In June of 1979, Dr. Falwell organized the [[Moral Majority]].  This organization is composed of over 100,000 clergy representing over 7 million conservative, religious Americans.  The Moral Majority, part of the [[Religious Right]], organized a series of voting drives and political demonstrations to advance their conservative point of view and enhance the moral and religious attitudes of the nation.  The Moral Majority is perhaps best known for their work in supporting [[Ronald Reagan]]'s election in 1980, and registering millions of voters to act on his behalf.  [http://www.liberty.edu/index.cfm?PID=6921]

In June of 1979, Dr. Falwell organized the [[Moral Majority]], a coalition of groups whose mailing lists reached over 100,000 clergy representing over 7 million conservative, religious Americans.  The Moral Majority, part of the [[Religious Right]], organized a series of voting drives and political demonstrations to advance their conservative point of view and enhance the moral and religious attitudes of the nation.  It is best known for supporting [[Ronald Reagan]]'s election in 1980, and registering millions of voters to act on his behalf.  The Moral Majority played little role during the Reagan years; Falwell stepped down as its leader in 1987 and it was disbanded in 1989.
