Glenn Beck reveals the Plan
GlennBeck.Com ^ | 11-21-09 | Glenn Beck

Posted on 11/21/2009 2:32:55 PM PST by STARWISE

Friends,

What an amazing few days on the road this has been. Your spirits have been high, your faith strong and your spine unbendable. I ended my multiday book tour at The Villages with what had been billed as a rally but could be better described as a candid citizen-to-citizen chat.

Today, I have stopped looking for a leader to show us the way out because I have come to realize that the only one who can truly save our country...is us. To change America's course we need to change ourselves, our expectations and our willingness to accept the unacceptable.

When we refuse to allow our children to receive a trophy for participation, we are on the road to restoring the meaning of merit in our Republic. When we insist that no one is too big to fail, we will be able to learn from our mistakes, and when we demand that we are self-reliant, we will ensure that others can rely on us, not the government.

There is much to do, much to learn and time is of the essence. While I will be explaining the entire Plan over the coming weeks and months, I did want to give you a preview of some of the highlights:- Education is key, and not just for our children. To that end, we will be conducting a series of conventions. These will be full-day experiences where you will be immersed in learning about topics ranging from self-reliance, community organizing, the economy and how to be a political force in your own neighborhood and country.

The first one will be in Orlando at UCF Arena on March 27th. You will also be able to vote to have a convention in your region by clicking here.

- I have begun meeting with some of the best minds in the country that believe in limited government, maximum freedom and the values of our Founders. I am developing a 100 year plan.

I know that the bipartisan corruption in Washington that has brought us to this brink and it will not be defeated easily. It will require unconventional thinking and a radical plan to restore our nation to the maximum freedoms we were supposed to have been protecting, using only the battlefield of ideas.

- All of the above will culminate in The Plan, a book that will provide specific policies, principles and, most importantly, action steps that each of us can take to play a role in this Refounding.

- On August 28, 2010, I ask you, your family and neighbors to join me at the feet of Abraham Lincoln on the National Mall for the unveiling of The Plan and the birthday of a new national movement to restore our great country.

The Gettysburg Address is incredible for what it says in so few words. One of my favorites.

The Left beware, we are coming together, and once together, nothing can stop us. We will become like a tidalwave.
Those RINOS beware, we are no longer backing you just because. You are a speedbump and should retire before you get booted from office.
True Americans join us and take back our country from those who took it from us. Restore the USA to the vision our Founding fathers created for us.

So he begins with the assumption that we are all a bunch of pig-ignorant sods in need of his instruction?

Looking at who you elected to run your Government, it seem the answer to your question is yes.

Bob Beckel recently told Ann Coulter, "Your party is losing 2,000 voters every day...

What did Coulter say in response?

Glenn Beck’s “Common Sense” contains a far better plan than JFK’s “Profiles in Courage”, IMHO.

I don't see it that way.,P. I thin Beck's take on the two party system is more candidate over party,vote for the best candidate and don't pay so much attention to the party. For the most part he is right and most of the time that will be Republicans.

how about finding and supporting a person who's values mirror yours instead of blindly following a party.

that's how i see it.

God Bless Glenn Beck. We are with him.

I remember my 10th grade history teacher telling us the communists knew they could eventually take us over through our educational system. Until we change our schools and our colleges and offer alternatives, they will continue to win. I’m sure that must be part of his plan.

Frankly, we are pig-ignorant about *effectively* organizing on a national level.

It actually doesn't make any difference what he calls it.

Look at what the depraved media called the Tea Party People!

I forgot to mention that the president of 51% of the people also called us that!

Fine and they all happen to be Republicans. There are NO good Dimocrats. Who are you kidding? Do you really believe there are good Democrats?

Thank you.

Remember, a third party (Ross Perot) gave us Bill Clinton. We need to adopt the Reagan strategy...re-take the Republican Party.

I have the truth contained in the DOI and Constitution to lead me. I don’t need Mr. Beck.
