  1. establish term limits for members of Congress,
  2. restore the senate (repealing the 17th amendment),
  3. establish term limits for Supreme Court justices,
  4. establish super-majority legislative override,
  5. limit federal spending,
  6. limit federal taxing,
  7. limit the federal bureaucracy,
  8. promote free enterprise,
  9. protect private property,
  10. grant the states authority to directly amend the constitution,
  11. grant the states authority to check congress,
  12. protect the vote.
