America’s Independent Party nominates Alan Keyes for President

Fenton, MI – August 21, 2008

America’s Independent Party met last night in its inaugural National Convention and chose former Reagan diplomat Alan Keyes of Maryland as its nominee for President of the United States.

A platform was also debated and adopted and national officers were elected.

America’s Independent Party is being built by Reagan pro-life, pro-family, “Peace through Strength” conservatives who believe that the Republican Party, with the pending nomination of John McCain, has abandoned the principles of Ronald Reagan – particularly the Reagan pro-life platform plank that recognizes the personhood of the unborn and their protection by the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution.

The party also opposes John McCain on many other important points, including his opposition to a federal amendment protecting traditional marriage and the natural family; his sponsorship of the McCain/Feingold legislation, which they view as a direct attack on their First Amendment rights to political free speech and grassroots citizen activism; his long-time support for so-called “comprehensive immigration reform,” which they consider to be amnesty; and his support for the global warming agenda, which they believe will destroy our economy and strip us of our national sovereignty if pursued as public policy.

Since the founders of AIP are primarily long-time Keyes supporters, their opposition to Barack Obama is simply an extension of the work against the presumptive Democrat nominee that they started four years
ago during the Illinois Keyes/Obama U.S. Senate race.

Chairman Tom Hoefling, commenting on the convention said, “We may not have balloons, funny hats, and millions of dollars pouring into our coffers from corporate sponsors, but we have something that is much
more important: regular folks – housewives, small business people, factory workers, truck drivers, accountants, executives, pastors, moms, dads – good-hearted people who love their country and want to save it. The Republicans and the Democrats no longer represent `We the People.’ That’s why we intend to change American politics from the bottom up, by example.”

Brian Rohrbough is expected to be our Vice Presidential nominee. He became a citizen-activist after his son was gunned down at his school — Columbine. Mr. Rohrbaugh currently serves as chair of American Right to Life in Colorado.
