Values

Abortion

Affirmitive Action

Affirmitive Action

Human life begins at conception.  Abortion is the murder of a human being.  An unborn baby, as a living human being, has separate rights from those of the mother.  Oppose taxpayer-funded abortion.  Taxpayer dollars should not be used for the government to provide abortions 

Affirmitive Action

Affirmitive Action

Affirmitive Action

Individuals should be admitted to schools and hired for jobs based on their ability.  It is unfair to use race as a factor in the selection process.  Reverse-discrimination is not a solution for racism.  Some individuals in society are racist, but American society as a whole is not.  Preferential treatment of certain races through affirmative action is wrong. 

Death Penalty

Affirmitive Action

Death Penalty

 The death penalty is a punishment that fits the crime of murder; it is neither ‘cruel’ nor ‘unusual.’  Executing a murderer is the appropriate punishment for taking an innocent life. 

Economy

Embryonic Stem Cell Research

Death Penalty

 The free market system, competitive capitalism, and private enterprise create the greatest opportunity and the highest standard of living for all.  Free markets produce more economic growth, more jobs and higher standards of living than those systems burdened by excessive government regulation. 

Education

Embryonic Stem Cell Research

Embryonic Stem Cell Research

 A conservative vision for education should entail something very different: schools as engines of social capital and repositories of shared traditions. After all, schools serve as focal points of common culture and conversation. They are where people come to know their neighbors. 

Embryonic Stem Cell Research

Embryonic Stem Cell Research

Embryonic Stem Cell Research

 Support the use of adult and umbilical cord stem cells only for research.  It is morally and ethically wrong for the government to fund embryonic stem cell research.  Human life begins at conception.  

Energy

Global Warming/Climate Change

Euthanasia

   Oil, gas and coal are all good sources of energy and are abundant in the U.S.  Oil drilling should be increased both on land and at sea.  Increased domestic production creates lower prices and less dependence on other countries for oil. 

Euthanasia

Global Warming/Climate Change

Euthanasia

 Neither euthanasia nor physician-assisted suicide should be legalized.  It is immoral and unethical to deliberately end the life of a terminally ill person (euthanasia), or enable another person to end their own life (assisted suicide). 

Global Warming/Climate Change

Global Warming/Climate Change

Global Warming/Climate Change

 Change in global temperature is natural over long periods of time.  Science has not shown that humans can affect permanent change to the earth’s temperature.  

Gun Control

Homeland Security

Global Warming/Climate Change

 The Second Amendment gives citizens the right to keep and bear arms.  Individuals have the right to defend themselves.  There are too many gun control laws – additional laws will not lower gun crime rates.  What is needed is enforcement of current laws.  Gun control laws do not prevent criminals from obtaining guns. 

Healthcare

Homeland Security

Homeland Security

 Support competitive, free market health care system.  All Americans have access to health care.  The debate is about who should pay for it.  Free and low-cost government-run programs (socialized medicine) result in higher costs and everyone receiving the same poor-quality health care. 

Homeland Security

Homeland Security

Homeland Security

 Profiling and intelligence data should be used to single out passengers for extra screening.  Those who do not meet the criteria for suspicion should not be subjected to intense screening. 

Immigration

Religion and Government

Private Property

 Support legal immigration only.  Oppose amnesty for those who enter the U.S. illegally (illegal immigrants).  Those who break the law by entering the U.S. illegally do not have the same rights as those who obey the law and enter legally.  The borders should be secured before addressing the problem of the illegal immigrants currently in the country.  The Federal Government should secure the borders and enforce current immigration law. 

Private Property

Religion and Government

Private Property

 Respect ownership and private property rights.  Eminent domain (seizure of private property by the government–with compensation to the owner) in most cases is wrong.  Eminent domain should not be used for private development. 

Religion and Government

Religion and Government

Religion and Government

 The phrase “separation of church and state” is not in the Constitution.  The First Amendment to the Constitution states “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof…”  This prevents the government from establishing a national church/denomination. 

Same Sex Marriage

Same Sex Marriage

Religion and Government

Marriage is the union of one man and one woman.  Oppose same-sex marriage. Requires citizens to sanction same-sex relationships violates moral and religious beliefs of millions of Christians, Jews, Muslims and others, who believe marriage is the union of one man and one woman. 

Social Security

Same Sex Marriage

Social Security

 The Social Security system is in serious financial trouble.  Major changes to the current system are urgently needed.  In its current state, the Social Security system is not financially sustainable.  It will collapse if nothing is done to address the problems.  Many will suffer as a result.  Social Security must be made more efficient through privatization and/or allowing individuals to manage their own savings. 

Taxes

Same Sex Marriage

Social Security

 Lower taxes and a smaller government with limited power will improve the standard of living for all.  Support lower taxes and a smaller government.  Lower taxes create more incentive for people to work, save, invest, and engage in entrepreneurial endeavors.  Money is best spent by those who earn it, not the government.  Government programs encourage people to become dependent and lazy, rather than encouraging work and independence. 

United Nations

United Nations

United Nations

The UN promotes peace and human rights.  The United States has a moral and a legal obligation to support the United Nations (UN).  The U.S. should not act as a sovereign nation, but as one member of a world community.  The U.S. should submit its national interests to the greater good of the global community (as defined by the UN).  

War on Terror

United Nations

United Nations

Terrorism poses one of the greatest threats to the U.S.  The world toward which the militant Islamists strive cannot peacefully co-exist with the Western world. In the last decade, militant Islamists have repeatedly attacked Americans and American interests here and abroad.  Terrorists must be stopped and destroyed.  

Welfare

United Nations

Welfare

Oppose long-term welfare.  Opportunities should be provided to make it possible for those in need to become self-reliant.  It is far more compassionate and effective to encourage people to become self-reliant, rather than allowing them to remain dependent on the government for provisions.
