We believe the United States of America is facing unprecedented perils and a critical decline in our unique culture, history and form of government. The New Mexico Patriot Alliance is determined to take a stand against the forces, both foreign and domestic, that threaten our future and very existence. We believe that the normal channels for change, namely our current government, politics, voting and the media, have become so controlled and corrupt that they no longer represent the truth or the will of most Americans. In this state of total disarray, there is no longer a realistic means of restoring and upholding the original vision or intent of our founding fathers, as expressed in our Declaration of Independence, Constitution and Bill of Rights.
Today we find ourselves, just like our founding fathers, in the midst of a serious struggle for freedom and the future of our republic. We now face an agonizing choice of submitting to corruption and tyranny, or the relinquishment of our essential, unalienable rights and liberties. For us the choice has become clear, and we have no other recourse but to actively resist those who ignore or refuse to uphold the Constitution and who seem determined to reshape our nation into something entirely different.
Our Cause
The essential nature and purpose of American government is to secure and protect the God-given rights of its citizens. Government exists and functions solely for this purpose. Our founding fathers clearly understood the sinful human tendencies of man, and they knew that human governments would inevitably be a reflection of these tendencies. Left unchecked, the tyranny of government will continue to grow and consume the resources and liberties of the people.
Our founding fathers believed that man possessed unalienable rights from our Creator, and that it was the inherent right of the people to ultimately decide and direct their own government. It was their distinct understanding that our American form of government would thrive and succeed only with the consent of those who were governed. Just as they had done against the tyranny of the British Crown, these patriots held firm to the idea that it was the right and responsibility of American citizens to question or challenge their government, and if necessary to alter or abolish it in pursuit of another that would more accurately and fully represent their wishes.
Unfortunately, these changes have taken place very gradually and often secretly, so that the American people would accept and grow accustomed to them. Through the manipulation of events and shifts in our culture, we have allowed ourselves to become what we once despised. Our nation is now heavily socialistic and our leaders appear determined to sell out America to globalism and ultimately create a totalitarian state. Along the way, they will sacrifice our liberties, national sovereignty and security.
Our cause, therefore, is to restore the vision and foundations of our founding fathers. As they confronted, challenged and eventually defeated the greatest empire on earth at that time, so we also must develop the same conviction, courage, and resolve today. It is imperative that we find a way to unite all like-minded individuals and groups for this common cause, and to this end we now strive.
Our Dilemma
Numerous groups are working hard to restore Constitutional principles in our nation, yet there is not an overall unity or a cohesive strategy between them. Most are focused on a particular issue, such as abortion, illegal immigration, property rights, taxes, etc. Unfortunately, this often becomes a never-ending battle to put out individual wildfires, and without a coordinated effort to wake up the American people this will not be enough to stop the raging forest fire that threatens to engulf our entire nation. - Dave Batcheller, The Downward Spiral: Decline of the American Dream
We are all fighting a war on many fronts, which has effectively divided our troops and resources. This is why we have been so easy to defeat. If we can pool our resources and agree to fight this cultural war on one front, and focus our energies on one specific objective, we can be unstoppable. – John Diamond, The Rise of America
