Indecision 2008

One loyal Missourian isn't just content to lend Alan Keyes his vote, faith, trust and several thousand dollars from his bank account. Matthew Harder of West Plains decided that the only way to ensure a Keyes victory in November was to get off his rump and build... a billboard!

Says the patriotic young patriot himself...

The initial idea for creating an Alan Keyes billboard actually originated back during the Keyes 2000 campaign. I had a lot along a busy highway north of West Plains, MO, and had learned about Alan through one of his most enthusiastic supporters -- my Dad.

I could not believe what I was hearing from this "politician" himself. Each time I heard him speak, I was more impressed than the time before.

I wanted to be able to do something to help get his name out so that everybody could hear the truth so boldly proclaimed! The circumstances screamed for a billboard. Much to my disappointment, by the time I was approved, permitted, and had finished construction of the billboard, Bush was already "it."

The billboard was ingeniously made from a mobile home frame that Harder had acquired by trading a pig, and was funded in part by his mother -- another fine patriot she -- who sent Harder a check and a note reading "Pay to get'er done, kid!"

And get-er done, he did. The billboard is now on display on the oft-traveled Missouri highway where hundreds -- if not millions -- of people can read its elegantly simple message of peace and prosperity: "Alan Keyes For President: www.alankeyes.com."

And what does this genuine patriot and Christian soldier expect in return for his hard work and invaluable campaigning tool?

Some day, after Alan has served out his second term in office and has a little more leisure time, I'm going to ask him to make it up to me...we're going to sit down with a good cup of coffee and visit.

Something tells me, sometime in early 2017, Matthew Harder just might get to collect on that.

What are you doing to get Alan Keyes elected?

What do you think?
