“… it’s not surprising that they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion … as a way to explain their frustrations.” Barack Obama (April, 2008)
“Deep-seated cultural codes, religious beliefs, and structural biases have to be changed (to allow women access to) “reproductive health care”. Hillary Clinton (April, 2015)

Whatever Happened to the Democratic Party?
As we begin another long season of campaigning for Virginia state elections this fall and for the presidential election next year, we are repeating an outstanding program with E.W. Jackson that first aired in 2012 just before the presidential election between President Obama and Mitt Romney.
Although some of his comments are now dated, what he said then is perhaps even more compelling today — especially for those who may still be uncertain about which party and which candidates most closely reflect their core values and therefore who better deserves their support on election day.
At that time, following the Democratic National Convention where delegates tried to remove God from the Party Platform, Jackson ignited a national fire storm by calling on Christians, Jews, and all Americans to “Exodus Now” from the Democrat Party.
As a former Democrat himself, he charged that “The Democrat Party and its ‘progressive’ coalition have become anti-God, anti-Bible, anti-church, anti-family, anti-marriage, and anti-life. They have turned their back on us. It’s time for us to turn our backs on them.”
An Escalating War of Values
That is because, as we have noted before, we are engaged in a Great Civil War of Values with a home-grown enemy that is attacking the very beliefs, principles, and freedoms that define America and for which our forefathers fought and died. That has been particularly true during the past six years of Democratic Party leadership. For example:
— We are in a war against greed, corruption, and cronyism within our own government which has plunged us into a national debt of more than $18 trillion. That is nearly $57,000 for every American citizen and more than $154,000 per taxpayer. Reckless!
— We are in a war with groups like the ACLU, Planned Parenthood, NARAL, and homosexual militants as our own government promotes abortion, same-sex marriage, and often takes the lead in attacks on our religious liberties. Godless!
— We are in a war with Islamic extremists and terrorists who are calling for global domination and targeting America and Israel as their number one enemies, and yet which our own government seems reluctant to identify, much less confront. Clueless!
— We are in a war with our own government for dividing us along race, gender, faith, and class lines and for imposing extra-constitutional mandates and regulations on us without our permission. Senseless!
Exodus Now! E.W. Jackson Speaks Truth to Power!
A Marine Corps veteran, Harvard-trained lawyer, then-candidate for the U.S. Senate and later for Lt. Governor of Virginia, founder and President of S.T.A.N.D. (Staying True to America’s National Destiny), and senior pastor of the church he founded, Jackson is clearly concerned about the direction of America today.
We will ask him about his two brief but powerful calls for an “Exodus Now”, both of which have gone viral on YouTube with over one million hits. We are incorporating them into the program, so you will be able to watch the interview and his two Exodus challenges by clicking HERE anytime.
Finally, we will ask what “We the People” can do to help restore America to the Judeo-Christian values and Constitutional principles on which America was founded and has prospered.
