CBN News Video of Bloggers at AFP Summit - #AFP08
Dr. Bill Smith, Editor, ARRA News Service and National Political Director, Let's Get This Right appeared "unknowingly" in a CBN News video supporting a story titled "Fiscal Conservatives Rally, Work on Message" CBN News reported on the American for Prosperity (AFP) 2008 Defending the American Dream Summit. [In the photo: Dr. Bill Smith, Jenn Sierra and Bob Weeks]WASHINGTON - The largest gathering of fiscal conservatives in the country was particularly worked up at this year's Washington conference of Americans for Prosperity. They're mad that Capitol Hill liberals are blaming the free market and capitalism for the current economic crisis. . . .Other videos courtesy of Bob Weeks of Wichita Liberty: Bloggers Row at 2008 AFP Defending the American Dream Summit and Eric Odom's Bloggers Row at AFP Defending the Dream.
But AFP's annual gathering is as much about equipping conservatives as it is having them rally and demonstrate. The old-style politics is do something like this: a rally where many people gather in one place to deliver a message. But the New Politics is many people deliver many messages from every place. And that's possible through New Media. . . .
So what goes into the category of New Media? These experts reel off names like RedState.Com, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Wikipedia. . . . AFP is teaching conservatives to use the mega-encyclopedia of the Web, Wikipedia, which many
don't realize is written and edited by ordinary folks.

I REALLY wanted to go to that shindig, but with our upcoming trip, I just couldn't manage it. Maybe next time. :/
