Founding Father, and Signer of the Declaration of
Independence
"He therefore is the truest friend to the liberty of his country who tries most to promote its virtue, and who, so far as his power and influence extend, will not suffer a man to be chosen into any office of power and trust who is not a wise and virtuous man...The sum of all is, if we would most truly enjoy this gift of Heaven, let us become a virtuous people."
— Samuel Adams
"We must not conclude merely upon a man's haranguing upon liberty, and using the charming sound, that he is fit to be trusted with the liberties of his country."

— David Bozeman
Sir Winston Churchill (1874-1965)
British
statesman and Prime Minister
“If you will not fight for the right when you can easily win without bloodshed, if you will not fight when your victory will be sure and not too costly, you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a small chance of survival. There may even be a worse case: you may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves.”
— Sir Winston Churchill
Abraham Lincoln (1809-1856)

"We, the people are the rightful masters of both Congress and the courts

Doug Patton
Contemporary American
Writer and Political Analyst.
"SOME OF US REFUSE to be embarrassed by attractive,
patriotic, freedom-loving women who don't believe in killing
their babies, divorcing their husbands, marrying other
women, surrendering to their sworn enemies or saddling their
grandchildren with trillions of dollars of unsustainable
debt. Some of us are proud of their courage, grace and
steely resolve in the face of fascist ridicule from the
left. Like Margaret Thatcher in Great Britain in the 1980s,
these are strong, conservative women filling a void left by
emasculated men who refuse to take a stand for what is good
and decent and right."

Mike Pence (1959- )
U.S. Congressional Representative
"THE PRESIDENT is not our teacher, our tutor, our guide or ruler. He does not command us; we command him. We serve neither him nor his vision. It is not his job or his prerogative to redefine custom, law, and beliefs; to appropriate industries; to seize the country, as it were, by the shoulders or by the throat so as to impose by force of theatrical charisma his justice upon 300 million others. It is neither his job nor his prerogative to shift the power of decision away from them, and to him and the acolytes of his choosing."
— Mike Pence
U.S. Congressional Representative,
Sept. 20, 2010.
Robert Owens
Associate Professor, Southside Virginia Community College
"Time and time again we elect people to
change the anti-liberty, anti-individual-freedom agenda
rotting the core of the American Experiment, and time after
time we find out that instead of sending in the cavalry we
have sent in the clowns, and the beat-down goes on."
— Dr. Robert R. Owens
Thomas Paine (1737-1809)
Author
and American revolutionary
"A thing moderately good is not so good as it ought to be. Moderation in temper is always a virtue; but moderation in principle is always a vice."

Paine
