Citizens for a Constitutional Republic was founded in 2004.It is our hope that we will be able to help preserve freedom and
Liberty
for you, your family and future generations and to influence others and impact public policy. That as John Adams said in 1798, “Our Constitution was made only for a religious and moral people. It is wholly inadequate for the government of any other,” and because of this we stand for and promote the general principles of morality.
Citizens for a Constitutional Republic is a nonpartisan all inclusive organization. This site is dedicated to returning
The United States Of America to a Constitutional Republic, with a limited Federal Government and restoring and preserving
freedom under
The Constitution of the United States of America.
Part of our goal is to help educate people about how great our nation is, how it was founded, and why the principles and structure of our government were put in place. Those who formed this government, did so because the reality of tyranny and despotism had a stranglehold on their lives. Being an “American Citizen” can no longer be a SPECTATOR SPORT ! ! We must BE PROACTIVE and DECISIVE. We are losing our rights at an alarming rate.We do not have much time left to be APATHETIC.
“When William the Conqueror subdued England he gave them law at the point of the sword; and until we consent that the seat of government in America, be legally and authoritatively occupied, we shall be in danger of having it filled by some fortunate ruffian, who may treat us in the same manner, and then, where will be our freedom? where our property?”

The U.S. Constitution was never written for, nor was the U.S. system of government ever intended to be a “democracy”, but
rather, a “representative republic”. Many of the founding fathers feared creating a “democracy”.
Historically, democracy leads to anarchy, which is “mob rule,” according to the
The Republic (Penguin Classics)
by Greek philosopher Plato
The form of government secured by the Declaration of Independence, the
American Revolution, and the Constitution is unique in history and reflects the strongly held beliefs of the American Revolutionaries.
The primary difference between a democracy and a republic is who is sovereign. In a republic, sovereign power
is held by “We the People” individually such that each individual is “endowed by his creator with UNalienable rights”. These rights can never be taken away
by majority vote. The sole purpose of a republican government is to “secure those individual rights”. In a democracy, sovereign power is invested
collectively only in the group as a whole.
“Today, prolific public policies and a mammoth government ridicule the constitutional principles established by our forefathers. Our government has grown to kingly proportions, arrogantly trampling the basic rights of its citizens. The few rule the many. But because our founders had remarkable foresight, we have the constitutional protections to move government back into its proper role.” Eric Gorodetzky
“There are more instances of the abridgement of the freedom of the people by gradual and silent encroachments of those in power than by violent and sudden usurpations.”
–– James Madison, Speech to the Virginia Ratifying Convention, June 16, 1788.

This Republic has to return to being governed by Citizen legislators not career politicians. The only voice we have
in Congress today are a handfull of Congressmen that we have been able to send to Congress. All of them are in the House.
To achieve our goals we must strongly support legislators that believe in the Constitution and actively seek new candidates.
Write, Fax and Email elected officials and the general public. Don’t be a grazing sheep.
The closer civil government is to the people, the more responsible, responsive, and accountable it is likely to be.
The Constitution, itself, in
Articles I through VI, enumerates the powers which may be exercised
by the federal government. Of particular importance is
Article I, Section 8 which delineates the authority of the Congress.
“A constitutional republic means a representative polity established on fundamental law, each person has the right to pursue and fulfill his or her unobtrusive vision of the good life. In such a society, the common good is the cumulative product of free and equal individuals who pursue meaningful aims.”
–– Alexander Tsesis, in The Thirteenth Amendment and American Freedom: A Legal History
Countless government officials in the legislative, executive, and judicial branches of government take their oath to
uphold and defend the Constitution with no understanding of the responsibilities that oath entails. We need Citizen legislators
that will pledge to be faithful to this constitutional requirement and to work methodically to restore to the States and to the
people their rightful control over legislative, judicial, executive, and regulatory functions which are not constitutionally delegated
to the federal government.
“The Revolution was effected before the War commenced. The Revolution was in the minds and hearts of the people; a change in their religious sentiments of their duties and obligations. This radical change in the principles, opinions, sentiments, and affections of the people, was the real American Revolution.”
–– John Adams (1735-1826) Founding Father, 2nd US President
February 13, 1818

The federal government was clearly established as a government of limited authority. Government has no power,
except that which we the people have delegated to government through the Constitution of the United States.
The Tenth Amendment to the Constitution specifically provides that: “The powers not delegated to the United States bythe Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.”
Over time, the limitations of federal government
power imposed by the Constitution have been substantially eroded.Preservation
of constitutional government requires a restoration of the balance of authority between the federal government and the States as
provided in the Constitution, itself, and as intended and construed by those who framed and ratified that document.
We stand opposed to any regionalization of governments, at any level, which results in removal of decision-making
powers from the people or those directly elected by the people.
To return the control of government back to the people as intended.
The first step that must be taken is make drastic cuts in Federal regulations, spending and programs.
Greatly minimize taxes, and to limit the size, power, and function of government to the intended constraints established within the original Constitution and Bill of Rights.
Put
education back in the hands of parents, not the hands Federal Government.
Stop the assault on Traditional pro-family values from
radical groups, liberal activities judges, anti-God extremists, liberal
teachers ,the bias liberal media , and the socialists in congress
“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of “liberalism,” they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.”
–– Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

“Hold on, my friends, to the Constitution and to the Republic for which it stands. Miracles do not cluster, and what has happened once in 6000 years, may not happen again. Hold on to the Constitution, for if the American Constitution should fail, there will be anarchy throughout the world.”
–– Daniel Webster

— Thomas Jefferson

“I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to
reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal
them. It is not to inaugurate new programs, but to cancel old ones that do violence to the Constitution, or that have failed in their
purpose, or that impose on the people an unwarranted financial burden.
I will not attempt to discover whether legislation is 'needed' before I have first determined
whether it is constitutionally permissible. And if I should later be attacked for neglecting my constituents' interests, I shall reply that I was informed their
main interest is liberty and that in that cause I am doing the very best I can.”
