Alan Keyes (born 1950) is an American conservative activist and pundit, and was a Republican candidate for president in 1988, 1992, 2000, and 2008.[1] In 2004 Keyes unsuccessfully ran against Democrat Barack Obama in the Illinois U.S. Senate, after the former Republican nominee, Jack Ryan, dropped out when details of his divorce proceedings were released to the media. According to the Obama camp, as studiously reported by NBC affiliate WMAQ-TV of Chicago, Keyes is alleged to have said that Jesus would not vote for Obama.[2]
During the Reagan administration, Keyes served as an ambassador to the United Nations. This position made him the highest-ranking African-American in the Reagan administration.
Alan Keyes became a notable figure in the birther movement.[3]
