Mr. Republican's Political Philosophy


The core principle of the Republican Party
comes from the Preamble to the Constitution:
"We the people of the United States,
in order to form a more perfect union,
do ordain that every man is for himself."


Actually, one stated purpose of the Constitution is "to promote the general welfare," i.e., to promote the general well-being of US citizens. Alex Budarin
