America was founded to be a beacon of liberty, particularly religious liberty. The framers of our Constitution sought to preserve religious liberty to such an extent that they made it the first right protected in the Bill of Rights.

Our Founding Fathers drafted the Bill of Rights to ensure that We the People could determine how best to protect our communities.

The sacrifices ordinary American men and women from communities large and small have been willing to make, often before they were past their teenage years, have secured our nation unprecedented freedoms and made us the world's bulwark of liberty.

Our founders insisted that protecting the states' power to govern themselves was vital to limit the power of Washington and preserve freedom.

The Founders who crafted our Constitution and Bill of Rights were careful to draft a Constitution of limited powers - one that would protect Americans' liberty at all times - both in war, and in peace.

For the freedoms our founding fathers not only dreamed about, but made into reality. It is that same pursuit of freedom today that is helping to make our world a safer place.

Our nation was founded on the principals of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

Whenever we take away the liberties of those whom we hate we are opening the way to loss of liberty for those we love.

It is essential that all Americans take the time to honor and remember those individuals who gave their lives in defense of our liberty.

In the over two centuries since the signing of the Declaration of Independence, millions of Americans have bravely served our nation in uniform so that all generations can continue to enjoy those same liberties.
