Reviving Our Constitution

"The only reliable basis for sound government and just human relations is Natural Law." "A free people cannot survive under a republican constitution unless they remain virtuous and morally strong." The most promising method of securing a virtuous people is to elect virtuous leaders. "Without religion the government of a free people cannot be maintained." "The proper role of government is to protect equal rights, not provide equal things." "The God-given right to govern is vested in the sovereign authority of the whole people." "The majority of the people may alter or abolish a government which has become tyrannical." "Life and liberty are secure only so long as the rights of property are secure." "The highest level of prosperity occurs when there is a free-market economy and a minimum of government regulations." "The unalienable rights of the people are most likely to be preserved if the principles of government are set forth in a written Constitution." "Only limited and carefully defined powers should be delegated to government, all others being retained by the people." "Efficiency and dispatch require that the government operate according to the will of the majority, but constitutional provisions must be made to protect the rights of the minority." "Strong local self-government is the keystone to preserving human freedom." "A free people should be governed by law and not by the whims of men." "The core unit which determines the strength of any society is the family; therefore the government should foster and protect its integrity." "The burden of debt is as destructive to human freedom as subjugation by conquest."
