Additional Information: FRC has posted the video of each major Republican candidate's speech at the Values Voter Summit held in DC in October. The Democrat candidates were invited but declined to attend. The candidates gathered, in effect, to give their best sales pitches on why values voters should support them. We hope this resource will be helpful to values voters who are seeking to determine which candidate best represents their values. You can find these videos at http://www.frcaction.org.
