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.

The Science Behind Masks - Facts vs Fiction

by Bill Vaughn

With the advent of the SARS CoV2 virus (Covid-19) there has been a virtual battle going on concerning the effectiveness of wearing surgical masks or cloth face coverings. And it seems that all sides in this issue have dug in, citing conflicting reports. I say "reports" because most of what is being put forth as "the science" simply is not the science at all. Both sides are relying on agenda-driven assumptions, conjecture, and in some instances, outright falsehoods. To muddy the waters even further, every study that has been done over the years, and published in the most venerable medical periodicals have suddenly been erased, and replaced with the opposite narrative. I will get into the reason(s) behind this later in this post. 

Here are several samples of the studies that the medical establishment have relied upon for years - note that these studies were carried out carefully and established as "the science:

                                                                 (click to enlarge)

As you can see, all the tests, data and science points to surgical masks not being effective against a virus. Anything less than a surgical mask is even worse. The primary (but not the only) reason is simple math:

One needs an electron microscope to see a COVID 19 virus particle. Average COVID 19 virus particle size… is 0.125 microns… The hoarded N 95 mask - the best mask available - only filters down to 0.3 microns. So, N95 masks block few, if any, virus particles. This is a simple fact, so you just cannot argue against it. ~Doc Graham, MD

There are other reasons why masks are ineffective, but even more important is that masks can actually spread virus. A mask is really just:

• recirculating your own germs
• lowering your oxygen level 
• certainly negatively impacting your immune system 
• providing a false sense of security so you do not social distance as much
• touching your mask to move it will spread the virus
• the moist environment between face and mask is a breeding ground for other toxins
  
• not wearing it correctly will spread the virus
• reusing a mask - even if laundered - can spread the virus
• taking it off and putting it down can contaminate whatever you placed it on
  

Question: how can breathing in your own germs all the time be ‘safe? If you have the virus, re-breathing it in will make you more ill. And if you do not have the virus, you do not need a mask to keep "other" people safe. In either case, a mask is virtually useless from a medical standpoint.

And then there is this: up to 34 million Americans have some form of chronic respiratory pulmonary condition such as emphysema, chronic bronchitis, asthma and lung cancer, to name a few. Even the CDC warns against those people wearing masks, as it can contribute to serious damage to an already compromised system. I know that first-hand: I have COPD and already having trouble getting enough oxygen, and if I wear a mask more than a few minutes I can pass out, resulting in a fall that could be fatal (I am 73). A representative from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) told Reuters: “The CO2 will slowly build up in the mask over time. However, the level of CO2 likely to build up in the mask is mostly tolerable to people exposed to it. The exception, however, are those with chronic pulmonary issues. Such people are advised to not wear masks."

When Covid-19 first appeared, the medical establishment, from the World Health Organization, to the CDC, to the "experts" like Dr. Anthony Fauci all told us emphatically NOT to wear masks because they do nothing to protect us; that they were only useful in operating rooms. That was (and still is) true. But even in a hospital setting, where the best, fitted N95 masks are used, they still do not fully protect from any virus - that was never the purpose of masks. They are used to protect doctors from other pathogens such as bacteria, and to keep spittle from falling on the patient, and keep blood spatter from getting in the surgeon's mouth and eyes.  All such particles are considerably larger than a virus and will not to get through the mask (N95 means 95% effective against particles .3 microns or larger - a virus is only .125 microns).

Meanwhile, those experts began erasing all the studies cited above, replacing those studies with a completely opposite narrative - one that was not even determined by actual studies, but rather created to further a different agenda, which is described later in this article.

The new narrative coming from the "experts" was a complete reversal of their previous stance. Now they were telling us that masks do work against a virus, and encouraged us to wear them, playing on our "humanity" by claiming, "they are not for protecting you - it's to protect others from you to stop the spread" while also taking advantage of our ignorance. 

Think about that for a moment...if YOUR mask keeps virus from getting out to the other guy, how does your mask NOT keep out his virus coming at you? If your mask does not protect you, then it doesn't protect him from you, either. That is the Big Lie behind the push for masks. So, what does the SCIENCE have to say? At the end of this article you will find a link to many actual medical studies - the science - from around the world that makes it clear that masks do not work, and may even contribute to the spread.

So now it behooves us to try and understand why so many "experts", medical organizations and politicians are intent on forcing mask mandates on the public. And while many people reading this may think it to be a conspiracy theory, it is critical that you understand that while it is a conspiracy, it is anything but theory. The following are facts that you can research independently if you wish. But first a side note: according to actual figures provided by the CDC and elsewhere, up to 70% of "cases" are false positives.  Of all deaths attributed to Covid, only about 6% were actually caused BY the virus - roughly only 20,000 of the reported 330,000. Furthermore, total number of deaths from all causes in 2020 are no different from previous years - there are no "extra" 330,000 deaths:

For centuries there has been a cabal of extremely powerful and wealthy families - some are Royals, most are bankers, and they consider themselves superior to the masses. Envision if you will the feudal system of Merry Olde England, where Lords in their mansions oversaw estates populated by serfs. The serfs were nothing more than chattel - livestock, whose purpose in life was to serve the Masters in the mansion. This is how elites see the separation between themselves and us. I am sure you notice how elites tell us to stop wasting fuel while they jet around the globe, and how they are not obligated to follow the lockdowns or masks they force on us. Surely you have noticed! Rules for thee but not for me.

Get the picture? In days of old, many of the elite were referred to as the Illuminati. In the 20th Century they were involved with the Trilateral Commission and the Bilderburg conference. Today they are called "globalists", with the intent of establishing a New World Order - the "Great Reset" that the United Nations speaks of in their Agenda21, Agenda30 and Vision50 

This is going to sound unbelievable, but you had better believe this...

Make no mistake - their singular agenda is world domination, where they rule, and we serve them as serfs. But it is worse than that - they believe eugenics is a requirement, to rid the Earth of those they deem "unfit", like the elderly and infirm and other undesirables. Such people use up precious resources that are becoming increasingly scarce. Any person unable to produce more than he or she uses will be exterminated. Do not take my word for it - do your research, as others have done. Globalists make no secret of their agenda. For example, Dr. Henry Kissinger stated, "Depopulation should be the highest priority", and John D Rockefeller, a Bilderburg member stated, "We are on the verge of a global transformation. All we need is the right major crisis and the nations will accept the New World Order". And even Bill Gates, our new "vaccine king" stated in a video in 2010, "The world has 6.8 billion people...that's headed up to 9 billion. Now if we do a really great job on new vaccines, health care (infertility drugs in vaccines, like he used in Kenya and India), reproductive health services (abortion), we could lower that by perhaps 10-15%."

So what does that have to do with masks? They understand the truth in the words of Joseph Goebbels - instill enough fear in people and you can get them to do anything. It is really incredibly simple: by creating "the right major crisis" (a pandemic) they scare you into getting you to accept masks, social distancing and lockdowns, which are necessary to weaken our will, our independence. They get us to give up our Constitutional Rights without a shot fired. Those Rights keep them from ushering in their New World Order. And it helps them close churches - religion also gets in their way. Bars and restaurants are closed because that is where people gather and revolutions have been known to start. And by closing the small businesses, the masses are required to buy whatever they need from businesses owned by the elites, like Amazon and WalMart. They are siphoning off all the wealth. Since this pandemic began, the wealthiest people have amassed more wealth than they have in the last decade.

If you think all this sounds far-fetched, read up on those United Nations agendas mentioned earlier. And understand why hydroxychloroquine was banned to fight Covid - if there is a cheap therapeutic, then the tracking vaccines would not be needed nor accepted. And they NEED everyone to get that vaccine. It is the entire reason that contact tracing became a thing (your government has already approved a billion dollars for it), complete with apps on your phone (go ahead - look in your settings). California is already using the app to track people. Imagine trying to fight off the globalists when they can use the tracking in the vaccine to prevent you from entering stores to buy food, prevent you from buying guns or ammo. And those who refuse the vaccine? If the tracing chemical or nanobot is not in your system, the alarm goes off when you try to enter any place of business, much as they do now when you attempt to leave with stolen items.

It does not get any more real than this, folks. And it is already upon us. If the people do not wake up to what is really going on, it will soon be too late to stop it.

First it is masks. Then the vaccine. Then it's all over.

Here are studies from around the world that state masks have no value in protecting people from a virus. There are others...
