Rick Santorum

Today I listened to Rick Santorum talk to Jeannette Benkovic, host of EWTN's "Women of Grace". 
Rick and Jeannette inspired me and so I wanted to go to my blog that focuses on HOPE. Rick and the show of "Women of Grace" makes me feel hopeful about the future of our country and of our families. Rick Santorum was a candidate for the Republican nomination for President of the United States in 2012. 

 In June, 2012 Rick Santorum began Patriot Voices, a grassroots and online community of Americans committed to promoting faith, family, freedom and opportunity. During his presidential run, Rick spoke passionately about his belief that strong families help produce a strong economy.  Rick and his lovely wife, Karen have 7 children and their youngest daughter, Isabella was born with a condition called Trisomy 18.   Bella’s miraculous life has only strengthened Rick and Karen’s belief in the dignity of each and every life. Rick wants to repeal Obamacare because it is government driven. Rick was the most successful as a government reformer in our history as he served in the House of Representatives as well as the Senate. He wrote the New York Times best seller, It Takes a Family. As a person who values each and every person Rick wrote and passed legislation that outlawed the heinous procedure known as Partial Birth Abortion as well as the "Born Alive Infants Protection Act," the "Unborn Victims of Violence Act," and the "Combating Autism Act" .Today on the "Women of Grace" program Rick was  promoting films that he is helping to produce as a CEO of Echolight Studio. Rick said that he wanted to promote the good, the true, and the beautiful. I agree with Jeannette that Rick is a magnanimous and audacious but humble man. "We can't hide our light under a bushel ....we have to put it on the nightstand". Rick needs to provide for his family but most importantly,he said that we need to build faith and family through inspirational and entertaining films that both children and adults can view together. Don't miss his awesome Christmas movie coming out in November, The Christmas Candle!

"For too long, Hollywood has had a lock on influencing the youth of this country with a flawed message that goes against our values. Now, we can change that," said Rick. I can't even watch TV or most films today and I am so glad that someone like Rick Santorum is taking the lead in trying to change the flawed culture of Hollywood films. Bravo Rick!
