How Pro-lifers can win more elections.

Slightly more than half of voters will reject a “National Ban on Abortion” and reject candidates they believe would impose a “Ban. To this large fraction of the public, this term means no abortions, even to save women’s lives, or allowed in cases of rape or incest or subject of a medical emergency. Yet, in a close race, we lose without enough of their votes. What people want, including most pro-abortion voters, is due process of law.

Pandering Politicians and Marxist-controlled media purposely

Here is what you should never do.

If asked if you plan to “ban” abortion, say no; I’m 100% for due process of law. (This trap question is designed to make you lose an election by twisting the subject matter.)

Many Voters Are Confused About What to Believe

The issues surrounding the right to life and due process of law are fundamental and often complex aspects of any democratic society. Here are some reasons why voters might find these topics confusing:

Legal Complexity:

The right to life and due process are legal concepts that can vary significantly depending on the legal system and jurisdiction. Understanding the legal intricacies of these rights can be challenging for the average voter.

Moral and Ethical Perspectives:

These issues often involve moral and ethical considerations. Voters may have differing personal beliefs and values that influence their opinions on topics like abortion, capital punishment, and the treatment of individuals in the criminal justice system.

Media Coverage:

Media coverage of these topics can sometimes be polarized or biased, making it difficult for voters to access unbiased information and form their opinions.

Political Rhetoric:

Politicians and interest groups may use emotionally charged rhetoric when discussing these issues, which can further cloud the debate and make it hard for voters to discern the facts.

Evolution of Legal Standards:

Legal standards and interpretations of these rights can evolve due to court decisions and societal attitudes. This can lead to confusion about what is currently legally permissible or protected.

Complex Legal Cases:

High-profile legal cases involving these rights, such as landmark Supreme Court decisions, can be complex and nuanced. Understanding the legal reasoning behind such patients may require a deep understanding of the law.

Pandering Politicians:

Politicians who accept funding from notable interest organizations who benefit from the execution of tiny humans banter the talking points these executioners deliver to them to “sell the public on getting the execution of tiny humans without the due process of law.

Instead, it would be best if you asked the following:

~ Ask them if they can tell you where in the Constitution a distinction is made between a born and an unborn human being. (The correct answer is nowhere.)

~ Ask your questioner if they completely support the constitutional right to due process. If they say no, you can call them out for what they are: opponents of the Constitution. If they say yes, you have them stumped.

Now, I’ll explain how to reframe the debate so that “unborn tiny humans” get their “due process rights.” I’ll cover the entire core of due process rights, not all of which will apply to unborn tiny humans.

Due process rights are protected by the U.S. Constitution primarily through the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments. These amendments establish the framework for ensuring that individuals are not deprived of life, liberty, or property without proper legal procedures.

Fifth Amendment:

The Fifth Amendment applies to the federal government and includes several critical due process protections:

Grand Jury Indictment:

In cases of serious crimes, individuals are protected from being tried for a capital or “infamous” crime without first being indicted by a grand jury.

Double Jeopardy:

It prevents individuals from being tried twice for crimes in the same jurisdiction.

Self-Incrimination:

The Fifth Amendment includes the right to remain silent and not incriminate oneself during a criminal trial.

Due Process Clause:

The Fifth Amendment’s Due Process Clause requires that the federal government provide individuals with a fair legal process, which includes notice, a hearing, and other fundamental elements of a fair trial.

Fourteenth Amendment:

The Fourteenth Amendment also extends many of these protections to state governments. The relevant section of the Fourteenth Amendment is its Due Process Clause, which states:

“No State shall ~ deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law.”

Note the word ~ “any.” Note the word “without.” (The Constitution tells us that no one may lawfully lose their life without due process of law.) This is clear as a bell.

The U.S. Constitution

This clause has been central to incorporating the Bill of Rights (including the Fifth Amendment) and applying it to state governments. It ensures that individuals in the states are also protected from arbitrary or unfair deprivations of their rights by state authorities.

The U.S. Constitution

In addition to the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments, other constitutional provisions and principles contribute to the protection of due process rights. For example, equal protection under the law (also found in the Fourteenth Amendment) ensures that laws are applied equally to all individuals without discrimination.

Furthermore, the Supreme Court has interpreted and elaborated upon the scope and specifics of due process rights through its decisions. These decisions have shaped the understanding of what constitutes due process in various legal contexts, including criminal trials, civil proceedings, and administrative actions.

Overall, the U.S. Constitution, particularly the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments, serves as a foundational document for safeguarding the due process rights of individuals within the United States.

Due Process Illustrated

Last March, the McLaughlin Group conducted a nationwide poll for National Right to Life, which asked:

Would you support or oppose allowing abortion only under these four due processes of law?

  • 1) When it is necessary to save the life of the mother
  • 2) When there is a medical emergency posing a serious risk of substantial irreversible physical harm to the mother
  • 3) In cases of rape
  • 4) In cases of incest

Seventy-two percent (72%) said they would support that proposal! A poll in Oklahoma that asked the same question got an even higher level of support.

What are a person’s due process rights?

A person’s due process rights refer to the legal protections and guarantees that ensure fair and just treatment under the law when the government takes action that may deprive an individual of life, liberty, or property. These rights are derived from the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments to the U.S. Constitution, and they include the following principles and safeguards:

Notice:

Individuals must be given adequate notice of any legal proceedings or actions that may affect their rights. This notice informs them of the nature of the charges or actions against them, allowing them to prepare a defense. (This does not permit secrecy.)

Fair and Impartial Hearing:

Anyone facing government action that could result in depriving their rights is entitled to a fair and impartial hearing. This includes the right to present evidence, cross-examine witnesses, and have legal representation. Pandering Politicians are willing to talk down the rights of unborn tiny humans to get votes. In exchange for campaign contributions, they’ll sacrifice the rights of an unborn tiny human to a fair and impartial hearing.

Protection Against Self-Incrimination:

The right to remain silent and avoid self-incrimination is fundamental to due process. Individuals cannot be compelled to testify against themselves in a criminal proceeding. Therefore, unborn tiny humans can’t possibly incriminate themselves.

Right to Legal Counsel:

In criminal cases, individuals have the right to legal representation; if they cannot afford an attorney, one will be provided for them. This right ensures that they have a fair opportunity to defend themselves. This means all unborn tiny humans are entitled to an attorney-ad-litem. (See attorney-ad-litem education below.)*

Freedom from Double Jeopardy:

The principle of double jeopardy protects individuals, including unborn tiny humans, from being tried twice for the same offense in the same jurisdiction. Once a person has been acquitted or convicted of a crime, they cannot be retried for that same crime.

Protection from Self-Incrimination:

Individuals can remain silent and avoid self-incrimination during a criminal trial. This means they cannot be forced to testify against themselves.

Protection from Excessive Bail or Fines:

The Eighth Amendment prohibits excessive bail, fines, and cruel and unusual punishment. This protects individuals, including unborn tiny humans, from disproportionately harsh penalties.

Equal Protection:

While not specific to due process, the principle of equal protection under the law, found in the Fourteenth Amendment, ensures that laws are applied equally to all individuals without discrimination based on race, gender, religion, or other protected characteristics.

Procedural Due Process:

This aspect of due process requires that the government follow fair and established procedures when taking action against an individual. It includes proper notice, a meaningful opportunity to be heard, and a decision based on evidence and the law.

Substantive Due Process:

Substantive due process involves the idea that certain fundamental rights are so deeply rooted in the principles of liberty and justice that the government cannot infringe upon them even if it follows proper procedures. This aspect of due process has been invoked in cases involving marriage, privacy, and personal autonomy.

These due process rights apply in various legal contexts, including criminal trials, civil proceedings, administrative hearings, etc. They are essential for protecting the rights and liberties of individuals and ensuring that government actions are fair, just, and by the law.

*An attorney ad litem (or “guardian ad litem”) is a legal professional appointed by a court to represent a specific person’s interests, typically a child, an unborn tiny human, or an incapacitated adult, in a legal proceeding. The term “ad litem” is Latin and means “for the lawsuit” or “for the case.” The primary role of an attorney ad litem is to advocate for and protect their client’s best interests in the legal matter at hand.

Here are a few key points to understand about an attorney ad litem:

Child Representation:

In family court cases, particularly those involving child custody, divorce, or abuse and neglect, an attorney ad litem may be appointed to represent the interests of a born or unborn child or children involved. Their role is to investigate the circumstances, interview the child if appropriate, and advocate for what they believe is in their best interests, even if it may differ from the child’s preferences.

Incapacitated Adults:

In cases where an adult is incapacitated or unable to make decisions for themselves, an attorney ad litem may be appointed to represent that person’s interests. This can occur in matters like guardianship proceedings or when determining the appropriate course of action for someone who cannot make decisions independently.

Neutral Advocate:

An attorney ad litem is meant to be a neutral advocate for their client’s best interests. They are not bound by the wishes or preferences of the client, and their primary duty is to ensure that the client’s interests are represented fairly in court.

Investigation and Reporting:

Attorneys ad litem often conduct investigations, gather evidence, and make recommendations to the court based on their findings. They may interview witnesses, review documents, and assess their clients’ living conditions and relationships to give the court a comprehensive view.

Court Appointments:

The appointment of an attorney ad litem is typically made by a judge, and the attorney is usually compensated for their services, either by the court, the parties involved, or a combination of both.

Legal Training:

Attorneys ad litem are typically licensed attorneys with experience in family law or related areas. They are expected to understand the law well and the specific issues involved in the case.

It’s important to note that the specific roles and responsibilities of an attorney ad litem may vary by jurisdiction and the type of case they are involved in. Their primary duty, however, is to advocate for the tiny human’s best interests, which may not always align with the client’s wishes, particularly in cases involving children or incapacitated individuals where the attorney ad litem must make decisions in the client’s best interests.

How to Prepare for Debate with the Pro-Executioners

First, it is good to understand the art of sociology. Learn how pro-executioners use it to defeat those who want to preserve the due process rights for all of us, including the Unborn tiny humans. (Video)

To help voters navigate these complex issues, it’s essential to:

Seek Reliable Information:

Look for information from credible sources, including academic studies, legal experts, and non-partisan organizations, to understand the nuances of these issues better.

Engage in Civil Discourse:

Engage in open and respectful dialogue with others who hold different viewpoints. This can help you gain a broader perspective and better understand the arguments on all sides.

Educate Yourself:

Take the time to educate yourself on the specific laws and legal precedents in your jurisdiction related to the right to life and due process.

Consider Personal Values:

Reflect on your values, ethics, and beliefs when forming your opinions on these issues. Recognize that these topics often involve moral and ethical dilemmas.

Participate in the Democratic Process: Vote for candidates and policies that align with your beliefs regarding these rights. Engaging in the democratic process is one way to influence how these rights are upheld in society.

Stay Informed:

Keep up with developments in these areas through reputable news sources and legal analysis to understand how laws and interpretations may change over time.

Ultimately, these topics will likely remain subjects of ongoing debate and discussion in democratic societies, and voters should actively engage with them to make informed decisions and contribute to the broader conversation.

One More Action Step

During primaries here in Arkansas, voter turnout is only about twenty percent. (20%)

During the General Elections, voter turnout is only about sixty percent. (60%)

Most non-voters are not motivated by either of the two major parties. That makes it possible for us to increase voter participation and persuade the discouraged voters with candidates they know will represent them instead of the oligarchs who use professional lobbyists with thick checkbooks to buy the influence they need to increase our tax burdens and destroy our liberties.
