This is a grass-roots
American effort.
We believe that in a close 2004 election, ordinary Americans armed only
with conviction,
elbow grease, love of country, the willingness to communicate with
their neighbors, and
the internet have the potential to decide the election. This is
far superior to an election in which the
deciding factor are the partisan political spinmeisters of Madison
Avenue and the media armed
with hundreds of millions in advertising dollars.
Should you desire to be a part of this effort, to be an area contact,
or should you have programing,
communications, or video editing skills, or otherwise wish to
contribute your ideas or skills to this effort, please contact us below.
While this is an effort begun by, and primarily
directed toward, conservatives and Republicans who formerly supported
President Bush in the 2000 election, we believe that at this time of
national crisis we must set aside partisan differences and work
together
with fellow Americans from across the political spectrum to elect new
leadership for the good of our nation. We supported President
Bush in the 2000 because of shared values. We continue to support
the values he publicly expressed as a candidate. But we cannot
support a sincere and determined President whose policies contradict
those values, and who adjusts to fundamental foreign policy mistakes by
re-doubling his commitment to misguided, flawed policy and a
counterproductive
extremist ideology that justifies preemptive
invasion and occupation with reasons that are less
than truthful.
Many conservatives and Republicans have become disillusioned with
Administration foreign policies.
But many are not yet fully aware of the extent to which this
Administration's domestic
policies contradict the very conservative
values that the President professes, not only with rampant deficits ,
but with a growth in discretionary
domestic spending and entitlements greater
than under any
Democratic Administration since the Great Society (and greater than has
ever occurred with a Republican Congress forced to work with a
Democratic president), and with continued erosion of civil
liberties.
The consequences of
continuing on our present course are too great.
We believe that the preeminent issue in this election is not whether
we have a Democrat or Republican in the White House, but whether we
have a President committed to persevering in grievous error or a leader
willing
to admit and correct error.
This is a goal around which we must unite with Americans of good will
from differing political perspectives.
We believe ordinary Americans without great resources of
advertising dollars can make a difference as never before. The
internet is a leveler, and, unlike the traditional media, allows ideas
more complex than sound bites and slogans to thrive.
This election may be decided by a relative handful of votes.
We invite Americans of all political persuasions, united by our common
need for new national leadership, to link to and utilize our materials,
and join with us in this effort, as you feel appropriate.
