NJO: "Benjamin Wetmore: A mentor of mine; a genius", said James O'Keefe in an interview in September 2009. So let's take a look at some of the wisdom of this certifiably mentorial influence on James' life.

best practices to shut down more nationwide
Massachusetts Citizens for Life
Prepared by: Ben Wetmore
For the Gerard Health Foundation’s
consideration

People want to close
abortion clinics and are not sure how.
Some have been closed, but pro-lifers are not sure what universal
tactics work and which closings were instead providential. Through this grant, Massachusetts Citizens
for Life will take the methods used by pro-lifers nationwide and test them,
track what works and learn the best ways to close clinics. The beautiful side effect of this research
will be the shuttering of clinics. We
will publish the findings and let pro-lifers nationwide know what worked in Massachusetts. If the tactics work in a state as
pro-abortion as the Bay
State, it can work across
the nation.
Most of the previous efforts
were undertaken by volunteer organizations, and their successes were primarily anecdotal. But anecdotes are not transferable. The lack of serious media coverage has also hurt
our ability to find out what truly closes a clinic. The methods have never been measured in a
scientific and analytical way, and approached using paid staff having this as a
full-time job.
