Welcome, my name is John Wallace and I am an un-hypenated American citizen and an OathKeeper. I believe that we, the free people of America, are in danger of losing our individual Freedoms and Liberty to an ever growing and more intrusive federal government. The danger to our individual freedoms and liberty, as well as our nation's sovereignty, is directly linked to the unconstitutional actions of the federal government, under both Democrat and Republican administrations, that have been occuring over many, many decades.

The 2010 Election in the USA was a good beginning, but just a beginning, in a long journey to return constitutional government to the American people. The election showed that the Tea Party Movement in America is a growing and very powerful new political force in American politics and it is just beginning to force the federal government and the two major political parties to finally listen to the majority of the people. The American Tea Party Movement has also given the people in Europe a "How-To" guide to begin to free themselves from the New World Order's European Union and to return their own national independence and sovereignty to the people.

Here in America, we are only at the beginning stages of our peaceful revolution and "We the People" must steadfastly hold our elected official accountable for their actions and to the Constitution. Now is the time for us to act. Here are at least twenty-five (25) critical issues that I believe must be supported by candidates for federal office in the upcoming 2012 federal election in order for the American people to be able to reclaim their Liberty and restore our Republic:

1. NOW IS THE TIME to require that each piece of legislation identify the specific provision of the Constitution that gives congress the power to do what the bill says.
2. NOW IS THE TIME to require each bill or piece of legislation address only one specific issue and to require Representatives and Senators to affirm that they have read and understand each bill that they vote on.
3. NOW IS THE TIME to stop phoney "green" regulations based on junk science that has weakened America's manufacturing base, while doing nothing for the environment.
4. NOW IS THE TIME to stop the out-of-control federal deficit spending, balance the budget and require a two-thirds majority in each house to pass any tax increases.
5. NOW IS THE TIME to recind the fraudulently ratified 16th Amendment (Income Tax) that is in violation of Article V, a direct, un-apportioned tax on labor in violation of the tax clauses of Article I of the U.S. Constitutuon and relace it with a simple, fair and constitutional single-rate tax system.
6. NOW IS THE TIME to defund and repeal the federal Government-run Health Care. We must replace ObamaCare with a system that actually makes health care and insurance more affordable by enabling a competitive, open, transparent free-market health care system where health insurance isn't restricted by state boundaries.
7. NOW IS THE TIME to insitiute an "All of the Above Energy Policy" that authorizes the exploration of proven energy reserves to reduce our dependency on foreign energy sources from unstable countries and reduces regulatory barriers to all other forms of energy creation, thereby lowering prices and creating jobs.
8. NOW IS THE TIME to eliminate Earmarks as the process is nothing more than a payoff for bribes (contributions) received from special interest groups.
9. NOW IS THE TIME to make English the official language of the United States. Any immigrants who want the privilege of becomeing an American citizen must be proficient in the English language; all government business must be conducted in English only, including voting ballots.
10. NOW IS THE TIME to halt the invasion of illegal aliens into our country. We must secure our borders. Pull troops out of Europe and South Korea and reassign them to the southern border. We must cut off all financial aid of any kind, to illegal aliens and we must increase the penalties for any employers who knowingly hire them. We should institute a temporary moratorium on all immigration into this country; We need to strike down the Anchor Babies decision that allows the children born in America to illegal alien parents to automatically become American citizens.
11. NOW IS THE TIME to make the President “faithfully execute” all the laws passed by Congress, including the immigration laws currently in effect; and not bypass the laws through ececutive orders.
12. NOW IS THE TIME to reduce the size and scope of government. With the exception of the military and defense, reduce all departments by 2 percent each year, for a total reduction of size by 16 percent over eight years.
13. NOW IS THE TIME to identify Radical Islam as the enemy of America and use the accurate dscriptive words such as "terrorist" and "jihad" to describe them. We must use Profiling to Prevent Terror Attacks: The attempted terrorist plots on American soil follow definite patterns. All of these acts were carried out by radical Islamists. Prudent police work dictates that we immediately employ national and religious profiling to prevent these attacks.
14. NOW IS THE TIME to pass a Declaration of War against Radical Islamic Groups. Since the end of World War II, over 70,000 members of our military have diesd in undeclared wars in violation of the War Powers clauses of Articles I and II; We should never attack or invade any country without a Declaration of War.
15. NOW IS THE TIME to strengthen our military. They need to have the best training and the best equipment to win our wars, not seminars on diversity, affirmative action, gay rights and how to fight politically correct wars.
16. NOW IS THE TIME to declare that life and personhood begins at conception and to prohibit taxpayer funded abortions through organizations such as Planned Parenthood.
17. NOW IS THE TIME to end Affirmation Action and any other unconstitutional and discriminatory policies that give special advantage to certain groups over others because any discrimination against anyone, including white males, has no place in America.
18. NOW IS THE TIME to begin true Election Reform. We must require proof of citizenship at the ballot box when voting. We must eliminate motor-voter type registration where applicants do not have to prove they are citizens to register to vote. We are currently counting our votes in secret, as all machines do, in violation of our constitutional right not only to vote but to know that our votes are being accurately counted.
19. NOW IS THE TIME to stop the unconstitutional use of taxpayers money to bail out private companies for decidedly private purposes (corporate welfare), without any constitutional authority whatsoever.
20. NOW IS THE TIME to get out of that den of vipers called the United Nations. Not only must we get out of the United Nations to protect our sovereignty, but we must also get the United nations out of the USA.
21. NOW IS THE TIME to audit that private cabal of international banksters called the Federal Reserve. Eventually, the federal Reserve Board should be abolished and replaced with a government banking system.
22. NOW IS THE TIME to abolish the unconstitutional federal Department of Education that has completely destroyed the educational system in America. The funding for local schools can be transferred to another department and given to the states (or parents via a voucher system) without any strings attached.
23. NOW IS THE TIME to protect our country's sovereignty. We must end the executive branch's use of non-treaty agreements with foreign governments and other international bodies that have dissipated, destroyed and undermined America’s sovereignty;
24. NOW IS THE TIME to end the use of a fiat currency, backed by absolutely nothing, in violation of the money clauses of Article I of the Constitution. We need to insure that our currency is backed with something of value, like precious metals.
25. NOW IS THE TIME to require that all Presidential candidates for office be required to prove they meet all of the constitutional requirements to hold the office.

We live in a Republic - not a Democracy, where our government is supposed to protect our rights. Our individual rights are unalienable; they come from God: Government does not give us any rights and our rights cannot be taken away by any government, and that includes Freedom of Speech, Private Property Rights and the Right ot Bear Arms. Although our Constitution protects our rights, the Constitution cannot protect or defend itself from those who would destroy it. It is the duty of the free people of America to defend it. Our country's Founders told us that "Governments get their just powers from the consent of the governed and whenever the government becomes destructive of these ends, it is not only the people's Right, but it is their sacred Duty to change the government."

Thomas Jefferson said: "When the people fear their government, there is Tyranny; when the government fears the people, there is Liberty!"

Let us select worthy candidates for the Presidency, the Senate and the House of Representatives who believe in the Republic and support the original intent of the Constitution. Together, let us begin a journey to restore our Republic that will leave future generations of Americans a legacy of individual freedom and liberty, a first class, non-government run education system, a clean environment, a strong and sovereign America with an honest, limited, constitutional government that will offer unlimited opportunities for their future. If we stand together and act now, we can give it to them.

For Freedom, Liberty and Sovereignty,

John Wallace
