We appreciate the support you have given to the Constitution Party! We are interested to hear about why you have supported us. Was there a particular platform that earned your support? Was it for a specific candidate? Or was it simply for the hope we offer as an alternate to the Democratic and Republican Party?
As we grow in new States and win more offices, we want to be cognizant of those we represent. Our goal is to secure individual rights and bring back limited government. But we want to stay up to date on the most relevant issues in each State and the most important races to get candidates in.
As the Party of Integrity, we hope that we have earned your support and we will continue to fight to return to the freedoms we have lost.
April 2024: revised and passed by vote of National Committee
It is imperative that members and nominated candidates representing the Constitution Party and its state affiliates recognize the importance of demonstrating good character in their own lives.
THE PRINCIPLES
John Adams, the 2nd President and signer of the Declaration of Independence, warned:
“Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.”
He also counseled:
“The people have a right, an indisputable, unalienable, indefeasible, divine right to that most dreaded and envied kind of knowledge–I mean of the character and conduct of their rulers.”
THE PROBLEM
Over time, the limitations of federal government power imposed by the Constitution have been substantially eroded. Regionalization of governments, at any level, also results in the removal of decision-making powers from the people or public officials directly elected by the people.
THE SOLUTION
Our very Constitution when we condone immoral conduct by our elected and appointed leaders. Public respect and esteem toward public officials have fallen to a shameful level. The Constitution Party finds that a cause of this national state of disgrace is the deterioration of personal character among government leaders, exacerbated by the lack of public outcry against immoral conduct by public office holders.
THE CONSTITUTION PARTY COMMITTMENT
Our party leaders and public officials must display exemplary qualities of honesty, integrity, reliability, moral uprightness, fidelity, prudence, temperance, justice, fortitude, self-restraint, courage, kindness, and compassion. If they cannot be trusted in private life, neither can they be trusted in public life.
