Friends,

It has been an exciting summer for the Constitution Party here in Georgia!  Interest is growing and the Lord is opening doors of opportunity.  Your State Leadership Team is working to take advantage of the current climate of political dissatisfaction and disgust and present a vision of victory by building a better political movement!  In today’s email I’ll share some party highlights and opportunities for you to get involved.  Party Founder Howard Phillips often remarked that this party is not a discussion club or a debate society but a political action movement; so let’s get started taking back America one community at a time!

Dr. J. David Gillespie, a former professor and vice president of academic affairs at Presbyterian College, teaches political parties and third-party politics at the College of Charleston. He authored two books on third parties, more recently Challengers to Duopoly: Why Third Parties Matter in American Two-Party Politics. Though Gillespie's article focuses on ballot access inequity in South Carolina, this systemic problem is just as pervasive in Georgia.

Choice lies right at the heart of democracy. Democracy empowers citizens to enter a free marketplace of ideas and choose from an array of candidates, parties, issue positions, policy alternatives and proposals for reform. It warms many Americans’ hearts to think that democracy is among this nation’s precious exports, its gift to the world.

The CP-Ga platform's first subject after the preamble is the sanctity of life. The Party's supporters and members understand that this God-given unalienable right along with the right to defend innocent life in the Second Amendment are the foundation of our citizens' rights and responsibilities.

Georgia Right to Life has held high the standard regarding our public official's duty to protect the sanctity of all human life. The article below by GRTL president Dan Becker so reflects the Party's approach to restore justice that it is worthy of reproduction here and sharing with your friends.

Would you vote for a law where a 20 week fetus is given an anesthetic and then “humanely” aborted? The Montana legislature passed such a bill and is waiting on the governor's signature. This bill is “unjust” and displeases the Lord who will hold accountable a nation who despises His ways.

Many Americans are familiar with the March on Washington led by Martin Luther King, Jr. on August 28, 1963. They have heard about King’s message that day, “I Have a Dream.” But what most people don’t know is that sermon had been preached nine months earlier by King in a segregated high school in Rocky Mountain, North Carolina. The story surrounding the recent find of the tape recording of that message and the event is worth hearing. A portion of the recording is included in the News-Observer article.

Our fellow patriot Jack McLain, Florida State Party Vice-Chairman, stepped off the field of this life and into eternity in the presence of the Lord Jesus Christ on Saturday, July 25th. Jack’s online obituary can be found at the Taylor & Modeen Funeral Home site. I encourage all who have been touched by his life and work to sign the online memory book. Please pray that the Holy Spirit comfort his wife Lois and their family, and that He fill their hearts with rejoicing: Jack is now with his Savior.
