We
Believe…
The
proper
function
of
government
is to do
for the
people
those
things
that
have to
be done
but
cannot
be done,
or
cannot
be done
as well,
by
individuals,
and that
the most
effective
government
is
government
closest
to the
people.
We
Believe…
Good
government
is based
upon the
individual
and that
each
person's
ability,
dignity,
freedom,
and
responsibility
must be
honored
and
recognized.
We
Believe…
The free
enterprise
and the
encouragement
of
individual
initiative
and
incentive
have
given
this
nation
an
economic
system
second
to none.
We
Believe…
Sound
money
management
should
be our
goal.
We
Believe…
In equal
right,
equal
justice
and
equal
opportunity
for all,
regardless
of race,
creed,
age, sex
or
national
origin.
We
Believe…
We must
retain
those
principles
of the
past
worth
retaining,
yet
always
be
receptive
to new
ideas
with an
outlook
broad
enough
to
accommodate
thoughtful
change
and
varying
points
of view.
We
Believe…
That
Americans
value
and
should
preserve
their
feeling
of
national
strength
and
pride,
and at
the same
time
share
with
people
everywhere
a desire
for
peace
and
freedom
and the
extension
of human
rights
throughout
the
world.
We Believe…
The
Republican
Party is
the best
vehicle
for
translating
these
ideals
into
positive
and
successful
principles
of
government.
