THE PROUD MAJORITY

2 foreword

America didn’t become the greatest country in the history of humanity by accident. It happened because America was founded based on the principles of and Natural Rights, which is synchronized with Human Nature. Commitment to these principles enabled Americans to prosper, guided by the optimum balance between liberty and responsibility to community.

Simply stated: Natural rights, according to Locke, were those rights that sprang from the exercise of “Natural Law”: · a right to property, since we have a corresponding duty not to steal · a right to life, since we have a duty not to kill ∙ a right to liberty, since we have a duty not to oppress).

Today that ideal balance is threatened by the infusion of progressive ideology and principles. America’s core principles are simple and elegant and must be adhered-to, preserved, and strengthened. We are convinced that these truths can overcome the distortion of progressive ideals, but only if enough people understand them. Our goal is to assist Americans identify the quality Organizations, Publications, and Books that promote American core values. The journey of learning our history and principles is very inspiring. Armed with this knowledge, you will easily see through the progressive rhetoric, distortions, and tactics and help in saving our great country.
