The American First Party was formed in order to conserve the principles stated in the Constitution. It strives to elect officials that will stick to these principles and use morality and common sense to serve the people. Some of it's goals are to protect America's citizens, aid in economic growth using free trade, support faith family, and responsibility in the life of every American, and to judge each race, sex, and culture equally under the law.
The members of the American First Party believe that any abortion is wrong. They believe that every person has a right to life given to them by God. To the members of this party, it doesn't matter what age the baby is. Life begins at conception. And to take away this life is against the law and the principles of our Founding Fathers and the Constitution.
At first glance, it seems that this party is most like Hobbes. The leaders of this party want to make abortion illegal, and therefore, constrict the rights of the mother. But I think that it's principles are really most like Locke's. The party is trying to preserve one of the natural rights of the child. The right to life. One of Locke's theories was that everyone has natural rights given to them by God. They are the rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
