As an entrepreneur like Samuel Adams was and an American Citizen
like George Hewes, both part of the Sons of Liberty and the Boston Tea
Party, I too am fed up with taxes and the lack of Liberty. I will be
taking a stand for the American People and our American Liberty
following the US Constitution and the Declaration of Independence under
its original meaning. The Declaration states
“We hold these truths
to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are
endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among
these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. – That to secure
these rights, Governments are instituted among men, deriving their just
powers from the consent of the governed, – That whenever any Form of
Government, becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the
People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government,
laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in
such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and
Happiness.” This statement, the foundation of my platform,
illustrates the intent of our founders in that we are endowed by our
Creator and not by the Government. This is very important and you can
see without any doubt that our current elected officials have forgotten
our founding principles as they take away our liberties, that our
government is legislating against our consent, and that they are
destructive. It’s time, America, to vote out the destructiveness that
negates the original meaning of our founding documents, vote in someone
who governs with your consent, and who protects your inalienable Rights.
“No free government, or the blessings of liberty, can be preserved
to any people but by a firm adherence to justice, moderation,
temperance, frugality, and virtue; and by a frequent recurrence to
fundamental principles” - Patrick Henry
I knew it was time for me to do something and run for Elected
Office when I heard certain elected officials stating that they do not
care for, nor use the written US Constitution. As
President Thomas
Jefferson said “Our peculiar security is in the possession of a written
Constitution. Let us not make it a blank paper by construction.” Additionally, what President Ronald Reagan
and I believe is a step towards socialism, was the passing of the
health care bill, commonly referred to as ObamaCare. This government
encroachment, a mandate that forces American Citizens to purchase
government approved health insurance or be fined, is just the beginning
as we lose our constitutional freedoms.
Other concerns include the stimulus programs, which I believe were a
total failure. The massive government bailouts including the take over
of General Motors, (Government Motors) are eroding Capitalism. Our
representatives cannot even take the time to read the bill they are
voting on, telling the American people they have to pass it first to
find out what’s in it.
We the people have to put a stop to this government
takeover. Raising taxes and continuous spending don’t fix the problem,
it makes it worse. What is in the future for America? If we stay on
this same path of failure, continuing with excessive taxation and
government spending, enlarging the government and entitlement programs,
it will be the end of free enterprise, and freedom as we know it until
“...one
day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our
children's children what it was once like in the United States where men
were free.” - President Ronald Reagan

As Benjamin Franklin once said, we have “a republic, if you can keep it”.
