Why I am a Republican. From the county website resources page; I believe government is most responsive, effective and responsible when it is closest to the people and therefore most subject to their consent. I believe the role of government should be limited to the powers enumerated in the Constitution, because government that governs least governs best. From the State party website: Guiding principles page We believe that liberty can be measured by how much freedom Delawareans and all Americans have to make their own decisions, even their own mistakes. Government must step in when ones liberties impinge upon those of his/her neighbor. Government must protect constitutional rights, deal with other governments, protect citizens from aggressors, assure equal opportunity, and be compassionate in caring for those citizens who are unable to care for themselves. Our federal system of local-state-national government is designed to sort out the level upon which these actions should be taken. Those concerns of a national character that do not respect state boundaries, or which pertain to the national transportation system, our national defense, or efforts to safeguard your civil liberties—must, of course, be handled primarily on the national level. As a general rule, however, we believe that government action should be taken first by the government that resides as close to you as possible.
