Glenn Beck to Speak as Part of Educational
Policy Conference February 5th
By Jim Day
Glenn Beck, Michael
Medved, Joseph Farah,
Congresswoman Michele Bachmann, David Horowitz, Brigitte Gabriel, Senator
Rick Santorum, Dr. Ted Baehr, Ann McElhinney
and Mark Hamby are just a few of the many headliners who will be featured
at this years’ Educational Policy Conference
February
4th through the 6th at the Hilton-St. Louis Frontenac
Hotel, which is located at 1335 South Lindbergh Blvd., in Frontenac,
MO (63131).
Sponsored
by the Constitutional Coalition, this will be the 21st Educational Policy
Conference. The theme for this years’
Conference will be “WHAT MAKES AMERICA
WORK? Lessons Our Children and Others MUST Learn!”
Remember,
the way a nation's citizenry views itself affects the way it behaves. If
citizens are unaware of their godly heritage, it is virtually impossible to
pursue policies that strengthen and protect society and improve our general
tranquility. The more thoroughly we study our roots, the better equipped we are
to solve today's challenges.
For
those not familiar with the Constitutional Coalition, the Constitutional
Coalition, which is unique to Missouri, addresses vital contemporary topics
from a constitutional perspective. Government, taxes, national defense,
education, family needs, property rights, environmental and other issues that
impact every citizen of the state are researched and then presented in an
understandable format.
The
Coalition is a tax-exempt educational and research organization that does not
endorse candidates or parties. It is non-partisan and looks at issues through
the perspective of the Missouri and United States Constitutions and other
founding documents. It receives no government money and depends on individual
contributions. Donna Hearne is the Coalition’s Executive Director and she’s
assisted by volunteers and experts in issue research, conferences, and
organizational activities.
This
year the conference opens with dinner (new from last year) on Thursday,
February 4, 2010, at 6:30 p.m. You definately won’t want to miss their keynote speaker, Michael
Medved, who is a conservative political commentator,
film critic, author, and radio program host of the eighth-most-listened-to talk
show in the country.
Continuing
their amazing lineup of speakers is Glenn Beck, one of America’s leading radio
and
television
personalities, who will stimulate discussion at a special rally on Friday
night, February 5th, at 7 p.m., which will be held at St. Louis’ Chaifetz
Arena on the campus of St. Louis University. Beck will bring a unique blend of modern-day
storytelling and insightful views on current events that will rekindle the
spirit of our American freedoms.

Folks, there are conferences and
then there are ‘Conferences.’ This is one conference you do not want to miss.
I’ve attended these conferences in the past and have been blown away by every
presentation. You will not – I repeat - NOT be exposed to
what will be presented at this conference – which is the truth - in any ‘mainstream’
media. Again, I highly encourage you to register as soon as possible
because seating is limited.
