VETERANS for CONSTITUTIONAL RESTORATION (VCR); New veterans organization needs you!
Veterans for Constitutional Restoration ^ | 2/15/02 | A Navy Vet

YOUR COUNTRY STILL NEEDS YOU!

Every so many years Americans wake up to the importance of our Armed Forces, and that time is here again. Veterans, current military, spouses, and Freepers, the time is right for our voices to be heard regarding the concerns we have about the future of our Republic and the ever-expanding government intrusion in our lives.

To this end, a couple military veterans here at Free Republic had the vision to create an ongoing educational outreach program to teach our citizens about our republican form of government, how government has extended itself beyond its mandated limits, and what needs to be done to push government, particularly the federal government, back inside its constitutional box.

Introducing: Veterans for Constitutional Restoration (VCR), Inc.
VCR is to be a non-profit, non-partisan Nevada corporation (articles) with the purpose and mission:

(1) To assist in the promotion of the General Welfare of the United States by serving as an educational resource center for serious research and other information about the Constitution of the United States and the founding documents in order to provide the pubic with access to these reports and studies; to make available educational materials on the Constitution to public, private and home schools, and to make available members to give lectures and lead discussions on the Constitution and founding documents; to foster, perpetuate and preserve via an ongoing educational outreach program conducted in the electronic media (including but not limited to radio, television, the Internet, etc.) to explain and teach people an appreciation of the republican form of government of this nation as defined in the Constitution of the United States, and the importance of restoring the governance of our nation to the precepts of the Constitution;
(2) to establish and maintain a collection of art and materials (including but not limited to paintings, sculpture, photos, writings, etc.) and related archival materials that reflect our heritage and Constitutional roots and provide for their display, both through regular exhibits and/or through the creation of a cyberspace museum;
(3) to educate the public about our founding documents and our heritage in electronic media (including but not limited to Radio, Television, the Internet, etc.);
(4) to provide entertainment and support to veterans and members of the U.S. Armed Forces via electronic media (including but not limited to radio, television, the Internet, etc.);
(5) to conduct programs which perpetuate the memory of deceased veterans and members of the Armed Forces;
(6) to sponsor or participate in activities of a patriotic nature;
(7) to provide support or otherwise assist corporations, organizations, institutions and individuals carrying on such activities which are consistent with the purposes of this corporation; and
(8) To review current and pending legislation for adherence to Constitutional law and original intent; and to engage in any other lawful activities permitted under Chapter 82 of the Nevada Revised Statutes (NRS).

We are asking you to join us in this endeavor, because of the OATH that we all took, to PROTECT and DEFEND the Constitution from all enemies, foreign and DOMESTIC. It is our time and our duty to remind Americans what so many have sacrificed and died for. Please help us to build a national organization that will promote the welfare of our military, educate Americans (especially students) on our true form of government, and reverse the governmental enroachment on our Constitutional rights!

I'm so sorry to hear that. May he be at rest, and best wishes to his family and friends.

Can we put you on VCR's applicant/assistant list?

Hmmmmm, last time a military guy asked me to volunteer for something, it didn't take long before I found myself in a world of s**t.

Then again, you seem much more sincere than my recruiter.

What the heck, if I can help let me know.

Great idea. It's past time that the rest of the nation discovered just why you guys risk your lives (and protect theirs) for this awesome country. Have you posted the link on the Canteen thread?

Is the draft above the final one? You may want to make a little change after 1): ...founding documents in order to provide the pubic public with access....

Thanks for the ping, David!
