Mitt Romney’s Commencement Speech at Liberty University

Last updated on: May 12, 2012 at 2:43 pm By Nancy French

Great news for evangelical Romney supporters – you are not alone! Despite primary struggles with evangelical voters evidenced by losses in southern Bible Belt states, Mitt Romney has a large lead over President Barack Obama among white evangelical voters, a poll released Thursday showed. The Public Religion Research Institute poll showed Obama carrying Catholic and mainline Protestant voters, as well as voters who did not identify a particular denomination. Romney’s lead among white evangelicals was nearly 50 percentage points, as... Read more

Transracial Adoption, Hair, and What I’ve Managed So Far

Last updated on: May 6, 2012 at 10:11 pm By Nancy French

After my family returned home from Africa with our little bundle of joy, we settled into our new routine with our child in rural Tennessee. The orphanage had shaved her head, so she was practically bald. This is what my two and a half year old daughter looked like the first moment she was placed in my arms… more like a baby than a a toddler. As you can see, I didn’t have to worry much about hair care. I... Read more

The Battle of Vanderbilt: Is Tennessee’s Republican Governor Turning His Back on Religious Liberty?

Last updated on: May 6, 2012 at 8:20 pm By David French

On Tuesday I reported that the Tennessee legislature had overwhelmingly voted to protect religious liberty at Vanderbilt University. Vanderbilt, a non-religious private school and recipient of massive amounts of state and federal taxpayer dollars, had implemented a policy that required religious student groups to open themselves to non-religious leadership. In response, the legislature passed a bill that did two things: (1) protected religious liberty at all public universities in the state to prevent any policies similar to Vanderbilt’s, and (2)...

Race, Politics, and Adoption — Following Up

Last updated on: April 30, 2012 at 9:26 am By David French

Nancy wrote her post last week in part because she was angry. We’re not important in the world of politics, but — as she mentioned — we are “out there” in the public eye on occasion. We have the privilege of writing for widely-read websites, have publicly supported Mitt Romney for more than six years, and I’ve been involved in numerous legal battles over the First Amendment and abortion while Nancy has worked closely with Bristol Palin. So we’re pretty darn... Read more

I’m a White Republican Raising a Black Child: Deal With It

Last updated on: July 14, 2014 at 12:52 pm By Nancy French

My husband and I – and consequently, my children – live a little bit in the public eye. As a writer and memoirist, I’ve chronicled funny and poignant stories from our family’s lives in two books, and as a conservative activist I’ve taken my children to various political events across the Southeast. In 2006 at the Southern Republican Leadership Conference in Memphis, a reporter for Newsweek interviewed my son and discovered he was skipping kindergarten for the conference. “Mitt Romney,...

A Love Letter to Times Square Church in New York City

Last updated on: April 26, 2012 at 12:27 pm By Nancy French

I wrote this article the day after David Wilkerson was killed in an accident in April of 2011, but was reminded of it on when I introduced my daughter to the church last week. It’s still an amazing church, where Pastor Wilkerson’s legacy lives on! In New York, I attended an interdenominational church located at 51st and Broadway called Times Square Church, even though the blue awning over the entrance proclaimed “The Church that Love Is Building.” I mean, honestly....
