Our Mission

Guided by our cornerstones of faith, liberty, community, and life, we will strengthen the bonds that hold our country together by promoting conservative, commonsense solutions to the issues facing our society. These four cornerstones laid the foundation for the greatest nation the world has ever seen. Their promotion and preservation can secure the United States of America as a beacon of hope and freedom for generations to come.

Dr. Ben Carson and the American Cornerstone Institute are leading in the Conservative movement.

ACI is standing guard to protect American families and communities.

Senator Mike Lee

The American Cornerstone Institute has established itself at the forefront of the conservative movement as common sense thought leaders with a can-do attitude. For as long as I have known Dr. Carson, he has always embodied the cornerstone principles of faith, liberty, community, and life that made our country so great. The work he is doing with ACI is creating a better America for future generations.

Congresswoman Beth Van Duyne

The U.S. Constitution is the cornerstone of America built on the foundation of faith in God and freedom for all. Dr. Ben Carson and the American Cornerstone Institute are fighting to promote and defend those principles for future generations through every agency of our government and society.

Congressman Jodey Arrington

The American Cornerstone Institute is on the frontlines of protecting our conservative values for a brighter tomorrow. ACI’s partnership with our brave law enforcement officers, valuable discussions about the importance of upholding Title IX protections, and strong voice that our schools are no place for indoctrination helps guarantee that the progressive Left’s agenda will not erode American greatness.

Senator Tuberville

The American Cornerstone Institute, led by Dr. Ben Carson have established themselves as champions of conservative principles, faith-based values, and common-sense solutions in America today. I am grateful for the opportunity to work with ACI and I am honored to call Dr. Carson a friend and a patriot.
