Origin of the 912 Project

The 912 Project idea was put forward by radio host Glenn Beck in 2009 after a wave of Americans stood up against the political shift towards Marxist ideas antithetical to American principles. During the Tea Party wave, 912 began as “We Surround Them”. The 912 idea was to commemorate how we united after we were attacked on September 11th, 2001. After that horrific attack, parties didn’t matter; we were fellow Americans under one banner. However, it dissolved quickly. Many reverted to politics as usual where rule of man overrides rule of law. Unfortunately, there are many in America who do not adhere to our foundational principles, and are influential especially in media, entertainment, religious establishments, education and politics.

9 Principles

1. America Is Good.
2. I believe in God and He is the Center of my Life.
3. I must always try to be a more honest person than I was yesterday.
4. The family is sacred. My spouse and I are the ultimate authority, not the government.
5. If you break the law, you pay the penalty. Justice is blind and no one is above it.
6. I have a right to life, liberty and pursuit of happiness, but there is no guarantee of equal results.
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.
8. It is not un-American for me to disagree with authority or to share my personal opinion.
9. The government works for me. I do not answer to them, they answer to me.

At Volusia 912 we encourage ourselves and others to put God first, to read the Bible, join a church that upholds the Word of God and to learn what it means to be an American. Read the Federalist Papers, the Anti-Federalist, the Constitutional Convention notes and related writings by our Founding Fathers. Don’t just profess to be an American, be an American!
