Red Alert Politics editor Ron Meyer joined the Daily Share on HLN to discuss RAP’s endorsement of Tim Tebow for Congress in Florida’s 4th district. Since the endorsement last Thursday, the Draft Tebow movement has gained serious momentum, trending on Facebook and getting coverage on Bleacher Report, CNN, CBS Sports, and numerous local media outlets in Florida.
The Red Alert editorial states:
In an elected body with 435 members, it’s almost impossible not to get lost in the crowd and have minimal impact. Tebow would never be lost in the crowd, and this would give him an opportunity to lead on issues he is already leading on in his life: fighting poverty, defending homeschoolers, and making traditional values cool again.
On HLN, Meyer responded to questions about Tebow’s qualifications, saying, he is already “making a bigger impact than many politicians who are in there now.” When the anchor pointed out he had no political experience, Meyer asked, “Isn’t that a good thing?”
One of the other strengths the RAP editorial highlighted was Tebow’s strength with millennials. “He could do a lot to bring millennials into this Party… he could be a good spokesperson for the next-generation conservative movement.”
