Importance of the Constitution

"Observance of the Constitution is essential to the survival of the Republic and the well being of Americans, their lives, liberties and property. Those in power must fear the consequences of ignoring, evading or violating it."

~ Clarence Carson

"The only legitimate purpose of civil government is to safeguard the God-given rights of its citizens; namely, life, liberty, and property. Only those duties, functions, and programs specifically assigned to the federal government by the Constitution should be funded. We call upon Congress and the President to stop all federal expenditures which are not specifically authorized by the U.S. Constitution, and to restore to the states those powers, programs, and sources of revenue that the federal government has usurped."

~ Excerpt from The Constitution Party National Platform
