In the days then immediately following his resignation as Chairman of the Sonoma County Republican Party, Michael Erickson reaches out to several of his friends, in order to see if they may be interested in putting on a federalist symposium. His reflection and immediate responses are as follows.

Michael Erickson today resigns from his position as Chairman of the Sonoma County Republican Party. His reflections immediately prior to that decision, along with the actual resignation, may be read as follows.

In his capacity as a Priest in the Anglican Catholic Church, Michael Erickson will deliver the following Sermon from an excerpt in the Epistle reading designated for that day in the 1928 Book of Common Prayer. In brief, the Sermon will contend with the passage, which speaks of Christians speaking “as the oracles of God,” first in the context of what we may discern about oracles in ancient mythologies, and then in the interplay of the freedom of a man with his reliance upon the sovereign will of God.

In his capacity as Chairman of the Sonoma County Republican Party, Michael Erickson comments on the “resounding victory” of the taxpayers in their defeat of Propositions 1A through 1E. He calls attention to the need for “draconian cuts” in spending, since it is the growing reliance of special interests on the public dole which hinders the reforms needed to restore California to her former status as a beacon of prosperity and opportunity; and he blames the voters’ mistrust on “the Democrat and Republican cabal” in Sacramento, that has been out of touch for far too long.
