Rick Perry is an American politician who served as the 47th Governor of Texas from 2000 to 2015. He was a candidate for the 2012 nomination of the Republican Party for President of the United States, and was a candidate for the same office in 2016. == Constitutional issues == Some of Perry's views are in opposition to Constitutional amendments already adopted. In his 2010 book ''Fed Up!'', he takes issue with the Federal government's right to collect income tax, saying "if you want to know when Washington really got off the track, the 16th Amendment, giving them the opportunity to take your money with a personal income tax." He also criticizes the 17th Amendment, which allows for the direct election of U.S. Senators. According to Perry, the 16th and 17th Amendments caused states to "() over significant chunks of their sovereignty and wealth to the federal government. Congress was free to tax and spend to its heart's content." Perry has expressed support for amending the Constitution to set a nationwide policy on social issues, by prohibiting abortion and same-sex marriage. He also supports abolishing life tenure for judges, empowering Congress to overrule Supreme Court decisions by a two-thirds vote, requirement of a balanced budget, and placing a limit on federal expenditures.
