Recently I discovered a new author, new to me anyway.

Ellis Washington has been a columnist at World Net Daily for about a year. I don’t read that site every day, but I read this Editorial by Mr. Washington, who is also a Detroit Native, and was really touched by his words.
QUOTE:

“Nevertheless, the heroic and transcendent ideas and ideals of conservatism and the Constitution’s Framers mean infinitely more to me, to my worldview and to my life as a Christian, as a black man struggling to support his family in America than all the power, position and privilege of mere men.

And that’s why I became a conservative.”

His Piece, A Giant in a Wheelchair, brought tears to my eyes.
All you have to do is read through Mr. Washingtons Archives at World Net Daily and see the editorial titles to know this writer has a complete grasp on the fundamentals of Freedom. I look forward to reading his thoughts weekly, and have added him to my “must read” folder.

His recent words to the Republican Party stand as a powerful challenge to the status quo:

“Twenty years of offering my intellectual, strategic and tactical abilities in vain to the Republican Party to utilize my skills to build new and more substantive coalitions, has not dimmed my resolve nor provoked me to lash out in anger at their missed opportunity. Nevertheless, I do hope that readers of this column will circulate this article to the Republican National Committee and to GOP branches in all 50 states as a urgent plea for genuine coalition building.

The RNC must ask itself why my fellow black Americans would sign up to join a party that has long ago forsaken the conservatism of Ronald Reagan and seems more interested in mimicking slogans of Obama – “consensus,” “change,” “bringing America together.” Ignore the black vote at your own doom. Remember the last couple of elections have been virtually 50/50.

What attractiveness to black people is there to a political party dominated by legions of gray-haired white men in dark suits who seem more interested in securing a better tee time at their local country club than in doing the down and dirty work of substantive coalition building? I cannot answer these questions, but be answered they must!”

Please, take a minute to pass this column along to your local state GOP representatives with a demand that they dump the RINOS (Republicans In Name Only) from positions of political leadership and power!
