Fight the Left in 2012


If you think the progressive left is going to just lay down in 2012 and accept that their ideas have failed, think again.
What We Face in 2012
The left is renewing their efforts to impact state and local elections. Moveon.org, New Organizing Institute, Democracy for America and other left-leaning groups have committed to finding 2,012 progressive candidates for state and local elections. Their efforts are going so well that they have now raised their goal to 5,000 progressive candidates for 2012. You can learn all about their efforts at www.2012for2012.org.
Why This Matters

Thank You for 2011

 

 

Friends,

Thank you. 

2011 has been an incredible year for American Majority and for the conservative grassroots.

You were amazing this year. Together, we celebrated our 500th in-person training since American Majority's inception. Working with dedicated grassroots groups around the country, we've been able to train 1,800 new, dynamic candidates for state and local office.  In addition, we've now also trained 18,000 grassroots activists on how to be "effectivists" and really bring about change in their communities. 

At every crossroads, we found strength in the groups that continue to make this all possible. Because of you, we were able to do more than we imagined. We made tremendous progress in the face of an aggressive, liberal establishment. Despite those odds, we were able to open new offices and start exciting projects that will carry over into 2012 and beyond. 

So thank you. Thank you for standing up when it counts. Thank you for never giving up. And thank you for everything you do to support our work, and help good candidates make lasting changes for our country. Look for more information on what was accomplished this year in an upcoming email.  

Happy New Year.

All the best,

 


Ned Ryun
President, American Majority
 
P. S. 2011 was a fantastic year. With your help, 2012 can be even better! Please consider donating $12 to help us train more activists and prepare more conservative candidates in 2012. Your small contribution this year will be put directly back into the grassroots in 2012. Thank you for all you do and have a safe New Year's Eve.

The Groundswell, December 2011

Conservative Euphoria

 

Sure, we all know the complete craziness that descends upon us this time of year. And anyone who's been watching cable news also of course knows about the presidential primaries that promise to spoil many a New Year's Eve in snowy states like Iowa and New Hampshire. I'm not even going to talk purely about those.

Because of what else I'm seeing, I started thinking this month about writing a little piece called "The Balkanization of American Politics". But that phrase has been so overused as to become mind-numbingly boring and ultimately meaningless.

Yet a phenomenon I first heard of while I was training in the tiny, former Yugoslavian Republic of Macedonia is exactly what's happening right now.....

The Groundswell, November 2011

Power, Inc.


When I was a kid, my Sunday school teachers often referred to an entire class of people described in the four Gospels: the scribes, priests, temple officials, even the Jewish Sanhedrin, who always seemed to turn out against Jesus. 

I have to confess I never really understood it. 

It took years—and a lot of life experience—for me to grasp what organized groups (religions; societies) and institutionalized systems look like up close, and what they really do.

I don't think I have to tell you it's usually not pretty.

Whether it's Penn State or politics, there's always a reason why the masses never can quite fathom why what's being done behind closed doors is actually being done....

Giving Thanks!

 

 

Standing Together?

 

From all of us here at American Majority, we'd like to wish you and your families a very safe and happy Thanksgiving.

We're always reminded, at this time of year, of how grateful we are for such a dedicated and courageous group of supporters, working with us to preserve the vision of freedom that was in the hearts of those first American settlers. Know that, as we bow our heads at our Thanksgiving tables this year, that we are thinking of all of you and the great work you have done - and are doing - for this great nation.

 

 

From Our Family to Yours,

Happy Thanksgiving.

 

What do the Tea Parties and Occupy Wall Street have in common? Judging by recent news reports coming out of the Occupy camps, not much. But as American Majority President Ned Ryun argues in his latest piece at Huffington Post, there might be something in common at the heart of both movements: frustration at the practices of America's financial institutions.

Ned takes a look at how government and big banks have formed a long lasting, incestuous relationship that threatens our freedom and our system of government, and asks which 2012 candidates will have the courage to put an end to the Wall Street crutch!

Will You Join Our 2012 Team?

 

 

 

Dear Friend,

 

A year from today, Americans will go to the polls to elect a President. It won't be easy, but we can change course. However, did you know there are  300,000 other local, state and federal races that will also impact your future?  The question is clear: will we choose more, real liberty for ourselves, our families, and our communities?

 

We at American Majority work hard every day to help people like you get the tools to win elections, beat back big government growth, and fight the Left. Whether it's against unions in Wisconsin or political protection for Wall Street, American Majority is there to help citizens organize, fight and win.

 

We're there on the ground, training grassroots activists and identifying candidates who'll fight for the right values on school boards, city councils, and in state legislatures. We help folks committed to preserving what's best in America become the conservative farm team: a nationwide network of competent, credible leaders who'll move the needle back in the direction of fiscal sanity and smaller, more responsible governments.

 

And we need your help.

 

Over the next twelve months, we'll work even harder, training more than ten thousand individuals. We know our immediate future depends on other Americans dedicated to this country and what it stands for.

 

But we need partners in the fight. We're asking every friend of American Majority--everyone who believes in our unique mission--to step up by donating $12--one dollar for each month--to our training programs, and encouraging friends and family to do the same.

 

$12 doesn't begin to cover even one of our state-of-the-art, in-person trainings. But $12 can give conservative activists, campaigners, candidates, or college students all six of American Majority's most popular 24-page printed manuals. $12 can teach anyone--anywhere--effective volunteering, mastering social media, mapping political precincts or protecting against voter fraud. Just $12 can put the right tools for the fight next year into the hands of thousands.

 

 

Just $12 truly can make a difference. We hope you'll join us.

 

Sincerely,

American Majority
