Our Principles are advanced by you.
JUDEO-CHRISTIAN FOUNDATION
We believe in the guiding force of moral law as expressed by the “Judeo-Christian” ethic and contained in the Holy Scriptures of these historic faiths. These were the foundational worldview premise of the founding fathers that gave birth to the freedoms and prosperity of our nation.
UNALIENABLE RIGHTS
We believe, as our founder expressed in the Declaration of Independence, that man’s rights flow from the Creator God, and that the rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness are unalienable and cannot be legitimately granted or rescinded by men.
SELF-GOVERNMENT
We believe that the only answer to the current moral decline in our nation is a return to the beliefs and standards of morality which our Founding Fathers placed into the Constitution. With the framers of that document we believe President Adams’ statement that “Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people: it is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” We understand that the concept of self-government begins with governing one’s self first, then family, community, state, and nation.
EDUCATION
We believe in the rights of parents to a quality education for their children. We support parental choice to create competition among the schools. We must insure that no school or teachers’ union can compromise the education of our children or advance a particular political agenda at the expense of our future generation’s educations.
TAXES
We believe that the federal tax system is abusive to the American people while discouraging investment and growth. We believe in growth-oriented tax policies which would gradually eliminate punitive income taxes and move our tax system toward that originally established by our Founding Fathers.
FREE ENTERPRISE
We believe in the free enterprise system as the best hope for men and women to fulfill their economic hopes and dreams. We know that the free market is the most efficient and the least costly system to deliver the highest quality goods and services at the lowest price to the consumer. We will support only those who support the free enterprise system through legislation to reduce or eliminate intrusive government intervention in the marketplace.
FAMILY
We believe that the traditional “nuclear” American family, consisting of persons related by blood or adoption through the marriage of one man and one woman, is the cornerstone of our American society, and the civil government is duty bound to honor and protect the integrity of the family unit through legislation and tax policies.
SANCTITY OF LIFE
We believe that the pre-born child, from conception to the end of natural life, is a human being possessing the same unalienable rights as all other people and entitled to the full protection of the law.
NATIONAL DEFENSE
We believe in a strong and consistent national defense. We believe in victory over, and not accommodation with, tyranny in any form or philosophy.
“To be prepared for war is one of the most effective means of preserving peace.” –General George Washington
RIGHT TO BEAR ARMS
We believe in the unqualified right of our citizens to keep and bear arms and in the Second Amendment’s guarantee to individuals of that right.
VICTIM’S RIGHT
We believe in the concept of victims’ rights over the rights of any criminal. We support a system of restitution as a deterrent to crime and recidivism.
NATIONAL SOVEREIGNTY
We believe in nationalism, and that Government’s first concern is the welfare and protection of the American people and their sovereign right to rule themselves without deference to any foreign or international body. We do not believe in trade protectionism but support political leaders who will adopt policies that create fair and competitive trade.
DECENTRALIZED GOVERNMENT
We believe in the power of the individual over the power of the state. We believe that only small government truly serves the needs of the people.
SUPPORT ISRAEL
We support the right of Israel to exists as a free and sovereign nation, and as our most consistent ally in the Middle East. We believe its continued safety and security are paramount for the peace and stability of the region.
