Our Philosophy

I am a Republican because . . .

I believe . . . that faith and individual people are the basic constitutional principles that unite us. 

I believe . . . that our national stability can stem only from the basic constitutional principles that unite us.

I believe . . . that free enterprise and encouragement of individual incentives have given this nation an economic system second to none on earth.

I believe . . . as Lincoln did, that the proper function of government is to do for the people only those things that have to be done, but cannot be done by individuals for themselves.

I believe . . . that sound economic growth can be generated only by sound money and avoidance of inflationary deficits.

I believe . . . in equal rights and equal justice for all regardless of race, creed or color.

I believe . . . Americans have an enduring capability of making hard decisions unflinchingly when the security of the nation and our free world allies are threatened by aggression.

I believe . . . the Party is a party of vision retaining those things from the past that are worth retaining; always receptive to new ideas in the task of building a better America.

I believe . . . our mission is to win on merit as we appeal to all segments of the population – not as separate groups but as part of the whole with equal but never perior claims on the progress we can generate.

Finally, I believe . . . that only through the Republican Party can these ideals become active and successful principles of government.
