The people who like Churchill already vote Republican. Lest we forget, Churchill was run out of office immediately after WWII. Some say that has caused the mess that Britain is in. We’ve tried the soaring platitudes, and they don’t penetrate to the inner cities and the universities. The first rule of rhetoric is to remember the audience. What do we communicate to a university student or an inner city single mother to get them to vote Republican? And how do we transmit that message to them? And I’m tired of hearing how stupid Democrat voters are. They seem to be smart enough to find their way to polling places. We just sit around and lazily listen to high paid consultants who assure us that we can win if we just get seven more people to vote in that precinct in Florida. Baloney. Play for all the marbles or go back to bagging groceries.
“Understand yourself and understand your opponents, and in one hundred battles, you will not be defeated.”
” What do we communicate to a university student or an inner city single mother to get them to vote Republican?”
The former, we tell them bluntly- under socialism, the future you are working toward is an illusion. You will be crushed by the government just like Harrison Bergeron. The latter, I’m not sure is salvageable.
