History's most notorious Georgian-turned-Russian, the politically astute Joseph Stalin once remarked, "The people who cast the votes decide nothing. The people who count the votes decide everything."
The lesson has not been lost on the increasingly notorious Hungarian-cum-American George Soros.
A group backed by Soros is gearing up to steal the 2012 election for President Obama and congressional Democrats by installing left-wing Democrats as secretaries of state across the nation. From such posts, secretaries of state can help tilt the electoral playing field.
This is, of course, the same Soros, the same hyperpolitical left-wing philanthropist who makes no secret of his intention to destroy capitalism. In an interview with Der Spiegel last year, Soros said European-style socialism "is exactly what we need now. I am against market fundamentalism. I think this propaganda that government involvement is always bad has been very successful -- but also very harmful to our society."
The vehicle for this planned hijacking of democracy is a below-the-radar non-federal "527" group called the Secretary of State Project. The entity can accept unlimited financial contributions and doesn't have to disclose them publicly until well after the election.
It was revealed during a panel discussion at the Democratic Party's convention last year that the Democracy Alliance, a financial clearinghouse created by Soros and Progressive insurance magnate Peter B. Lewis, approved the Secretary of State Project as a grantee. The Democracy Alliance aspires to create a permanent political infrastructure of nonprofits, think tanks, media outlets, leadership schools, and activist groups -- a kind of "vast left-wing conspiracy" to compete with the conservative movement. It has brokered more than $100 million in grants to liberal nonprofits, including ACORN.

Did that really happen? If so, whoever those were who followed them, certainly changed (or stopped an attempt at changing) the course of history. Can you imagine our world if Gore had been allowed to steal that election in 2000?
Excellent post.
Yes, it did. Only in Miami, instead of Tallahassee.
Yes we need an organization run by young activitests to use the face book etc tools the will be used against the RNC. The RNC is just not in the game. So maybe the TP folks can get better organized along with the own Move On Org.
I think there are Soros types who can fund it and would if they heard a plan.
The rich folks in the world like to hear a cogent plan before they spend money.
So...... I am in for work, Whos in charge?
This is nothing new. It’s the continuation of a project that has already paid off in Minnesota. Can you say Senator Al Franken?
“Obama a Presidential Approval Index rating of -14”, a historic low, and the media doesn’t seem to find this newsworthy.
It is up to us. Follow the money. Chavez was Democratically elected. Coincedently, Chavez also campaigned on “change” and “hope”. Chavez also happens to have deep connections to Soros. http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2232312/posts
Venezuelans thought they would never be as “stupid” as the Cubans, to fall into the socialist trap. Once Chavez got is hands on the nations piggy bank, no one could get him out. He changed the constitution. Like all historical despots, Obama will try to rig elections, put up fake opposition/candidates, and manipulate news.
With your trillions of dollars in this man’s hands, you should be very concerned. May God have mercy on this country.
CommonSenseCitizens.net began in Dallas and is spreading over Texas. Other states should adopt their strategies if they haven't begun already. They organize by signing people up and splitting them up by zip code and precinct. Another is goooh.com. They are signing up ordinary citizens to run for office and they must pledge to keep their values or they are out, period. The point is to get voting blocs that can wield power in each precinct on up.
This is the exact reason we must get rid of Rino Sam Reed, Washington state’s worthless Secretary of State. I’ve lost tract of the many times he has either sat by or outright aided the Democrats in stealing an election. Regardless of how often or loud the grassroots R’s scream and holler, the R leadership always knocks themselves out to reelect this Leftist bum.

They are TOTALLY paranoid. Here is a direct quote at the top of the sos Home Page;
Can we afford another stolen election? Take the pledge stop Republicans from stealing the election.
Nice huh? What a bunch of nut cases. Here is the lineup
Who We Are: Becky Bond works for a socially progressive mobile telephone company based in San Francisco. She serves on the board of the New Organizing Institute* and ActBlue.com*.
Lola Elfman has been an organizer and trainer for The New Organizing Institute* since 2007, she served as Internet Director for Phil Angelides campaign for California Governor*, and was a consultant with M+R Strategic Services*.
Megan Hull was a Project Director for Democracy Reform at the Center for Civic Participation*. In 2004, she was a Co-Director of the coalition that investigated polling place problems and vote counting irregularities in Ohio and New Mexico.
Michael Kieschnick is a social entrepreneur based in San Francisco. He is also a board member of the League of Conservation Voters, among other progressive organizations.*
This is so important. We can't afford to take our eyes off of this. Let's keep it front and center.
If it happened in Tallahassee, too, forgive my ignorance.
We certainly need to see that this does not happen.
Feeling a little flabbergasted, I asked what he meant. He replied, "Someone from the Democratic candidate came by yesterday and left me this potted plant (the potted violets were pointed to at a conspicuous spot on a table.) What did you bring me?" I then explained that my candidate did not bring a bribe but, rather, more reasoned and responsible approach to governance.
To that quick reply, the codger asked, "So you didn't bring me anything?" I then wished the good citizen a fine day and left. In the ensuing meetings with the electorate, I began to notice potted plants, pen sets, and other brick-a-brack from the Dem candidate already in the clutches of the good citizenry.
Issues be damned, the Democratic won in a landslide.
Conservatives need a “Save Our Secretaries of State” project (SOSOS? Is that too close to Soros?).
Is there an enterprising Freeper out there who has already compiled a listing of the States’ Secretaries and their ties?
There is a reason that Soros mettled in Ukraine and Georgia. The Russians needed an excuse to whip up their population, and the Russians contracted with Soros to throw out the governments in Ukraine and Georgia (Which were not strongly loyal to Russia in the first place). When the time comes, the color revolution presidents will be replaced by hardcore Russian/Neo-Soviet loyalists (again with Soros’s help).
Remember that Soros probably was (and still is) an agent of the Russian Government.
BTTT! ;-(
