For the time being, this is the question that I would most like to address. Here is a quote from Ronald Reagan's Time for Choosing speech, "At the same time, can't we introduce voluntary features that would permit a citizen who can do better on his own to be excused upon presentation of evidence that he had made provisions for the non-earning years?"
Here are a few thoughts on the "third rail of politics" from one of the members of our group.
Changing the hearts and minds of millions of Americans is an enormous undertaking. This is not about "we are more conservative than you are" or reciting platitudes to make us all feel better about ourselves. The United States is a very large ship of state with an enormous amount of momentum. Unfortunately, it is following a course similar to that of another famous ship. Given its present course and speed, and the constantly changing nature of the uncharted waters we have entered, my best guess is that the probability of a major collision with reality before 2020 is very high. I can tell you with absolute certainty, confirmed by the Comptroller of the Currency, that there are not enough lifeboats for the 78 million baby-boomers let alone the hundreds of millions of other passengers. Convincing the boomers and millions of other Americans will be a Herculean task requiring what we have termed, the Great Debate.
As you will see, the real beauty of our plan is that the task of convincing the tens of millions of Americans needed to bring about the course change will fall into the capable hands of a man that already has their collective ear. Stay tuned; you will see that our claim that this is the best plan ever devised to restore the Constitution is based on a solid foundation.
