Vanity: No need for a majority. We CAN get America back!

Posted on 11/07/2012 2:44:57 PM PST by ConservativeMan55

If we want this country back we CAN get it back. People say "The demographics have tipped against us". That may be so.

But let's figure out WHY. Sure there is a huge welfare state and it is only getting bigger. BUT. Let me ask you this question. How many states passed Gay Marriage laws yesterday?

Maryland, Maine and Washington. With many more to come in future elections right? How much of the US Population do gays make up?

Last I heard it was like 3 to 4 percent.

3 to 4 percent of the population and they're well on their way to getting THEIR agenda passed.

HELLO!

Hard working Americans make up 50 percent of this country!

Do you think Chik-Fil-A was a fluke? Hell no it wasn't.
A VERY vocal minority can make serious change.

We have to be VERY vocal. VERY Aggressive. VERY passionate.

A majority doesn't automatically get us what we want anymore.

People are saying it's too late and it's all doom and gloom. But I remember just a few years ago.. people were talking about a sleeping giant being awakened.

Remember the woman confronting Arlen Spector? There are TONS of people who don't even involve themselves in politics.

To get our message out we're going to have to fight like there's no tomorrow.

Because if we don't.. there may not be one.

Having said that I'm open to suggestions as to where we should start. Let's take this one step at a time.

What's the easiest thing we could do to organize and make a small change? Start small and work your way up!
How do you boil a frog???

Let's hear some suggestions Freepers!

For the last year Gallup has been adding sexual orientation to the series of standard questions they use in their polls. That's during a period of 9% response rates.

Gallup found that 3.5% of their respondents indicated GBLT relationships.

Understanding that all polls are easily manipulated by a small group that does not pass up the chance to answer them, a very small less than 1% group can actually be made to seem much larger simply because they answer pollster calls with a higher than normal frequency.

When a small group always answers and the normal population answers only 9% of the time, that means the small group makes apparent size 11 times bigger than reality.

So, when gays always answer Gallup polls ~ probably because they know that question is being asked ~ and they turn out to be 3.5% of respondents, you divide that by 11 and that will give you just a little over .3% as the real answer.

VIrtually all other polls where they ask sexual orientation they usually end up with a large number of non-respondents anyway ~ non-gays have an aversion to answering questions from strangers about sex. Gays have no such aversion ~ it's just more advertising for them. So, the real answer may actually be even less if we factor in the aversion factor for the non-gays. That'd be .15% ~ or just 15/10000.

I think we begin the 2014 campaign TODAY.

Not me, I have given my all for years to facilitate change and other then GW's victory, is has all been for naught. I woke up this AM and decided to lay off the politics. We have to recognize we are in the minority and our dear R leaders are "too nice" to fight........we can't do it alone.

Maybe the establishment R's should quit given us flawed and boring candidates.

We were better off when state legislatures chose senators. The 17th was snake oil sold under the guise of empowerment when it really did nothing more than strip power from the states. Its also a great example of why the national popular vote is a nation killing idea.

The GOP has a firm hold over Michigan but Detroit, Ann Arbor and Flint elect two senators who hold no loyalty to the state.

Patronize businesses of like minded people.

Do not give your money to, and do not hire people who vote against your interests.

Romney lost by less than 1% of the popular vote.

All we really need to do is change the vote of 5% of the Obama voters in the battle ground states.

Zero in on the ones that already the closest ideologically/culturally and focus on them like a laser.

We don’t have to take back 50% of the population.

Elections come down to 11 states and whoever controls the purse strings to handout programs can continue to influence votes.

I stole the above quote.

As well as jail cells for those who disobey the Constitution.

>>I say we need to start lobbying for better Voter Id laws. Strict voter ID laws.>>

I’m in NY State. I wasn’t even asked for ANY form of identification. I simply had to sign my name under my last vote. Anyone to whom I had ever sent a check, etc. could have copied my writing and signed the book and stolen my vote.

In addition we use the paper ballots where you fill in the circles and then put it in the machine which registers your vote. There was nothing to indicate at that point that my vote was for Romney, the machine just swallowed it.

"Maryland, Maine and Washington. With many more to come in future elections right? How much of the US Population do gays make up? Last I heard it was like 3 to 4 percent."

You are forgetting what I suppose could be best referred to as force multipliers. All things being equal, three or four people facing off against 100 would not stand a chance. However, if you give those three or four a few hundred yards stand off, concertina and claymores to channel the 100, and a few M249 SAWs, then the 100 would not fare so well.

The minority gays have such multipliers; a sympathetic media, widespread propoganda in the public schools, friendly courts that will promote their agenda, even some denominations that feel the importance of promoting their acceptance.

I'm certainly not saying you haven't made a valid point; a small minority can effect huge changes, but they need some leverage that gives them an advantage that disproportionately amplifies their small numbers.

The gays have the media totally owned. They run it, they display themselves on it, and TV is the world’s reality.

There is something about a glowing TV screen that hypnotizes people. I mean really hypnotizes them.

How is it that gays can get their agenda passed being in such a small minority??

That's because they approve of gays and use them to promote their sick agenda.

They hate conservatives. We had three fantastic black conservatives, Herman Cain, Allen West and Mia Love, during this election cycle and they trashed them all. They will hate us and ignore us even when our numbers dwindle down to a similar percentage as gays, blacks or Hispanics. Hell, our own party doesn't give a crap about us.

I hate to be so negative but it is over. For the next election, if there is one, there will be over 50% on government handouts who will vote for any Democrat that promises more handouts. I hate to say this but if Hillary decides to run in 2016, they will elect her with even a greater percentage.

Bottom Line (and I hate to be so negative on this terrible day): Liberals HATE us and HOPE we die.

R.I.P. America

It’s easier to get out 2% more Republican voters. They are already there. Just give them a candidate with some ideas they want to see implemented and they’ll vote for him.

That is how I am feeling too. Can you imagine ever being able to pass a tax cut after Obamacare? You think throwing granny over the cliff was extreme. We would be portrayed as murderers every day.

You do not understand the power of elitism, foreign invasion, systematic cultural cleansing and hate propaganda targeted at a native people in order to take their land, resources and way of life. Britian’s elite even selected a “superior” minority to help rule over and undo and enslave the native majority. How do you think the Brits took over India and large parts of Africa?

American-Americans would have to organize and do non-violent civil disobedience on a massive scale to move the global humanist powers that have conquered our constitutional Republic and demonized and cleansed our culture. Violent up-risings will just give them the excuse to commit genocide. People are as an infestation of cockroaches to humanists.

The homo’s may only be 3%, but they run the schools. In my opinion, start with taking over the school boards. You don’t need any special skill set to be a board member. You just need to have the time.

To change the handout addiction in this country you’d have to end handouts. Detox. But that can only happen if society collapses. The courts and polls are no help. Which is why peaceful secession is the answer.

Why? Are you kidding me, you don’t know? People would rather be given a livelihoods than work for it. How you going to get people to want to work again? Only way is by imposing starvation...which could happen. That is probably the only way “back.”

Blaming the “establishment” is looking for a boogie man that does not exist. We must look somewhere else.
