The Last Exit Ramp

Hang on, the last best hope of man on earth just missed the last exit ramp. Over the brutal and bloody 20th century, we have seen the full spectrum of collectivism around the world. America remained the shining city on the hill, proclaiming Liberty to the world, but now our country is about to experience the full force of collectivism’s horrific and flawed philosophy. So learn to obey the rulers, keep your head down, your heart free and your eyes open.

Republicans Holding Forum to Promote the “Liberty Movement” within the Republican Party of Minnesota

The most significant debate in Minnesota politics is taking place within the Republican Party

(Minneapolis) – Approximately 100 Republicans will gather at a “Liberty Forum” in downtown Minneapolis tomorrow, Saturday Nov. 17, to discuss the future of the Liberty Movement within the Republican Party of Minnesota.

“This event was scheduled many weeks ago,” said Mark Johnson, SD61 Chair. “We planned the Liberty Forum before the election because, win or lose, the most significant debate in Minnesota politics is taking place within the Republican Party between the ‘Liberty Republicans’ and the party establishment. Even had Republicans captured the White House and held its majorities in the Minnesota House and Senate, the Forum would have been valuable. Given the results of the election, it is more important than ever that Republicans have grounding in, and understanding of, what the Liberty Movement is all about as we discuss the future of the MNGOP.”

Organizers include conservative grassroots activists who supported Ron Paul’s 2012 Presidential campaign. Thirity-three of Minnesota’s 40 national delegates to the Republican National Convention voted for Ron Paul, which caused some consternation among establishment Republicans. Presentations, panel discussions and educational breakout sessions will provide the opportunity for forum participants to engage each other in healthy discussion about what the liberty movement means to the MNGOP.

“Ron Paul talks about how liberty brings people together,” said Marianne Stebbins, 2012 Minnesota Ron Paul Campaign Chair. “That’s evident in the diversity of co-sponsors of the Liberty Forum. It’s not the typical collection of Republican interest groups. All share a common belief in the ideas of individual freedom, the pursuit of happiness and limited government – even if they might choose to use their individual liberty, absent the coercive hand of government,  to pursue happiness in very different ways.”

Co-sponsors include Minneapolis City Republican Committee, Young Republicans, NORML, The 56 Club, Log Cabin Republicans, Pfliger for Liberty, We the People Tea Party Group, Justice in Minnesota

Featured speakers include Minnesota RNC Delegation Chair and 2012 Ron Paul Campaign Chair Marianne Stebbins, local Austrian Economics expert Nik Ludwig, and Steven Sutton, V.P. of Development at Morton Blackwell’s Leadership Institute. Speakers will be joined by CD5 GOP Chair Adam Weigold and Dave Wahlstedt in a panel discussion. Also on the program are Margaret LeClair, President of LeClair Insurance and Vice Chair of the Republican Health Care Task Force and Chris Fields, GOP Candidate for Congress in the 5th Congressional District. Guests can choose among 2-hour afternoon breakout sessions in the afternoon. The formal program concludes at 4 PM.

The event is open to the public and begins at 9 AM (doors open at 8 AM) at the Radisson Plaza hotel in downtown Minneapolis. Tickets are $25 at the door, or $20 online. For more information, or to purchase tickets, visit http://www.sd61gop.org/forum.

I Built This


This is the defining moment in the campaign. This is Obama being honest; he is a true collectivist who believes there is nothing exceptional about the individual. If there is a collective reason for your success, it’s that this country’s system of laws defend and protect the rights of the individual. It’s not the roads or the teachers, it’s freedom and liberty to pursue your dreams AND the rewards of your work.
One more thing, if we are all the same and the product of circumstance, then this website would look like every other BPOU website; well, it doesn’t because of me, Mitch Rossow. I built it all by myself because I wanted to.
