A PROPOSAL

I believe that each state is different, but I would suggest that all those who want to move the Republican Party to the right, go out and join their local Republican Party. Get involved and then start to make a name for yourself. Soon, we could have many more conservatives at the grassroots of the Party. Then we can start influencing things at the State levels. Then the National levels. We need to start today. Take that energy that bound in frustration right now and redirect it.

A few minutes ago, I contacted a State Rep to ask how to best begin my political journey. I hope for a fast reply.

I believe if you go to www.rnc.org it will say to contact your local Republican party. When I lived in East Hartford, I was the member of the EHRP, which met monthly at the Library.

Now I'm a member of HillsboroughRepublican Party in Florida.

Great advice. This is the ONLY way we can advance our agenda. Talk about third party is destructive to our cause. We already have the vehicle available to us. We need to get more conservatives on board telling the bus driver which way to go.

Unfortunately, I’m too much of an individualist, and I agree with James Madison’s concerns regarding the pernicious influence of parties.

Further, I don’t even believe in government, and least not in its contemporary manifestation. I’m not an anarchist. I would like an organization (call it “government” if you must) to raise armies, engage in foreign relations, coin money, enforce contracts, and ensure public order, and that’s it.

The GOP is part of the corruption endemic in our system, and “becoming involved” is simply making peace with the corruption.

I am much happier working, trading the capital markets, traveling, painting/drawing, supping excellent food and wine, and reading fine books than getting involved with politics.
