are the rights god gives to us and not man. the reason the governments were instituted according to the declaration of independence was to protect the inalienable rights which includes life.

you re a democrat or a republican, maybe not so sure. it s a good opportunity for you to hear from these candidates in extended form as they offer a presentation, answer some questions. the republican congresswoman, michele bachmann of minnesota is here. the georgia businessman herman cain, the former speaker of the house, newt gingrich. the texas congressman and libertarian ron paul and the former massachusetts governor, mitt romney all appearing at senator demint s at this forum in south carolina. missing, the texas governor, rick perry. at the last minute he decided to go home because of wildfires affecting his state. we ll get straight live to the event in just a moment. first, let s get a preview in a sense of how much this matters in a very busy september. this event here today, three presidential debates. including a tea party debate presented by cnn on october 12th, tampa, florida. yes labor day 2011 but a big impact had month on the presidential race for 2012. let s
