Patrick Henry, March 23rd,1775

"Is life so dear, or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty GOD! I know not what Course others may take, but as for Me, give me liberty, or give me Death".

Paraphrased , Sept. 2001

Is false security so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty GOD! I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty, or give me Death.

On Feburary 15, 2009 our name was changed to: East Gulf Coast Conservative Assembly, and although still being republicans, we will support or oppose candidates based upon their principled conservatism over their party affiliation.


   Thank you for visiting our web site! Allow me to introduce myself, my name is Stan Smith.

I am currently the president of the East Gulf Coast Conservative Assembly.

The East Gulf Coast Conservative Assembly establishes it's standards by the people who founded our great nation under the laws given to us by almighty God. It is our intention, to the best of our ability, to conduct our activities under His devine inspiration and leadership. During the last election cycle, Eric Story, John Faulk, and 3 other candidates formed a coalition with standards the EGCCA will follow. These standards are at www.teamamericafirst.com In brief, those ideals are represented in the following guidelines:



   Liberty demands the greatest of self-restraint and INDIVIDUAL responsibility. As a society, liberty is the greatest gift we can leave to future generations.

Conservatism without the moral anchor defined by God is baseless and void. We assert that God's law, as defined in the Holy Scriptures, is supreme in our land. Our laws and system of justice must demonstrate a reverence for devine law in the public forum, without prejudice to any single denomination.

Government is a servant of the people and our candidates for public office should also exemplify the spirit of servanthood. Our founders were precise in their beliefs regarding the responsibilities of the citizen versus the obligations of government. Our constitution must be interpreted in the light of the founders' intent. Our constitution is an instrument of delegated powers; thus our federal government only has the powers granted to it by the constitution and all other power is constrained by that instrument.

We hold to principle over politics. We must elect and support statesmen over unprincipled politicians.

We must restrain ourselves from borrowing from the future to finance indulgences of today.

We must protect the institution of marriage as ordained by God, being one man and one woman joined in a holy contract, as the cornerstone of civilization.

We oppose any form of world government, including our involvement in the United Nations. All of America's officials, both elected and unelected, must always act to preserve the sovereignty and security of these United States.

Autonomous states are a protection against federal usurpation of citizens' rights, and we must reinstate the state's sovereign authority over public lands within their borders.

We believe the responsibility of citizenship does not end at the ballot box, but rather the price of liberty is eternal vigilance. The good citizen is one who actively works to insure the blessings of liberty for our posterity. This includes the "duty" (not just right) to, in the words of our forefathers, be "well-regulated" in the handling and use of firearms, and to guard with diligence against any and all attempts to restrain private training of, ownership or wearing of those arms.

Our country is in crisis. The economy flourishes but our families and our society are in turmoil.

We are committed to the above mentioned principles. We are committed to helping leave our country better off than when we first entered it. We are committed to helping candidates who are honest, hard working and support our conservative values. I encourage you to email us today or call our phone number at 281-648-7686.

God Bless you and your family,

Stan Smith, President
East Gulf Coast Conservative Assembly
