Alan Keys is one of the foremost orators on liberty in our time. Unfortunately his organization and campaigning skills have never been nearly enough to get him elected...but he is spot on with these comments.

[Jeff Head]

FYI...we need, and I believe we are going to see, a lot more of this.

Saul Alinsky on "Change"...
From Rules for Radicals, Alinsky outlines his strategy in organizing, writing:

"There's another reason for working inside the system. Dostoevsky said that taking a new step is what people fear most. Any revolutionary change must be preceded by a passive, affirmative, non-challenging attitude toward change among the mass of our people. They must feel so frustrated, so defeated, so lost, so futureless in the prevailing system that they are willing to let go of the past and change the future. This acceptance is the reformation essential to any revolution."

A Landslide Mandate For Change

Congratulations on an extraordinary history making election!

We can think back with pride to decades of hard work toward our strategic goal of a big enough, broad enough and united enough labor and all-people’s movement that could overcome the ultra-right blockage to all progress. That all people’s movement has come to life, it is dynamic and it has the potential to keep growing.

The election of Barack Obama and a strengthened Congress creates new conditions in our country. There is now the possibility to shift gears and move forward. This new day requires us to further develop our tactics in order to continue to deepen and broaden labor and people’s unity.

There are thousands of experiences that we all have had in these momentous days, some large, some small, all of which express the enormity of change in thinking and readiness for involvement that is underway and that steels us for the battles ahead.

The tears of joy we all shared as crowds gathered to watch the election results here and throughout the world dramatize the new moment we are in.

[Think free or die]

Alan Keyes - saying what needs to be said. May God bless and protect him.

[PetroniusMaximus]

We need to be perfectly clear that by “stopping” him we mean using political means to stop his political agenda.

[Riodacat]

And what is his solution to our current set of problems?

[beaversmom]

Is he sure Obama isn’t just someone that we disagree with, but really means well? That was sarcasm. Keyes is one of the few telling it like it is.

[Islaminaction]

The country was warned that Obama is a radical. But they just did not care.

[cripplecreek]

Given Zero’s behavior so far, it’s hard to believe his goal is anything less than the total destruction of the USA.

[Kimberly GG]

May those with the ability to be heard and with the courage to speak the truth, be safe.

Jim Demint / Alan Keyes 2012
Jim Demint / Sarah Palin 2012
Jim Demint / Pete Sessions 2012

or something along those lines.

We will need a STRONG, STAUNCH, UNAPOLOGETIC CONSERVATIVE running in 2012.

No more moderates. No more compassionate conservatives, No more Rino’s.

Ronald Reagan won on a STRONG conservative platform, not some wussy compassionate conservatism crap.

If the GOP puts up another moderate centrist in 2012, you'll see nothing more than 4 more years of this madness Barry and the socialist are dishin out.

[Star Traveler]

Since Obama’s term goes to 2012 and since we have elections in 2010, I would say that the first order of business in order to stop things from “going through” is to change a few people in office in 2010 (which is the closer date).

Bills make their way through Congress and are voted on by the members of Congress. Obama can sign or not sign them, of course, but they still have to “get to him” in the first place for him to sign them.

So, if one wants to stop legislation from getting passed, the 2010 date is a critical one, and “indirectly” affects what Obama can do.

Then, the next date to be concerned about is 2012. At that time, one has to change the “numbers” that we saw from this last election.

You have to change the votes, which were — 69,456,897 votes to 59,934,814 votes. And then you have to change the Electoral College votes, which were — 365 Electoral votes to 173 Electoral votes. And change this percentage, which was shown in the last election to be — 52.9% to 45.7%

Those are the numbers that have to change, and somehow get those people to *switch* (who did vote for Obama) to vote for the Republican ticket instead of the Democrat ticket.

If one does those two things, in regards to 2010 and 2012, then they will “stop Obama”.

I would say that *this* is the focus — and — “methodology” for stopping Obama...

[egannacht]

Keyes lost to Obama by such a landslide as to be a pathetic embarrassment. He was a carpet bagger through and through. Meanwhile the RINO-leaning Illinois GOP should have supported conservative senator Fitzgerald, but stabbed him in the back behind the scenes, leaving us with Keyes.

Now, we’re getting lectured from the same people that brought Obama to power by their ineptitude. Wake me when this nightmare is over.

[roamer_1]

Alan Keys is one of the foremost orators on liberty in our time. Unfortunately his organization and campaigning skills have never been nearly enough to get him elected...but he is spot on with these comments.

Disclaimers such as these will keep him down too. It is the foolishness of pragmatism that criticizes true statesmen and gives bubble-headed posers swift acclaim.

[Reagan Man]

At the very least. If Obama’s agenda isn't stopped, the post-WWII America I grew up in will certainly be gone, forever.

As a candidate, the appeal of Alan Keyes has always been stunted by his hyperventilated rhetoric that divides conservatives, more than unites us.

Btw, Reagan was successful with 80% of his policy agenda and that was fine by me.

[Leftism is Mentally Deranged]

Alan Keyes could have been the first Black president. But the media made him the invisible man. They didn’t trash him because that would have given him publicity. Instead they totally ignored him.
A mean thing to do to a fine, honest man.
Of course we know why they did it. Because he is Roman Catholic who is against abortion.

[HowlinglyMind-BendingAbsurdity]

What crime would he be guilty of if he knowingly ran for president while not a natural-born citizen and participated in a conspiracy to cover that up?

[hattend]

BTTT for Amb. Keyes!

[353FMG]

“Obama is a radical communist, and I think it is becoming clear.”

If Alan Keyes is right, and I believe that he is, we must begin to understand that we are divided as a nation between communists and not-communists and that the twain shall never agree on anything.

All ‘republican’ congressmen had better realize that ‘reaching across the aisle’ will get them their hands cut off. We are no longer a nation of two political parties, joined by the love for it, but of two factions with different and opposite ideas of the direction that they want to take this country.

[The Great RJ]

I agree with Keyes because if we fail to clear out Congress in 2010 and God forbid Obama is re-elected in 2012, our Republic will be reduced to a socialist state. However, I sense a growing groundswell of popular opinion against Obama and Congress and If he is re-elected I could see an armed insurrection or coupe taking him out of office.
