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.

As Rush Limbaugh has always contended, the Left somehow must tinge a Republican or Conservative victory with some form of cheating...and besides, if the 0bama folks think this is a cakewalk, why is there so much panic coming from their side?
And if Ms. Evans or Mr. Swanson want to question voter fraud in elections, perhaps they need to visit the local ACORN Chapter in their neighborhood (if there is one --and if not, just take a cab to the nearest Democrat slum).
We can always use more chemists down here!
Send the National Guard to greet them.
Neil Young can write a song about it.
Oh I do hope they try something like this. General Douglas MacArthur was able to dislodge the “Bonus Army” (veterans of WWI that wanted their bonus to be paid early) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bonus_Army from their “Hoovervilles” during the depression, and they were former soldiers, sailors and Marines. These will be smelly hippy-dippy peacecreeps and anarchist 4:20’s, and the troops and police will have as many volunteer “helpers” (us) as they could ever use.
I have been praying to God that everything that can go wrong will go wrong for these lying cheating thieves and they will be exposed for all to see. God is being really nice to me....hallelujah!
Its not just “us rednecks” with guns
Try being a conservative black man.
Looks like General Powell is needed to lead the Great Marxist Revolution! Viva la Revolucion!
And where is “the One” telling his supporters to not incite?
They would turn the area into a cesspool.
It should be, yes, but Obama hasn't stepped down yet.
Make sure your mom orders enough pizza.
Sorry, couldn’t resist.
“WIIIKKKEEEDDDDDDD!!! “go bags” as well. “
ROTFLMAO!!!
In my neighborhood, in the outskirts of Cleveland, I don’t know of anyone who doesn’t own at least one shotgun, rifle or handgun … bring it on. ;-)
This is to be expected from fools whose party has lost 2 presidential elections in a row, and hopefully it’s gonna be 3!
Count every vote, even if it’s from Mickey Mouse and Spiderman!!!!!!!
If McCain wins, there’s gonna be lots of good stuff to watch on TV election night, especially if the exit polls are way off.
This is rich with all that stink about Obama’s ACORN...these people truly do not live in reality.”
The “reality” for young people is what they want it to be—from minute to minute.
They have grown up playing computer games and “dungeons & dragons type games. They live life as an “avatar” instead of a person like you and me.
We won’t fit into their “reality” and I pray that enough voters who are qualified show up Nov 4 and vote.
Actually, I'd be on board for that.
I doubt it. "Universal registration" means illegals, felons, dead people, children, small animals...whoever the leftwing jerks can think of next.
Not to worry, that story was concocted by a Democrat bigwig’s wife or something. No story. BS.
Like I've been saying for a month now - the bogus, wildly-inflated margins for Obama garnered by over-sampling Dems in the MSM polls are (partly) designed to serve as setup for an "insurrection" in case of an Obama loss.
Why wait? They should leave now while there is still time!!!
