| ****FOR WIDE DISTRIBUTION**** Dear Fellow American, We're excited to announce the launching of a new grassroots activist effort called RenewAmerica. This national effort is a project of Alan Keyes' political base, the Declaration Alliance. The purpose of RenewAmerica is to build a broadly inclusive grassroots movement that will restore America to its founding ideals--through the efforts of dedicated citizens like yourself and the leadership of Alan Keyes. To learn more about this exciting project, visit http://www.RenewAmerica.tv The site offers:
The website invites the interest of ALL people who consider themselves loyal Americans. The site has no philosophy, image, or agenda beyond this one unifying premise: America must return to its founding principles if it is to survive. Please join us in this endeavor and sign up for our regular activist updates. We need your strength. Visit the site often--for self-helps, suggestions, and guidance for organizing. And feel free to take our banners and disseminate them. Go to: Included below is a message from Dr. Keyes. We look forward to hearing from you. Stefani Stone
A Message from Alan Keyes Welcome to www.RenewAmerica.tv, and to the community we are building here of Americans determined to make our nation worthy again of the gifts we have received from Providence, and from our Founders. Everything I have done in my public life has rested on the truth that, in America, it is the people who make good things happen, because it is the people who have the Founding principles of America most deeply in their hearts. RenewAmerica.tv is dedicated to the vision of a nation renewed by the labor of its common citizens, working together with intelligence and determination. Working together, we can restore our people's confidence in their ability to govern themselves wisely and well. We can remind the American people that our Founders made no mistake when they wrote that God created us all equal in dignity. Working together, we can begin to remember what it is like for a free people to live together as fellow citizens, as friends, as a free people, under God. The resources available on this carefully and wisely constructed website are intended as a catalyst for the real engine of reform in America: the principled energy you bring to the job, and are willing to share with others. Please join me by making RenewAmerica.tv the center of your participation in the renewal of American liberty. Keep Faith, Alan Keyes |
Same old, same old.....broken records lamenting everything.......ears to hear [and they don't], eyes to read [and they don't].....sad....America is lost.
As long as there are men and women of good will who pray and work and believe, it ain't over.
The fight for life and liberty has never been easy; in fact other generations have had to pay a fearful price to maintain it.
There are still millions across this country who get it.
"Here's another sample of what bothers me - you'll notice it's all about promoting Dr. Ambassador Keyes - not about promoting the government of our Founding Fathers."
The focus of RenewAmercia is, as you wrote, about trying to disseminate the message of Alan Keyes--the site makes that very clear. But what is the message of Dr. Keyes? Returning our nation to the ideals that formed our nation--i.e the Declaration and Constitution. What's wrong with that?
BTW, don't you think that your screename is a little creepy?
"BTW, don't you think that your screename is a little creepy?"
LOL! Yes, I guess it could be. It actually refers to the eye on the dollar bill, which according to history represents the eye of the Almighty on America. My handle is meant to remind Americans of God's role in this nation's life. (Perhaps it's a little ambiguous)
Are you sure about that one? When I was a kid, I wanted to be an Egyptologist, like many other kids, and I could have sworn that that eye you are referring to on the dollar bill is the Egyptian eye of Osiris or Horace, I can't remember which one. I have no idea whose idea it was to put that on the dollar bill, it seems sort of silly to me, like someone didn't know their history.
I get it. I think it's too easy during drive time or in the evening to get too involved with radio talk shows or cable shows about current events. The fight for life and liberty gets diluted by all the incoming messages that we are bombarded with.
The millions across this country who do get it, believe in these "United" States of America.
I am waiting to see more positive posts. Do we need an Optimist's Chapter here at Free Republic to offset all the doom and gloomers that have written off this great nation and are resorting to scapegoating as well?
It sure seems that way. Our country is in bad shape, but that's only because good people sit by and do nothing about it. We can save this nation, if we unite together, remember our principles, and look to God for help--just as our Founders did.
An optimist's chapter on FR is definitely needed. Where do I sign up? :)
What Is The Significance Of The Symbols On The Back Of The One-Dollar Bill?
The eye and the pyramid shown on the reverse side of the one-dollar bill are in the Great Seal of the United States. The Great Seal was first used on the reverse of the one-dollar Federal Reserve note in 1935. The Department of State is the official keeper of the Seal. They believe that the most accurate explanation of a pyramid on the Great Seal is that it symbolizes strength and durability. The unfinished pyramid means that the United States will always grow, improve and build. In addition, the "All-Seeing Eye" located above the pyramid suggests the importance of divine guidance in favor of the American cause.
The inscription ANNUIT COEPTIS translates as "He (God) has favored our undertakings," and refers to the many instances of Divine Providence during our Government's formation. In addition, the inscription NOVUS ORDO SECLORUM translates as "A new order of the ages," and signifies a new American era. If you are interested in a more detailed history of the Great Seal of the United States, you should contact the Department of State directly.
Some people think he's overbearing, condescending, whatever. Well grow a skin. In the words of Elmer Davis, "The republic was not established by cowards, and cowards will not preserve it.". The creeping socialism, declining morality and loss of faith and national memory has infected and weakened our great nation for far, far too long. It is time to reclaim what is ours. Most Americans have forgotten who we are. It is time to remember, and act positively to restore our Republic to it's proper Constitutional glory. There is much work to be done. I'm in.
And with that, this thread gets a well-deserved
And, if at all possible, folks should try to attend the conference in Las Vegas on 8-17,8-18, & 8-19-02. The meeting day is Saturday. Visit the FREVA Las Vegas thread. I'm going and there are many options available. For instance, I won't be signing up for the fundraising lecture due to my poor math skills upon having two mvas. Public speaking and how to handle the media lectures; that's what I'm interested in.
Know anyone running against Daschle? Will people there be going from bad to worse? If it is who I think it is, that makes me qualified to run for God by comparison.
And there is no way to get worse than Daschle.
