Welch graduated from high school and entered the University of North Carolina when he was twelve. He entered the U.S. Naval Academy in 1917. When he was nineteen, he wrote the weekly summary of the "Headline Jingles". After attending Harvard Law School, Welch married Marina Robert ion December 22, 1922. He borrowed less than $100, and formed the Oxford Candy Company. He joined his brother James as the vice president in charge of sales and advertising.

Robert Welch thought that "democracy is merely a deceptive, a weapon of demagoguery and a perennial fraud". In 1958, he became a publisher of the magazine "American Opinion". He also published "//The Politician//"(known as the //Black Book//). In the Black Book, Welch thinks that Franklin D. Roosevelt knew the Japanese was going to bomb Pearl Harbor, and encourage them to do so. The bombing of Pearl Harbor was Roosevelt's excuse to get United States into World War II.

The John Birch Society was important because it is an invention and political extension of the Church. John Birch Society is also important in the United States history. John Birch Society's infrastructure was an exact miniature of the Church designed to serve as its political arm in reaching where the Church was forbidden to go by United States laws of Church-State separation. Some people in the government think the John Birch Society is anti-American too.

There are 100,000 members in the John Birch Society, some important supporter are William F. Buckley, Douglas Caddy and Marvin Lineman. They established the Young Americans for Freedom to prepare young people for the struggle ahead with Liberalism, Socialism and Communism. Some member published books like //The Invisible Governmen//t, //A Choice, Not an Echo//, //A Taxen Looks at Lyndon// and //Idaho// //Statesman.//
