“Some say that student performance data is artificially high because low performing students are sent back to the local public schools. You essentially cream off the best students. In the same way, the school summarily dismisses underperforming teachers. Is this an accurate characterization of Beacon Academy,” Scott asked. “The philosophy of Beacon Academy, and, frankly, the mission of The Movement as a whole, is based on the concept of pure liberty. We believe that the greatness of America was built on the foundation of freedom. Freedom is the ultimate gift that America offers its citizens. With freedom comes a capitalistic spirit.

Thank you for having me, and a hale and hearty hello to all of your faithful listeners,” Edward said. “We here at the CBN have been following your announcement to run for Governor of Virginia with great interest. We’re intrigued by this tour of yours. Can you tell us a little bit about it?” “Of course. For much of the past decade, I’ve been blessed to work with a talented and driven group of individuals who believe in the concept of God-given natural rights and freedom. We’ve been building a movement that celebrates liberty. I’m on a tour of the nation, highlighting these initiatives,” Edward said. “Interesting. So, tell me Mr. Birch, what do you say to the values voters in Virginia? What in this movement of yours speaks to the heart of the hundreds of thousands of Christians across your state? Why should they vote for Edward Birch?” “I appreciate the question, Gordon. I know full well that the success of my candidacy will only be made possible with the support of good Christian men and women. But I’m going to forewarn you, some of what I have to say may not be what you’re used to hearing. I’m not the type of candidate who will divide the electorate by pandering to one group or another. My message of liberty and freedom is designed to appeal to all people – Christians, Jews, Muslims, and atheists. Men and women of all faiths, colors, and creeds will find a home in my message,” Edward

My name is Gilbert Thomas and I’m a 42 year old minister from Rhode Island. Although some ministers choose to ignore party politics, I think it is desirable for every minister and I to preach about politics because it could not only help preserve civil justice, but I feel that we also have an obligation to voice the whole counsel of God, which encompasses all human relations. I choose to vote for John Adams. Thomas Jefferson has presented his ideas in which he believes there should be a separation of church and state. Jefferson and the Republicans demand this, but at the same time, introduce religious endeavors into their own politics.

Treen’s campaign was ineffective because the bulk of it was based around his morality, and not about his will to get things done in office. Moreover, Treen’s track record in office fell short of Edward’s record. Maginnis believed that “given the immense personal power attached to this office” people chose to vote “not on a political or moral basis but on a psychological one.” In contrast, because of Edwards’ captivating, go-getter personality, the people felt he was a more effective leader than Treen (pg. 72). The public wanted a self-confident, assured person in office who was a “winner” (pg.

Machiavelli gives an ideal view of the of what qualities a political leader should emulate.
