What is The 9-12 Project?

This is our page to help promote The 9-12 Project started by Glenn Beck. I believe in this cause and want to help spread the word about it. I also have here all the books recommended by Glenn Beck as part of The 9-12 Project and on his show.

Many people currently feel powerless in this social and political climate in America. The 9-12 Project is about reminding the people of this country that we do have power.

We outnumber the politicians, or as Glenn Beck put it when introducing The 9-12 Project, "We surround them." We can make a difference.

Visit The 9-12 Project to see the site created by Glenn Beck. Be warned, the servers are often overloaded. If you get an error, just try again later. In the meantime, you can look over my summary of The 9-12 Project and a few products I have created to help promote it.

The 9 Principles from The 9-12 Project 

1. America Is Good.

2. I believe in God and He is the Center of my Life.
God "The propitious smiles of Heaven can never be expected on a nation that disregards the external rules of order and right which Heaven itself has ordained." from George Washington's first Inaugural address.

3. I must always try to be a more honest person than I was yesterday.
Honesty "I hope that I shall always possess firmness and virtue enough to maintain what I consider to be the most enviable of all titles, the character of an honest man." George Washington

4. The family is sacred. My spouse and I are the ultimate authority, not the government.
Marriage/Family "It is in the love of one's family only that heartfelt happiness is know. By a law of our nature, we cannot be happy without the endearing connections of a family." Thomas Jefferson

5. If you break the law you pay the penalty. Justice is blind and no one is above it.
Justice "I deem one of the essential principles of our government%u2026 equal and exact justice to all men of whatever state or persuasion, religious or political." Thomas Jefferson

6. I have a right to life, liberty and pursuit of happiness, but there is no guarantee of equal results.
Life, Liberty, & The Pursuit of Happiness "Everyone has a natural right to choose that vocation in life which he thinks most likely to give him comfortable subsistence." Thomas Jefferson

7. I work hard for what I have and I will share it with who I want to. Government cannot force me to be charitable.
Charity "It is not everyone who asketh that deserveth charity; all however, are worth of the inquiry or the deserving may suffer." George Washington

8. It is not un-American for me to disagree with authority or to share my personal opinion.
On your right to disagree "In a free and republican government, you cannot restrain the voice of the multitude; every man will speak as he thinks, or more properly without thinking." George Washington

9. The government works for me. I do not answer to them, they answer to me.
Who works for whom? "I consider the people who constitute a society or a nation as the source of all authority in that nation." Thomas Jefferson

These are taken directly from The 9-12 Project.

I whole-heartedly agree with all of them. I particularly like how he included a quote from the Founding Fathers for each of the 9 principles.

Exposing news & media bias, liberal bias with examples of media bias

This is not directly related to The 9-12 project, but they often have stories that you won't find on other media sources. I also think they are the kind of stories that will be of interest to those who support The 9-12 Project

    I'd like to see other merchandise that doesn't say 9/12 or have anything to do with anti Obama....check out http://www.freedomstyles.com. I am a decendant of Thomas McKean, signer of the Decleration of Independence and was inspired to create this shirt and website. It comes from my heart...just having a hard time getting the word out~

    I like the 12 virtues more than the 912 list: I'm curious about the first two: one, America is only as good as America acts; second, the founding fathers were deists, not Christians, and they merely believed that morality was necessary for a good society. As long as a person is religious and moral, then I am with you on the second rule. The importance in society is the upside-down pyramid: individual, family, community, county, state, country, in that order.

    I'm creating some similar pages on America, so we aim for a common idea.

    Regardless of who is in office, whether we "like" or "dislike" them, it is the policies and agendas that matter (although at times it is difficult to separate the two). It is our responsibility as citizens of this great country to vote, speak, lead and most of all PAY ATTENTION!

    Whichever side you stand on, we can surely agree on that!

    "As the Government of the United States of America is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion; as it has in itself no character of enmity against the laws, religion, or tranquillity, of Musselmen; and as the said States never have entered into any war or act of hostility against any Mehomitan nation, it is declared by the parties that no pretext arising from religious opinions shall ever produce an interruption of the harmony existing between the two countries." -- Article 11 of the Treaty of Tripoli, 1796.

    Where do people keep coming up with the idea that the Founding Fathers were some sort of fundamentalist cadre? You don't trust Obama, I get it... Well why do you trust Glenn Beck, someone who admittedly is dependent upon drumming up viewership in order to make a living? Dial back the New World Order crazy in your posts, read some historical texts, turn off the Glenn Beck and think for yourself!
