I see the liberals at wikipedia didn't much like your page.--[[User:Jpatt|Jpatt]] 14:59, 7 July 2009 (EDT)

You think? :D
Are you OK with what we were tying to do with the 9/12 Candidate page and proceed with it here? [[User:WashingtonIsBroke|WashingtonIsBroke]] 16:31, 7 July 2009 (EDT)

:Yep, "We the people" demand these kind of pages.--[[User:Jpatt|Jpatt]] 16:36, 7 July 2009 (EDT)
:Thank you JP! [[User:WashingtonIsBroke|WashingtonIsBroke]] 17:10, 7 July 2009 (EDT)
::Hey people, this page is for "me" not for you to compliment each other. Though I share your sentiments, how is my ego supposed to grow on this page, when you're compliments of one another are taking up space? [[User:Jacobroecker|Jacobroecker]] 18:05, 7 July 2009 (EDT)

This article was deleted from wikipedia due to not being "notable" although it's notability was used as an excuse for a bias that exists on the site. You may want to view the full discussion here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/9/12_Candidate

The added work is entirely that of Jacob Roecker and Joel Munn, both of whom welcome the opportunity to take this article that was degrading wikipedia's "standards" to a place where it might be welcome.

9/12 Candidate

Jacobroecker:

9/12 Candidates is an [[United States|American]] [[Politics of the United States|political]] [[blog]] organization (launched on 23 March, 2009<ref>http://whois.domaintools.com/912candidates.org</ref>) made up of only volunteers, publishing news and opinion from a [[Conservatism|conservative]] point of view. It functions as a discussion forum and group blog for a variety of [[netroots]] activists, whose efforts are primarily directed toward locating and promoting conservative candidates that have committed themselves to a [[morality|morally binding]] contract to represent their constituents and uphold the 9 principles and 12 values<ref>http://912candidates.org/912-values-principles/ </ref> listed below. These candidates represent the political idealogy of the more than 661,000<ref>http://the912project.com/</ref> members of the [[9/12 Movement]]. On may May 12, 2009 [[Glenn Beck]] became aware of the organization, wishing it luck, and offering to host debates for candidates.

== The 9/12 Candidate Contract ==
A '''9/12 Candidate''' signs a [http://912candidates.org/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/912contract-signed.pdf "morally binding" contract] that lists a modified version of [[Glenn Beck]]'s principles and values from his 9/12 Project<ref>http://theglennbeck912project.com/</ref>.

'''9 Principles'''

#America Is Good.
#I believe in God and He is the Center of my Life.
#I must always try to be a more honest person than I was yesterday.
#The family is sacred. My spouse and I are the ultimate authority, not the government.
#If you break the law you pay the penalty. Justice is blind and no one is above it.
#I have a right to life, liberty and pursuit of happiness, but there is no guarantee of equal results.
#I work hard for what I have and I will share it with who I want to. Government cannot force me to be charitable.
#It is not un-American for me to disagree with authority or to share my personal opinion.
#The government works for me. I do not answer to them, they answer to me. <nowiki>*</nowiki>
<nowiki>*</nowiki>''For the contract this has been reworded from the representatives perspective to read: “ The government works for the people. The people do not answer to the government, the government answers to the people.“''

'''12 Values'''
#Honesty
#Reverence
#Hope
#Thrift
#Humility
#Charity
#Sincerity
#Moderation
#Hard Work
#Courage
#Personal Responsibility
#Gratitude
