Introduction
from Mike Church - This movie was a collaborative effort between the
Rev. X and me. The goal was simple: ALL Republicans profess to crave,
no covet! a new Gipper as the Party’s nominee. It should go without
saying that said nominee should actually BELIEVE in Reagan’s core
beliefs and his guiding principles.
Many people cite the 1964
speech Reagan gave on behalf of Barry Goldwater as his finest, which is
why it has come to be know as “The Speech.” In The Speech, we hear
Reagan referencing our Founding Fathers, The Constitution and limited
self government.
We
also hear his warnings about keeping Social Security as is and that
young people should be allowed out of the program. Reagan warned of
inflating the dollar and the departure from Gold. As he pointed out,
our National Debt in 1964 was 1.5 times that of all the debt owed by
all the other Nations of the WORLD.
When
this speech was filmed, Americans had been newly committed to the
Vietnam War and Reagan didn’t approve. He also protested our
involvement and expenditures in 108 countries around the globe when we
set out to help 19.
Finally,
Ronald Reagan thought we had crossed a dangerous threshold when the
cumulative tax rate reached 33%. (today it stands at 51-57% depending
on income)
Ronald
Reagan would get his chance to right many of these transgressions, but
not all. His legacy, we should remind ourselves, is rooted in his
undying belief in his principles and how he applied that to governing.
The
point of this movie is not to sway votes in Presidential Primaries, it
is to argue that Congressman Paul and those of us who agree with him,
ought to have a seat at the table as our party debates it’s purpose and
future which we hope is firmly rooted in the rich, Constitutional
advocacy, of our past.
Yours in Conservatism,
Mike Church

I think that Reagan's 1964 speech is one of the best I've ever heard by any leader. This movie you put together is excellent and really puts things into perspective. This is a great reality check for conservatives and Republicans!

Have we been convinced that Ron Paul is a goof-ball, a wacko and a nut by other 'so-called' conservatives and the elite media or what?!?!
I for one am VERY glad you did this video. Even though it's too late for this election, it is NOT too late for those of us that ARE TRUE Conservatives to save this country!
We must stand together! Who is with me???
