...Forging a New Identity Ma believes the time for change has come. Squished into his train seat, the Harvard-educated lawyer outlined to TIME a detailed program that he hopes will broaden Taiwan's relations with China and eventually lead to real peace. He talks of reaching a "comprehensive economic cooperation agreement" with China that would boost trade and investment across the strait. He even broaches the idea of negotiating a peace treaty with Beijing and putting in place "confidence-building measures" to scale back the military buildup on either side of the strait.

Minister and gastroenterologist Dr. Randy Brinson founded the group during the 2004 election and hired the same media firm that marketed Mel Gibson's The Passion of the Christ to broaden RTV's reach. In 2004, the group organized Christian rock concerts in swing states and singlehandedly registered some 78,000 voters. For this year's Iowa caucuses, the group employed another technique to attract young evangelicals - free samples of southern cuisine like collard greens and banana pudding. Using the same...
