1/24/12 (SWITZERLAND) Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria, Dr. Michel Kazatchkine, a French clinical immunologist and head of the $22.6 billion fund has abruptly resigned, since revelations about corruption and misspending severely rattled some of its biggest donors.

Governor Roemer issued the following statement in regard to his campaign:   “Tomorrow, I will formally end my bid for the GOP nomination for President of the United States.  As the GOP and the networks host debate number twenty-something this evening, they have once again turned their backs on the democratic process by choosing to exclude a former Governor and Congressman.  I have decided to take my campaign directly to the American people by declaring my candidacy for Americans Elect. Also, after many discussions with The Reform Party, I am excited to announce my intentions of seeking their nomination. It is time to heal our nation and build a coalition of Americans who are fed up with the status quo and the partisan gridlock that infects Washington. Together, we will take on the special-interests that control our leaders and end the corruptive influence of money in politics so we can focus on America’s top priority – jobs.” WHAT:  Yowie Online Speech 9:00am PT/12:00pm ET WHEN: Members of the media and public are invited to view the speech online at or at WHERE: Staff will also be live-tweeting the event at r, live-posting on Governor Roemer’s Facebook page at , and on Governor Roemer’s Google+ page at .

Give Utah A Choice! Sign Our Petition!

The Reform Party of Utah will be out at the South Towne Expo Center again this weekend, for the boat show! We'll have petitioning tables set up, so come out to chat with us, ask any questions you may have, and of course sign our petition for ballot access! 

Let's give Utah the choice to vote for a candidate who will not accept special interest money, will work to create fair trade agreements that protect our jobs, and will fight to end corporate welfare and restore fiscal responsibility and accountability. 

We'd also like to give a big thanks to the hundreds of Utah residents who have already signed our petition. Those few seconds of your time will help to provide Utahns a choice to vote to end corruption on a national level, and will also provide a path to the ballot for local politicians who value integrity, honesty, and accountability.
