The Foundation

Words to consider as we prepare to vote:

"We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. … Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other."

~John Adams
One of the Founding Fathers, and 2nd President of The United States


"We have staked the whole future of American civilization, not upon the power of government, far from it. We have staked the future of all of our political institutions upon the capacity of each and all of us to govern ourselves, to control ourselves, to sustain ourselves according to the Ten Commandments of God."

~James Madison
One of The Founding Fathers, Considered the ‘Father’ of our Constitution
