We the citizens of the Constitution Party of Oregon believe that there are seven fundamental principles which must not be compromised, and which are necessary for the preservation and future of these United States:
We believe in Divine Providence and recognize our Creator as the author of human life. Thus, we believe in the absolute sanctity of human life.
The first duty of civil government is the protection of innocent human life from conception until natural death, no exceptions. When government sanctions abortion, then all lives are at risk.
| Life | Liberty | Family | Property | Sovereignty |
| The Constitution | Limited, Local Government | |

Far from granting license to 'do whatever we want', true liberty comes from God and real freedom is born of self-government. With James Madison, we assert the precious American ideal which set our country apart from other nations...
"We have staked the whole future of American Civilization, not upon the power of government, far from it. We have staked the whole future ...upon the capacity of each of us to govern ourselves, according to the ten commandments of God."
| Life | Liberty | Family | Property | Sovereignty |
| The Constitution | Limited, Local Government | |

Our Creator set in place the family as the first divinely instituted form of government.
It is the duty of civil government to recognize and protect the authority of the family unit.
When the state usurps the family's authority, the hearts of the children are turned to the state, rather than to the fathers. Such socialist actions deny the created order and harm our communities.

We believe that the right of individuals to own and steward their property is God given; established in such commandments as "Thou shalt not steal." and "Thou shalt not covet."
We encourage private generosity, but oppose the forced transfer of one's wealth to others by the state.
We believe that loss of 'external' property rights leads to the loss of 'internal' rights of personal conscience. It was James Madison who said,
"Conscience is the most sacred of all property."
