Unlike a lot of patriots, I've been of the opinion that defeating Barack Obama in 2012 is going to be virtually impossible. I didn't say impossible, but virtually... or pretty darn close to it.
Yes, we all know he is corrupt, lacks transparency, lies on a regular basis, tramples the Constitution, props up the radical Islamic agenda and pretty much ignores the rights and liberty of America in getting his goals accomplished. But here is the kicker...
We knew that in 2007-08 as well.
As a Chicagoan, I find it constantly mind boggling how so many Americans can vote based on the prettiest yard sign or the best designed TV ad. Think about Illinois for a second... our state Government is now acting downright maliciously towards the taxpayers. We're damn near bankrupt, businesses can no longer afford to operate here and the Governor and his Democrat ilk just raised our taxes by a whopping 67% (state income).
But Governor Pat Quinn didn't hide the fact that he would raise taxes, nor did he pretend he would cut spending during his re-election bid. Yet he was voted back into office.
Or what about Mayer Rahm Emmanuel (Chicago) winning his election with a landslide in a city that has some 10% sales tax, some of the highest costs of living in the nation and residents fleeing to the suburbs to seek a more realistic financial scenario?
Do we really have to remind people that Pat Quinn and Rahm Emmanuel are very clear about who funds their campaigns and what interest they represent? Yet a majority voted for them and will likely do so again, no matter how bad the circumstances become.
The point I'm making is that Barack Obama, when running for President, told America exactly what he wanted to do. He told us what his agenda was, and he had a voting record as the most liberal Senator in Washington to back it up.
But that didn't stop a whopping 70,000,000 Americans from casting a vote of confidence for him to run the most powerful country in the world. Now I'm confident Obama has lost a few million votes, but he hasn't even begun the next round of his Presidential propaganda campaign.
Heck, it's already commonly know that he'll spend a BILLION dollars, and his buddies in the NEA, SEIU and others will probably spend at least another half a billion externally. This makes Obama's campaign budget a staggering 1 and a half BILLION dollar marketing machine.
And he's already proved his ability to sell his snake oil to 70,000,000 Americans and get them to the polls. I have no doubt he can do it again, especially now that he'll have a much bigger machine in place, and he's now a powerful incumbent.
As I pointed out in my numbers analysis last night, I believe there is certainly a path to victory when it comes to the numbers involved. At least, when it comes to electoral votes...
The numbers will be irrelevant, however, if we fail to adhere to reality when it comes to our involvement in the upcoming election.
There are several items we as movement activists need to be constantly reminded of:
- Voter Fraud: The third party special interests under Obama will stop at nothing to cheat and steal votes away from Republicans. Their entire infrastructure and existence is on the line, and they view this as a full scale war. We need to begin putting in place a method through which we can monitor, communicate and prosecute voter fraud the second it happens, not several days after.
- Union Power: I think a lot of movement activists fail to realize how important the union battles in Indiana, Ohio and other states are. The Unions will spend hundreds of millions against the GOP and public sector unions get this money from TAXPAYERS. We need to continue keeping this important fight at the top of our minds and not let them slip by with any victories on the battle field.
- GOP Candidate: I know we all have our favorite candidate. At the end of the day, however, I hope we all begin to see the light of reality and understand that we MUST have a candidate that can get 70,000,000 votes in the general election.
- GOTV: Unify and collaborate locally. Do it in a new way and unlike anything you've ever done before. Give your heart and mind to it... sacrifice time at the movies or bowling alleys to organize locally. Be ready to hate your life as a phone bank volunteer or door knocker. Our opponents will get paid to do this, we will not.
- Education & Communication: The Patriot Action Network is about to launch a major news/media hub that will include an enormous amount of news every day. Take this information and pass it to everyone you know. Make sure your friends, family and neighbors are fully aware of what we're up against and what is going on in our country. Don't assume everyone knows it. Assume they don't.
There are many more items to add to this, of course, but this is a start. We can win in 2012, but it will take a miracle that can only be worked through us as a movement (by the will and grace of God).
Yes, we can win in 2012, but it's not going to be easy.
