April 26...Constitution Party

They are having their convention this weekend. Looks like the remarkable orator and true conservative Alan Keyes will get the nomination.
Alan Keyes for President - America's Revival

In light of John McCain's condemnation of NC's advertising, and his gang of 14 behavior, amnesty, condemnation of Git-mo etc...

We finally have a home for true conservatives. Vote with confidence, patriotism, and with our founding fathers...
Constitution Party.

I'd like to see more MSM coverage of Alan Keyes.

It is possible...

the Press does not quite know how to deal with him.

A) He would pull votes from McCain...they cheer.

B) He's ardently Pro-Life...they boo

C) Gun-Totten, Bible believing people are fun to mock:...They Cheer

D) He's Remarkably intelligent, and anti-Government Bureaucracy...BOO!

E) He stirs up controversy--they think this makes good newsroom copy-Cheer!

F) He makes far more sense than Jackson, Sharpton, Wright...but won't lead a march or stick up for thugs...Boo.

So, the media is baffled how to deal with him.-I can't imagine they would be close to fair toward him.

I like Alan, but I totally disagree with him on his views on religion and education.

I watched a debate with him a few years back. The media handled him with kidd gloves. Lots of slow pitch questions, lots of praise during the debate. The post debate coverage was ALL on the other candidates.

Interesting find!

Thanks for that find Andy...
Frankly:
We DID have a Creed,
We Did allow faith in school
We did Teach morality
We did explain right from wrong..

And we were a great nation.
Now, 30%...50%? of our kids walk out of school hating America, with a me-first attitude, and lack the same reading, math & science skills although we spend even more than ever on them.

Alan is right...can we go back? probably not: we can't turn around a wicked, self-centered and generally dull-witted people unless they are willing to listen, buckle down and obey---that will not happen in this age.

Larry King...

...who is better at interviewing Paris Hilton, toaster and other such appliances, handled the GOP 2000 South Carolina 'debate' and asked Alan about racial sterotyping and if it made him mad at the po po.

Keye's said (parapharasing) "I take issue with where the issue lies; behavior that leads to the sterotype being accurate. It is simply good police work to be suspicious of people exhibing the characteristics of criminals."

King acted like he'd just tasted last nights dish water and did not ask Keye's another question the rest of the night.

Alan Key's is also got the best answer to campaign finance 'reform'; if it can't vote, it can't give money. If it can vote, it can give, as a free person, all they choose and simply make it public, right away. People, free people, are free to choose.

It looks like Keyes won't be the nominee after all. Radio pastor Chuck Baldwin has the majority of the CP delegates in hand.
