Proactive Americans: get involved: concerned Americans are becoming personally involved in the political process and finding success as they defend America's legacy of liberty.
Having watched the export of hundreds of jobs over the last decade at a large hi-tech plant in Corvallis, Oregon, Todd Wurster wasn't surprised last year when he was informed that his engineering job was being phased out by the struggling company.

His eyes were opened. "I started reading about the North American Union," Todd continued, "and decided to ...
