Remember The Alamo: The Alamo Principles

The Alamo Principles

One hundred and seventy-three years ago today, a small force of men stood within the walls of a crumbling stone fort on the outskirts of San Antonio, Texas. They were in their ninth day of siege, and they were exhausted, haggard and disheveled. The cannons of an investing army had pounded their… Continue

Were these America's our worst Presidents of the United States?

Introduction

It's too soon to judge the current one, but for past presidents, the verdict is in. U.S. News has averaged the results of five polls to make a gallery of the worst chief executives. The years before the Civil War produced an era of failure: Six of seven presidents who served from 1841 to 1861 made the list.… Continue

Letter to Boone Pickens

Boone,

Preface: This email will take you two minutes to read. I considered editing it to about 40 seconds, but feel it important that you see how I come to the conclusion before I deliver a message I believe important to this movement you've helped birth. I've spend years of my life towards the same goal. Please indulge us with the couple minutes and read all of this.

First, I'll thank you for the efforts you've put forth, and the liberty you've allowed in discussing… Continue

The Price of Fuel Went Down. We Made A Difference!

The price of fuel has dropped. We all know it, I know. I have seen the difference in activity here in the Pickens Plan website. Like I posted earlier. We can not loose momentum if the price goes down! They still have control and we all know we are going to run out of oil if we do not change our ways!

Just because the strings on the pocketbook have been relaxed a little, don't give up or think you have done enough! It will slip right back to worse than we were before! We Can Not… Continue

5 Million challenge 20 million Challenge

I would suggest initiating a challenge to achieve a 5 Million member army with a target date of Election Day and 20 Million member army by the New Year. If these numbers can be reached, this nation will be well on its way to achieving energy independence.

1 million is good; do not get me wrong, it is not enough to convince congress or a new administration though. Move with the voice of 20 million strong though and you become a voice to be reckoned with.

And do not stop at… Continue
