"Not Ready 08"

Gary Bauer: I am writing to you today from Minneapolis, site of the upcoming Republican National Convention. This week, the Republican Platform Committee will be holding its deliberations. I am happy to report that the McCain campaign asked me to come to Minneapolis and advise the committee on a wide variety of issues that are of interest to conservative, pro-family/pro-life voters. I continue to get many opportunities to represent our values with the campaign, a development that I hope encourages you as much as it does me.

The Democrats are in Denver this week for the Colorado coronation of the Obama/Biden ticket. But they will have some unexpected company there, highlighting the very real danger this ticket represents to our country and our values. Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney, Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty and former Hewlett-Packard CEO Carly Fiorina will also be in Denver to expose the Democrats' leftwing agenda. Their slogan is "Not Ready '08: A Mile High and an Inch Deep."

The GOP has also launched a great new website -- www.notready08.com. One of my favorite features on the site is the video board featuring brief clips of leading Democrats, including Joe Biden, making it painfully clear just how unqualified and inexperienced Barack Obama really is. As I noted in my Saturday Special Message, Joe Biden said that Barack Obama was not ready to be president and that the presidency does not "lend itself to on-the-job training." At www.notready08.com you can see a video clip of George Stephanopolous questioning Biden about that very statement with Obama standing right next to him.

I encourage you to click on the "Videos" tab and watch the eight minute "Obama Iraq Documentary." Obama's constantly shifting positions on such a critical issue -- America's victory in war -- is absolutely devastating. His feckless indecisiveness is most definitely not the kind of change we need when it comes to our next commander-in-chief.
