I’m going to the first quarterly Blogger Blood Drive today. If you’re in the SLC or Utah County area, I hope you’ll join me. If not, I hope you’ll consider starting one in your own area for next quarter.
See the Serenity Foundation National Bloggers Blood Drive page for more general info.
I’ve blogged before about why I think America is in trouble. A Ron Paul presidency would have gone along way toward fixing some of those problem (or at least prevent them from worsening), so I was sad to see that he clearly wasn’t going to win. I’m amazed, however, how his candidacy brought these important issues to the forefront, and I was pleased to see loads of passionate people mobilize around his message of liberty.
As Ron Paul’s 2008 presidential campaign officially came to a close, I was enthused to see his longer-term Campaign for Liberty initiative replace it. It had upwards of 50,000 people sign up over the weekend, but membership growth has slowed somewhat since then. Regardless, I’m glad to see a this more permanent fixture of liberty come into place; and I hope that it will be effective in promoting the principles of liberty, sound money, limited government, free markets, and non-interventionalism for years to come.
I think we have a long way to go, but I’m relieved to see people still rallying around this excellent cause. I hope you’ll join us to help make America a safer place for liberty, prosperity, and peace.
