Go to?www.libertyandprosperity.org?and learn these important details to the remarkable story of Richard Somers and America’s first war against Muslim Jihad.

3. ? ? ?How Americans created a navy from scratch in 1798, with Richard Somers and most ship commanders who were just over 20 years old.
4.????? How Americans mastered reading, mathematics, history, and science when they finished school at age 16. ?How they mastered the skills to run ships, farms, and businesses by age 21. ? How low taxes and limited government made most Americans rich by European standards by?age 30.
5.????? How young, inexperienced ?Americans like Richard Somers defeated veteran Muslim fleets that defied the most powerful navies of Europe for 300 years.
6.????? How the Tripoli ambassador told Thomas Jefferson and John Adams in 1785 ?It is written in our Koran that it is the right and duty of the faithful to plunder or enslave anyone who does not acknowledge the Prophet?. (Which is why Thomas Jefferson bought an English translation of the Koran for his library.)
7.????? How the Muslim Kingdoms of North Africa captured more than one million Europeans and 15 million Africans, and sold them into slavery until America stopped them.
8.????? How the war that killed Richard Somers in 1804 sparked opposition to slavery here in America.

?Important Special Election for U.S. Senate on Wednesday, October 16.? This is a lot more than a contest between Republican Steve Lonegan, and Democrat Cory Booker.?? Chris Christie Republicans and Steve Sweeney Democrats want this election to ?prove? that no conservative can ever win a statewide election in New Jersey.??? We have less than two months to plan and work to prove them wrong.
Important Ballot Question on November 5 Election?-? A ?Yes? vote will amend the NJ Constitution to require yearly hikes in the minimum wage every year.?? A ?yes? vote will ?kill business, kill jobs, kill opportunities for young people, raise prices, and reward illegal, ?under-the-table?? businesses.????? We need your help to reach business owners and tell the truth about this very bad idea.
?Hold Republican Congressmen responsible for Illegal immigration and Obamacare.???The refusal of both Republican Congressmen Frank LoBiondo and Jon Runyan to make any public statements concerning either issues convinces us that they still support the surrender policies of Republican Majority Leader John Boehner on both issues.??? If they are not afraid of opposition strong enough to defeat them, they will refuse to defund Obamacare.?? And they will support a law that will turn 18 million illegal immigrants into voting Democrats, and will permanently change the political character of America.
?Regular Informal Breakfast Discussions:???Every Saturday, 9:30AM to 10:30 A.M. at Shore Diner, Tilton and Fire Roads by Parkway Exit 36, Egg Harbor Township, NJ.?? Admission free, but please order breakfast so the diner gets paid for the room.?? Reduced price for three special breakfast items.
?We only need one student to form a club in any high school or college.??? If you know any student willing to work with us, ?please contact Seth Grossman by return email or at 609-927-7333.??? We can supply all of the funds, materials, and support needed to let that student form an effective after-school group to give fellow students a chance to learn the truth about liberty and American history that they won?t get in the classroom.
LEARN MORE ABOUT OUR EIGHT POINT PROGRAM FOR 2013.??? GO TO http://libertyandprosperity.org/learn/eight-principles-of-liberty/.? HOW MANY OF THEM DO YOU SUPPORT??? WHAT ISSUES SHOULD BE ADDED??? ???We are proposing two addition points supporting Second Amendment rights, and Opposing Federal/UN Government Control of? public school curriculums and local zoning laws.??
