Maybe you haven’t noticed. Our Republic is eroding. We cannot have government of the people – by the people – for the people, if we passively sit back in entitlement mode and expect to get good government from slick, sound-bite, professional politicians. We need citizen leaders and representatives who act as Statesmen with altruistic motives for the entire population. You are correct when you say Alan Keyes has as much chance at being President as you or me. That’s the point! This 2008 Election is not about electing a man/woman.
We have reached the point of no return.
If each of us really believes in the principles of Christ, and is genuinely trying to live by them, integrity demands that we vote for the set of principles that most closely matches the consistent, unchanging values taught by Christ.
It’s not up to Alan to get elected. It’s not up to Alan to persuade others to vote for him. It is up to you and me to display the moral courage of our convictions. We must be the word-of-mouth media that re-establishes
We the People… or it will be gone forever.
Does anyone remember what it used to mean to give one’s word?
to pledge?
to attest faithfully?
You are invited to sign a PLEDGE to use your sphere of influence…
your time – talent – treasure,
to be the salt – yeast – light,
that will flavor – grow – illumine, the whole.
The Sons of Liberty had their Liberty Tree.
If you have the faith of a mustard seed,
you can grow through your sphere of influence.
