These are times that cry out for leadership!

Here';s where we stand:



Our leadership has little or no morals.



Our foreign policy fails to produce real allies, and most of our domestic policy destroys individual freedom and initiative.



Congress, having committed our military to a bloody war, plays politics in place of creating plans for victory.



We're running the biggest deficit in the history of the country.



We're losing the manufacturing edge to Asia, while our competitive advantages in business are lost due to foolish government regulations.



Gas prices are skyrocketing, and nobody in power has a coherent energy policy.



Our schools are in trouble.



Our borders are like sieves.



The middle class is being squeezed every which way.



We have allowed the political leadership in this country to forge a new



Political America, which no longer follows the principles that are at the root of our original success.



Fed up with the status quo? Get REAL.



Want to fight back! Get REAL.



The restoration of our country requires that we find the right leaders willing to do the difficult work. REAL is a new organization that provides a way to measure the worthiness of political candidates.

Ed Tommasino is a retired information systems professional with an interest in the future of America. Having seen the changes that have occurred to our federal government—its size, waste and cost—he believes there are enough concerned Americans to help to restore the country’s leadership to individuals of character.
