How To Win Any Election

 

 

 

Please bear with me - some of this may rankle some of you at first, but stop and think rationally about it before discounting it offhand. For those of you saying "There won't be any more elections", worry not - there is still the final option - hostile takeover. There are 100 million of us, and under tyranny, that number will grow. But this must come first...

The first step is to create a platform with two purposes in mind. First, it needs to center around populist ideas such as patriotism, the Constitution, liberty, and smaller, less-intrusive government that is fiscally more stable. And second, it needs to be attractive to the majority of the voting public. A VAST majority. I won't pretend to be an expert in such things - the leaders we choose for our movement will work that out.

Two things that will be critical:

1. Defund the current GOP. Do NOT donate to the GOP, or any GOP candidate for which we have an alternative candidate. Instead, ALL our donations should go directly to the independent campaigns of our chosen candidates. In this manner we put a choke hold on the GOP - either they back our candidates, or they lose. Sure, they will still have their mega-donors and PACS, people who want to retain the establishment status quo. To counter that, we would have to be very vocal in making it known that THEIR candidates will NOT get our 80 million votes, and therefore cannot hope to win.
2. We must be extremely careful as to who we support. They need to be vetted like no one else has ever been vetted. They must be smart, strong, charismatic, happy, God-fearing, trustworthy and patriotic to a fault. Strong on the Constitution, fiscally responsible. Morally sound. People who easily attract others. This is not to say they need be perfect - but if they have made big mistakes in the past, they must come clean, and seek redemption so it cannot be used against them. Reagan came clean about having been a liberal Democrat early on. Yes, I know - I am describing a bunch of Ronnie Reagans, Donald Trumps (without the Trump baggage) and Kristi Noems. A tough task, but we must do it.

At this point we have one or more strong leaders, and a number of great candidates, all on board with a truly good platform that the majority of people can accept, if presented properly. The final major step is at hand - how to get our message out in a manner that attracts followers and wins people over. Note that it is not out of the question to win over a lot of liberals - Democrats that are not happy with the boot-leg liquor their party is trying to force them to drink - what is often referred to as "the koolaid". We can do this. We can win them, just as Reagan did. All we need are two things: the right message, and the proper presentation. We can have the greatest message ever delivered - but if we can't get people to listen to it - want it - we will lose, every time.

And here is how we do that. Trust me - this is one area in which I have substantial experience (which I will attempt to demonstrate at the end of this post).

To win any election there are a few simple things to consider:

1) Understand the audience (average voters). The average voter today is often not well educated, not well informed and may be inexperienced (as in under 25). The average voter does not have the time to "keep up" with the news, and is often preoccupied with entertainment and celebrity. In short, not well informed. Democrats know this, and use it to their advantage. We need to use it even better, by having a better message and presenting it in a way that grabs voters' attention. So...

2) Play to the largest share of the audience by reducing our message to its lowest common denominator. If our message is geared to the best educated and well-informed, our message will only reach 1/3 of the voters. But a message geared to the lesser informed will reach both groups - the informed, and the non-informed, which doubles the audience. Dumb it down - stop trying to show we are the smartest people in the room. That turns people off. Make them feel smart for following us.

In order to have our message resound with the greatest number of people, we must first form the message in such a way as to be understood by the least educated and least informed among them. Intelligent people will understand facts, statistics and logical explanations, but simple people will not understand such intellectual explanations. If they do not grasp our message, we will not get their votes. Use the KISS principle - Keep It Simple, Stupid.

3) Make your message entertaining (see #1), as well as informative. If you do not entertain, you will not hold their attention, and hence will not reach them with your message. Once our message has been simplified and made easily understood by even the least educated, least informed and inexperienced, it is imperative that the message be presented in an entertaining fashion. People today are consumed with entertainment and celebrity. Show most people a picture of Kim Kardashian or Brad Pitt, they will know who it is. Show those same people a picture of Mitt Romney or General Mike Flynn and they probably will not have any clue. Try it if you don't believe me.

Jesus, Aesop and Reagan all understood this principle of educating via entertainment. Jesus taught by using parables that entertained, yet instructed. Aesop used fables to do the same. And Reagan was "the Great Communicator" because he used stories, humor, and helped people draw a mental picture they would remember. So, instead of "political ads" on YouTube, create an entertaining video that could go viral, and inform people while entertaining them.  Make it interesting, funny, or whatever else it takes to draw and hold their attention. After all, not many voters remember the Republican ads about health care. But every voter remembers the Democrat ad of a Republican pushing a wheel-chair bound Granny over a cliff! Use topics of general interest coupled with humor and imagery and you will capture your audience, all while educating them.

4) Sell the sizzle, not the steak. People do not buy "features" - they buy the BENEFITS that those features offer. Know which "benefits" the average voter wants, then find a way to help them get those benefits by following us. 

I learned this while investing in real estate. If I told a buyer that "This home is close to schools", all I would get is a nod and a yawn. But if I told them that "Mom can sleep late because the home is close to schools", THAT got their attention. If I  said, "The missus will enjoy this great kitchen", they would roll their eyes, but if I said, "Imagine the great family gatherings and parties you could have with such a great kitchen", that would strike a chord with the buyer as they envision entertaining in that home.

Republicans are lousy at advertising the benefits of their platform, and too often concentrate on merely listing features. We need to create PICTURES for the small-minded electorate, not just words. Conservatives are good at offering great ideas and plans, but liberals are good at using imagery designed to appeal to an emotion, not intellect (which 38% of people lack in any quantity).  Remember - the liberal mind runs on emotion, not logic. By inserting emotion into our messages we can get them to remember our messages. Emotion is the glue that liberals (and many other people) use to hold onto their beliefs. If you doubt that, read the tweets of someone suffering TDS.

The uninformed do not pay attention to grand ideas, but they will always be attracted to a pretty picture. Bear in mind - a whopping 38% of the electorate have no clue what is going on, and they make choices based not on reality, but on the pictures they have in their minds and the emotions to which they are attached. To them, a photo-op is not just perception - it is reality. Hence, conservatives need to start presenting their ideas with simple pictures or images that appeal to the voter's emotions.

Again, consider the impact of that visual of Republicans pushing Granny over a cliff. Many voters will not vote for you if they don't even remember your message.

Liberals win elections because they use pictures, entertainment and stories to sell their agenda. Instead of a lengthy, boring dissertation on how we can fix Medicare, they simply showed a Republican pushing Granny over a cliff. Instead of a lengthy discussion on the role of government in our lives, liberals produced "The Life of Julia." As they say - one picture is worth a thousand words.

If you doubt that last statement, think about Hurricane Sandy. More than 1/3 of voters in 2012 stated that Sandy affected their vote. They were swayed by the emotion involved. Even though President Obama actually did nothing to help the victims, everyone saw the photo op of him being praised and hugged by powerhouse Republican Governor Chris Christie. The picture told voters that Obama was "presidential" and also "praised by Republicans." That is what made an impression on voters - not the long-term misery that Obama never bothered to actually address.

We live in a culture where most voters simply cannot be reached unless they are being entertained, and the message is kept simple and creates imagery. Take that to the bank - either appeal to the audience, or lose them.

Democrats won the woman vote because they offered BENEFIT. They won Latinos because they offered BENEFIT. The won black people because they offer benefit. And recently they even stooped to offering cash cards - illegal, yet effective. Republicans need to repackage their message to offer better benefits (keeping it legal, of course) and offer them in a way that holds voter's attention.  An example - Democrats offer hungry people a fish (welfare, a benefit). Republicans offer to teach hungry people how to fish (a feature). Voters say, "Darn, I have to waste time learning something, and then spend time actually catching and cleaning those fish." Instead, Republicans should emphasize that by teaching them how to fish (feature) they and their families will never be hungry again (benefit). Get it? Sell the sizzle, not the steak.

IMPORTANT: Every patriotic conservative with a desire to restore our Republic needs to do at least this much - pass this post on to everyone you know. That is the only way this can work. It must get into the hands of the people who are capable of putting it in motion. Anything less than all of us pulling together would only mean failure, and no chance to preserve America for our children and grandchildren. Please think about that before walking away from this.

IF WE DO NOT STAND UNITED, WE WILL FALL!

 Earlier I promised you an example of teaching by entertaining. Here is one I wrote 10 years ago. 

Now it is up to conservative patriotic Americans to put in the effort if they want to give their children and grandchildren a free, viable and strong Constitutional Republic. It will not be easy, but it is the only alternative to a globalist, socialist (or communist) world, with nowhere else to run.

Oh, and by the way - you can use these same methods to be more successful in all that you do.

How To Save Our Republic

                                                             (click to enlarge image)

America is on the brink of self-destruction, as global elites and liberals seek to usher in their New World Order. No, that is not a conspiracy theory - it is fact. If you doubt that, research the United Nations edicts of Agenda 21, Agenda 30 and Vision 50.  This is as real as it gets, folks!

The question: will we allow it to happen, or will we fight back?

Frankly, I see little reason to hope that enough of us will choose to fight. Many are not informed. Many more are either too willing to let others do the work, or they are simply cowards, having consumed way too much soy that is in most foods - even baby formula - today. Soy is estogen, and it makes us weak.

If we are, however, willing to fight for our liberty, our Republic, there are certain things we can do to right this ship. The rest of this post describes what steps we can and must take.

 

First and foremost, we need forensic audits especially in the states that had huge ballot dumps in the wee hours of the morning of November 4th. If even ONE state de-certifies and flips to Trump, that is the key. While a few Electoral College votes will not change the results, what it WILL do is throw the entire election into question. And that, my friend, will make it necessary to audit every state, as the election itself cannot be legally certified until ALL states are certified. If one state de-certifies, NO ONE IS PRESIDENT! So, what then?

Under the Constitution and the law, the military would take the reigns UNTIL such time as the remaining states hold audits. But they need not all flip - if enough states flip to return 38 Electoral College votes to Trump, Trump wins. And because he never conceded, he can retake the office of President once those Electoral Votes are certified by Congress, and he transitions and is re-inuagurated.

That is the most likely chance of putting the rightful person in  the Oval Office. But that is only the beginning. We must then fix what got us here...

STEP #1: First and foremost, together we have enough power to get more true conservatives elected to office - local, state & federal. We can break the back of the establishment, using the power of our numbers, and perhaps our own party, if necessary. A party founded specifically on the Constitution and principles of liberty, that government serves the people, not vice versa. A government whose power is derived from the people, and not used against them. Put up great candidates. Support them. Stump for them. Get out the vote.

 STEP #2:  We need to retake the legacy mainstream media. We do this by buying them up - or breaking them by taking away their advertising revenue. We can support very wealthy conservative billionaires in an effort to buy those outlets or, failing that, set up a corporation and a fund that conservatives can contribute to for that purpose, and choose conservatives to run them. We can even act TOGETHER to boycott ALL the advertisers of the media, reducing their stock price enough so we can buy more stock. We can BREAK them. But the key ingredient is that we work TOGETHER, and with purpose.

We can do the same with "social media". We have the power to strip them of their following to a great extent by forming or using new platforms, as was done with Parler and Rumble. Working TOGETHER conservatives can weaken the hold that the media has on the narrative that the world hears. This is absolutely crucial!

STEP #3: Take over education. Get VERY active in the local school boards. Vet the teachers that are hired. Monitor classes, textbooks, subjects. Make sure the children will be educated without being indoctrinated. Get rid of bad teachers. But that is not enough - those teachers graduate from colleges and universities that are run by liberal professors and staff, and the teachers have likely been compromised. Therefore, we must also take back the institutes of higher learning. We can REFUSE to allow our kids to attend liberal institutions. We can stop giving them our money. We can support institutions that are not liberal. We can encourage "future teachers" - perhaps with a scholarship fund - to attend non-liberal institutions and insist our school boards hire them over others. NOTE: Scholarships are how global elites help to manage a students' education, and get their hooks in them

We can pressure our Congressional leaders to stop subsidizing ANY institute of higher learning, and particularly those whose staff does not consist of as many conservative professors as liberal ones. Hit them not only in the pocketbook, but also politically. There are enough of us (if we work together) to pressure Congress regardless of which party is in control. 

These are the main areas on which we must focus. If we cannot pull together, it's all over. And there is nowhere else we can go...
