"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?

He should pick 10-conservative politicians and teach them how to give a speech.

Bump for an excellent and substantive virtual inaugural address by the brilliant Bill Whittle.

Thank you for all your hard work on the post and ping. I’m looking forward to hearing all about Virtual President Whittle’s first administration.

I have been following Bill Whittle for about a decade now and suggest that his compilation of essays published
in November 2004 titled “Silent America: Essays from a Democracy at War” is well worth the read, and,
our virtual President is certainly worth watching today, and in the future.
Who knows, a real Whittle - Palin ticket ? It's got my vote, you betcha.

BTW, Mr. RonDog, please put me on your Bill Whittle - Virtual President Ping list. Thank you.

Thanks for adding me to the ping list, Mr. Dog!

I’ve been watching Bill Whittle for a while. He’s a great evangelist of the basics.

Excellent. Thanks for the ping.

Keep up the virtual appearances, Bill. If you can save just one low-information voter...
