A Message From Tom Hoefling:
I stand with every American, without regard to party affiliation, who adheres politically, in word and deed, to the original natural law moral principles of our republic, to the sworn duty to support the stated purposes and explicit provisions of the U.S. Constitution, and is firmly committed to the preservation of representative self-government.
What are the original principles of our republic?
Those principles are summed up best in our nation's charter, the Declaration of Independence:
"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..."
What are the stated purposes of the U.S. Constitution?
Those purposes are presented succinctly in the document's opening Statement of Purpose, in six important clauses:
"We the People of the United States, in Order TO FORM A MORE PERFECT UNION, ESTABLISH JUSTICE, INSURE DOMESTIC TRANQUILITY, PROVIDE FOR THE COMMON DEFENSE, PROMOTE THE GENERAL WELFARE, and SECURE THE BLESSINGS OF LIBERTY TO OURSELVES AND OUR POSTERITY, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America."
Therefore:
1. Tom Hoefling holds to the self-evident truth that our rights, including our rights to life, liberty, and property, come from God, not from any man, and that those intrinsic rights are therefore UNALIENABLE.
2. Tom Hoefling understands that we are all EQUAL BEFORE GOD, and that all persons, from creation until natural death, must therefore be considered EQUAL BEFORE THE LAW.
3. Tom Hoefling understands that the primary purpose for the existence of all human government is TO DEFEND THE GOD-GIVEN RIGHTS OF THE PEOPLE.
4. Tom Hoefling seeks to preserve and perfect our national UNION.
5. Tom Hoefling seeks to establish JUSTICE for every individual person, in the protection of their God-given rights.
6. Tom Hoefling seeks the TRANQUILITY of our nation, and seeks to defend all innocent persons, from creation until natural death, from any and all violence that might be committed against them.
7. Tom Hoefling supports the common DEFENSE of our entire nation, its territory, its sovereignty, and of every individual innocent person in it.
8. Tom Hoefling supports policies that are intended to serve the general WELFARE or WELL-BEING of the entire country, not line the pockets of favored individuals, groups, or factions.
9. Tom Hoefling's ultimate purpose is TO SECURE THE BLESSINGS OF LIBERTY TO OURSELVES AND OUR POSTERITY.
