From the 2012 GOP Platform – some things that are important to Republicans.
I believe that our:
- Country is exceptional
- Constitution should be honored, valued, and upheld
- Leaders should serve people, not special interests
- Families and communities should be strong and free from government intrusion
- Institution of traditional marriage is the foundation of society
- Government should be smaller, smarter and more efficient
- Health care decisions should be made by us and our doctors
- Paychecks should not be wasted on poorly run government programs
- Military must be strong and prepared to defend our shores
- Culture should respect and protect life
- Children should never be left in failing schools
- Veterans should have the best care and opportunities in the world
- Social programs should help lift people out of poverty
- America should be energy independent
These are the things that the Republican candidates should be talking about, and how they compare and contrast to the Democrat Party’s way of doing things. We should be talking about why we believe our way is better, and why, and demonstrating how these ideals have a proven track record.
