CRA-CONSERVATIVE REPUBLICAN ALLIANCE

BIOGRAPHY

Raised in a family with strong values, Javier Manjarres' parents instilled in him the strong core conservative values he possesses today. Naturally confident and assertive, he learned early in his youth to take control of that confidence and put it to good use. His ambitious and resilient personality helped him to excel as a Business major in college and later as a small business owner. Having traveled to over 30 countries, Manjarres credits his experiences and understanding of many different cultures and customs for helping to mold him into man he has become. While on his travels abroad, he developed a passion for several types of combative arts. Two of the arts that have perfectly resonated with his strong personality, and that he is constantly pursuant of are Muay Thai and Israeli Krav Maga. Never one to mince his words, Manjarres wears his beliefs on his sleeve. He is not afraid to face down politicians and hold elected officials accountable. And not being someone to back down from asking tough questions, Manjarres has gained the reputation of being consistently aggressive and provocative. As Javier Manjarres would say, "The CRA is the proverbial right hook of the conservative movement."

Her bid to run for the open Senate seat has left her house seat in district 91 open in next year’s mid-term election.

Robert Lowry takes on Debbie cupcakes

By Javier Manjarres | 08/23/09

Florida’s 20th Congressional District is a very strong Democratic district—it has a Cook Partisan Voting Index of D +18, and its current representative in Congress is Debbie Wasserman-Shultz, a notoriously liberal Democrat with a perfect liberal voting record. After her initial election in 2004, the Republican Party has been unable, or perhaps unwilling, to identify a viable Republican candidate to effectively... read more »

CRA Interview: Charlie Crist Gets Stoned

By Javier Manjarres | 08/20/09

Last night I drove down to Miami Beach to interview political operative, Roger Stone. Roger’s history of working with some of our country’s most prominent politicians has made him one of the foremost authorities on Republican politics. As I entered the the Stone residence, I was greeted by Roger’s entourage of personal assistants- his 5 pooches. It was warming to learn that Roger and his wife rescued one of... read more »

Crist Receives Standing 8-count

By Javier Manjarres | 08/18/09

It is starting to look as if Governor Charlie Crist’s highly-touted popularity with Floridians has eroded to a level that would have been considered inconceivable not too long ago. Over the past several months, Governor Crist has been convincingly defeated in statewide Republican Executive Committee (REC) straw polls by his primary opponent, Former Speaker of the Florida House of Representatives, Marco Rubio. In... read more »

Operation: ¿Qué Pasa USA?

By Javier Manjarres | 07/26/09

As part of our ongoing challenge to turn Florida and the rest of our country red, I am proud to announce Operation: ¿Qué Pasa USA? We are all well aware that the key to winning future elections is to embrace the Hispanic community. Last November, we saw that the overwhelming majority of Hispanics voted for President Obama. Why? I'll tell you why. They, as many others, were misinformed. Let's forget about all of the... read more »

ALPHA - BRAVO - CHARLIE CRIST maintains radio silence

By Javier Manjarres | 07/16/09

Over the past month or so, I have been carefully observing the moves of my favorite politician, Governor Charlie Crist. In the lead up to the public reporting of fundraising figures at the end of the June fundraising cycle, Charlie’s handlers intentionally lowered their public expectations as to what his fundraising haul would be. After those 2nd Quarter fundraising figures were reported last week, every media outlet in... read more »

Why do Jews Vote for Democrats?

By Javier Manjarres | 07/14/09

For years, we have tried to find reason (or reasons) for why the majority of American Jews vote for candidates of the Democratic Party, because it is important to understand the origin of these voting tendencies. Recently, a small contingent of Jews in the U.S., aided by many Christian supporters, have started to become outraged by the fact that too many American Jews have become too tolerant of the terrorism and violence that... read more »
