In memory
This website is dedicated to the memory of the brilliant co-founder of The Proud Majority, Richard Hissrich, who passed away in 2022. After retiring from a distinguished IT management career, Rich dedicated himself full-time to the country he so loved. Always a voracious reader, he became a true Constitutional scholar, and he authored each White Paper posted to date on this site. Rich was the quintessential American patriot whose passion for America and reverence for the Constitution continue to inspire all of us.
Who We Are
Today the divide between the Right and the Left is growing wider, and the probable outcome is dire for the country that we love. It is more important than ever that we find a way to bridge this divide and return to our founding principles.
Our goal is to touch the hearts and minds of people, especially our youth, and enable them to understand the virtues of the American experiment.
As a service-minded group, we are committed to spreading the truth about American history, America’s founding principles and values, and the benefits of strict adherence to the U.S. Constitution.
America’s founding principles are simple, elegant, and completely aligned with human nature. They provide an ideal balance between freedom, equality, responsibility, morality, and compassion for others. They encourage everyone to achieve their God-given potential, while providing a strong, secure, prosperous, and healthy community.
Our products and services are designed to be educational about the U.S. Constitution and America’s founding principles.
What We Offer
America’s political discourse is divisive lately and we can help you to separate the facts from the emotionally charged fiction. We offer the opportunity to examine both sides and help you to identify the truth. We are committed to teaching people to develop critical thinking skills (how to think) and to recognize distortions meant to influence your opinion (what to think).
Our intellectual property consists of a collection of literature and presentations on critical topics of our times
Our expertise in meeting techniques and established facilitated meeting principles provide us with an opportunity to create interactive and rewarding discussions that promote learning.
Our relationships with organizations and people who share our vision allow us to supplement our efforts in the community.
