libgdx with intelliJ base project

[LarryP]

At the above site, I created the stock code for all future code with libgdx.  It works fine for the desktop but when I run the Android part, on both the virtual device and my Kindle Fire, the program stops running before it shows anything.  Debugging shows no errors either.  The message I get inside both my Kindle and Virtual Device is this:

"Unfortunately, MyLibgdxGame has stopped."

Also, here is the output from intelliJ:

//=========================

//=========================

I'm stumped.   

I have run many Android projects before so I know the Android SDK works fine with intelliJ.  Libgdx is the answer for all my future projects, so I have to get this base code working as I can't stand Eclipse.  I've tried for years to like it but we just don't get along.
