No they don't. Most of them don't even have any idea what that word means!
If you support Federalism, I guess you don't support 2A being applied to the States, since it violates federalist principles. :cuss:

What I want (and I suspect most Tea Partiers want) is a return to federalism. If a State, such as MA or TN wants to have universal coverage, and the people generally support it, go for it. I just will choose not to live there.
When the federal government passes a mandate that we all must buy a "qualifying" health care plan or pay a fine or go to jail, then we have no place to go to restore our freedom.
We seem to have forgotten that this country was founded on the idea that States were individual nations, ceding only enough authority to the feds to allow people and goods to move easily between States and to provide a united front should we need to defend ourselves.
