Freedom Partners’ principal goal is to educate the public about the critical role played by free markets in achieving economic prosperity, societal well-being, and personal happiness. We seek to build support for a fiscally responsible government, and policies that support entrepreneurship, spur job creation, and increase opportunities for all. We focus primarily on four issue areas: health care reform, federal spending, energy policy, and cronyism.Freedom Partners believes that the bedrock of the American republic is the ingenuity of its entrepreneurs and innovators. The free market is the lifeblood of innovation and a conduit for the infinite potential of human aspiration. We face a critical juncture in American history, as an increasingly cumbersome government bureaucracy erodes the freedoms that support a prosperous society. Only by getting the government out of the way will individuals be able to build a free and strong society.

The Faith and Freedom Coalition is a non-profit organization committed to educating, equipping, and mobilizing people of faith and like-minded individuals to be effective citizens.

Against overwhelming odds, David Ferguson managed the 2010 Republican Primary campaign for Dr. Robert Bentley, now former-Governor of Alabama.The media had the following to say:The New York Times said, “A relatively unknown Alabama state representative won the Republican nomination for governor on Tuesday, easily defeating a well-financed, establishment-supported opponent in a runoff election… he was a virtual unknown before his second-place finish in the crowded primary on June 1. In that election, he defeated two more prominent opponents: a former governor’s son and a former State Supreme Court chief justice who is nationally known for trying to put a statue of the Ten Commandments in the courthouse.”USA Today called Dr. Bentley, a “little-known candidate in a crowded primary field of better-known Republicans.”MSNBC called it “improbable,”Fox News called Bentley an “outsider,”The Washington Post called it a, “come from behind victory”The Tuscaloosa News called Bentley, “a physician who had been counted out by most political observers,”The Birmingham Business Journal in an article entitled “Electorate flexes its muscles,” said, “On the Republican side, the big surprise was the strong showing of Dr. Robert Bentley, a not-so-well-known state representative from Tuscaloosa without the campaign war chests of chief rivals Bradley Byrne and Tim James. At press time, Bentley appeared headed for a runoff with Byrne… Bentley’s push for ethics reforms and his refusal to “go negative” in the campaign struck a chord with many voters, who were probably disgusted with the unwanted national attention Alabama has been receiving for ridiculous, pandering campaign advertisements…Hopefully, Bentley’s successful, positive campaign will have a major impact on future Alabama elections.”
