Rule Of Law

I have been mentioning "The Rule of Law." Others talk about the rule of law in Iraq but mean a police state.

What should it mean?

It means government limited by constitution. It means a separation of powers in the State. And it means everyone is treated the same according to a law that is written. This law should protect us from force and fraud.

Ron Paul says in his latest writing, Political Power and the Rule of Law:

Our constitutional system, by contrast, was designed to restrain political power and place limits on the size and scope of government. It is this system, the rule of law, which we should celebrate – not political victories.

Thank you Ron for running for President.
