The following petition will be sent to over 300 leaders in the conservative movement, asking them to join in our efforts to declare independence from the Republican Party and instead establish conservatives as a third force in American politics. Dear conservative leader: WHEREAS the Republican Party has decided to act independently of the conservative movement, and WHEREAS the Republican Party has refused to follow conservative principles on a wide range of issues, leading to its loss of majority status in this country and endangering its hold on the White House, and WHEREAS the party’s leadership appears more interested in maintaining its privileged position than in advancing the beliefs of most of the party’s members, and WHEREAS political movements are most successful when they refuse to tie themselves down to any one political party, and when they let the parties compete for their support, and WHEREAS conservative leaders ranging from Richard Viguerie to Newt Gingrich have called upon conservatives to declare independence from the GOP, THEREFORE we the undersigned call on you, as a conservative leader, to help establish the conservative movement as an independent force in American politics, not merely an adjunct to the Republican Party.
