Ben Loyola Endorsed by American Freedom Project


As we approach Election Day, we’re proud to announce yet another endorsement to add to the many grassroots conservative activists who support Ben Loyola for Congress.

Mike Prunty, Founder & President of the American Freedom Project, joins with the Hampton Roads Tea Party and others urging you to vote Tuesday and vote for Ben Loyola.

“Like the Hampton Roads Tea Party, I was originally going to refrain from endorsing any of the Republican candidates in Virginia’s second district. Nevertheless, I was ultimately drawn to make observations of the multitude of candidates competing for the nomination.

“But who were these people and where did they come from? Having learned from past experience to be skeptical, I asked myself “why should I believe them?” Anyone can hire a manager or an advisor to research talking points on the issues of the day. And I must say, that is what most of them sounded like…like robots repeating their lines.

“If I “detect” pure ego and ambition, you won’t get my support. Convince me that your principles are rock solid. Convince me that you have more than an agenda…convince me that you are on a serious mission to return America once again to its greatness!!

“Ben Loyola has finally done that. He has been bold enough to put all of his credibility on the line with the pledge he has outlined below:

• Vote against any tax or fee increases.
• Support the elimination of the estate tax (Death Tax).
• Introduce and support legislation to eliminate all subsidies.
• Support legislation to repeal the Obama health care initiative.
• Support legislation opposing the Cap and Trade initiative.
• Introduce and support legislation to eliminate corporate taxes.
• Introduce and support legislation to eliminate the Income Tax.
• Introduce and support legislation for a mandatory balanced budget.
• Introduce and support legislation to eliminate the Department of Education.
• Only support a military invasion of another sovereign nation by a Declaration of War.
• Support legislation to counter provisions established by the Supreme Court's ruling on eminent domain and private property rights. Private property should never be condemned for economic development purposes benefiting third parties or developers.
• Only support new spending initiatives that are matched by a two-to-one reduction in areas of non-defense, discretionary spending.
• Fully support the enforcement of laws that protect the United States from the invasion of illegal aliens. There is but one way to become a citizen in this country and that is by following the law.

~ Resign from office if any of these promises are broken ~

“Any of the candidates are capable of uttering such pledges as those listed above, but the last line is “the deal maker.” If he is willing to RESIGN upon failure to live up to his stated pledges with the entire world as a witness, then he is someone I choose to believe. I believe Ben Loyola is dead serious about his “passionate mission” to apply sacred conservative Founding principles to the operation of our government as the reason for his running for office. As someone who heads an organization solely dedicated to the advancement of the conservative movement nationwide building from the grassroots on up, I wish to join my friends and colleagues in the HAMPTON ROADS TEA PARTY with my enthusiastic and proud endorsement of Ben Loyola for the Republican nomination to the United States Congress from Virginia’s great second district.

“I urge you to cast your vote for Ben Loyola on Tuesday, June 8th.

“May God once again bless America.”
