"Virtual President" BILL WHITTLE plans to "shadow" Obama.

Will it work? How can we help?

"FReeper Editorial" by RonDog

Here are some of **my** thoughts on how we can best help Bill Whittle
in his quest to restore the traditional conservative values
which made this country great.

(Please post **your** thoughts here, too.)
Andrew Breitbart:
"Politics is downstream from culture."

Bill Whittle:

"Like all cultures, we get our values and morality from our mythology – and in 20th and 21st century America,
our mythology mostly comes to us through the movies."

Antonio del Drago:

"For a fantasy story to be truly great, it needs a memorable villain...
...willing to violate accepted moral principles in order to accomplish their goals.
Earl Babbie:
"What sets a hero aside from the rest of humanity is the
willingness to assume a personal responsibility for public problems."

In our current political environment, of course, we already have a villian (Obama) --
but until now, no one on our side has been willing and/or able to be the hero.

Enter Bill Whittle, the reluctant hero.
Perhaps Bill is just at the right place at the right time, or maybe it's a case of "opportunity meets preparedness."
In any event, it appears that Bill Whittle may soon "have greatness thrust upon him," by default.
The "alternative" media have been buzzing about his "fire-breathing" defense of traditional conservative values
during a short (but powerful) address to David Horowitz's Restoration Weekend last November.
Like Ronald Reagan before him, he energizes ordinary Americans by validating their deeply held beliefs
with his full-throated, and logically consistent defense of small government and private enterprise, wealth creation,
individual liberty, American exceptionalism -- and many of our OTHER traditional conservative values.
Today's release of Bill Whittle's "Virtual Inaugural" video marks the beginning of his two-year quest to "shadow" President Obama --
to go where Obama goes (figuratively) -- and do what Obama does (virtually).


Bill Whittle intends to show the world how a CONSERVATIVE "virtual" President would respond to the same current events --
and answer the same kind of questions from the media -- as the current LEFTIST non-"virtual" President does.
His goal is to show the American people what they **could have** had, if they had elected a better President LAST time --
and to show the current "leaders" in our party how to effectively communicate our superior values NEXT time, if any will listen.
And if our current "leaders" will NOT listen, Bill may just have to do THEIR job for them, too. ;)

So, what do **you** think about Bill's plans?

Thanks for the Ping!

Been listening to Bill...what a great way to start the day - and what a harbinger of HOPE.

Can Republicans get back to speaking in this manner? How REFRESHING That would be! :)

We (semi)seriously need to clone this guy. At a time when we lament the dearth of intelligent voices speaking out for sane solutions to our problems it is a sheep pleasure to listen to him. We need as many people who can speak as articulately and passionately as we can get and there aren’t many who do so better than Bill.

Bill Whittle for something or another!

Too bad the president we want doesn’t exist.

God needs to raise up another Reagan.

One of the best ‘communicators’ out there ...... what the heck is wrong with the Republicans that they can’t do the same?

Answering my own question here ..... when you are not conservative, it’s hard to make the case for a conservative ‘path’ for the country to start working on reversing this mess we’re in. If conservatives don’t go third party, there needs to be more than a major Repub housecleaning i.e. the house needs to be gutted & new wiring/plumbing, drywall, etc. put in, not just broomswept to get the dust bunnies out.

"Virtual" is a poor choice of words, because we already have a V-POTUS in the Vice President. Should have been "SPOTUS" (especially if he's "Shadowing" the thug-in-charge).

Oh well.

Can Bill be drafted to be the Republicant candidate? If so, I would have to change their nickname.

He certainly understands that the problem is the lack of VIRTUE! Refreshing to hear someone who GETS IT...

Bill Whittle did a great job!

I hope he keeps doing this and this sort of presentation gets more widespread attention. We need to win back the culture.

Darn, I missed the campaign. Are there any virtual bumper stickers, virtual posters, or virtual t-shirts left over?
