Republican National Committee Chairman Robert M. (Mike) Duncan 310 First Street, SE Washington DC 20003

Dear Mr. Chairman,

The Election as well as the Inauguration is over. The “Other” Party won. President Obama is now our President for better or worse. The question is only what is the plan to regain control of either the House or Senate? By now you have of course held soul searching studies as to what went wrong, and believe me, something is seriously wrong with the RNC Strategy.

I know the line for the masses is that we hear you but… Why haven’t we taken positive stands on the following: • Sealing our borders and deporting illegal Aliens. • Create Immigration reform but apply it only to those who obey our laws. • Remove the “Birthright Privilege” to Children of Illegal Aliens. • Eliminate any form of Government assistance to Illegal Aliens • English as the Language of the land. Assimilate legal immigrants into society. • Build the fence on the Southern border. • Photo ID Requirements for elections. • Provide appropriate sentencing for career criminals and or restore the Death Penalty. • Stand up against Political oversight in the Finance Committee. • Deny further Congressional or Senatorial representation from the District of Columbia. • Strengthen our Military. • Authorize the treatment for Noncombatant Terrorists as needed to extract information. • Stop Earmark Spending, both sides of the aisle. • Provide a Line Item Veto for the President. • Create Tort Reform and reduce awards of law suits. • Bring Liberal Judicial rulings to the Public’s Attention every time. • Reduce the Criminal’s rights and appeals process. • Develop alternative Fuel sources. • Support domestic Drilling and production of refineries. • Stand against raising the tax on Fuel. • Reduce Spending by a REAL 4% per year. • Don’t support and call a reduction in proposed Tax increases as a Tax Cut. • Eliminate some Cabinet Posts. • Eliminate obsolete Government Departments. • Reduce the size of Government by 5 % • Eliminate Funding for most Federal Grants. • Provide the House and Senate the same retirement and health care as the Citizens. • Pass Bills that only contain language that pertains to the subject. • Lower Taxes or better yet consider alternatives to the Income Tax. • Use common sense at the TSA when screening passengers randomly. • Eliminate Gerrymandering Districts. • Return to basic Conservative Principals. • Return to basic Conservative Issues. • Get out the Candidate’s message clearly to the public. • Create and use “Wedge Issues” for elections. • Reduce support for Candidates who lean more to the Democrat platform. • Return to a grass roots system to win public support. • Hold candidates accountably for election promises.

The above are some of the thoughts I wish to convey to the Party. We have been losing our identity over the last few election cycles and weakening the ideals we should stand for. If we are going to act like Democrats I may as well vote for them, at least I know in advance that I am going to be in for a rough time.

What part of Common Sense do you not understand? The question remains why do you think your constituents remain uninspired and apathetic? The real answer there is no longer a difference from “My Party” and the other one so why get energetic?

I am sorry this went so long but the ordinary people I associate with are all getting fed up with business as usual. It is time for a change and I don’t mean the President’s.

Sincerely yours,

I feel like going to steps of Austin and hanging a big sign with this letter on it. I too am sick of the crap they expect us to buy. I have a question....can not one of the republican goofballs do anything, like file a suit themselves, collectively?

He may be President but he sure as hell is not my president.

Excellent. I’d like to add one more - “require Presidential candidates to present proof that they are Natural Born citizens.

I might add: No lawyer may write a bill that cannot be interpreted by a five year old.

Line item Veto would not be necessary if you mandate single issue Bills...and write them so a 5 year old understands it.
