We are pleased to announce that FreeRepublic and Jim Robinson have established an Alliance Link to the Restore the Constitution effort, The Independent Movement for Constitutional Restoration (IAM-CR).
The premise for IAM-CR is simple:
We intend to amass a voting block of millions of Americans who are sworn to focus on Constitutional Principle first and foremost in their voting and who will vote for and elect the thousands of candidatires we find and enlist who are sworn to support fundamental Constitutional Principle.
We invite all members of FreeRepublic to review our twelve constitutional principles and then JOIN US and invite your family, friends, and neighbors to do likewise as we build this voting block all over the nation and attract candidates to us, or develop them from our own ranks at all levels of government.
Please review the list of candidates we have already attracted, who have sworn or affirmed that they will support those same principles and do all in their power to support and inact them in law if elected.
IAM-CR is not a political party or a PAC. It seeks no donations, fees, dues, or other funds. It only seeks the commitment to constitutional principle of its members and candidates from whatever persuasion.
All of the public demonstrations are good, and critical in showing the opposition the strength, determination, and numbers of those Americans who are awakening to the destruction of our Republic by abject socialists and marxists in our own government. IAM-CR does, and will will link to and promote those FreeRepublic, 912Project, TeaParty and other events directed to this end.
But until we actually elect candidates at all levels of government committed to the constitution and who swear to abide its fundamental principles...nothing will change.
That restoration of our Constitutional Republic, based on fundamental constitutional principle is what this effort is about...that is what FreeRepublic is all about...the largest and most effective site for conservative activism and news on the intenet. Jim Robinson's foresight and dedicated efforts over many years must be recognized for making that so, and we sincerely thank him and all those involved with FreeRepublic for that work, and for forming this alliance with our efforts in support of those same goals.
In this regard, our alliance could not be more natural.
In fact, IAM-CR was created by several long-time and well known freepers and a couple of other well-known patriots. Jeff Head (freeper Jeff Head), Neil E Wright (freeper Neil E. Wright), David C, Wright (freeper dcwusmc), Ward Dorrity (freeper noumenon), Matthew Bracken (freeper Travis McGee), Pastor Stephen Broden (seen often on Fox News, Glenn Beck, and Hannity, and who is himself one of our candidates for the US Congress), and David Hedrick (the disabled US marine who stood up to his congressman at the town hall in Washington state and who is also one of our candidates for US Congress) are all on the Advisory Board of this effort.
Please JOIN US and help us use the political process and our voting rights to rise up and take our country back and restore our constitutional republic.
We are just not equipped to win.
IF Congress turned against Obama we'd have a chance and I won't personally claim anything concrete til 11/4/10.
Fact is their weapons beat ours so handily, however, we may as well use slingshots.
“Fact is their weapons beat ours so handily, however, we may as well use slingshots.”
David didn’t have a defeatist attitude when he went up against Goliath,(with a slingshot) :)
BUMP!
I went to sign up, but you need a face book account to go sign some petition there and they want your full name. I don’t plaster my real name all over the internet. :(
Someone should also put together a FreepMail (read PRIVATE) Moneybomers list. IF we had a list of tried and true Bombers that RTC and FR could coordinate with Campaign contacts we could make sure our “bombs” hit right when and WHERE the need to?
I’m on it...:)
Thanks for the heads-up TR...
God in Heaven has not changed, and our faith in Him will not go fruitless or in vain.
We just have to exhibit it and act upoin it.
Those tools, the principles, the faith, and the human heart, will all trump what our adversaries array against us if we will but employ them...and the time has come where I believe we shall, in numbers.
Time will tell.
I knew someone would bring up David. Goliath didn't have a very good armory.
Bumped and forwarded!
Doing all we can civilly and within the bounds established by the constitution itself, but directly, and forthrightly without compromise...and being willing to respond should our adversaries try and themselves go beyond those bounds in such a way as to require the same means our founders employed.
Thank you Kim! Look forward to working with your and yours there!
Just thinking about something like this, the other day...FR oughta have a membership drive or hitchup to someone who could take it to the “next level.” God bless your efforts.
George Washington never said that.
The part about dying on your feet rather than living on your knees was apparently originated by the Mexican revolutionary Emiliano Zapata.
BTTT!
This may be all good and well but we won’t have a country or constitution if we don’t focus on on winning the war against the Islamofascists who declared war on America.
Also a non productive exercise for some on FR who split one of the two parties in elections which always gives us
the Liberal Democrat victory.
Thank you, Jeff!!
All political office holders swear an oath to defend and uphold the Constitution of the United States, so help me God, as do all members of the armed forces. The only difference is, our service members actually risk their lives doing so. The office holders who betray their oath betray their Constitution, their country, their God and their sacred honor!
Our service members take the oath seriously. Dishonorable politicians see it as a doormat to wipe their feet on as they enter office and it seems once in, they never again look to God, country or the Constitution for guidance.
Thank you very much for getting this effort started.
Damn the naysayers, full steam ahead!!
God bless.
Gee, you’re right. When I read it on the Internet I was sure it was true. It seems several people said it but GW did not.
Men of the South! It is better to die on your feet than to live on your knees
Emiliano Zapata (Mexican revolutionary, champion of agrarianism, who fought in guerrilla actions during and after the Mexican Revolution (1911- 17), 1879-1919)
Better to die on one’s feet than to live on one’s knees.
Dolores Ibarruri (Pasionaria) (Spanish Basque Politician, Journalist and Orator 1895-1989)
We, and all others who believe in freedom as deeply as we do, would rather die on our feet than live on our knees
Franklin D. Roosevelt (American 32nd US President (1933-45), cousin of Theodore Roosevelt, 26th US president. 1882-1945)
The more Americans who focus on constitutional principle and the constitution itself when voting...and who are dead serious about it, supporting only those candidates who are willing to do the same and hold that oath sacrosanct...the better our nation will be.
If enough of us do it...by the millions, we will elect candidates of a similar heart and mind who will undo the grabage that has been foisted upon us, and return our republic to the limited governance, constitutionally principled governance that was intended.
Thank you again Jim for your own service, your own dedication to principle, and the hard work you yourself have put in for many, many years as an example for others.
...and thank you for supporting us in this effort.
