photo by Todd Singleton
A A politician with convictions and true faith in God? Seems almost unreal; but in a recent interview with the Liberty Champion, Dan Quayle discussed not only his faith in the Lord, but his trials with the media and his plans for the future.
Q: After so many vicious attacks from the media, how did you keep yourself from fighting back? A: You don't gain anything by being angry. You have got to stick to your beliefs. You have got to articulate what you believe in. You have to stand firm. You just can't let the opposition and your critics get you down because if you show anger then they win. By standing firm,smiling , having an optimistic outlook and talking about our values and what we believe in, then I think that we have won the battle, and the war is yet to be waged. Q: What are you doing to dispel the negative personal and political images portrayed by the media? A: I just take one day at a time. And I thank the Lord for 1 ± everyday that He gives me, and I am convinced that the American people want the truth; they want facts. They are ultimately not going to rely on some caricature that was developed by a rather hostile ill-informed media like at the time of my nomination in 1988. Q: Being an influential politician, did you findtha t you were being pushed to "modify" your values and beliefs to fit into the political spectrum; and if so, how did you handle it? A: I think that I would certainly have gotten a lot better photo by Todd Singleton * ° press had I been more moderate, or certainly had I been on the liberal side that would have helped. But I wasn't going to change. You can't change your basic values, your basic principles. That doesn't mean that you can't change your mind from time to time because everyone does that when they are presented with new facts or changes come about. But there are certain core values like hard work, integrity, faith and the freedom of family that you should never change. Q: Who or what really kept you going through your worst bouts with the media and why? A: Well, my faith kept me going. My family kept me going, friends, the president and the fact that I knew I was right. Q: Coming from a family that owns a newspaper chain, were you somewhat prepared for the barrage of the liberal media? A: I was not prepared at all. I was extremely disappointed in the reactions of the media. I think that they, well, I'm writing a book about it. There is going to be a healthy chapter in the book about the media. As a matter of fact, I'm actually interviewing members of the national press about their coverage of me. And they've said some very interesting things that I'll be sharing with the readers in the book. Q: As a Christian in the political arena, what do you feel is the most dangerous issue facing Christianity today? A: There is a real hostility of our secular elite in this country.which is quite influential toward Christians. You can see this in the lieutenant governor's race here in Virginia where for his religion he was mocked and ridiculed. If he was anything but a Christian, it wouldn't have happened. The media would not have followed him, and he would not have been ridiculed as they ridicule someone who is a conservative Christian. Q: What are your future political goals? A: I'm not going to make any definite decisions until after the book is published next May. For that I'll be thankful. Then after that I'll have to think long and hard about what I am going to do. I'll have to look and dig down deep in my heart and my gut and see what it tells me. I'll have to talk to my family and just think long and hard about it. I love public life, and I'll have to make a decision.
" I certainly believe in the power of prayer, so I appreciate all the prayers that were said for me and for my family. That helps give me the strength and support that I need to go on." During his Super Conference speech, Quayle "pointed" out the importance of standing up for what you believe (above). Dr. Jerry Falwell welcomed Quayle with a warm Liberty welcome before his speech.
