Keyes is still persevering in his quest for the White House. He continued campaigning in Texas this week, speaking at a Texas A&M College Republicans meeting on Tuesday. At the meeting, Keyes explained what, in his mind, makes the United States different from other democracies. He said the “certain inalienable rights endowed to us by our Creator and none other”[1] in the Declaration of Independence “’uplifts every human to a status of dignity.’”[2] Last week after Mitt Romney dropped out of the race, Keyes said he would not vote for any of the Republican candidates. With regard to Romney and Guiliani, Keyes told Seattle radio host Thor Tolo he was “’not buying into this whole phony business that's been going on.’”[3] As for the two remaining Republicans, he thinks McCain “’ [has] betrayed conservatism in the name of bipartisanship, but actually in the name of trying to serve his own presidential ambition,’”[4] and Huckabee’s “’liberal’” views on everything except abortion are characteristic of what he calls “'big government conservatives.'”[5]
