| Message | We will absolutely not support this bill unless it is redrafted without article II. Although we are in full agreeance with article I, we oppose giving government at any level the right to decide who is or is not fit to be a parent so adamantly, that we will not support any piece of legislation with such an article included. James Lott Chairman Democratic Capitalist Delegation |

| Random quote: "I worked at a factory owned by Germans, at coal pits owned by Frenchmen, and at a chemical plant owned by Belgians. There I discovered something about capitalists. They are all alike, whatever the nationality. All they wanted from me was the most work for the least money that kept me alive. So I became a communist." - Nikita Khrushchev |
