* What has she written or said in and outside of her law practice about her views on constitutional issues like privacy, the "commerce clause" or equal protection

This question comes from MoveOn.org ...it just seemed like we should call in a team of reference librarians. Feel free to edit the question.

Thanks for contacting Radical Reference. I'm not sure if anyone responded to your request, but since Harriet Miers has withdrawn her nomination, I'm assuming you don't need the information anymore. Still, I will post your question to the website, where people can read it, post comments, or use the link you provided.
