"The Best Public Speaker in the Country" — Los Angeles Times

Dr. Bob Bowman is beginning a nationwide speaking tour called the Patriot Tour. Along with his wife, Maggie Bowman, he will be touring from April 10, 2007 to Aug 10, 2007. They will be traveling in their motor home, and supporters are encouraged to volunteer to organize speaking engagements for open dates.

The tour is being conducted by the non-profit Institute for Space and Security Studies ( ISSS ), a 501c(3) organization. Funds raised on the tour are tax-deductible and go to ISSS to pay the expenses of the tour and to fund "The Patriots" project and other public education efforts. The tour is not connected with Dr. Bowman's possible 2008 Congressional campaign.

Col., USAF, ret. is President of the Institute for Space and Security Studies, Executive Vice President of Millennium III Corporation, and retired Presiding Archbishop of the United Catholic Church.

Colonel Bowman flew 101 combat missions as a fighter pilot in Vietnam and directed all the DoD "Star Wars" programs under presidents Ford and Carter.

Professor Bowman taught at 5 colleges and universities, serving as Department Head and Assistant Dean. His Ph.D. is in Aeronautics and Nuclear Engineering from Caltech. He has lectured at the National War College, the United Nations, Congressional Caucuses, the Academies of Science of six nations, and the House of Lords.

Dr. Bob Bowman ran for President in the Reform Party in 2000 and was the Democratic candidate for the US Congress from the 15 th Congressional District of Florida in 2006 (running on a "9/11 Truth" platform).

Dr. Bowman challenges us to "Take Back America" for the people. He explains why we need a government that:

1) Follows the Constitution
2) Honors the Truth, and
3) Serves the People.

Think what a difference that would make! No more imperial presidency. No more undeclared wars of aggression. No more spying on the American people. No more jailing of dissidents. No more corporations importing and exploiting millions of illegal immigrants to drive down wages. No more exporting of jobs. No more NAFTA. No more North American Union. No more government lies, false-flag attacks, and cover-ups. No more corporate welfare. No more health plans written by insurance companies and pharmaceutical manufacturers. No more energy policies written by Exxon and Enron. No more trillions in debt. Most importantly, no more using our sons and daughters to kill Arabs for the oil companies. Let's "Take Back America !!"
