Survey of 2024 Presidential campaign websites: on Principles & Values


Robert F. Kennedy Jr.: Our priority will be to restore America's moral leadership

The country is ailing, yes, but underneath there is vitality still. America was once an inspiration to the world, a beacon of freedom and democracy. Our priority will be nothing less than to restore our moral leadership. We will lead by example. When a warlike imperial nation disarms of its own accord, it sets a template for peace everywhere. It is not too late for us to voluntarily let go of empire and serve peace instead, as a strong and healthy nation.

Larry Elder: America in decline, but we can enter new American Golden Age

America is in decline, but this decline is not inevitable. It is a choice made by detached and cynical politicians. As a California resident, I've seen firsthand how decades of Democrat rule have turned the Golden State, for many, into an unaffordable dystopia. I won't let them do the same to America. We can enter a new American Golden Age, but we must choose a leader who can bring us there. That's why I'm running for President. I'm Larry Elder, and we've got a country to save.

Marianne Williamson: Help country atone for genocide against Native Americans

Through economic renewal, societal respect, artistic expression and--most importantly--a president intent on helping Americans atone for genocide and cultural annihilation, we will seek to heal as much as possible what has been broken and begin the historic process of writing a new American story. Through a spirit of genuine atonement, colonial America will reconcile with a horrific past relationship to Native Americans, so that we can all move forward together, as a stronger nation.

Tim Scott: I will preserve one nation, under God, indivisible

Under Joe Biden, we have become a nation in retreat. Retreating from religious liberty and the worship of God himself. I will preserve one nation, Under God, indivisible--where we honor our Creator and respect every innocent life.

Tim Scott: Americans have won the lottery of citizenship

Celebrate our Founding Fathers, not cancel them. Americans have won the lottery of citizenship. Each generation must pass on the appreciation for the magnificence of our U.S. Constitution and the God-given rights it protects while cherishing the power of American exceptionalism.

Will Hurd: US is exceptional nation because of what we've given

America has become an exceptional nation not because of what we have taken but what we have given. We need a foreign policy that inspires fear in our enemies and causes our friends to love us.

Corey Stapleton: Pay it Forward: invest in children's future

Pay it Forward is the idea that each of us belongs to an American society, and those who lived before us sacrificed and 'paid' for many of the things we now enjoy. In the same way, we want to invest in the futures of our children and grandchildren.

Stephen Laffey: While parties fight, our American exceptionalism slips away

To find out what really matters to our two parties, just check their respective national websites. No solutions there. They do emphasize their raison d'etre: The other party is terrible. Aided by a news cycle that feeds upon the proverbial daily food fight, the media accentuate the attacks on each other while we watch our American exceptionalism start to slip away.

Asa Hutchinson: That rights are from God foundational to American success

Our nation's founders understood that rights are not given by man, but rather bestowed upon us by our Creator. This worldview is foundational to good governance and the success of the United States of America. The success of any democracy is dependent upon agreement on a set of values. Today, we have a nation divided and we must return to what brings us together and not what pulls us apart. That is why it is so important that we seek out leaders that bring out the best in America rather than those that give in to our worst instincts. I believe that we must respect dissent and stand together on the common ground of freedom, equality, and fairness.

Ryan Binkley: Strive to create a culture that honors God in all that we do

Ryan and his wife, Ellie, are founders of Create Church, a multiethnic, multigenerational church in Richardson, Texas. As lead pastor, his deep passion is to see church members of all walks of life discover and live out their purpose. At Generational Group [where Ryan is the CEO], Ryan views business as more than just a means to financial success. It's a way to serve employees and the community. "We strive to create a culture that respects one another and one that honors God in all that we do."

The problems we face, and the blame we lay, can all be rectified if we look to God, find the good in our fellow Americans, and resolve to trust each other one more time. I think we can all agree that we will not always agree. But what we can do is focus on those things that bring us together instead of those that tear us apart. That's the way to freedom.
