As of now, the page http://mountvernonstatement.com, unlike the official http://themountvernonstatement.com, still points to a white screen with red lettering stating the name of the web site, joking that even the "the" is conserved, and instructing curious parties to e-mail info@mountvernonstatement.com. I point this out only for my amusement (and yours, possibly), since it is now perfectly clear that http://themountvernonstatement.com is the official Mount Vernon Statement website, but I still want to get to the bottom of this.
Since I received no response to my first e-mail to that address (in which I asked, "What is this?"), I sent another this morning. I have not yet received a response to this e-mail, either. It is a mystery.

The Twelve Points are a statement of conservative principles, objectives, philosophy, and additional guiding considerations, composed by Karl Born, a young Indianapolis writer and attorney, beginning in early 2008, completed on July 2, 2009.
The purpose of the Twelve Points is to serve as a delivery mechanism for distilled, concentrated conservative thinking, with the goal of returning clarity and completeness to popular conservatism, and spreading knowledge of the true principles of conservatism throughout the conservative community.
The idea for the Twelve Points, along with much of the content of the document itself, came from the "Seven Points," which was created by a group of conservative college students in 2003 at Indiana University: Grand Old Cause.
Even in light of the 2010 election results, the conservative movement has become confused and aimless. Certain essential conservative principles and considerations have faded from memory and lost their influence. The Twelve Points will help to solve this problem by reminding us of conservative thinking that we may not have considered recently, and by making that thinking available to new, developing conservatives.
