I’ve had many questions about the status of the Views and Values Blog. I need to clarify the transition from private blogger to public candidate for U.S. Senate. My blog will not and cannot cover any campaign issues.
For information about my campaign for U.S. Senate, you must go to the campaign website that we’re constructing: www.Eagar4Senate.com . To follow me, go to the campaign group on Facebook at Cherilyn Eagar Principles for a Change . If you sign up there, you will get all the information you need. You can also follow me on Twitter.
All my best,

Statement by Cherilyn Eagar
Candidate for U.S. Senate
June 11, 2009
Eagar says that Bob Bennett has worked hard, has had good intentions and we should thank him for his service. However, his three-term record has shown that he helped grow the Federal government by trillions of dollars, most of which is now debt. She says that many do not know that Senator Bennett not only supported the bailout, he helped broker it. FEC reports show that Senator Bennett is ranked the #1 Republican in the Senate in campaign funds received from Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac, the organizations primarily responsible for the demise of the free market. Those contributions also rank him #6 behind the top 5 liberal Democrats including Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton.
Eagar is the Vice President of Marketing for WebsTarget by Computer Camp, an Internet marketing company that services the real estate industry. She has been a fundraiser for various charitable causes from Special Olympics Utah to the Children’s Miracle Network and has had lifelong leadership activity in the Republican Party serving on Republican Womens’ boards, as a campaign manager, and as county and state delegate. She is featured in Sean Hannity’s book Let Freedom Ring.
She received high ratings while teaching at Brigham Young University, and at the top-ranked Orange County School of the Arts in Southern California. She was the producer and managing director of a summer musical theatre workshop in New York City for aspiring Broadway actors that the industry paper Backstage ranked as one of NYC’s top two programs along with NYU’s Cap 21 program.
Eagar served on the Women for Mitt committee in 2008 and says she agrees with Governor Romney’s statement that “Washington is broken.” She added, “What we need are elected representatives who will stand on principles for a change. Utah lacks the strong conservative voice needed to stand up against this radical wave of socialism the new Obama administration is riding. This good ol’ boy system of horse trading earmarks for votes must come to an end because it has been slowly but surely killing the Constitution.”
Eagar praised Utah’s state legislature and its leadership. “Utah’s the number 1 managed state in the nation. If I decide to run, it will be Utah to Washington, not Washington to Utah. It seems to me that Utah could teach Washington a thing or two. We just can’t keep running the country on a credit card.”
Eagar has a lifelong record consistent with supporting conservative Republican ideals. “As a child, I worked along with my parents as they helped Ronald Reagan get started in politics in Hollywood, California. I’m principled, passionate, persuasive and prepared.”

State Legislative Members of the newly-formed “Patrick Henry Caucus” (as recently announced on Glenn Beck’s TV show) have scheduled a combined News Conference/Rally to be held Wednesday, May 20, 2009 NOON at the Utah State Capitol (West Stairs, Inside, 2nd Floor).
Founding members Utah Representatives Carl Wimmer, Ken Sumsion, Chris Herrod, Steve Sandstrom and Kieth Grover will unveil their landmark states’ rights legislation which they say will close the loopholes of the much-discussed “Montana gun rights law.” Watch Rep. Wimmer on Glenn Beck’s show here and here
Salt Lake City, UT. Darcy Kruitbosch, President of the Utah Federation of Republican Women, announced today that the organization has joined with Republican women from other states in support of Carrie Prejean, the Miss USA contestant criticized by one of the pageant judges for her opinion opposing same-sex marriage.
“This young woman’s free speech was mocked and censured because she supports the traditional family,“ President Kruitbosch said. “This is a crucial discussion because Congress is now on the fast track to pass a bill that will censure every American’s right to speak out in favor of the traditional family.”
Republican Roots, Rookies, Rightwing Extremism & Reagan’s 11th Commandment
It is estimated that President Obama’s budget will increase the U.S. deficit by $9.3 trillion, 4 times more than President Bush. This reckless spending requires a socialist policy, but worse, it is being implemented by fascist means. For our children and grandchildren, it means taxation without representation (or stealing). This is immoral. If you are concerned and want to be part of the solution here’s what you can do:
1. Join us for a shockingly informative webinar on Tuesday, April 14, 6:30 p.m. Pacific time.
2. Participate in your local Tea Party event.
3. Endorse Glenn Beck’s 9 Principles and 12 Values and join the 912 Project today.
I recently received an email from a teenager who inquired as to why I believed the International Baccalaureate program to promote socialism and undermine religion. As it turns out, she and some of her friends had concerns about it and were trying to make a good decision. Here was my response to her. I hope this will help others as well.
In light of the recent outcome of the G-20 meetings where a “global currency” is now being promoted and where the new plan is even referred to by them as the arrival of the new world order, parents ought to consider the alternatives to public school - that is, if they hope their children will even know what freedom is and what the principles were upon which this country was founded.
Are you concerned about what’s happening in Washington D.C.? Are you alarmed at the dramatic shift to socialist solutions? Or are you simply confused about what’s happening and wondering whether there is really any threat to your freedom?
Join Earl Taylor, President of the National Center for Constitutional Studies, to discover why Glenn Beck believes the principles in Cleon Skousen’s 5,000 Year Leap are linchpins for the survival of freedom, the free market, and religious liberty.
