"In December 2007, the San Francisco-based War and Law League (WALL) queried the presidential candidates on this very question. Only three responded: John Edwards, Ron Paul and Dennis Kucinich.
Paul and Kucinich consider preemptive war illegal. Edwards' only problem with the 2002 congressional authorization that he voted for was that it did not give the president "the power to use U.S. troops to police a civil war." Huh?
Unfortunately, McCain, Clinton and Obama didn't respond to WALL's questions. But we know where they stand. McCain hitched his campaign to W's illegal war wagon. Clinton voted for it and has a record of continued funding support."

Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
over specific principles, goals, and policies.

Not to mention my dexterity has improved as well with my new fencing skill.

Oops! Wrong forum...the second I saw constitution I thought I was on a D&D board or something! I must be as bad as the candidates and didn't realize there was another meaning to constitution.
