There is Strength in Numbers - Why I started TCUnation.com

January 27, 2009

Greetings Great American Patriots!

A little over a week ago we launched the new website for The Conservative Underground. The website is a social network just for conservatives. In just those few short days we've gained some 800 members. A great start to rebuilding the conservative movement.

Many of you came from the facebook page created a few months ago. That page has grown to over 8,000 members. Facebook however does have limitations, therefore I created http://www.TCUnation.com. This site is for all of US.

I have received many emails regarding “What can I do” or “I am willing to help” which is great. We are answering them as fast possible and will certainly find a spot for those willing to jump in and help with the site. We also keep a “Help Wanted” section on the homepage.

There is more to The Conservative Underground than being just another social network. I started it so WE can begin rebuilding the conservative party. You say, well the GOP or Republican party is the party that stands for conservative principles. Generally yes, but we need to make sure the new leaders in the GOP will adhere to conservative principles. We must also stand in opposition to those who go against our principles. A tall order these days.

For me personally I am not excited about the outlook for our country. Just turn on the news! Even scarier, I have 3 children that will grow up in a country I am gravely concerned. This is why I created The Conservative Underground. I'm not perfect, can't recite history books and my spelling stinks. I'm just a regular American who's ready to get OUR country back.

You ask, “what can one person do?” Well, you are reading this along with 800+ other members from a site that didn't exist two weeks ago. This will also go out to 8,000 members on our facebook page only 3 months old. So from my little home office and a laptop I am reaching 8000+ people with a message.

There is strength in numbers. That is a powerful and true statement. We lost the election, but only by a small margin. Remember, 50+ million people voted for McCain. Actually this may be a positive, in that we can take the time to get our own party back on track!

So what can you do?

Pledge to recruit at least 5 people to join The Conservative Underground, explain our mission and encourage them to recruit 5 people.

That's all I am asking. I'll do the rest :-)

Just think if all 800 of you could recruit 5 people to join, and encourage those 5 to do the same. That's 20,000 members! One step further 100,000, then 500,000... You get the picture.

How long would it take to send an email telling a friend about TCU, five minutes? Isn't the future of our country and our children worth just a few minutes of your time? The time to act is now. We have a long road ahead but we do have time. Two years from now it will be too late.

The future of TCU? It's partly up to you. In my mind, this is the tip of the iceberg of where OUR site is headed. I have many plans for new content, activities, contest etc..., to help spread the conservative message. But I encourage you to jump in with your own talents and ideas.

We have almost two years before the next election. Let's not sit back, wait, and pull a lever and say we did our part. Our country has been there for us for over 200 years, now it's our turn to step up to the plate in her time of need. Trust me, the opposition is not going away and in fact seeks to silence anyone standing in their way.

WE are in this together.
THE time to act is now.
PEOPLE are the foundation for our country, not the government.

Thank you for joining TCU!

I also thank you for devoting so much time to our conservative values and establishing a grass roots effort to get the party back together again. With our core values intact and a strict determination to stand behind our values and beliefs, we can forge ahead to the next election with strong candidates and a strong party.

I've got a blog. I usually just blog about art & artists, but I'll be happy to devote my share to the conservative efforts.

Thank you again for taking the time and setting this site up. I know it takes a lot of work to maintain. I too cannot spew out facts of history...though i have learned A LOT during this election cycle as I have never paid closer attention to any election like this last one. I am not techie, I am not a great writer/blogger, I am not a great public speaker BUT I do believe in conservative values and I am willing to help out if I can. Right now I am doing my best to spread the word about this site on FB and twitter.
