  ****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:

  1. Useful resources, guidance, alerts, links, and other helps for America's grassroots.

  2. Daily updates and inside information about Alan's new MSNBC TV show.

  3. A strategic plan for renewing America upon the vision of our Founders.

  4. A practical handbook for effective activism.

  5. The most extensive Alan Keyes archives on the web.

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: http://www.renewamerica.tv/banners.pl?website=RenewAmerica.tv

Included below is a message from Dr. Keyes.

We look forward to hearing from you.

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

Well, I want to give an immediate endorsement to whoever is gonna run against Daschle in 2004. I've been hearing that he may dodge the whole election.

BTW, Alan is a "conscription" leader--a real rarity. He is genuinely motivated by a love of America and of its founding vision, and is not driven by calculating ambition.

I have given up on the Keye's threads because of his supporters. However; your statement above is the most intellectually insulting piece of sophistry I have seen about Alan Keyes, even by the most rabid Keyester.

>>>We don’t have much time left.<<<<

Disagree. We have all the time in the world...
whether we spend it as a free people or in bondage is the question.

It would be far too presumptious of us to think that we behold the end of history.
We don't deserve that honor.

I repeat what I said earlier--a movement without a leader has no power to change anything. That is one of the clearest lessons of history.

Who, then, would you list as THE leader of the Revolution?

I think more important than the leader is the IDEA...or the IDEAL...being aimed for. If the leader is the all-important thing, without him or her the movement falls apart. If the IDEA or GOAL is the most important thing, then as long as all members have the same goal and are working toward it, the movement continues.

If Renew[ing] America depends upon Alan Keyes, then if (heaven forbid) he were killed in a plane crash tomorrow, our country is doomed. If it depends solely on returning to the ideas and ideals of our Founding Fathers, THOSE are the basis of the movement, not who says what about them.

My other point, you will call "bashing", but before you dismiss it as such, please hear me out. The other problem with Alan Keyes as leader is that he offends many people - note Joe Brower's post above in which he says "Some people think he's overbearing, condescending, whatever. Well grow a skin." You can see in the early posts on this thread that even Symix - and Dr. Keyes has no greater fan than Symix! - thought on the first viewing that Dr. Keyes was rude to his guest on the show last night.

Symix later changed his mind & said his first impression was incorrect, but you know from reading these threads that others have gotten the same impression - and for some, the first impression is the one they carry forever.

I know that no one person can appeal to everyone, but beginning a movement with someone who impresses many as rude, condescending, or arrogant is dooming that movement to failure.

Better, IMHO, to tie the movement to IDEAS, or to SEVERAL leaders, than to one man.
