    Voters in Arizona will decide next year whether residents will be subject to mandates in the pending health care reform that President Barack Obama and congressional Democrats are promoting.

    At least five other states – Indiana, Minnesota, New Mexico, North Dakota and Wyoming – have considered proposals to take pre-emptive action against the pending federal mandates, but those proposals have either not made it out of committee, failed to get enough votes from one side of the legislature, or are still being crafted.

    Only the Arizona Legislature introduced an initiative (HCR2014), which if passed, would amend the state constitution to codify that no resident would be required to participate in any public health care option. Arizonans will vote on the initiative in November 2010.

    How many positions does this make of Obama that states are willing to pass laws to oppose?

    I am not sure that a revolution occasionally is a good idea but standing up for the 10th amendment certainly is.

    The revolution is brewing and it will place America in a much better position. And we have Obama to thank for that.

    If all 50 states would follow Arizona's lead, or even two thirds, it would move things along.

    Thank God for the 10th Amendment. Too bad Washington ignores its most of the time.
