We Still Hold These Truths

Spaulding (The Heritage Foundation) expounds upon ten principles he sees as the core of the United States as a nation: liberty, equality, natural rights, consent of the governed, religious freedom, private property, the rule of law, constitutionalism, self-government, and independence. Material for the book was first presented as lectures and seminars given by the author as part of the Heritage Internship program and to Congressional Fellows programs designed to promote conservative policies.
