Pillars of Our Republican Party

Individual Liberty

• Individual Sovereignty is premised upon the relationship between the rights of an individual as sovereign and a servant government.  As the result of the Revolutionary War, the people were recognized as the authority because no one was above them.  This allowed the people to create their own servant government for protection of life liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

Our Republic is a government founded in the individual sovereignty of the people.

•A Constitution, either the U.S. Constitution or State Constitutions, are the rulebook by which we play the game of government and should not be circumvented, but rather changed if necessary according to its own ratifying protocol.  All laws must pass the test of constitutionality.

Restore our Founding Fathers original intent of the Letter and Spirit of Constitutional Law.

National & State Constitutions

Free Market & Capitalism

• Our success in developing our nation’s wealth determines the soundness and stability of money.  Privately held and publicly traded businesses are the source of our nation’s wealth, which is best overseen by government but regulated by consumers.

A strong Free Market based in Capitalism ensures prosperity and stability.

Limited Government

•Government becomes a big, intrusive, inefficient burden when it oversteps the constraints set by the constitution.  Government limited by constitutional constraints encourages and nourishes the sovereign person into action.  Taxes must be necessary,  constitutional, and appropriate for a fiscally responsible government.

Success is best left to the people with minimal government intervention.

Environmental Responsibility

•To promote responsible use of natural resources and minimize waste through source reduction and recycling; handle and dispose of wastes through safe, environmentally responsible methods; encourage energy efficiency and the use of renewable energy sources; and encourage consumers to strive for the same high level of environmental responsibility.

Intelligent use of Natural Resources.

National Security

• In order for our Nation to be secure we must have a highly skilled, high tech military.  We must have a government that is willing to negotiate as well a government willing to wield the sword.  The foundation to our National Security is our Solvency.
