President of the Congress of Racial equality Roy Innis: "To make inexpensive guns impossible to get is to say that you're putting a money test on getting a gun. It's racism in its worst form."

A government big enough to give you everything you want is a government big enough to take from you everything you have." Gerald Ford in a Presidential address to a joint session of Congress (12 August 1974)

Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free. Ronald Reagan - address to the annual meeting of the Phoenix Chamber of Commerce, 1961.

Of the four wars in my lifetime, none came about because the U.S. was too strong. Ronald Reagan - acceptance speech at 1984 Republican National Convention.

"We the people" tell the government what to do, it doesn't tell us. "We the people" are the driver, the government is the car. And we decide where it should go, and by what route, and how fast. Almost all the world's constitutions are documents in which governments tell the people what their privileges are. Our Constitution is a document in which "We the people" tell the government what it is allowed to do. "We the people" are free. Ronald Reagan's farewell address, 1989.
