When or if you reply, please give an indication if you would want an organization such as this in your state. If you have other ideas about how to get elected officials to listen, lets hear them. We have something here that needs fixing! Let's do it before it is too late.

There are many organizations trying to do the things you've suggested. Unfortunately, just like political parties, there are power struggles within them, just like here on FR. It's more than difficult for law abiding citizens to fight corruption and greed. Corruption and greed and downright law breaking by them gets them the funds to have the power. Immediately what we can do is stop purchasing from businesses who are breaking the law (and let them know loud and clear why) and contributing to elected officials to perpetuate their schemes. We have to stop paying for our own destruction.

Also, we need to find the way to expose every beltway bureaucrat that is hiring illegal help and encourage legislators like Sensenbrenner and Sen. Inhofe.

A good organization for illegal migration seems to be:

This is a question I have pondered and I've come to the conclusion that there is something that can easily be done and which will be about as effective as any strategy.

I've concluded that my own personal strategy to address very similar concerns is to switch my affiliation from the Republican Party to the Constitution Party (something I have not yet done, by the way).

Here is my thought. Just because I change affiliation does not mean that I'm not going to exercise common sense and vote Republican when necessary. However, my switch then becomes part of the statistics that the Republicans consider when setting their own platform. Additionally, when I make the switch the Republicans will come to realize that I'm on *SOMEBODY ELSE'S MAILING LIST* for political donations and support.

And, who knows, maybe if enough people were to make the switch then some day I would be in a position to vote with both my head *and* my heart!

Yes lets nominate a Conservative Republican "Porker"

And organise to get him kicked out of Office!!!!

We will let him know what we are doing and It is too late to appologise.

Let the media know that it is Conservatives who are leading the movement to oust Him...and then Doggedly work to get him kicked out!!

maybe then these gutless Republican wasters will start to
be a little more Ficscally Responsable.

In fact lets start right now...

Who is the worst Tax waster/Porker republican???

Specter? Snow? Who out there is willing to start the

nominations?

I'm sick and tired of talk...and forgiving these 2 faced

RINOS!!! a good ASS-Kicking is in order.

Count me in.

I don't have the time to organize anything in Arizona, but I will support such a group, if someone else gets it going.

I'm making the same switch.

I would have done it before the last election, but the Constitution Party never returned any of my e-mails.

Where did you get that?

Good idea, Duke about dropping your R registration. Any political party takes notice when their numbers go down. Rush quoted a Gallop poll that states Repubs are registered with 38% of those polled, 31% independent and 30% democrat.

Another freeper posted this site that sounds interesting.

"Other polls show that 80%+ are not happy with the way he and Congress are handling the immigration invasion. "

Where do you get this? President Bush has advocated immigration reform and strengthening border security. That's what all the polls show the people want.

The polls show that the people support the same things President Bush supports.

If all Republicans and Democrats switched over to the Constitution Party we would see some very cautious tiptoeing by these power hungry, greedy, corrupt legislators.

They would be as nevous as a bunch of whores waiting on the church steps for a $5 date to show up. Just imagine them having to ask us what we want everytime they get ready to make a move. The $5 date would be in charge once more of what services the prostitutes would provide.

When you switch parties, be sure to send a letter to the RNC explaining why.

Call and WRITE to your congresscritter and let him know how you feel about the funds he brings to YOUR state.

I too am thinking that it is time for this lifelong Republican voter, donor and volunteer to switch parties. However, I'm considering the American Patriot Party because I think that their plan to endorse major party candidates when they align with the platform of the American Patriot Party will be more effective political strategy. I also think that the way they have set up their organization to avoid some of the problems other third parties have encountered is wise. The party is in its infancy but to me holds the most promise.
