Ken Marrero from The Sam Adams Alliance greeted right-center bloggers from Kansas at SamSphere Kansas held yesterday in Topeka. The SamSphere “About” page describes the Samsphere meetings held in Chicago in March, and in Denver in April and yesterday in Topeka:
SamSphere is a new media forum, hosted by the Sam Adams Alliance, where bloggers and e-activists … can gather together to network and share ideas. SamSphere is specifically geared toward bloggers and e-activists who focus on local and state-level politics, and who are dedicated to the principles of individual freedom and limited government.
Be sure to view the videos on the “About” page to get a better sense of what SamSphere is about:
strives to educate and inform citizens about the important political issues necessary to maintaining a free society, including government accountability, government transparency, property rights protection, fiscal responsibility, free speech, and citizen initiative and referendum rights. In doing so, it aims to broaden the public debate on the proper role of state and local government in society, and to inspire greater involvement of intelligent, concerned citizens.
A number of conservative/libertarian Kansas bloggers met for the first time in person in Topeka to exchange ideas about holding state and local governments more fiscally accountable and more transparent to the citizens of Kansas.
Founding Father Sam Adams said something encouraging when he was writing about the Revolution to a friend. He wrote,
‘It does not take a majority to prevail, just an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brush fires of freedom in the minds of men.’ This is an epic conflict, and it’s a battle worth living for.”
Thanks to the Sam Adams Alliance and SamSphere Kansas 2008, we hope to have more modern-day Sam Adams bloggers in Kansas to counter the left-leaning Kansas press, to restore government accountability and transparency, and to set fires of freedom in the minds of the citizens of Kansas.
