Last week on Fox & Friends, I watched an interview with Governor Charlie Crist of Florida. He is spoken of by the pundits as one of the rising stars of the Republican Party. If his views represent the best and brightest for the Republican Party, then it's time to officially kiss the Republican Party goodbye! Mr. Crist does not believe that the Republicans have strayed from conservatism. He also says that the party needs to do a better job of getting the message out that it is an "inclusive party"......inclusive of identifiable groups such as latinos, blacks, etc.
If this is the message of the Republican leadership, we need new leadership! Quite frankly, I don't want any "identifiable groups", whether they be Latinos, Blacks, Asians, or Whites, in my Republican Party! The only group I want in my Republican party is Americans. If Charlie Crist thinks that the party needs to craft a message to appeal to any group other than the group we call (whether Latinos, Blacks, Asians, or Whites), he is truly part of the destructive force at work in our country.
I believe that most Americans have the sames desires for themselves and their families. A strong economy, including good jobs, real opportunity to start businesses, governments that spend responsibly, leadership that can be supported. If you address a letter to a member of the House of Representatives or the Senate, proper etiquette requires "Honorable" to precede the member's name. Frankly, I have found very little honor coming from any of the branches of our government.
How do we fix this lack of honorable leadership? It is really very simple. In fact, we already have the business plan created for us. Sure, we might have to dust it off and remove the cobwebs, but the United States Constitution and an infusion of pure capitalism is all this country needs! If our governmental leadership does not believe in the Constitution and capitalism........it's time to point fingers and throw the bums out!

Hello:
I am writing you because of the outrage I feel at the protests going on worldwide against capitalist democracies. I don't know what else to do or how else to reach out.
On the road to the G20 meetings, many countries have felt it necessary to form marches, blaming capitalism for the worlds' economic woes--and are calling for more restrictions on our economy, which translates into less freedom for all. This is obviously another violation of rights. We don't live in a strictly capitalist system and I feel the interventionism in business and global problems would far better explain the root of the problem.
I do not know the effectiveness of marches and protests insofar as legislative response goes. I do know that we have to respond to this. We have to have a loud voice saying not everyone wants to socialize the banks; not every one wants economic reform to move towards regulation. That, in large numbers, we want things to head in the opposite direction. We do have a huge community sharing our beliefs on the Internet, but we need to demonstrate, to say it louder.
I have no experience organizing any political action, ever. I just know that we must be heard. We must speak up for ourselves. I have no plans for dates, times, or places because I though I should get minimally a group of 100 people before any of that should even be discussed.
I have spent the past few days posting calls to action on whatever threads I could find and searching through event calendars. I have also sent e-mails to half of the people on lp.org. I am sorry that I am wasting you're valuable time, if you are not interested. Please, help if you are interested and capable of getting the word out, which I think you are. Please contact me here or at my e-mail address: wehavetowalk@yahoo.com.
Thank you,
