If your television declares John McCain the president elect on the evening of November 4th, your television will be lying. You should immediately pick up your pre-packed bags and head straight to the White House in Washington, D.C., which we will surround and shut down until this attempt at a third illegitimate presidency is reversed.
A McCain "win" will not be illegitimate because I disagree with his policies, but because he himself has rendered it illegitimate. He and his campaign and allied supporters have sought to illegally remove hundreds of thousands of voters from the rolls, fraudulently registered people as Republicans without their knowledge and against their will, obstructed voter registration drives, falsely warned students against voting where they attend school, falsely accused community groups of voter registration fraud, falsely alleged the widespread existence of voter fraud, and encouraged supporters to falsely believe McCain's opponent is a foreign terrorist through speeches, recorded phone messages, and flyers. Already in early voting in a number of states there have been cases of votes on electronic machines visibly flipping to McCain or McKinney when intended for Obama. We will see McCain supporters on November 4th challenging people's right to vote, seeking to force people to vote on provisional ballots, and seeking to have provisional ballots discarded. And we will see electronic vote counts wildly out of step with the most recent polls, although not with exit polls -- which we will be denied any access to unless they have been "adjusted" to match the official counts.
Inciting your supporters to violence with racist and religious lies about your opponent, effectively alleging treason on absolutely no basis, should be enough, alone, to disqualify a campaign for the presidency of the United States. Working to block voters from registering should be enough on its own. Any of the dozens of creative forms of vote suppression currently being used by the Republicans should be enough. And allowing votes to be counted on completely unverifiable machines owned and controlled by corporations allied with your party should make the results illegitimate even if plausible. If McCain is declared the "winner," it will not be plausible, but at this point he has so disgraced himself and our electoral system that he is no longer a legitimate candidate for president regardless of what the polls (themselves fallible, but all we've got) say just before election day. Too many people have already been denied the opportunity to even push the buttons and have their votes miscounted. Too much incendiary slander has been let loose. Too much visible vote flipping has already been documented.
If Obama officially wins, McCain is likely to challenge it, charging the Obama campaign with some of the very crimes engaged in by McCain himself. Our reaction should be exactly the same in the event of a McCain challenge as in the event of a McCain "victory." We should not sit back for even a split second and wonder how it will work out. We should not try to organize a plan on the spur of the moment to travel to key battleground states. We should be prepared already to immediately travel to Washington, D.C., head straight for the White House, occupy Lafayette Square Park, the Ellipse, and surrounding streets, block entrances, and shut the place down until Obama is recognized as the president elect or we are guaranteed a credible election with universal registration and hand-counted paper ballots.
We may be there for days or weeks or months. But we must be there. We must be there by the millions. We must show each other, and the nation, and the world that we have had enough, that we will not stand for one more stolen election, that we will not give in to fear, lies, theft, and intimidation. If they choose to attack our nonviolent gathering of citizens, let them do it right in front of George W. Bush's White House with the world's media watching. We will not back down.
I'm not hoping it comes to this, of course. If it doesn't because the official election results are credible and just, we should celebrate and prepare to lobby our government for real change. But if resistance does not develop because people are too scared and obedient to act, then you'll still be glad you packed ahead of time, and you might want to look into tickets to Canada.
But you already WERE, so that's kinda cheating...
Splendid book.
Reginald Denny, I believe.
This is the kind of thing that makes ya wish ya still had a tank.
Be warned: if he doesn't win, there will likely be riots across the country. We can, however, get them under control and go on.
I he's elected - it will be far worse - and our freedoms will be gone for decades...

the last sentence in this thread article: “... if resistance does not develop because people are too scared and obedient to act, then you'll still be glad you packed ahead of time, and you might want to look into tickets to Canada.”
I wouldn't wish them on Canada - but why don't they go to Cuba or Venezuela, or Iran or the “Mother Country” as they call it: Africa?
I'd donate for tickets.
This is one of the “greatest” threads at the DUmp.
you say “Try being a conservative black man.”
We’ve got a lot of ‘em God bless them all.
We have to make sure LTC Allen West, running for Congress in Florida gets into the pipeline.
He’s a real hero, and a Constitutionalist. Brilliant to boot.
I envision a McCain/Palin admin, followed by a Palin/West admin., followed by a Pres. West.
By the end of those administrations, the Marxisrs will be history - for another 30 years, and then they must be fought down again.

~Sigh~ Ain't that the truth.
That's the guy. Remember seeing the video of the group of thugs who dragged him from the cab of his 18 wheeler and proceeded to try and beat him to death? They cracked cinderblocks over his head and then pranced around his broken body like a bunch of savages. I didn't know if they were going to scalp him or eat him. He was finally rescued by some brave citizens (African Americans) who brought him into their home.
I could see that happening in the neighborhood where I teach and it's not going to be me that's victimized. Had I been Mr Denny, the instant somebody tried to take me out of my vehicle by force, I'd dump a full magazine into him from a 9mm or 45. Let 'em dance around that body, but leave me alone. I'm not that worried about my students. Most kids at the school where I teach really want to learn and succeed and they're grateful for my help. All the real thugs and criminals are circling the perimeter. That would include the MS13 factions.
Another-CWII-nominee ping.
THAT be just awesome. However, I'm afraid we don't that kind of time left on the Biblical clock of prophesy.
**MEGA PING**
You would? You know what he means when he says “universal registration,” don't you? It means anyone and everyone can register, regardless of citizenship, criminal background, age, or competency. No ID will be required. No proof of anything.
Sorry, but I am vehemently opposed to such a thing.
I love that picture!
Hey 0bamaoists ..
I think it’s time to start learning all of the words to “Oh! Canada.”
Oh wait .. the Canucks even vote THEMselves a Conservative gubmint! I guess you can move along with Obamao to the Peeps Republic of China and “look at all that infrastructure!”
Well of course they will. All of those TV's they stole during the "No Justice/No Peas" riots for Rodney King are almost obsolete. EVERYONE wants flat screens .. DUH!
Do you see any reason to suspect some manner of opportunism on their part should civil order get shaken?
Given the level of violence and in-your-face behavior we have already seen coming from Obama supporters, I will make a prediction. If McCain wins there will be some rampaging, random violence against perceived McCain supporters. Don’t invite violence, but be prepared to defend yourself.
Thank you!!!
He should be arrested for trying to incite a riot!
