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...

I agree, but won’t that all be a mute point if they are successful in screwing with the census (and passing amnesty)? (I’m not the most knowledgable on the census subject...take that back...not knowledgable at all on the subject)

Exactly. See my post 14.

If we start to turn things around in 2010, we can prevent 60% of this abominable bill that was just passed from being inacted and spent, and we can blunt and overturn whatever other damage this usurper and marxist accomplishes between now and then.

But we must all educate those around us now and ask them to do the same.

I see two problems with this statement.

First off, I agree that getting "people" to change their minds and vote for Republicans is a good idea but it would only work if the people who voted for Zero were in fact real people. I propose that a much larger percentage than we might suspect, actually consists of "Made Up" people. In other words vote fraud. In my opinion, it is nigh impossible to convince someone who doesn't exist to change anything. Add to that ACORN getting about $5b in the "Stimulus" bill. How many additional votes will that buy I wonder.

Second, I am not sure that there are any Conservative republicans on deck for the 2010 House and Senate races. It would/will take a "Real Conservative" with a fire in their guts to reunite the conservatives and fight the corruption. Don't see any now and if they are not out there now, they probably won't make it by 2010.

You're seeing things in a traditional sense.
The use of executive orders, presidential proclamations, memorandas, and directives are the order of the day.
Who needs Congress?
