re: What core issue would you run your election campaign on?

it would probably be abortion but we all know that won't win you an election by itself.

I probably try to run on the idea of subsidiarity. Which would pretty much mean let's reduce the power of the federal government and increase the power of the local and state governments.

Health Care state issue
Marriage state issue (I rather have no civil marriage actually, leave it to religious groups to marry the state doesn't need to be involved in that.)
Emissions and such state issue
workers rights state issue
minimum wage state issue

etc.
