For us, being an online organization is not just one more tool but a deliberate choice of identity. Traditional groups, bound by the economics of direct mail and the shackles of business-as-usual thinking, segment our society into smaller and smaller "special interests". If there's a splintering in America, they are largely to blame.

But the internet is annihilating those old paradigms, bringing people together like never before. And as that happens, Americans -- and conservatives in particular -- are realizing: we need a better way. A way not bound by the 20th Century's flawed models. A way that brings together a community of shared interests, empowering not narrow issue agendas but a broad coalition for distinctly American values.

At TheVanguard.Org, every member has a voice in what we do, and everyone has a chance to participate. We mean to build a new governing coalition in America based on shared values rather than single issues, where the little guy outweighs the monied establishment. We hope you'll join us too.
