Former U.S. Republican House Majority Leader Tom DeLay of Texas has endorsed Randall Terry in his bid for U.S. president. The Constitution Party chose Terry in April as its presidential nominee for the 2024 election. Pastor Stephen Broden of Dallas is Terry’s running mate and a long-time member of the John Birch Society.
“The ‘3-D’ battle plan of the Terry/Broden campaign is political genius!” DeLay announced on the campaign website. “Every Republican should invest in this mission to DEFEND babies, DEFEAT Biden and DESTROY the Democrat Party.”
“My biggest regret after leaving Congress was that we didn’t get rid of abortion,” DeLay told The New American in a phone interview. He has since helped get heartbeat bills passed in Texas and Ohio, but he says that is only a start.
“It’s time to have a national debate on abortion, and those who believe in saving lives must go on the offensive, driving the narrative. Randall Terry is the first person I have seen who’s running for president and talking about the truth of what is happening to babies.”
“Our campaign can be the secret weapon — the torpedo — that blows a hole in the Biden camp and the Democrat Party,” Terry told The New American. He founded the anti-abortion group Operation Rescue and led it from 1987 until 1994. His goal is to expose the gruesome reality of abortion — what it does to unborn babies as well as to women, the victims of those who convince them that murdering their offspring is a solution to problems.
Terry and Broden say that by exposing these truths, many of those who voted for Biden in 2020 will refuse to do so again. Terry points to the numbers: More than 50 percent of Catholics, 90 percent of Blacks, and one-third of Evangelicals voted Democrat four years ago. They hope to turn those numbers around by exposing the plight of mothers and their innocent children.
So Terry and Broden have produced a number of television and radio ads that will run nationwide, especially in swing states. These are hard-hitting 30-second spots that contain graphic images of the tortured, mutilated bodies of aborted babies and provocative messages such as Pastor Broden’s warning: “Think about it. Twelve percent of America’s population is Black, but over a third of abortions are committed on Black women. If you are Black and you voted for Biden, you’re an accessory to Black genocide.”

Abortion is Worse than Slavery
“It’s plainly evident that these ads do not hurt Trump!” Terry insists, in response to the former president’s 2023 warning to conservative groups about their handling of the abortion debate. “Telling Catholic and Black voters it is a sin to vote for Biden does not hurt Trump!”
Terry says that these two constituencies represent the largest voting blocks inside the Democratic Party. By explicitly depicting abortion, he hopes to convince those two groups to vote for life and candidates who will defend it. Otherwise, “you are voting for people who would kill Jesus in the womb,” he warns, quoting Our Lord from the Gospel of Saint Matthew: “Whatever you do to the least of these, you do to Me.”
Likewise, Broden points out that, incredibly, abortion is the number one medical procedure conducted on Black women in America, and abortion is the number one killer of Black people. He wants to see the Democrat Party take the “pathway of Whigs.”
“The Democrat Party is evil, wicked and demonic,” this national speaker and twice recipient of Congressional Medals of Distinction told The New American. “They murder our children, steal their innocence through same-sex and transgender, and normalize pedophilia. We must destroy the Democrat Party, defeat Biden and defend innocent life in the womb.”
DeLay agrees, calling abortion “the number one issue” in the upcoming election, upon which the survival of American civilization depends. He urges voters to choose only Christian candidates with an understanding of and commitment to the U.S. Constitution, reminding them that our country “is not a democracy — it is a Republic.”
That crucial distinction is a central tenet of The John Birch Society. Read more in founder Robert Welch’s 1961 booklet Republics and Democracies.
