WarOnGuns 2020 Political Questionnaire

The NRA Board of Directors Questionnaire was actually derived from a political questionnaire I developed years ago. I update and tailor it as I think necessary, and what follows are the questions I expect a politician to satisfactorily answer if he wants my support.

And yes, that's no guarantee he won't betray you, but at least this creates a record that can be used against him afterward and ever after to undeniably prove he lies to get what he wants.

Here are this year's questions:
  • Do you believe that the Constitution is the “supreme Law of the Land” and that the Bill of Rights acknowledges the birthrights of all Americans? 
  • If so, should these rights be proactively protected from infringement by all levels of government? How? 
  • Please give some examples of gun laws you consider unconstitutional. 
  • Please give some examples of gun laws you consider constitutional.
  • Does the right to bear arms include the right for any peaceable citizen to carry them openly or concealed without a permit? 
  • Do you believe that Americans have a right to own, use and carry full-auto weapons of militia utility? 
  • Do you agree with “enforce existing gun laws” or "repeal existing gun laws"? 
  • Do you support or oppose licensing requirements to own or carry firearms? Why? 
  • What specific gun laws will you work to get repealed? 
  • If elected, will you back your words of support for firearms rights up with consistent actions? How? 
  • Do you agree that politicians should be held accountable in their NRA and other "gun lobby" grades for immigration actions that undermine the Second Amendment? If “No,” and if falling back on the “single issue” excuse, provide credible and testable evidence – not anecdotes and not just opinions – to show that will not happen.
Like I said, these are MY criteria. Feel free to use them or modify/develop your own, and don't forget to publicize a politician's answers or if he shines you on.
