I'd like to take this opportunity to say that I really..don't like single-issue voters.

(eg Catholics who vote Republican based on the abortion issue, while ignoring or downplaying the importance of the Church's teachings on poverty, social justice, war, the death penalty, etc...)

One thing I've noticed is that white (non-Hispanic) Catholics seem to prioritize the abortion issue more than other Catholics in the United States.

Makes sense at some level, I guess; white Catholics are more affluent than non-whites, on average. When you're not dealing  with discrimination or struggling to pay the bills, you can afford to prioritize sexual issues.

Constitutionally, that is part of the job of the federal government. Obamacare is unconstitutional.

In addition to what the others said re: Obamacare...preemptively invading countries that are no threat to the United States is not "part of the job of the federal government."
