I'll just comment on one small part of your rather large questions.

1. Have a Plan A in order to prevent voter fraud from being used to get Obama reelected.

This may be the first election in which we see widespread use of fraud in computerized voting.

Democrats should have little trouble accomplishing this:

This will be hard to prevent and hard to detect if it is done carefully. Republicans should try to put themselves in positions of responsibility over the voting machines and networks, and should try to restrict physical access to the machines/networks after voting hours. If a machine breaks, replace it, don't get it repaired. Be suspicious of anyone (aside from voters) who can physically touch a voting machine or who can connect to it by a network.

Eventually, America will have a widely publicized computer voting scandal, and we will drop the computers and return to relatively hack-proof hand marked paper ballots. Until that happens, it is important to raise awareness of the risks we are running with our current computerized voting systems.

If there is a second Obama term, I don't think we can count on what will become the State Run Media to report anything other than what is officially approved. We will have to rely on offshore servers and broadcasts. Even the existing Internet will be subject to monitoring and control, much like China IMO.
