Why is it important that we participate in campaigns and elections? What values unite us and motivate us to get involved politically? Here are a few values that we, as conservatives, share:
Individual Freedom: Our freedoms are given to each individual by God, and we are created as equals with unalienable rights of free speech, freedom of religion, freedom to pursue happiness and individual wealth, to own property, and to defend ourselves and our families. The purpose of government is to secure these rights. Seeing the Supreme Court uphold these rights has been encouraging as lower courts and local governments have sometimes ruled to deny these to individuals. We must work to elect righteous judges at every level who will uphold the Law to protect our freedoms. We must stand together and support those who are suffering the loss of these freedoms.
Limited Government: Government operates only by the consent of the governed. The Constitution is written to prevent government encroachment on the rights of the people, with a system of checks and balances and a separation of powers. Decentralized authority and elimination of unnecessary regulations and bureaucracy help ensure that government serves the people rather than people serving the government. We must elect local, state, and federal representatives who will serve the people in the boundaries of the position they are given and work to protect the Constitution and our citizens. We need to elect representatives who will fight corruption and work to prevent it.
Rule of Law: Each branch of government must adhere to the Constitution, and to the separation of powers. Transparency and accountability are vital to maintain liberty and civilized society. Justice must be served equally and impartially. We must elect local law enforcement authorities who will support the Constitution and administer justice impartially. We must elect representatives who will faithfully support the Constitution and write legislation to promote equal justice for all. We must elect faithful leaders who support the Constitution and will appoint those in positions of authority who will do so.
Peace Through Strength: The primary obligation of the federal government is to provide for the common defense of US citizens and of our homeland. We must maintain a strong military able to protect our citizens and defeat adversaries, tyrants, and terrorists. We must support a strong military that is ready to protect us against all enemies, both foreign and domestic. We must elect leaders who will focus on building a strong military to do this rather than focus on ideology that destroys those goals. We must elect leaders who will protect our borders, local areas, and citizens with whatever legal means are necessary.
Fiscal Responsibility: Government must operate in a way that supports economic growth, stability, and security for our nation’s future. Entitlements must be reserved for those who are truly needy, the disabled, vulnerable, and elderly. We need to support those who currently serve, or formerly served, in our military in an honorable way. We must work to elect representatives and officials who are committed to balancing the budget, working to eliminate fraud, waste, and abuse, and to restoring order and accountability to the budget and appropriations process. We must elect honest leaders who will eliminate grants and funding to governmental agencies lobbying and working against citizens using our tax dollars.
Free Markets: The free enterprise system rewards hard work and sacrifice, and is the foundation for our small business-based economy. Free markets provide the environment for innovation, improvement, and ingenuity that has created the successful American economy and built the American dream. Competition improves quality products available. Government intervention and regulation should be limited. Free markets provide the freedom for entrepreneurs and risk-takers to provide more jobs and upward mobility for more participants in the workforce. Manufacturing and business in the USA builds stability and security in products and local economies. We must work to elect representatives and government officials who support our American economy and will support citizens in fulfilling the American dream in freedom.
Human Dignity: We are all created equally in the image of God, and all human life must be protected from conception to natural death. All life is of inestimable value and worth. All should have medical freedom and informed consent for personal medical care and decisions. Public policy should encourage those who do good, and support education and hard work as the pathway out of poverty. It should support the nuclear family and institutions of religion and morality. We must work to elect men and women who value life, morality, faith, and service.
These are just a few of the values we support and that unite us. It is an honor to be a part of a local club that supports conservative values and works to elect officials who also believe and work to protect the freedoms we hold dear.
