I would be honored to visit with other liberty-loving and
platform-supporting Republicans around the state. Please feel free to
contact me with upcoming events and opportunities.

Thank you...
...to all the delegates who supported me for state chairman of the
Republican Party of Texas. It was a privilege to represent folks with
your kind of idealism, enthusiasm, and talent. I look forward to
working with you in the future and helping to build an even stronger
Republican Party, one whose candidates truly differentiate themselves
from the Democrats and also uphold liberty. I feel a renewed sense of
possibility for refocusing this party on our natural law rights, while
respecting the cornerstones of our society like traditional marriage
and the right to life. I encourage each of you to find a Republican
candidate who shares your values and work to help them get elected in
the fall.
As we go forward, let me remind you of these words from Barry Goldwater
in his acceptance speech as the 1964 Republican presidential candidate:
"Those who seek absolute power, even though they seek it to do what
they regard as good, are simply demanding the right to enforce their
own version of heaven on earth. And let me remind you, they are the
very ones who always create the most hellish tyrannies. Absolute power
does corrupt, and those who seek it must be suspect and must be
opposed. Their mistaken course stems from false notions of equality,
ladies and gentlemen. Equality, rightly understood, as our founding
fathers understood it, leads to liberty and to the emancipation of
creative differences. Wrongly understood, as it has been so tragically
in our time, it leads first to conformity and then to despotism."
I believe these words are applicable to our time as well.
