“I think they need to be constantly reminded that they are slaves to the democrat party and show them the conservative path to freedom.”

You have to understand, they don’t see themselves as slaves. You can’t appeal to their intellect. As sad as this is, “feelings” are treated as facts.

Feelings inspire action. Persuasion works best when it focuses most on core emotions, not cerebral abstractions.

You don’t sell the steak, you sell the sizzle.

Agree.

And one of the most powerful feelings is in feeling betrayed. They need to know that Obama and the Democrats are taking them for granted, keeping them in poverty, and laughing behind their backs that they STILL got reelected.

And it's true, they don't watch ABC, CBS, NBC, or listen to Rush Limbaugh. They are on social media most of the day. That's where they need to be reached.
