I completely agree with that approach. The problem is that no one is stepping into the leadership vacuum.

I am wondering if perhaps Freepers ought to consider organizing civil marches to show the displeasure that Americans feel over having this election stolen.

Egyptians riot over Morsi in Tahrir Square and even get bloody...yet Americans sit on the rears and do NOTHING.

Such demonstrations need to be backed up the the facts as we know them--and they/we need to challenge our leaders (by name) as to why they have taken no action.

Sometimes leaders tap into the emotions and motivation of the grassroots...and sometimes the grassroots have to speak up and act first...and then prospective leaders will emerge.

My small town (30,000) in GA would jump at the chance to speak out for America and what we have lost by the Obama/Chicago-Style theft of our country.

I'm with you. My little county voted 70/30 against Hussein.

Through the Constitution's construction, i.e. separation of powers, enumerated powers, regular elections, impeachment power, independent judiciary, the Framer's system was designed to obviate the need for political violence.

Unfortunately, too many of the people have been corrupted.

The average Obama voter doesn't know what he gave away because he was never taught what he had.

“The problem is that no one is stepping into the leadership vacuum.”

Funny. I don’t remember that Patrick Henry stood around waiting for someone else to do the job he did. You’d think that with all the loudmouths, absolutism, declarative statements, and posturing that goes on on this site that there are 1000 FReeper Patrick Henrys out there, but there are not.

Apparently we are all perfectly happy to stand around jawboning about how we think things should be while waiting for someone else to do the job we should be doing ourselves.
