To fix America's problems, start with these 7 Credible Threats.

7 "Credible Threats" that are Destroying America.

"America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and

lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves."

Abraham Lincoln

Every organization that exists must fill a void, answer a question or solve a problem to be successful.  While there are many legitimate and far-reaching issues impacting our society today, we believe at the root of these issues are the 7 Credible Threats that are destroying America right before our eyes.

These are not incomprehensible problems occurring only on an international level.  These are right-now problems we see in our own neighborhoods you and I can solve ... together.

1.  Secularism / We Have Turned Our Backs On God

The "separation of Church and State" was never meant to be an exclusionary clause designed to remove faith from our lives.  Yet, the Progressive Secular Left has managed over the years to do just that.  Our faith has never been under assault to the extent we see in modern times, and it is this very assault that has led to the erosion of the value system that made our nation great.  With your help, our combined efforts can, and must, change that.



2.  Apathy & Defeatism Have Drained Us

It has been rightly said that "apathy is the last virtue of a dying society." We believe that to be true.  We now find ourselves in a culture that tolerates with no restraints from fear of being labeled "intolerant." We unwittingly empower those who strive to steal our values from us.  Nevertheless, from our faith springs hope. From hope comes action.  The United States has a current and real deficit ... of hope.  With your help, our combined efforts can, and must, change that.



3.  We Lost Our Collective Voice

Our liberally-biased media, rampant political correctness and culture of censorship has reached Orwellian proportions.  Those who oppose us did not steal our freedom of speech; we allowed it to be taken from us. George Washington warned us 236 years ago "If the freedom of speech is taken away then dumb and silent we may be led, like sheep to the slaughter."  With your help, our combined efforts can, and must, change that.



4.  Our Family Structure Is Under Attack

The traditional family is the most important core unit of our society.The destruction of that core unit will surely lead to the destruction of our society which has been built upon that core.  Pre-teen pregnancy, same-sex parents, sexually transmitted viruses, gender reorientation, and a variety of other problems have been forced upon us, by the few, in the name of "tolerance."  An anti-faith lobby has convinced America that losing our traditional family won't weaken America.  With your help, our combined efforts can, and must, change that.



5.  Our Education System Has Failed Us

We took God out of the classroom to "protect" our children. The results are a disaster.  More than 50% of our public schools are failing.  Inner-city schools are war zones.  Our graduates are no longer competitive in the market.  Drop-out rates in some schools exceed 80%.  Instead of "aiming high," we have adjusted downward.  If this dire situation continues -- we lose our future.  With your help, our combined efforts can, and must, change that.



6.  Our Safety & Security Is Threatened

As citizens of the United States, we trade some of our freedoms to have those who govern us protect our society.  That's not happening.  With the assault on our moral center has come rampant crime, increased violence and the breakdown of our American society. We are now prisoners in our own homes, fearing the savagery a faithless society has produced without remorse.  With your help, our combined efforts can, and must, change that.



7.  A Truly Satanic Threat Seeks To Destroy Us

There exists today a threat that seeks to destroy our God, our country and our way of life.  It represents the personification of "Pure Evil," and it has a name:  Islam.  Islam has repeated shown itself to be capable of unspeakable atrocities.  Islam has no regard for any human life.  In the name of "Allah" Christians (and others) are slaughtered by the thousands.  Tragically, Islam has been welcomed openly in America with no restraints.  With your help, our combined efforts can, and must, change that.


But Now We Can Have Hope!


These 7 Credible Threats are the poisoned well from which all other currently unholy endeavors spring forth and flow. These threats stand poised to strip our country of its faith, its values and its ability to reclaim the American greatness and exceptionalism our Founding Fathers intended for us and our children.

"Therefore, rejoice, O heavens and you who dwell in them! But woe to you, O earth and sea, for the devil has come down to you in great wrath, because he knows that his time is short!” (Revelation 12:12)

You and I, our families, and our friends, already see these threats around us every day.  They are now very close, not vague and off in the distance.  They are real, not imagined.  We, as real patriotic Americans, have a Godly duty and spiritual obligation to use both the strength provided to us by God, and the rights provided by our Constitution to turn our country around and reclaim it as our own.

In the important words of Theodore Roosevelt, "This country will not be a good place for any of us to live in unless we make it a good place for all of us to live in."  We couldn't agree more. We are absolutely  willing to do our part to make this God-driven mission a success.  We ask you, and all those who share our commitment to God and Country, to join us on this mission to save America from total destruction.

He who is unjust, let him be unjust still; he who is filthy, let him be filthy still; he who is righteous, let him be righteous still; he who is holy, let him be holy still.  And behold, I am coming quickly, and My reward is with Me, to give to every one according to his work.  (Revelation 22:11-12)

With your help, our combined efforts can, and will, be successful for our Lord.  Thank you, and God Bless you!

When Principles Are As Important As Political Gain

Rick Santorum represents everything that's right with faith-based leadership.

Sadly, the political process shows us what's wrong with America.

With just five days until the New Hampshire primaries, Rick Santorum has his work cut out for him.  

And if the stress of running for a presidential nomination weren't grueling enough, Santorum's refusal to compromise on his values has unleashed a firestorm of criticism from the mainstream media that is sure to cast doubt within the ranks of an uninformed electorate.

There will be no shortage of political commentary in the days leading up to the NH primary.  My interest in Santorum -- and what I hope will be your interest as well -- is Santorum's ability to be competitive on a national stage after losing his last race for his Senate seat in 2007.

In the Senate, Santorum became known for his social conservatism. He led efforts to ban late-term abortions and led the unsuccessful GOP fight in 2005 to keep Terri Schiavo, a Florida woman who was diagnosed as being in a vegetative state, attached to life-preserving medical equipment.

He derided a 2003 Supreme Court decision that declared a Texas sodomy law unconstitutional, saying, "If the Supreme Court says that you have the right to consensual sex within your home, then you have the right to bigamy, you have the right to polygamy, you have the right to incest, you have the right to adultery."

Santorum's stances earned him a solid following among religious conservatives and a spot on Time magazine's 25 most influential evangelists list in 2005.

It also earned him the enmity of many Democrats, women's groups, abortion rights advocates and gay rights supporters, who disliked Santorum's faith-based stance.

Knowing this, most candidates would have moderated their message, and tailored their political stance to the polls.  Santorum's campaign staff urged him on many occasions to do just that, or risk the election.  He refused to compromise his values and ended up losing the Senatorial election for that very reason.

Does that make him politically naive, and unworthy to guide the United States as President?  Or does that make him the perfect candidate for a nation that is becoming increasingly morally bankrupt, and unable to maintain a conviction separate from the most recent public opinion poll?

He is the champion of the average guy -- the forgotten American -- who pays his taxes, fights for freedom and doesn't expect a handout.

He realizes that it isn't only the threat of Jihadism from abroad that threatens our nation, but an internal loss of confidence, an unwillingness to recognize and defend the exceptional nature of this country.

Though he lost at the ballot box in his last electoral attempt, he did not stop beating the drum for fiscal reform and a strong defense for the nation. He is a stalwart advocate of traditional American principles and has not wavered on these matters the balance of the current GOP contenders have done -- many times -- over the years.

Win or lose, private or public sector, Santorum's principles and values have remained steadfast and unshakable.  When did that become a character liability for an individual running for President?

As I was reading a story on the New Hampshire primary this morning on CNN, the following statement jumped out at me.  "The general electorate is now seeing the stark divisions within the GOP up close and personal," says Brown University political scientist Wendy Schiller. "Libertarian, social conservative, and fiscal conservative. Will the real GOP stand up?"

That's telling in and of itself.  The Republican Party has lost its self-identity, and those who support the party are at a crossroads.  It's my opinion that the party will be defined by our choice in 2012 for many years to come, and the thought that "Faith, Family and Freedom" are values outside the mainstream is a chilling proposition.

Thankfully, faith-based conservatives are finally catching on to the Santorum message.  As reported on Fox News this morning, Santorum, who finished just eight votes behind Romney in Tuesday's caucuses, has already seen a surge of online donations, enough to cripple his campaign's website shortly after the Iowa results were announced.

I encourage everyone interested in the political process -- who believes values still have a place in our political process -- to research Rick Santorum and consider supporting the only candidate who has not waivered in his beliefs.

Win or lose, I don't believe we can ever do the "wrong thing" by voting for the "right person."

Welcome to the American Independence Alliance Blog

A place for faith-based patriots of the United States of America
to seek Fellowship and effect Positive Change.

We dare not forget that we are the heirs of that first revolution. 

John F. Kennedy

We would like to take the opportunity to welcome our visitors to the American Independence Alliance blog.  We hope you had a wonderful holiday and a safe New Year, and are prepared for the challenges and opportunities that lay ahead for us in 2012.

As you will read in the mission statement pages at the top of this site, AIA was created in response to a series of critical issues that threatens the very fabric of America.  Faith is under assault, our values are being discarded, and our system of government is being destroyed from the inside out by the Secular Progressive Left.

We have prioritized these critical issues under the label of the 7 Credible Threats.  Our writing and political actions will address the challenges stemming from threats.  We are also pursuing a grassroots movement to counteract these threats on a local level across the United States.

Articles will be posted on the blog every day, Monday through Saturday, at 4:00 PM EST.  We encourage you to bookmark the blog and check in daily.  We also ask you to post comments for each article, and share our faith-based message throughout your social media circles such as Facebook and Twitter.

With your help, our combined efforts can, and will, be successful for our God and our great Country.  Thank you, and God Bless you!
