Amador County – John Eastman, labeled by some as the “most conservative candidate” for California Attorney General, is scheduled to speak at an upcoming breakfast event for the Amador County Republican Central Committee. In past incarnations, Eastman served as the former dean of Chapman University School of Law and clerked for Supreme Court justice Clarence Thomas. On the ballot, he will be listed by another of his many titles: Constitutional Law Attorney. Eastman is one of three Republicans vying for the Attorney General seat in a field of 14 announced candidates from 6 political parties. Incumbent Jerry Brown has announced he will be running for Governor in 2010. Despite the heavy competition, Eastman is not shy in explaining why he believes his experience and beliefs make him the best man for the job. “We are a nation born of a belief in God-given natural rights to life and freedom, and the belief in government by self-rule and the consent of the governed,” writes Eastman in an essay titled “Returning to the Founding Principles.” “Along the way, the principles of limited powers and ‘consent of the governed’ have been tossed aside by the ruling elite,” he writes. Among his political stances, Eastman strongly opposes what he calls the “federal healthcare takeover,” defends the use of the controversial Three Strikes Law and wants to crackdown on illegal immigration. One of Eastman’s most contentious positions is his fervent opposition to gay marriage rights, which has already brought heat upon him from gay activist groups. He founded the Center for Constitutional Jurisprudence, which seeks out conservative stands in appellate briefs, some of them related to homosexuality. In an essay titled “Returning to the Founding Principles,” Eastman vows that as Attorney General he will “change Jerry Brown's path against traditional marriage and defend the people in court, and I will!” The Attorney General elect will serve a term of four years starting January 2011. The ACRCC Breakfast with John Eastman will take place Friday, May 14, 2010 at Thomi’s Banquet Room, 625 S. Highway 49 in Jackson. Seating is limited and guests are required to RSVP to the Committee by May 12. This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
