That’s a good question, especially since I will be asking you for your support in the form of endorsements, money, volunteer time and most importantly, your vote.
At every level of government, elected officials all too often reach for the “low hanging fruit” when attempting to demonstrate their concern for a challenge facing the community, city, county, state or nation. Imposing more laws and restrictions on law abiding citizens has been the status quo for decades.
When such actions occur, these politicians will justify their actions in the name of the “greater good.” They have also demonstrated their willingness to violate the California State Constitution to further their agenda and achieve their objectives.
Violating the California State Constitution is not just a matter of interpreting a document in Sacramento in a different light; to be determined by those with the resources to mount a legal challenge or defense. No, at the very core it is a violation of the constitutional rights of the citizens of California!
Yes, sometimes there are groups that step forward to challenge the actions of those politicians, but these challenges are limited and expensive. Those violating your rights have unlimited access to resources; your tax dollars and the money of the special interests who benefit, to help them defend the imposition of their agenda.
Do you really believe we need more laws to solve the challenges facing California?
Take a look at an existing group of California laws and ordinances. California Law consists of 29 separate codes as shown here: http://www.leginfo.ca.gov/calaw.html
Now tell me our problem is a lack of laws.
I believe we have too many laws, many of which are not even followed. Given the growth of the California state government and the tax dollars needed to feed this ever expanding beast; clearly more laws and more taxes are not the answer.
We cannot tax our way into financial stability.
The time has come for you to have someone representing you in Sacramento who will stand up and challenge the violations of your Constitutional rights.
Here is a link to the California State Constitution. When elected I will do more than just take an Oath to up hold it. No, my friends, I pledge to you that I will fight to protect your Constitutional Rights from all who attempt to violate them.

My name is David Hernandez and I am asking for your help and vote. Vote for me on June 8, 2010 to be the Republican nominee for State Assembly and help me then be elected on November 2, 2010, and you will have someone to challenge those who would violate your rights.
