"By reclaiming the principles of the Founding Era, Americans can demand more from their leaders and work towards a society focused on preserving natural rights, subsidiarity, and family values. By rejecting the progressive ideology, we can forge a future that honors America's heritage and secures a brighter tomorrow for future generations."

"The Founders understood that raising loyal and intelligent citizens who valued their freedom and the values of the nation happened primarily in the family unit. Thus, by placing God at the foundation of the government, encouraging religion and religious freedom, and fortifying support for the family, the Founding Fathers set a stable base upon which to build the new nation."

"The smallest unit of government is the individual, but without self-control, there can be no social compact forming any type of higher stability or civilization. While hugely powerful itself, the entity that shapes the individual possesses a greater power still: the family unit."
