On Friday, Sept. 14, Alan Keyes filed a Statement of Candidacy (Form 2) with the Federal Election Commission--thus officially announcing as a Republican candidate for President of the United States. This marks Keyes' third, and most ambitious, run for the White House. He indicated he plans to change the political paradigm, which he said is controlled by elites who reject the foundations of the American political system, including respect for the existence and authority of God. . . . The former Reagan diplomat, a Harvard-educated constitutional scholar, and a conservative political activist. Keyes served in the U.S. Foreign Service, was appointed Ambassador to the Economic and Social Council of the United Nations by President Ronald Reagan, and served as Assistant Secretary of State for International Organization Affairs from 1985 to 1987. He previously Ran for president in 1996 and 2000. During the 1996 race, he was widely credited with forcing abortion to the center of public policy debate.
