Phyllis Schlafly’s Influential Work Leaves Lasting Lessons for Conservatives in 2024
St. Louis, MO: Phyllis Schlafly’s original 1964 book A Choice Not An Echo turned sixty on May 1st. Despite a focused purpose to elect Barry Goldwater in 1964, this book has given lasting lessons to grassroots conservatives for decades.
“We are kicking off a month of celebrations around Phyllis Schlafly’s first and one of her most important books,” said Ed Martin, president of Phyllis Schlafly Eagles. “As we face down the most important election of our lifetimes, Phyllis’s inspiring message of fighting the “Kingmakers” who sought to turn American elections into their own personal selections rings true for us today. Call them what you want, the Deep State, the Establishment, the Kingmakers — they are out in full force to silence, bankrupt, and jail their political opponents (We the People), and it’s up to us to stop them.”
In the coming days and weeks, Phyllis Schlafly Eagles will celebrate the legacy of Phyllis Schlafly and the 60th Anniversary of her book A Choice Not An Echo with a series of media releases, special giveaways, and unique chances to join us in applying this timeless historic work by one of America’s finest patriots.
“Phyllis Schlafly was incredibly prescient,” Martin continued. “She knew how to cut through the spin of both sides and weigh the issues at the heart of the decisions America has faced. Throughout her 70 years in politics, particularly in her release of 1964’s A Choice Not An Echo and the updated and expanded 50th Anniversary Edition, Phyllis knew just how to point grassroots conservatives to the right values and give them the tools to take on the bad actors that are undoing our great nation.”

Martin concluded, “I am so excited to talk about several key lessons her historic first book has in a few installments as our Pro America forces work for victory in the ongoing primary elections and eventually the November general election this year. We must win for the Constitution. We must win for America. And we must remember that incredible patriots like Phyllis have blazed so much of the trail for us to successfully fight these political battles!
“This year, more than ever, the United States needs a real choice (from the presidential ticket on down!), not an echo of the disastrous globalist power grabbers who are planning for the demise of our great American republic.”
