1. Florida Senator Marco Rubio:

   The next president must nominate a justice who will continue Justice Scalia's unwavering belief in the founding principles that we hold dear.

2. Kurt Russell:

   I think there is a very strong reason the Founding Fathers had for the Second Amendment, and that is that no government – no government ever – has n’t had to fight its own people, and its own people has n’t had to fight its own government.

3. Former US Rep. Joe Walsh:

   Our founding fathers understood this clearly and that's why they wrote the Second Amendment the way they did -- that that right will not be infringed. whether he had a gun, a hammer, a bomb, whether he drove a pickup truck through the window of a classroom... He's responsible for that act, not the gun, not the hammer and not the pickup truck.

4. Bert Rand:

   Don't forget that pure democracy is a form of collectivism -- it readily sacrifices individual rights to majority wishes. Since it involves no constitutional bill of rights, or at least, no working and effective one, the majority-of-the-moment can and does vote away the rights of the minority-of-the-moment, even of a single individual. This has been called 'mob rule,' the 'tyranny of the majority' and many other pejorative names. It is one of the greatest threats to liberty, the reason why America's founding fathers wrote so much so disparagingly of pure democracy.

5. Ronald Reagan:

   The freedom fighters of Nicaragua ... are the moral equal of our Founding Fathers and the brave men and women of the French Resistance.
