Here's the plan.
ORGANIZE

Find out about your local Democratic party. Go to their executive committee meetings. Find the ones willing to do the hard campaigning, then support him. Find the dead wood, and show them the door.

We have to move the party back to the party of the community. We need activist in every precinct. We need people willing to learn the names of everyone in their precinct. We need to be face to face, and in their face.

If your local Dems aren't willing to do the work, fuck em. Take over their organization or start your own.

We started our own, and the local Dems followed us.

You got to make it happen people.

You have two years. Do not fail us.

1. Man, I've been doing this since 2000. Let me tell you, the "dead old guar
is still in power, though their margins are less.

It's hard work but it's very effective when you have several like-minded people and can join forces.

Get them to focus on the fact that party has only one purpose "TO WIN ELECTIONS". And if they don't do that, then they're failing and the leadership has to be replaced.

4. Yeah, right
It worked so well this last time. Screw that, time for a new nation based on the ideas of what the United States was founded on in 1776.

5. shit or get off the pot. It is time to organize.
We need to take revenge in the mid terms. You either work with the existing organizations or start something new.


We will gain strength when the military starts to mutiny, the economy goes south, and when the Patriot act becomes a real threat to the people.

We do not need defeatist.

Stand up and fight or get out of our way.
