'Demographic Winter' Message Well Received at 2008 Values Voter Summit

'Demographic Winter' Message Well Received at 2008 Values Voter Summit

WASHINGTON, Sept. 16 /Christian Newswire/ -- Don Feder, communications director for "Demographic Winter: the decline of the human family," spoke at last week's Values Voter Summit, in Washington, D.C., the premier national gathering of religious conservatives.

The Summit is sponsored by Family Research Council, Focus On The Family Action, Alliance Defense Fund, Family Research Council Action and American Values. More than 2,000 attended this third Values Voter Summit.


Family Research Council President Tony Perkins says "'Demographic Winter' is a timely account of a crisis we cannot ignore. The loss of confidence and the decline of faith that afflict much of the West are leaving us with empty cradles and emptier hearts. This film is a call to recover the family so that we can renew our future."

Speakers at the Summit included former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, Dr. Alveda King, Phyllis Schlafly, Bill Bennett, Chuck Colson, Tony Perkins, CNN's Lou Dobbs, Rev. Jonathan Falwell former Governor Mitt Romney and actor Stephen Baldwin, among others.

Feder spoke at the Friday morning plenary session on "Demographic Winter: The Crisis of Declining Birth Rates." He told the audience: "In the Western world, birth rates are falling and populations aging. The consequences for your children and grandchildren will be catastrophic. Demographic Winter is very real and very scary."

"Demographic Winter" producer Barry McLerran commented: "While sobering, the message of the 'Demographic Winter' was well-received. Besides bringing this vital information to leaders and activists of the social conservative movement, those attending the Summit purchased 160 DVDs of the documentary."

Feder also did a number of radio talk shows from the Summit, including "The Albert Mohler Program" on the Salem Radio Network and "The Sandy Rios Show" on WYLL in Chicago.
