• We will develop grass roots groups in each state that will speak and act with one voice to elect conservative and principled servants of the people and the Constitution.
• We will focus our efforts on the House of Representatives, knowing the impact that will have on other elective offices. A secondary target will be senators who have violated their oath of office.
• We will encourage opposition to current conservative representatives in order to hold them accountable and to spread the message of restoration of the Constitution.
• We will not personally attack individuals.
• We will aggressively oppose government policies, decisions and mandates that are anti-American, socialist, communist, or not within the bounds of the Constitution.
• We will analyze particular districts to determine when it may be advisable to support incumbents who have demonstrated unequivocal commitment to the Constitution.
• We will develop a plan for the wholesale removal of House of Representatives members knowing that it will take a creative, courageous, committed, mass effort at the grass roots level.
• We will ask each candidate to take an oath to conservative and constitutional government before receiving our support.
DISCUSSION:
Make no mistake, Patriots For America members will not waste time personally attacking politicians but we will aggressively attack the liberal, socialist, anti-America positions, policies, and decisions being made by the Obama Administration and United States Congress.
Do everything possible to develop and participate in a “unified/massed force” grass roots effort across America that will speak and act with one voice to secure constitutional, conservative, republic principled servants elected to the US Congress in 2010.
Recognize that the current membership of the US Congress is a priority enemy of the US Constitution. It is the target we have the greatest potential success of rearranging by electing constitutional committed servant representatives in 2010...obviously this assumes we have an election.
Every effort of prayer, heart and soul will be pursued in defeating unprincipled, oath-breaking Congressional politicians of all parties. Even though one-third of current Senators should be replaced, the main focus will be on the House of Representatives as the most workable target with secondary effort to defeat targeted Senators. The fight to replace Representatives will bleed/impact other elective offices.
Raise up conservative, constitutional candidates for every House of Representative race/seat in 2010. This is not to say there are not a few, a handful, of conservative representatives currently elected, but they also should have opposition. If nothing else, to hold them accountable, and second, to be an additional voice to spread the message of "Constitutional Restoration In 2010 Or A Second American Revolution in 2011". These cases would have to be analyzed by voters in particular Districts where it may be advisable to support an incumbent that is a proven unequivocal constitutional servant representative.
To accomplish wholesale removal of House of Representatives members, it will take a creative, courageous, committed, mass effort at the “grass roots” level in every State. PFA State Groups must be energized into action to encourage, raise up, and support candidates who take an oath to our platform. A plan to assist must be developed.
CANDIDATE OATH/PLEDGE:
"I declare and affirm that I will hold myself bound to bear allegiance to the Constitution of the United States of America, and will use my personal energies and resources to convince the leadership of the political party, for which I am a candidate, to focus its legislative actions only to issues that do not usurp the rights that are reserved by the Constitution to the States or to the People. I will not bear allegiance to any political party or party leadership when its direction, policies, or proposed legislation or actions conflict with the Constitution of the United States of America, so help me God. "
Constitution
Commit to strict adherence to the US Constitution. Propose and support legislation requiring Congress to identify and verify that all new proposed legislation meets specific US Constitution guidance. Study legislation presently on the books to determine adherence to strict Constitutional principles with the goal of eliminating all unconstitutional executive orders, bills, laws, resolutions, regulations and requirements.
Budget/Economy/
Balance the Federal Budget. Stand firm for capitalism principles as the bedrock for American free market. Lower or eliminate taxes on businesses to encourage job creation. Eliminate the Death tax, thus allowing small businesses and family farms the ability to be transferred to the next generation without costly schemes. Investigate and demand prosecution for any criminal or ethical violations associated with the 2008/2009 economic crisis.
Defense
The defense of the United States is the primary mission of the government, without which all other rights and privileges mean nothing. That requires a military force that is second to none in technology and advanced weaponry together with the infrastructure to support an advanced global fighting force. Before sending America’s men and women into battle, a congressional declaration of war must be approved.
Energy
Our country has abundant sources of energy, but our government has stifled development. Drill off our coasts, begin processing our abundant resources of shale in the western states, and build nuclear power plants. Use our coal resources to create synthetic fuel, and use technology to make the burning of coal cleaner.
Immigration
Laws on the books must be enforced. This starts with adequately funding our Border Patrol. A nation is not a nation unless it can control its borders. Interpreters or defense attorneys cannot be provided for illegal aliens at taxpayer expense. There is room for only one flag and one language, English. All Federal and State documents, including voting ballots and drivers license testing, shall be in English only.
Healthcare
We have the finest healthcare system in the world. Socialized medicine would be a disaster for this country. Innovation and the proper use of technology can streamline and reduce the cost of healthcare in America to where every American citizen can receive the superior care that our system produces.
Respect for Life
Oppose destruction of life, truly respect God's power of creation and the blessing he gives us in our children. Also, with the number of qualified couples seeking children to adopt, babies born from unwanted pregnancies can expect a loving family to care for them.
Marriage
The sanctity of marriage by definition is the bond of holy matrimony between one man and one woman.
Term Limits
Professional politicians have nearly destroyed the United States as a nation of freedom, liberty and the capitalist system. Term limits for Representatives and Senators should be limited to three terms and one term respectively.
Federal Reserve
The Federal Reserve should be brought under total US Government audit, but preferably abolished with appropriate functions returned to the United States Treasurer.
