Such as? I ask because you're supporting Obama and I haven't heard any limitations he plans on putting in place, in fact, he's proposing the opposite.
I would say you have assumed wrong:
Promote:
1. to help or encourage to exist or flourish; further: to promote world peace.
2. to advance in rank, dignity, position, etc. (opposed to demote).
3. Education. to put ahead to the next higher stage or grade of a course or series of classes.
4. to aid in organizing (business undertakings).
5. to encourage the sales, acceptance, etc., of (a product), esp. through advertising or other publicity.
6. Informal. to obtain (something) by cunning or trickery; wangle.
I have highlighted the ones I feel are most applicable to the word as it appears in our Constitution. Promoting something does not mean that you actually bring it about through action but encourage and/or assist others in doing so.
Unless I'm mistaken, the ONLY person here advocating such a drastic move is Mr. Carpenter.
I have set forth proposals for PHASING OUT OVER TIME such policies, just as they were phased in and grown over time...
I PROMOTE the idea of reversing the trends that are leading to our eventual economic collapse. Failure to reverse course on our current welfare state footing will inexorably lead to the confiscation of property (sacrifice of Individual Rights) from some, in order to provide for others (the Common Good)... which will never solve the problem, just stave it off a little longer.
