for Cheryl Haddock Candidate for District 71st State
House of Representatives

1. What are your reasons for running for office?

I love Michigan and it pains me to see people struggling to find
work, struggling to make ends meet, and struggling to take
care of their families. The current Governor and those in her
party are trying to balance the budget on the backs of seniors,
children and hard working families in order to build an
argument for tax increases. Our State continues to
hemorrhage jobs. What they’re doing in Lansing just isn’t
working. Enough is enough.

I’m a strong leader focused on the next generation, not the

next election. I have a plan, a vision the ideas and experience
we need to reinvent Michigan's economy. I have a plan to
overhaul state government and will make it easier for
businesses to set up shop, creating jobs, in Michigan. I will cut
wasteful spending, stop higher taxes, and I will work tirelessly
to stop state government from dumping violent criminals back
on the streets. I am ready to work hard to provide credible
leadership and selfless service we need for Michigan.

10. What is your definition of limited government?

Limited government is a government where any more than

minimal governmental intervention in personal liberties and
the economy is not usually allowed by law. Limited
government contrasts with the idea that government should
intervene to promote equality and opportunity through
regulation of property and wealth redistribution.

The United States Constitution is an example of the limiting of

government powers while establishing a central government.
Today a key part of the American Constitution is the Bill of
Rights. After enumerating specific rights retained by the
people in the first eight amendments, the Ninth Amendment
and the Tenth Amendment summarily spelled out the principle
of limited government. Together, these two last Amendments
clarify the differences between the unenumerated (as well as
enumerated) rights of the people versus the expressly codified
delegated powers of the federal government. The Ninth
Amendment codified that the rights of the people do not have
to be expressly written in the Constitution (i.e., do not have to
be enumerated) to still be retained by the people. In the
reverse, though, the Tenth Amendment codified that any
delegated powers of the federal government are only
authorized to be performed so long as such delegated powers
are expressly delegated to the federal government specifically
by the U.S. Constitution.

The U.S. Constitution limits the power of the government in

several ways. It prohibits the government from directly
interfering with certain key areas: conscience, expression and
association. Other actions are forbidden to the federal
government and are reserved to state or local governments.
