Timeline
Bob Bird (born August 1, 1951, Evanston, Illinois) is an American anti-abortion activist, retired high school teacher, home-school tutor and the chairman of the Alaskan Independence Party (AIP).
Bird maintained that the many problems in the current constitution, created before statehood by the 1955 convention, were too overwhelming to ignore.
Coghill, the son of one of the original convention delegates, agreed changes were necessary, but maintained that the risks of liberal and socialist influences would overwhelm the selection of delegates.
Bird's notoriety stemmed from organizing and leading the first two events of the Alaska Rescue Project in 1989, the largest civil disobedience event in the state's history.
Bird ran as a Republican in the 1990 Alaska primary against incumbent Ted Stevens, earning 34,000 votes to Stevens' 81,000.
He earned his Master's degree in History from Minnesota State University, Mankato in 1992.
He served as president of Alaska Right to Life from 1995–1997, was a delegate to the 1996 Republican National Convention in San Diego as a Pat Buchanan supporter from the Reform Party in Long Beach, California in 2000.
As Nabors was a protégé of Henry Jaffa, the debate was seen as a reprise of the Jaffa/DiLorenzo debate of 2003.
Bird continued with another public debate in front of a large audience on Feb. 1, 2022.
Accepting the challenge to debate whether or not Alaskans ought to vote for a constitutional convention in November, former Alaska Senate president John Coghill and Bird met in a Lincoln-Douglas format in Wasilla.
Bird joined the Alaskan Independence Party in 2004 and was a delegate to the Constitution Party's national convention as a supporter of Michael Peroutka.
He was the AIP's candidate for the United States Senate seat formerly occupied by Ted Stevens in the 2008 senate election.
Bird has been teaching for nearly 50 years on the secondary, collegiate, and home-school levels, at high schools in Alaska and Minnesota, and at Kenai Peninsula College.
He has been a radio broadcaster for KSRM radio in Kenai for the Alaska Baseball League, high school hockey games, and radio talk shows.
Bird earned his B.S. degree from Bemidji State University in Minnesota, where he majored in Social Studies.
In 2008, the Alaskan Independence Party nominated Bird as their candidate for the United States Senate.
On October 29, 2008, Bird was endorsed by former Republican U.S. presidential candidate Rep. Ron Paul of Texas.
The November 4, 2008, general election featured five candidates for the U.S. Senate for Alaska: Mark Begich (Democrat), Bob Bird (Alaskan Independence), Ted Gianoutsos (Unaffiliated), Dave Haase (Libertarian), and Ted Stevens (Republican).
The outcome was not resolved for two weeks until absentee, questioned and early voting results were tabulated.
Begich defeated Stevens by 3,724 votes (150,728 to 147,004).
Because Bird took 13,197 votes (4.15%), an article in The Washington Post'' by Chris Cillizza and Paul Kane suggested that Bird "may end up being the most important third-party candidate in the 2008 race"
Since the election, Bird has been promoting nullification.
He was instrumental in garnering statewide support in 2013 for HB 69, a nullification bill aimed at striking down any future federal gun control laws.
He appeared on television, radio, and print columns throughout the state, as well as organizing large rallies that included a live presentation from Dr. Thomas Woods, explaining nullification's history.
The bill passed after watered-down modifications and was signed into law by then-governor Sean Parnell.
Bird retired after forty-one years of secondary school instruction in 2015 and immediately signed a contract with Kenai Peninsula College as an adjunct faculty member.
He debated Dr. Forrest Nabors of the University of Alaska/Anchorage on November 20, 2015, at the Loussac Library in Anchorage on the topic of "Lincoln's Legacy: Hero or Tyrant?", taking the libertarian position of Lincoln being a usurper of the Constitution.
Since January 2017, Bird has hosted an afternoon talk show, "The Bird's Eye View" on KSRM Radio 920, online at radiokenai.com.
It features politics, religion, the arts, health and nutrition, human interest stories, and the Alaskan outdoors.
He has won three Alaskan Broadcaster's Association "Goldie" awards, most notably for interviewing witnesses of the Iliamna "monster" cryptid.
In October 2020, following the death of long-serving Chairman Lynette Clark of Fairbanks in May, Bird was chosen Chairman of the Alaskan Independence Party at a convention in Wasilla.
The AIP enjoyed a growth spurt in 2020 with enrollment topping 20,000 by December.
