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."

Mexican Drug War Serves Up a Hot Tamale for Obama

By Javier Manjarres | 02/19/09

With the economic crises looming large over our heads, the war on drugs has being quietly flying under the radar. For those of you who may not know, just over the U.S.-Mexico border, there is a chaotic war that is being waged by the Mexican government against drug cartels. This is truly a monumental effort by the Mexican government considering that most of their officers and soldiers are in one way, shape or form 'on the take' from these drug... read more »

Porkulus Package in the Deep Fryer

By Javier Manjarres | 02/05/09

We could not have expected anything less from the 'Messiah' and his Liberal disciples. I have to give it to 'the One'; he is forcefully exerting his political capital to pass this spending package. Finally! All of the GOP Congressmen stood up and voted 'NO' against the package. Now, we must agonize over what may or may not happen in the Senate. I just heard that a bipartisan group of Senators are meeting to 'compromise' on 'a' spending plan.... read more »

Path to Power

By Javier Manjarres | 01/18/09

Courtesy of Ernest "Doc" Werlin:In Robert Caro's first volume of hopefully a 4 volume compendium about Lyndon Johnson, the author recounted Johnson's amazing feat of orchestrating huge dollars to Brown & Root in the 1930's. Johnson, then a first term Congressman, used all of his powers and machinations to get funding for Brown & Root for a dam project that had questionable legal authority. Johnson, a very adroit wire puller, even called... read more »

The Endless Inauguration

By Javier Manjarres | 01/18/09

Courtesy of Alan Caruba:I am the last person you want to invite to a party. I am almost always the first to leave. There's something about a whole bunch of people getting together to celebrate anything that doesn't work for me.I am one of those who far prefer a small group of people, perhaps no more than three couples, who can exchange their thoughts and points of view without having to shout over loud music or, worse, to pretend to be happy if... read more »

Operation: ¿Qué Pasa USA

By Javier Manjarres | 01/14/09

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. This past November, we saw that the overwhelming majority of Hispanics voted for President-elect Obama. Why? I'll tell you why. They, as many others, were misinformed. Let's forget about all of the... read more »
