§ Statement of Purpose

The View from 1776 presents a framework to understand present-day issues from the viewpoint of the colonists who fought for American independence in 1776 and wrote the Constitution in 1787. Knowing and preserving those understandings, what might be called the unwritten constitution of our nation, is vital to preserving constitutional government. Without them, the bare words of the Constitution are just a Rorschach ink-blot that politicians, educators, and judges can interpret to mean anything they wish.

"We have no government armed with the power capable of contending with human passions, unbridled by morality and true religion. Our constitution is made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other." John Adams, to the Officers of the First Brigade, Third Division, Massachusetts Militia, October 11, 1798.

ACLU and the Mafia

Purporting to protect citizens’ constitutional rights, the ACLU in reality works to make the atheistic and secular religion of socialism the exclusive, unconstitutionally established national religion.

Read this article on the First Things website to see how the ACLU’s intimidation tactics are essentially the Mafia’s tactic of intimidation to extort payment for “protection.”
