And [such as the views of] Chris Cantwell, Congress 2010 candidate from New York on the 2nd Amendment: " 'To keep and bear Arms.' That means, you can obtain them, keep them, and carry them. The idea that you can only have an unloaded gun in your closet under lock and key with the ammunition in a foreign country is ridiculous. Load your gun, put it in your holster, and leave the house. There is no point to keeping a gun you cannot access when you need it. If anyone has time to go home and get their gun, they probably didn’t need it in the first place."

The Liberty Candidate organization focuses on four topics:

1. End the Federal Reserve
2. tax incentives for US-based energy alternatives
3. US intervention abroad is unconstitutional & unaffordable
4. Right to gun access
