The Will of We the People
The concept of national sovereignty, sovereign citizens, and the will of the people are core concepts that must be understood in order for us, as United States citizens, to fully grasp the importance and necessity of an educated and involved citizenry. Likewise, it is important to explore the idea of the will of the people and how it can be measured.
AMAC Action’s Chief Policy Analyst, Michael Teninty, discusses this topic in his recent article, “The Will of We the People”:
“In the United States, citizens of this nation, by our status as the sovereign of this nation, exercise a process of voting to express our sovereign will. That is to say, it is by voting in these United States of America that the will of We the People is heard.”
Teninty continues, “By voting in an election, we participate in a great survey to determine who will represent our will, and who will carry out that will, and in some cases, how they will do it. But how to conduct the survey is a difficult question. The survey method chosen must result in an accurate presentation of the actual will of the people. It is critical that the “sense of the people” is transmitted with high fidelity to the governing body lest that governing body, in exercising power not representative of the will of the people, become tyrannical and no better than that of a foolish and/or depraved king or queen.”

“Bootcamp for Boomers” to Long Island on September 14, 2024
This crucial election-year gathering will empower Long Island patriots to help turn New York red. It will also mobilize AMAC members to help win critical Congressional seats on Long Island, which will be pivotal in deciding control of the U.S. House this fall.
Featured speakers will include former New York Representative and gubernatorial candidate Lee Zeldin, Just the News CEO John Solomon, AMAC CEO Rebecca Weber, former Trump trade policy advisor Peter Navarro, television commentator and columnist Tammy Bruce, Former Customs and Border Patrol Commissioner Mark Morgan, and other conservative leaders.
“AMAC’s Bootcamp for Boomers is a crucial opportunity to engage voters and equip them with the knowledge they need to have an impact in their communities,” said Tammy Bruce. “I look forward to being a part of this important event taking place in the heart of a battleground district and raising awareness about the most pressing issues facing our country.”
Stop Ranked-Choice Voting in Alaska
Thanks to the unstoppable energy of tens of thousands of Alaskans who rallied together last year to sign a petition calling for the end of Ranked-Choice Voting (RCV), we are now poised to be on the November ballot as Proposition 2!
Your enthusiasm and dedication were nothing short of remarkable, and the success of this signature drive has paved the way to take this critical issue to the ballot. But there is still more to be done. The “Yes on 2” campaign has launched – a bold and crucial effort to end RCV and restore a simpler, more transparent election process in Alaska!
Vote Yes on 2!
By voting “YES on 2,” we’ll return to a system where each vote is straightforward and easily understood, ensuring that our electoral process is transparent and fair.
Here’s how you can make a difference:
- Spread the Word: Talk to your friends, family, and neighbors about the importance of ending Ranked-Choice Voting. Share information on social media, help organize events, distribute materials, and mobilize voters.
- Volunteer: Join our team of dedicated volunteers to help with campaign activities. Whether it’s canvassing, phone banking, or distributing literature, your time and effort are invaluable.

Volunteer as a Poll Worker
Poll workers are a crucial part of the democratic process and play a vital role in helping citizens cast their ballots. Amid continuing concerns about election integrity, poll workers are set to have an especially large impact this fall. Election law requires both Republicans and Democrats to work the polls in order to ensure an unbiased and bipartisan process and many jurisdictions continue to face shortfalls of poll workers.
Serving as a poll worker is an easy way to get involved in the community and help keep the wheels of democracy turning. Any eligible voter who is interested can sign up using the U.S. Election Assistance Commission’s user-friendly Poll Worker Recruitment Lookup Tool to find their local precinct and sign up!
