#4 is perhaps the biggest constitutional challenge of the lot. What does campaigning consist of? Get people to assemble together, speaking to them, communicating ideas (or at least things that smell and feel like ideas), trying to persuade others to do the same things with their friends and neighbors.
All of these things are fundamentally protected acts, and clearly should be. I don't know that I want to limit the actions of a candidate by such draconian measure.
