KUDOS TO CANDIDATES IN ST CHARLES COUNTY
by Anita Foelsch (MOPP St Charles County Coordinator) I donrsquot know if it is a record but it sure feels like one 59 NEW people have filed for township chairmenwomen positions in St Charles County and 21 incumbents for a total of 80 people Only 4 Townships will have no competition This is really great because the Central Committee will have a real chance to reflect the wishes of itrsquos constituents For the first time many townships will actually show up on the ballot alerting many voters that these positions actually exist I give a big bravo to all of these Candidates
ABOUT SCSSJR 51 by Frieda Keough
SCSSJR 51 - This constitutional amendment if approved by the voters would modify the composition of the Appellate Judicial Commission and the selection process for judges to the Supreme Court and the Court of Appeals This act increases the number of individuals that the Appellate Judicial Commission nominates for vacancies in the Supreme Court or Court of Appeals from three to four Currently the Appellate Judicial Commission consists of seven members as follows one Supreme Court judge a member of the bar from each appellate district elected by members of the bar in that district and a non-bar member citizen from each appellate district appointed by the Governor This act replaces the judge member of the commission with an additional member appointed by the Governor Members appointed by the Governor no longer must be non-bar members The Governor will appoint one member from each appellate district and one from the state at large The appointed members will serve terms of four years Their terms will be staggered so that a Governor will appoint two when taking office and two during the middle of his or her term The Supreme Court will appoint a former Supreme Court or Court of Appeals judge to serve as a nonvoting member of the commission The former judge cannot have been removed for cause or failed to be retained in a retention election The changes to the Appellate Judicial Commission will take effect on January 15 2013 If this is approved by the voters the governor will be accountable for the judges appointed not a faceless group of lawyers

Who Counts in 2012 A Message from True the Vote
How are our votes really counted And who really counts them Recently reports have surfaced about the purchase of SOE a Tampa FL based vote tabulation company by SCYTL an international vote tabulation company based in Barcelona Spain
So Now what We at True the Vote believe that the best safeguard against any potential problems in our elections is an active organized educated citizenry who are willing to take personal responsibility stand in whatever gaps in our electoral system exist and work to improve them Now is not the time for panic Lets get some answers figure out whats going on then spread the word We are asking Congress and the FEC to address what if any role they had in approving the SCYTLSOE purchase and what the impact will be if any to online military vote processing
Heres how you can help
1 Contact your Secretary of State and ask them to provide a statement on how votes are tabulated and reported in your state and if SCYTLSOE is involved at any point in the process You can contact your Secretary of State here Please email us the responses you receive we will post them at wwwtruethevoteorg You can email us here
Here are the Secretary of State responses received thus far TEXAS ARIZONA ALASKA MISSOURI ALABAMA OHIO WASHINGTON 2 Volunteer to help True the Vote Commit to get involved to volunteer at the polls to record the final vote tallies at the polls where you work to track those tallies make sure they are being accurately reported and be prepared to take meaningful and swift action if breaches are found to exist We wont change the electoral process until we are willing to roll up our sleeves and take responsibility for it Sustained responsibility
3 Never forget we are not victims Victims have no options We do Though stories like this will shake us up we must remain resolved to keep level heads acknowledge real problems when they exist work towards solutions and not get caught up in rumor or manufactured hype The days ahead will test the mettle of us all But see victory not defeat
The Leftrsquos National Vote Fraud Strategy Exposed Posted By James Simpson On May 7 2012
reprinted from httpwwwaimorgspecial-reportthe-lefts-national-vote-fraud-strategy-exposedprint
This report reveals the Leftrsquos vote fraud strategy for the 2012 elections Like a KGB operation it is thorough multi-faceted and redundant It has overt and covert illegal and legal elements the
latter of which are designed at least in part to facilitate illegal activities later It is a deliberate premeditated comprehensive plan to win the 2012 presidential election at all costs and is in
keeping with the organizational methods associations and ethics of the Community-Organizer-in-Chief Barack Obama
The Left seeks fundamental structural change to our entire form of government In keeping with their amoral means-justifies-ends philosophy they will register any voters dead or alive legal
or illegal who will then vote as many times as possible in order to establish a ldquopermanent progressive majority [1]rdquo As two New York Democrats recently caught in a vote fraud scandal told [2]police ldquovoter fraud is an accepted way of winning electionshelliprdquo
Low income individuals are the perfect dupes for this strategy An expanding welfare state makes them increasingly dependent on government benefits a development that guarantees their vote for liberal-left candidates At the same time people with marginal attachment to society may be less inclined to report illegal activity at the pollsmdashor actually participate The ldquovictimrdquo
narrative promoted in popular culture and press may even encourage such behavior Meanwhile a growing tax burden and public debt suck private enterprise drymdashpushing ever more people
onto the dole
Politicians of both parties are not above engaging in vote fraud But this kind of corruption is relegated to individual campaigns or areas where corrupt political establishments have been able to
develop unchallenged It is not a systematic component of overall national strategy as it is with the Left
This strategy has been under development for decades They have constructed an entire industry devoted to this task and pursue a multifaceted strategy to accomplish it
1 Swamp election officials with overwhelming numbers of registrations at the last possible minute a huge proportion of which are deliberately fraudulent in order to create systematic chaos This accomplishes numerous goals
Makes verification of registrations difficult given the small size and limited budgets of state and local election offices
Provides multiple opportunities for vote fraud
Throws the entire voting process into question providing pretext for lawsuits where concessions may be obtained from election officials
When election officials challenge registrations they are accused of ldquovoter suppressionrdquo This in turn serves complementary goals
o Charge of ldquovoter suppressionrdquo reinforces the Leftrsquos narrative about America as an oppressive ldquoracistrdquo country
o Publicity and lawsuits intimidate election officials who settle on terms favorable to the Left
2 Activists sue state authorities for ldquovoter suppressionrdquo creating further chaos and pressuring them to become de facto taxpayer-funded voter registration operations
3 Eric Holderrsquos Justice Department tacitly supports voter intimidation tactics sues states and backs private lawsuits and resists reform as ldquovoter suppressionrdquo
4 Leftist echo chamber discredits allegations of vote fraud supports ldquosuppressionrdquo theme and promotes advantageous legislation
The ultimate goal is a systematized taxpayer-funded voting machinery that will guarantee maximum participation from the Leftrsquos voting demographic while undermining the ability to manage
elections and prevent fraud

The Leftrsquos National Vote Fraud Strategy Exposed (cont)
Key to understanding the Leftrsquos vote-fraud strategy is the community organizing group ACORN [3] ACORN has become synonymous with corruption complicity [4] in the subprime mortgage crisis [4] and especially vote fraud [5]
ACORN and its voter registration arm Project Vote [6] hire marginal and unskilled workers at very low rates and use incentive bonuses or quotas to encourage them to collect as many voter
registrations as possible [7] The resulting flood of registrations are fraught with duplicates errors and omissions and a large number are overtly fraudulent including names like ldquoDonald Duckrdquo ldquoMickey Mouserdquo ldquoTony Romordquo of the Dallas Cowboys [8] etc [9][2] [10] According to Matthew Vadum [11] the senior editor at Capital Research Center a total of 400000 bogus ACORN
registrations were thrown out in 2008 alone
ACORN was supposedly disbanded in 2010 but resurrected itself under a slew of new names Former ACORN President Bertha Lewis bragged [12] that they created ldquohellip18 bulletproof community-
organizing Frankensteinshelliprdquo These are reproduced in the table below Most of these groups occupy former ACORN offices many with the same staff
ACORN is directly connected to Obama and the Democratic Party Counsel to The Advance Group a strategic planning company is Michael Gaspard [13] Patrick Gaspardrsquos [14] brother Patrick is currently the DNCrsquos executive director and President Obamarsquos former political director He has worked for ACORN the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) and the Working Families

A MESSAGE FROMhellip
NEWS FROM THE TRENCHES ndash FLORIDA
Champion Tom Coutre and his wife helped set up 25 Voter Registration Drives in 25 different churches in Sumter Marion and Lake Counties prior to Floridas Presidential Primary (PPP) With the help of volunteers from the
churches they distributed about 2000 voter registration forms
Tom reported that the churches with the highest rate of success did these two things
1 The Pastors played the Champion the Vote video at their services and according to Tom people were
shocked by the statistics in the video
2 The Pastors said something like this from the pulpitIf you are not registered to vote or fail to vote you
are not doing your duty as a Christian or as an American citizen They then directed the congregation to pick up a voter registration form and a voter guide after the service
Tom said that in the end registering new voters may not have been the most important result of the effort Tom
believes that the real importance of the drives was that they raised awareness of the power of the primary He
reported that Sumter County Florida had the highest percentage turnout for the PPP While he does not attribute
this directly to the voter registration efforts the Supervisor of Elections said that during the drives they
experienced an unusual number of new voter registrations in which voters changed their party affiliation Let us know what youre doing to champion the vote in your community and beyond
Blessings

Making a Difference One by One Multiplied Across the Nation

Analysis Conservatives used tactics of the left in Wisconsin win
Nick CareyReuters
657 pm CDT June 6 2012
MADISON Wisconsin (Reuters) - Activists with the conservative Tea Party movement say they owe a lot to their schooling in left-wing
community organizing tactics for the historic Republican victory over the Democrats and their union allies in the Wisconsin recall election
While the Democrats said huge campaign spending by conservatives supporters of Republican Scott Walker allowed him on Tuesday to
become the first governor in US history to survive a recall election the Republicans point to their grassroots get-out-the-vote work as more
important
Advertising can only do so much said Ned Ryun head of the national conservative group American Majority whose sister group American
Majority Action worked closely with Wisconsin activists But talking to someone face to face is a game changer
Combine that personal contact with energizing a mass movement of door knockers and the latest phone software technology to track voters and
you have many of the ingredients for the victory they say
The conservative activists have literally taken a page out of a left-wing radicals guide to organizing - as many have read the late Saul Alinskys
Rules for Radicals
Born in 1909 in Chicago Alinsky - who died in 1972 - began his organizing career in the citys poor Back of the Yards district and is widely
considered the founder of modern community organizing
There was no manual for organizing on the right so we adapted it to the conservative cause said Brown of We the People of the Republic a
Tea Party group based in Madison Wisconsin The left has been good at it for 100 years so what better place to start
Labor unions and liberal activists forced the recall election against Walker because of his successful effort last year to curb the collective
bargaining powers of public sector workers in the Midwestern US state famous for its beer cheese and Harley-Davidsonmotorcycles
The unions with a reputation for excelling at grass-roots organizing not only failed to oust Walker - but he beat his Democratic challenger
Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett by an even bigger margin than his 2010 gubernatorial victory
Out-of-state conservatives flooded Wisconsin with tens of millions of dollars in campaign cash in an election seen as a barometer of the
American political mood ahead of the November 6 presidential election Walker outspend Barrett by more than 7-to-1
Leading US conservative donors made donations to boost Walker
Luke Hilgemann Wisconsin state director of Americans for Prosperity which is backed by conservative billionaire brothers David
and Charles Koch said the group coordinated a network of some 100000 local activists Most of their efforts centered on 17 key counties
Money alone doesnt win elections In the three weeks before the election Walker benefited from a disciplined get-out-the-vote drive mounted
by people associated with the Tea Party movement which reviles President Barack Obama Wisconsin could be a key battleground state in the
November 6 election as Obama seeks re-election against Republican Mitt Romney
A lot of the campaign cash bankrolled a wave of pro-Walker advertising Exit polls taken on Tuesday however indicated the ads may not have
been a decisive factor nearly 90 percent of voters say they chose their candidate before the ad barrage
Not only is the Tea Party alive and kicking those guys ran a great get-out-the-vote campaign said Ford OConnell a Republican strategist and
chairman of the CivicForum PAC political group They have given away the secret recipe for what could win the election for Mitt Romney
This is a paradigm shift added Matt Kibbe president of FreedomWorks a conservative group chaired by former Republican House of
Representatives Majority leader Dick Armey that provides training and resources to Tea Party activists If the grassroots embrace a cause
they make all the difference

Analysis Conservatives used tactics of the left in Wisconsin win (cont)
UNION FAULTS
Analysts said Democrats and unions made fundamental mistakes in Wisconsin Instead of uniting behind one candidate to challenge Walker
Democrats waged a divisive primary and most unions did not back the eventual winner Tom Barrett who has had his own disputes with unions
as mayor of Milwaukee
The Democrats lost valuable time and money while Walker was traveling the country collecting millions of dollars to back his election effort
They also may have miscalculated in choosing Barrett who previously had lost to Walker in 2010
If they are going to recall a governor it hardly makes sense to try to challenge him with a candidate who lost against him last time said Marick
Masters a professor of business and director of labor studies at Wayne State University in Detroit
On Wednesday top labor leaders such as AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka and Teamsters General President Jim Hoffa were not
acknowledging any mistakes publicly and dismissed the idea that events in Wisconsin had a broad implications for the labor movements future
Walker needed every last dime and every last divisive TV ad to maintain a weakened hold on his office Trumka said
Success in Wisconsin this year came with the aid of technology such as a new get-out-the-vote app called Gravity that American Majority Action
provided free to Tea Party activists as conservatives targeted like-minded voters
Prior to the election Tea Party activists reported encountering voters who backed Walker but would be out of state on the day of the election So
activists helped them fill out absentee ballots
We would have lost those votes if we hadnt showed up said Matt Batzel state director of American Majority Action Thats what this is all
about
Note The above article documents how the grassroots played an integral role in the Wisconsin recall A new ldquoget out the voterdquo app called ldquoGravityrdquohellipand groups like American Majority and True the Vote were all part of a unified effort with many other grassroots organizations both local and national to help achieve victory The sophistication of these programs coupled with the manpower and passion of the grassroots movement was a ldquowinningrdquo combination These same tools and strategies will be showcased at our MOPP ldquoWinning in Novemberrdquo seminar that will take place on July 14 2012 We hope you make plans to attend and join us to learn how you can utilize these tools for victory in November

November Is a Plebiscite On the American Revolution
REPRINTED FROM Tuesday May 01 2012
Election Day 2012 will not be a presidential election It will be a plebiscite
Americans will not only be voting for a president (and a House and a third of the Senate) They will be participating in a plebiscite on the definition of America If Americans re-elect the Democrat Barack Obama they will have announced that America should be like Western European countries -- governed by left-wing values Americans will have decided that Americas value system -- Liberty In God We Trust E Pluribus Unum -- should be replaced The election in November is therefore a plebiscite on the American Revolution The usual description of presidential elections -- the most important in our lifetime -- is true this time In fact it may be the most important election since the Civil War and possibly since Americas founding
The left knows what is at stake And the most left-wing president in American history knows what is at stake Candidate Obama announced shortly before the 2008 election We are five days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America He described the lefts aim perfectly to fundamentally transform America It seeks to replace Liberty In God We Trust and E Pluribus Unum That is what fundamentally transform means In fact those words are proof that American values and leftist values are fundamentally opposed to one another
The right on the other hand seeks to maintain Americas values Conservatives want to improve America but as its name implies conservatism seeks to conserve not transform Liberty means first and foremost limited government -- because bigger government means less individual liberty In God We Trust means that America must be rooted in Creator-based values There are no inalienable rights if no rights derive from God And E Pluribus Unum means the assumption of an American identity by all citizens regardless of their racial ethnic or national background
The left seeks to replace Liberty with Equality Material inequality is the great evil and if individual liberty needs to be sacrificed to attain equality so be it Creator-based values are to be replaced by government-based values God-fearing is to be replaced by State-fearing God must be removed from schools and wherever else the left can succeed in doing so E Pluribus Unum is to be replaced by multiculturalism For leftism the very words American identity conjure up chauvinism if not fascism
For these reasons this election is not just a choice between a Democrat and a Republican It is between Americanism and leftism This does not mean that left-wing Americans are un-American or unpatriotic -- or that they do not love their country The conflict between Americanism and leftism is between ideas not between decent and indecent people But it is an unfortunate fact of life that decent people can believe in bad ideas If this were not so few of the greatest evils would ever have occurred
If this election is indeed a plebiscite on America Mitt Romney cannot campaign solely or even primarily on the state of the economy First what if the economy even slightly improves What happens then to Governor Romneys appeal Moreover relying for ones success on the suffering of ones fellow Americans is morally as well as politically perilous Second Americans want to vote for more than an economic Mr Fix-It as desirable as such a person is
So too Mr Romney should not overly personalize his campaign He is running against Obama but Barack Obama is not the biggest issue The lefts desire to transform America is the biggest issue Barack Obama is to be opposed because he is a man of the left Mitt Romney and the entire Republican Party need to describe this election as the plebiscite on America that it is The most urgent task in American life is to make clear and then repeat as often as possible leftist values and American values are in conflict
Instead of asking Are you better off than you were three years ago Every Republican needs to ask every day Do you want to fundamentally transform America If they do Barack Obama is their man If they dont Mitt Romney is
NOTE The Missouri Caucuses are completed A lot of people got involved this year and were very passionate about the various
candidates Not everybody is happy One even hears that voting for the supposed nominee Mitt Romney is no different than Barack Obama So why bother to vote We should all remember that the next President will probably be in a position to nominate up to four Supreme Court justices So keep this in mind when you make your decisions about who to support Current age of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg - 79 years Stephen Breyer - 73 years
Anthony Kennedy - 75 years Antonin Scalia - 76 tears We cannot afford to have a President Obama replace any Supreme Court Justices but especially not a Antonin Scalia Especially if we do not have at least 41 Senators that would be willing to stand up and vote no for any Supreme Court nominee that does not have true constitutional credentials Supposedly Mitt Romney has appointed a group of individuals to review possible candidates for the Supreme Court This is encouraging especially since the man heading this group is Robert Borck one of the best constitutional jurists this country has ever produced

Obamas Second Term Transformation Plans By Steve McCann
The 2012 election has often been described as the most pivotal since 1860 This statement is not hyperbole If Barack Obama is re-elected the
United States will never be the same nor will it be able to re-capture its once lofty status as the most dominant nation in the history of mankind The overwhelming majority of Americans do not understand that Obamas first term was dedicated to putting in place executive power to enable him
and the administration to fulfill the campaign promise of transforming America in his second term regardless of which political party controls
Congress That is why his re-election team is virtually ignoring the plight of incumbent or prospective Democratic Party office holders
The most significant accomplishment of Obamas first term is to make Congress irrelevant Under the myopic and blindly loyal leadership of Harry
Reid and Nancy Pelosi the Democrats have succeeded in creating an imperial and in a second term a potential dictatorial presidency
During the first two years of the Obama administration when the Democrats overwhelming controlled both Houses of Congress and the media was in
an Obama worshipping stupor a myriad of laws were passed and actions taken which transferred virtually unlimited power to the executive branch The birth of multi-thousand page laws was not an aberration This tactic was adopted so the bureaucracy controlled by Obama appointees would
have sole discretion in interpreting vaguely written laws and enforcing thousands of pages of regulations they and not Congress would subsequently
write
For example in the 2700 pages of ObamaCare there are more than 2500 references to the Secretary of Health and Human Services There are more
than 700 instances when he or she is instructed that they shall do something and more than 200 times when they may take at their sole discretion
some form of regulatory action On 139 occasions the law mentions that the Secretary determines In essence one person appointed by and
reporting to the president will be in charge of the health care of 310 million Americans once ObamaCare is fully operational in 2014
The same is true in the 2319 pages of the Dodd-Frank Financial Reform Act which confers nearly unlimited power on various agencies to control by
fiat the nations financial banking and investment sectors The bill also creates new agencies such as the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau not
subject to any oversight by Congress This overall process was repeated numerous times with other legislation all with the intent of granting
unfettered power to the executive branch controlled Barack Obama and his radical associates
Additionally the Obama administration has through its unilaterally determined rule making and regulatory powers created laws out of whole cloth
The Environmental Protection Agency on a near daily basis issues new regulations clearly out of their purview in order to modify and change
environmental laws previously passed and to impose a radical green agenda never approved by Congress The same is true of the Energy and Interior
Departments among many others
None of these extra-constitutional actions have been challenged by Congress The left in America knows this usurpation of power is nearly
impossible to reverse unless stopped in its early stages
It is clearly the mindset of this administration and its appointees that Congress is merely a nuisance and can be ignored after they were able to take
full advantage of the useful idiots in the Democrat controlled House and Senate in 2009-2010 and the Democrat Senate in the current Congress Additionally Barack Obama knows after his re-election a Republican controlled House and Senate will not be able to enact any legislation to roll
back the power previously granted to the Executive Branch or usurped by them His veto will not be overridden as there will always be at least 145
Democratic members of the House or 34 in the Senate in agreement with or intimidated by an administration more than willing to use Chicago style
political tactics
The stalemate between the Executive and Legislative Branches will inure to the benefit of Barack Obama and his fellow leftists The most significant power Congress has is the control of the purse-strings as all spending must be approved by them However once re-elected
Barack Obama as confirmed by his willingness to do or say anything and his unscrupulous re-election tactics would not only threaten government
shutdowns but would deliberately withhold payments to those dependent on government support as a means of intimidating and forcing a Republican
controlled Congress to surrender to his demands thus neutering their ability to control the administration through spending constraints Further this administration has shown contempt for the courts by ignoring various court orders eg the Gulf of Mexico oil drilling moratorium as
well as stonewalling subpoenas and requests issued by Congress The Eric Holder Justice Department has become the epitome of corruption as part
of the most dishonest and deceitful administration in American history In a second term the arrogance of Barack Obama and his minions will
become more blatant as he will not have to be concerned with re-election
Who will be there to enforce the rule of law a Supreme Court ruling or the Constitution No one Barack Obama and his fellow-travelers will be
unchallenged as they run roughshod over the American people
Many Republicans and conservatives dissatisfied with the prospect of Mitt Romney as the nominee for president are instead focused on re-taking the
House and Senate That goal while worthy and necessary is meaningless unless Barack Obama is defeated The nation is not dealing with a person
of character and integrity but someone of single-minded purpose and overwhelming narcissism Judging by his actions words and deeds during his
first term he does not intend to work with Congress either Republican or Democrat in his second term but rather to force his radical agenda on the
American people through the power he has usurped or been granted
The governmental structure of the United States was set up by the founders in the hope that over the years only those people of high moral character
and integrity would assume the reins of power However knowing that was not always possible they dispersed power over three distinct and
independent branches as a check on each other
14
Obamas Second Term Transformation Plans (cont)
What they could not imagine is the surrender and abdication of its constitutional duty by the preeminent governmental branch the Congress to a
chief executive devoid of any character or integrity coupled with a judiciary essentially powerless to enforce the law when the chief executive ignores
them
Conservatives Libertarians the Republican Party and Mitt Romney must come to grips with this moment in time and their historical role in denying
Barack Obama and his minions their ultimate goal All resources must be directed at that end-game and not merely controlling Congress and the
various committee chairmanships

Winning the Youth Vote
Posted by Mindy Reifer 12pc on May 03 2012 middot Flag
After clearly indicating their strategic ploys to secure the women vote this election cycle Democrats are now sharpening their rhetoric aimed at reclaiming the youth vote President Obama directed his April campaigning towards college students focusing on college-loan rates and other university-related political issues
Since the 2008 election results were first analyzed the prominence of the youth vote has weighed heavily on both Democratic and Republican candidatesrsquo campaign decisions The popular myth circulating is that for Obamarsquos 2008 win the youth vote turned out in remarkably unprecedented numbers And all Obama has to do is continue this pattern to secure his
electoral victory
But that might be easier said than done this time around
First Obama did not in fact grow the youth vote very much and certainly not in unprecedented numbers What Obama actually did accomplish in 2008 was to turn the youth vote largely
away from Republicans securing a majority of votes from voters aged 18-29 The actual growth of the youth vote though was just 1
Posting on the Washington Postrsquos website on April 24 Chris Cillizza and Aaron Blakeat demonstrate that while political organizations claimed that Obamarsquos election was in part due to a more than 22 million youth voter turnout increase ldquoyoung voters comprised 18 percent of the electorate in 2008 a one-point improvement from their share of the electorate in 2004 2000
and 1996 but nowhere near the heights they reached in the 1980srdquo
Misrepresentation of Obamarsquos success at the polls led to many dishonest facts being promulgated to bolster the supposed turnout-increasing abilities of our president Even before the
finally tally in 2008 Heather Smith of Rock the Vote (as quoted by Melissa Dahl on MSNBCcom) said ldquoWe expected record turnout and that is what wersquore seeing right nowrdquo
Hindsight proved that it was not at all a record turnout certainly not when the 1980 and 1984 Reagan Revolution is considered but it was a record margin in favor of the Democratic nominee And this youth vote clobbering likely tilted the election in Obamarsquos favor Dahl says that ldquoyoung voters preferred Obama over John McCain by 68 percent to 30 percent mdash the
highest share of the youth vote obtained by any candidate since exit polls began reporting results by age in 1976 according to CIRCLE a non-partisan organizationrdquo
It is not only Obama and Democrats who are going after the youth vote At the same time that Obama was appealing to his prime target Romney was giving stump speeches about
student loans and college costs (In pure campaign-mode Obama demanded that Congress keep student loan rates low something that Republicans in Congress have also supported)
It remains to be seen if Obama will once again secure the youth vote or by what margin
This time around Republicans have a stronger platform to run on Obamarsquos record Statistics released by the Republican Study Committee on April 30 show that more than half of recent
college graduates are unemployed or underemployed In fact 85 of college graduates will be moving back home with their parents hardly the ideal goal of a college grad
Many of the youngest of 2008rsquos voters have now graduated college and are finding themselves enveloped in student debt and facing the harsh realities of the Obama recession And of
course the older end of the youth vote have now matured somewhat witnessing first-hand the destruction Obamarsquos policies have wrought on our economy and foreign image
And it is up to this very demographic to perhaps effect the biggest change in the election outcome this November But unfortunately youth voters are still favoring Obama over Romney by a strong margin strong enough to win him reelection An April 2012 Washington Post-ABC survey showed Obama leading Romney by 21 points among 18-29-year olds Romney is
correct in assuming he needs to appeal to the youth vote not just to grow the turnout but more importantly to urge deflections over to the Republicans side in order to secure the election
Romney needs to focus on the economy not just student loan rates He needs to remind young voters that they will need jobs to pay back their loans no matter how low interest rates remain And moving back home with Mom and Dad is no way to spend onersquos first year as a college graduate America needs to once again be a nation of unique unprecedented
economy opportunity and a 2012 ldquoReaganrdquo revolution is necessary to put the US back on track to prosperity

The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
December 9 2011
By Sara Noble
ldquoThe elective franchise if guarded as the ark of our safety will peaceably dissipate all combinations to subvert a Constitution dictated by the
wisdom and resting on the will of the peoplerdquo ~ Thomas Jefferson
While Americans are focused on the election the Progressive wing of the Democratic Party funded by two eccentric businessmen and a George Soros son are stealthily orchestrating the decimation of the voting process and states rights through the National Popular Vote Compact (NPV)
The NPV is a popular sound bite that will do the opposite of what it is portrayed to do ndash make each Americanrsquos vote count It does not do that
because it keeps the electoral college but misuses it What it actually does is create a ldquoforced mergerrdquo between heavily populated states and less populated states
Currently moving at a rapid pace the NPV is a state-by-state initiative that will force states to allocate their electoral votes to the winner of
the national popular vote rather than the winner of the popular vote in their state
NPV will greatly reduce the power of most states in that the highly populated states will be able to gain the electoral votes and in fact 11 states could decide the Presidential election
California Texas New York Florida Illinois Pennsylvania Ohio Michigan Georgia North Carolina and New Jersey have 57 of the votes cast
in 2008 and together they have 270 electoral votes the amount necessary to win the election Do you want these states to decide who is President
while other states have no say
Is this what the Founding Fathers wanted An election based on demographics and geographics
Why is the current structure of the electoral college so important Our Founding Fathers believed that the state by state disbursed system
maintained the sovereignty of the states and disallowed Federalism The containment of ldquomischiefrdquo or voter fraud of the ACORN type is contained within states instead of being spread nationally The electoral college provides balance and firewalls against voter fraud
Do you believe all states should be purple and not red or blue Then you do NOT want the NPV Supporters of the NPV claim it will favor
Republicans in that there are more underutilized Republican votes than Democratic votes which I doubt since the heavily populated states are predominantly liberal Whether this is true or not does not matter
17
The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
(cont)
We should not favor one side or the other in the United States of America
The initiative has been approved by half the states necessary to pass it The states that have approved it equal 70 electoral votes and only 138 are needed for it to pass It is well on its way to becoming law
NPV circumvents the Constitution by allowing individual states to change the Constitution without an amendment However the compact clause of
the Constitution does not allow any state to ldquoenter into any Agreement or Compact with another Staterdquo Liberal states like California could join with
Illinois New York and another 8 other liberal states forming a super bloc that would give all their electoral votes to the winner forming the bloc that could take the election
Article V specifically states that the Constitution must be amended ldquono State without its Consent shall be deprived of its equal Suffrage in the Senaterdquo The NPV as structured will immediately take effect without an amendment and it will probably be in time for the 2012 election
NPV has bipartisan support and the opposition should be bipartisan as well It is not a partisan issue it is about states rights and the power of each individual guaranteed by the electoral college
NPV will have many unwanted side effects The states that decide the election will probably be the states that receive the federal dollars because
their votes count They will likely be the only states that candidates will visit
Another problematic side effect reared its ugly head in my own Congressional district on Long Island Our congressman Tim Bishop received most
of his funding from New York City and other areas outside Long Island including as far away as California NPV will encourage the influx of money from outside the key 11 states It will be lobbying on steroids
Then there is the nationalization of voter fraud Some states require proof of citizenship photo IDrsquos no IDrsquos but NPV will eliminate that choice and the containment of fraud that states provide
I personally experienced absentee voter fraud For example one woman voted from Canada and used the address of a local middle school The courts
in NY let these votes stand Even the dead people we found were counted because you only have a few days to prove they are dead and courts want a
death certificate which is hard to get on hundreds of people in a matter of days So in NY dead people vote I happen to know of a number of illegal
aliens who voted as well
In Kansas the Democratic primary of Rizzo vs Royster shows the seriousness of voter fraud A group in support of Rizzo brought in 50 Somali nationals to vote Rizzo won by one vote
ACORN often mobilizes aliens to vote
In Mississippi 23 counties had more people registered to vote than were alive
Examples are endless though some would have us believe fraud is not a widespread problem
There is the costly and lengthy litigation which will ensue if NPV passes Examples are -
What happens constitutionally if a state in the NPV doesnrsquot like the candidate they are forced to give their electoral votes to and pulls out of the
compact though they are not free to do so
NPV does not meet equal protection under the 14th amendment for the states who do not sign on to the NPV
The compact clause Article I suggests it needs congressional approval
Article II delegates power to the states which the NPV overrides
Administratively a non-qualified person not even on the ballot could win it will force states with solid voting requirements to go with those who
allow rampant fraud if they have higher population density the individuality of states that includes early voter registration felons voting voting by mail et cetera will dissolve into the requirements of the heavily populated states Close elections will cause inevitable and lengthy delays
There is even a question of whether some states will be able to vote under the compact
18
The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
(cont)
Litigation will take a long time and could end up leaving the incumbent President in place for months or years
NPV will -
Federalize the vote
Destroy state sovereignty in the Presidential election
Circumvent the Constitution
Disenfranchise voters by giving 11 states the power to decide the election
It will ignite endless litigation
Reduce voting to the lowest common denominator
Give a handful of states supremacy
NPV is a ldquoone size fits allrdquo and it forces many states to abandon the voting procedures and policies that make them unique It focuses on the end
results and sacrifices process

NOTE One of our very own Republican Missouri Legislators introduced a bill in the last legislative session in favor of the National Popular Vote and to eliminate the Electoral College Dwight Scharnhorst (93rd District before re-districting) explained that he did not know that what this bill was about and that is why he introduced it Unfortunately MrScharnhorst is now running unopposed in the newly re-districted 88th District

GETTING INVOLVED IN YOUR PRECINCT
WHY Because we believe ldquoall politics is localrdquo
Become involved at the local level to restore conservative values and principles that will then ldquotrickle UPrdquo to all levels of government
MOPP is not the first to utilize this strategy ndash Phyllis Schlafly implemented the ldquoprecinct strategyrdquo to defeat the ERA 30+ years ago
We believe that Missouri needed to join the ranks of other states with similar efforts including Texas Florida Pennsylvania Nevada and
Utah
We want to encourage Missourians across the State to work in their own communities and counties to make a differencehellip
WHAT MOPPrsquos 4 pronged strategy
1 Key element (hence the name Missouri Precinct Project) Identify the 40-50 of the unfilled precincttownship
committee positions in their county that go unfilled (many of our members have filed to fill these positions across the
state ndash ie St Louis County stat 35 new)
2 Get out the Conservative vote ndash
a MOPP encourages its members to utilize our database (we are in the final stage of determining which program we
will be using) to canvass their neighborhood to identify and register conservative voters educate voters on issues
and candidates and get them to the polls on election day
b MOPP also partners with ldquoChampion The Votehellipencouraging our volunteers to become Champions in the
Champion the Vote program to register unregistered Christian voters (in Missouri in 2008 there was only a
4000 difference between the 2 presidential candidateshellipthatrsquos a pretty close margin but yet there are
approximately 150000 unregistered Christians in the State)
Go here to become a ldquoChampionrdquo httpchampionthevotecomheadquartersmissouri
3 Encourage becoming a poll worker to help prevent voter fraud
4 Build and maintain a database in order to form a more effective coalition united voice for Conservatives across the State

IN SUMMARY If we are ever to get control of our government and change the type of people we get into office and the control that big-
money currently brings we must get directly and actively involved at the grassroots level in the two-party system
It is not going to be easy and it is not going to change overnight But without this approach we are simply reshuffling the
chairs on the deck of the Titanic Do we just want the furniture to look better before we crash into the iceberg or do we
want to change the shiprsquos course to prevent it from sinking
Mission Statement
Restore Constitutional principles and conservative values by engaging conservatives in grassroots politics

KUDOS TO CANDIDATES IN ST CHARLES COUNTY
by Anita Foelsch (MOPP St Charles County Coordinator) I donrsquot know if it is a record but it sure feels like one 59 NEW people have filed for township chairmenwomen positions in St Charles County and 21 incumbents for a total of 80 people Only 4 Townships will have no competition This is really great because the Central Committee will have a real chance to reflect the wishes of itrsquos constituents For the first time many townships will actually show up on the ballot alerting many voters that these positions actually exist I give a big bravo to all of these Candidates
ABOUT SCSSJR 51 by Frieda Keough
SCSSJR 51 - This constitutional amendment if approved by the voters would modify the composition of the Appellate Judicial Commission and the selection process for judges to the Supreme Court and the Court of Appeals This act increases the number of individuals that the Appellate Judicial Commission nominates for vacancies in the Supreme Court or Court of Appeals from three to four Currently the Appellate Judicial Commission consists of seven members as follows one Supreme Court judge a member of the bar from each appellate district elected by members of the bar in that district and a non-bar member citizen from each appellate district appointed by the Governor This act replaces the judge member of the commission with an additional member appointed by the Governor Members appointed by the Governor no longer must be non-bar members The Governor will appoint one member from each appellate district and one from the state at large The appointed members will serve terms of four years Their terms will be staggered so that a Governor will appoint two when taking office and two during the middle of his or her term The Supreme Court will appoint a former Supreme Court or Court of Appeals judge to serve as a nonvoting member of the commission The former judge cannot have been removed for cause or failed to be retained in a retention election The changes to the Appellate Judicial Commission will take effect on January 15 2013 If this is approved by the voters the governor will be accountable for the judges appointed not a faceless group of lawyers

About True The Vote
Unfortunately Americans have lost faith in the integrity of our nations election results and fraud and law-breaking has become all too common in our
electoral system We hope to change that perception True the Vote is a citizen-led effort to restore truth faith and integrity to our elections
Mission Statement
True the Vote is an initiative developed by citizens for citizens meant to inspire and equip volunteers for involvement at every stage of our electoral
process We promote ideas that actively protect the rights of legitimate voters regardless of their political party affiliation We are working to restore
integrity to the American system of electing its leaders With True the Vote we have deconstructed the entire process focusing on educating voters
examining the registry recruiting training and mobilizing election workers and poll watchers training how to collect data all along the way then use the
data to shape government action and legislative agendas to support desperately needed election code reform Our government was built upon the belief
that election results represent the true will of the people and our election processes were always intended to be supported by citizen volunteers We are
helping stop corruption where it can start ndash at the polls
Our initiatives include
Mobilizing and training volunteers who are willing to work as election monitors
Aggressively pursuing fraud reports to ensure prosecution when appropriate
Providing a support system for our volunteers that includes live and online training quick reference guides a call bank to phone in problem
reports information on videotaping at polling places and security as necessary
Creating documentaries and instructional videos for use in recruiting and training
Raising awareness of the problem through strategic outreach efforts including advertising social networking media relations and relational
marketing
Voter registration programs and efforts to validate existing registration lists including the use of pattern recognition software to detect
problem areas

Who Counts in 2012 A Message from True the Vote
How are our votes really counted And who really counts them Recently reports have surfaced about the purchase of SOE a Tampa FL based vote tabulation company by SCYTL an international vote tabulation company based in Barcelona Spain
So Now what We at True the Vote believe that the best safeguard against any potential problems in our elections is an active organized educated citizenry who are willing to take personal responsibility stand in whatever gaps in our electoral system exist and work to improve them Now is not the time for panic Lets get some answers figure out whats going on then spread the word We are asking Congress and the FEC to address what if any role they had in approving the SCYTLSOE purchase and what the impact will be if any to online military vote processing
Heres how you can help
1 Contact your Secretary of State and ask them to provide a statement on how votes are tabulated and reported in your state and if SCYTLSOE is involved at any point in the process You can contact your Secretary of State here Please email us the responses you receive we will post them at wwwtruethevoteorg You can email us here
Here are the Secretary of State responses received thus far TEXAS ARIZONA ALASKA MISSOURI ALABAMA OHIO WASHINGTON 2 Volunteer to help True the Vote Commit to get involved to volunteer at the polls to record the final vote tallies at the polls where you work to track those tallies make sure they are being accurately reported and be prepared to take meaningful and swift action if breaches are found to exist We wont change the electoral process until we are willing to roll up our sleeves and take responsibility for it Sustained responsibility
3 Never forget we are not victims Victims have no options We do Though stories like this will shake us up we must remain resolved to keep level heads acknowledge real problems when they exist work towards solutions and not get caught up in rumor or manufactured hype The days ahead will test the mettle of us all But see victory not defeat
The Leftrsquos National Vote Fraud Strategy Exposed Posted By James Simpson On May 7 2012
reprinted from httpwwwaimorgspecial-reportthe-lefts-national-vote-fraud-strategy-exposedprint
This report reveals the Leftrsquos vote fraud strategy for the 2012 elections Like a KGB operation it is thorough multi-faceted and redundant It has overt and covert illegal and legal elements the
latter of which are designed at least in part to facilitate illegal activities later It is a deliberate premeditated comprehensive plan to win the 2012 presidential election at all costs and is in
keeping with the organizational methods associations and ethics of the Community-Organizer-in-Chief Barack Obama
The Left seeks fundamental structural change to our entire form of government In keeping with their amoral means-justifies-ends philosophy they will register any voters dead or alive legal
or illegal who will then vote as many times as possible in order to establish a ldquopermanent progressive majority [1]rdquo As two New York Democrats recently caught in a vote fraud scandal told [2]police ldquovoter fraud is an accepted way of winning electionshelliprdquo
Low income individuals are the perfect dupes for this strategy An expanding welfare state makes them increasingly dependent on government benefits a development that guarantees their vote for liberal-left candidates At the same time people with marginal attachment to society may be less inclined to report illegal activity at the pollsmdashor actually participate The ldquovictimrdquo
narrative promoted in popular culture and press may even encourage such behavior Meanwhile a growing tax burden and public debt suck private enterprise drymdashpushing ever more people
onto the dole
Politicians of both parties are not above engaging in vote fraud But this kind of corruption is relegated to individual campaigns or areas where corrupt political establishments have been able to
develop unchallenged It is not a systematic component of overall national strategy as it is with the Left
This strategy has been under development for decades They have constructed an entire industry devoted to this task and pursue a multifaceted strategy to accomplish it
1 Swamp election officials with overwhelming numbers of registrations at the last possible minute a huge proportion of which are deliberately fraudulent in order to create systematic chaos This accomplishes numerous goals
Makes verification of registrations difficult given the small size and limited budgets of state and local election offices
Provides multiple opportunities for vote fraud
Throws the entire voting process into question providing pretext for lawsuits where concessions may be obtained from election officials
When election officials challenge registrations they are accused of ldquovoter suppressionrdquo This in turn serves complementary goals
o Charge of ldquovoter suppressionrdquo reinforces the Leftrsquos narrative about America as an oppressive ldquoracistrdquo country
o Publicity and lawsuits intimidate election officials who settle on terms favorable to the Left
2 Activists sue state authorities for ldquovoter suppressionrdquo creating further chaos and pressuring them to become de facto taxpayer-funded voter registration operations
3 Eric Holderrsquos Justice Department tacitly supports voter intimidation tactics sues states and backs private lawsuits and resists reform as ldquovoter suppressionrdquo
4 Leftist echo chamber discredits allegations of vote fraud supports ldquosuppressionrdquo theme and promotes advantageous legislation
The ultimate goal is a systematized taxpayer-funded voting machinery that will guarantee maximum participation from the Leftrsquos voting demographic while undermining the ability to manage
elections and prevent fraud

The Leftrsquos National Vote Fraud Strategy Exposed (cont)
Key to understanding the Leftrsquos vote-fraud strategy is the community organizing group ACORN [3] ACORN has become synonymous with corruption complicity [4] in the subprime mortgage crisis [4] and especially vote fraud [5]
ACORN and its voter registration arm Project Vote [6] hire marginal and unskilled workers at very low rates and use incentive bonuses or quotas to encourage them to collect as many voter
registrations as possible [7] The resulting flood of registrations are fraught with duplicates errors and omissions and a large number are overtly fraudulent including names like ldquoDonald Duckrdquo ldquoMickey Mouserdquo ldquoTony Romordquo of the Dallas Cowboys [8] etc [9][2] [10] According to Matthew Vadum [11] the senior editor at Capital Research Center a total of 400000 bogus ACORN
registrations were thrown out in 2008 alone
ACORN was supposedly disbanded in 2010 but resurrected itself under a slew of new names Former ACORN President Bertha Lewis bragged [12] that they created ldquohellip18 bulletproof community-

1 The Pastors played the Champion the Vote video at their services and according to Tom people were
shocked by the statistics in the video
2 The Pastors said something like this from the pulpitIf you are not registered to vote or fail to vote you
are not doing your duty as a Christian or as an American citizen They then directed the congregation to pick up a voter registration form and a voter guide after the service
Tom said that in the end registering new voters may not have been the most important result of the effort Tom
believes that the real importance of the drives was that they raised awareness of the power of the primary He
reported that Sumter County Florida had the highest percentage turnout for the PPP While he does not attribute
this directly to the voter registration efforts the Supervisor of Elections said that during the drives they

Analysis Conservatives used tactics of the left in Wisconsin win
Nick CareyReuters
657 pm CDT June 6 2012
MADISON Wisconsin (Reuters) - Activists with the conservative Tea Party movement say they owe a lot to their schooling in left-wing
community organizing tactics for the historic Republican victory over the Democrats and their union allies in the Wisconsin recall election
While the Democrats said huge campaign spending by conservatives supporters of Republican Scott Walker allowed him on Tuesday to
become the first governor in US history to survive a recall election the Republicans point to their grassroots get-out-the-vote work as more
important
Advertising can only do so much said Ned Ryun head of the national conservative group American Majority whose sister group American
Majority Action worked closely with Wisconsin activists But talking to someone face to face is a game changer
Combine that personal contact with energizing a mass movement of door knockers and the latest phone software technology to track voters and
you have many of the ingredients for the victory they say
The conservative activists have literally taken a page out of a left-wing radicals guide to organizing - as many have read the late Saul Alinskys
Rules for Radicals
Born in 1909 in Chicago Alinsky - who died in 1972 - began his organizing career in the citys poor Back of the Yards district and is widely
considered the founder of modern community organizing
There was no manual for organizing on the right so we adapted it to the conservative cause said Brown of We the People of the Republic a
Tea Party group based in Madison Wisconsin The left has been good at it for 100 years so what better place to start
Labor unions and liberal activists forced the recall election against Walker because of his successful effort last year to curb the collective
bargaining powers of public sector workers in the Midwestern US state famous for its beer cheese and Harley-Davidsonmotorcycles
The unions with a reputation for excelling at grass-roots organizing not only failed to oust Walker - but he beat his Democratic challenger
Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett by an even bigger margin than his 2010 gubernatorial victory
Out-of-state conservatives flooded Wisconsin with tens of millions of dollars in campaign cash in an election seen as a barometer of the
American political mood ahead of the November 6 presidential election Walker outspend Barrett by more than 7-to-1
Leading US conservative donors made donations to boost Walker
Luke Hilgemann Wisconsin state director of Americans for Prosperity which is backed by conservative billionaire brothers David
and Charles Koch said the group coordinated a network of some 100000 local activists Most of their efforts centered on 17 key counties
Money alone doesnt win elections In the three weeks before the election Walker benefited from a disciplined get-out-the-vote drive mounted
by people associated with the Tea Party movement which reviles President Barack Obama Wisconsin could be a key battleground state in the
November 6 election as Obama seeks re-election against Republican Mitt Romney
A lot of the campaign cash bankrolled a wave of pro-Walker advertising Exit polls taken on Tuesday however indicated the ads may not have
been a decisive factor nearly 90 percent of voters say they chose their candidate before the ad barrage
Not only is the Tea Party alive and kicking those guys ran a great get-out-the-vote campaign said Ford OConnell a Republican strategist and
chairman of the CivicForum PAC political group They have given away the secret recipe for what could win the election for Mitt Romney
This is a paradigm shift added Matt Kibbe president of FreedomWorks a conservative group chaired by former Republican House of
Representatives Majority leader Dick Armey that provides training and resources to Tea Party activists If the grassroots embrace a cause
they make all the difference

Analysis Conservatives used tactics of the left in Wisconsin win (cont)
UNION FAULTS
Analysts said Democrats and unions made fundamental mistakes in Wisconsin Instead of uniting behind one candidate to challenge Walker
Democrats waged a divisive primary and most unions did not back the eventual winner Tom Barrett who has had his own disputes with unions
as mayor of Milwaukee
The Democrats lost valuable time and money while Walker was traveling the country collecting millions of dollars to back his election effort
They also may have miscalculated in choosing Barrett who previously had lost to Walker in 2010
If they are going to recall a governor it hardly makes sense to try to challenge him with a candidate who lost against him last time said Marick
Masters a professor of business and director of labor studies at Wayne State University in Detroit
On Wednesday top labor leaders such as AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka and Teamsters General President Jim Hoffa were not
acknowledging any mistakes publicly and dismissed the idea that events in Wisconsin had a broad implications for the labor movements future
Walker needed every last dime and every last divisive TV ad to maintain a weakened hold on his office Trumka said
Success in Wisconsin this year came with the aid of technology such as a new get-out-the-vote app called Gravity that American Majority Action
provided free to Tea Party activists as conservatives targeted like-minded voters
Prior to the election Tea Party activists reported encountering voters who backed Walker but would be out of state on the day of the election So
activists helped them fill out absentee ballots
We would have lost those votes if we hadnt showed up said Matt Batzel state director of American Majority Action Thats what this is all
about
Note The above article documents how the grassroots played an integral role in the Wisconsin recall A new ldquoget out the voterdquo app called ldquoGravityrdquohellipand groups like American Majority and True the Vote were all part of a unified effort with many other grassroots organizations both local and national to help achieve victory The sophistication of these programs coupled with the manpower and passion of the grassroots movement was a ldquowinningrdquo combination These same tools and strategies will be showcased at our MOPP ldquoWinning in Novemberrdquo seminar that will take place on July 14 2012 We hope you make plans to attend and join us to learn how you can utilize these tools for victory in November

November Is a Plebiscite On the American Revolution
REPRINTED FROM Tuesday May 01 2012
Election Day 2012 will not be a presidential election It will be a plebiscite
Americans will not only be voting for a president (and a House and a third of the Senate) They will be participating in a plebiscite on the definition of America If Americans re-elect the Democrat Barack Obama they will have announced that America should be like Western European countries -- governed by left-wing values Americans will have decided that Americas value system -- Liberty In God We Trust E Pluribus Unum -- should be replaced The election in November is therefore a plebiscite on the American Revolution The usual description of presidential elections -- the most important in our lifetime -- is true this time In fact it may be the most important election since the Civil War and possibly since Americas founding
The left knows what is at stake And the most left-wing president in American history knows what is at stake Candidate Obama announced shortly before the 2008 election We are five days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America He described the lefts aim perfectly to fundamentally transform America It seeks to replace Liberty In God We Trust and E Pluribus Unum That is what fundamentally transform means In fact those words are proof that American values and leftist values are fundamentally opposed to one another
The right on the other hand seeks to maintain Americas values Conservatives want to improve America but as its name implies conservatism seeks to conserve not transform Liberty means first and foremost limited government -- because bigger government means less individual liberty In God We Trust means that America must be rooted in Creator-based values There are no inalienable rights if no rights derive from God And E Pluribus Unum means the assumption of an American identity by all citizens regardless of their racial ethnic or national background
The left seeks to replace Liberty with Equality Material inequality is the great evil and if individual liberty needs to be sacrificed to attain equality so be it Creator-based values are to be replaced by government-based values God-fearing is to be replaced by State-fearing God must be removed from schools and wherever else the left can succeed in doing so E Pluribus Unum is to be replaced by multiculturalism For leftism the very words American identity conjure up chauvinism if not fascism
For these reasons this election is not just a choice between a Democrat and a Republican It is between Americanism and leftism This does not mean that left-wing Americans are un-American or unpatriotic -- or that they do not love their country The conflict between Americanism and leftism is between ideas not between decent and indecent people But it is an unfortunate fact of life that decent people can believe in bad ideas If this were not so few of the greatest evils would ever have occurred
If this election is indeed a plebiscite on America Mitt Romney cannot campaign solely or even primarily on the state of the economy First what if the economy even slightly improves What happens then to Governor Romneys appeal Moreover relying for ones success on the suffering of ones fellow Americans is morally as well as politically perilous Second Americans want to vote for more than an economic Mr Fix-It as desirable as such a person is
So too Mr Romney should not overly personalize his campaign He is running against Obama but Barack Obama is not the biggest issue The lefts desire to transform America is the biggest issue Barack Obama is to be opposed because he is a man of the left Mitt Romney and the entire Republican Party need to describe this election as the plebiscite on America that it is The most urgent task in American life is to make clear and then repeat as often as possible leftist values and American values are in conflict
Instead of asking Are you better off than you were three years ago Every Republican needs to ask every day Do you want to fundamentally transform America If they do Barack Obama is their man If they dont Mitt Romney is
NOTE The Missouri Caucuses are completed A lot of people got involved this year and were very passionate about the various
candidates Not everybody is happy One even hears that voting for the supposed nominee Mitt Romney is no different than Barack Obama So why bother to vote We should all remember that the next President will probably be in a position to nominate up to four Supreme Court justices So keep this in mind when you make your decisions about who to support Current age of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg - 79 years Stephen Breyer - 73 years
Anthony Kennedy - 75 years Antonin Scalia - 76 tears We cannot afford to have a President Obama replace any Supreme Court Justices but especially not a Antonin Scalia Especially if we do not have at least 41 Senators that would be willing to stand up and vote no for any Supreme Court nominee that does not have true constitutional credentials Supposedly Mitt Romney has appointed a group of individuals to review possible candidates for the Supreme Court This is encouraging especially since the man heading this group is Robert Borck one of the best constitutional jurists this country has ever produced

Obamas Second Term Transformation Plans By Steve McCann
The 2012 election has often been described as the most pivotal since 1860 This statement is not hyperbole If Barack Obama is re-elected the
United States will never be the same nor will it be able to re-capture its once lofty status as the most dominant nation in the history of mankind The overwhelming majority of Americans do not understand that Obamas first term was dedicated to putting in place executive power to enable him
and the administration to fulfill the campaign promise of transforming America in his second term regardless of which political party controls
Congress That is why his re-election team is virtually ignoring the plight of incumbent or prospective Democratic Party office holders
The most significant accomplishment of Obamas first term is to make Congress irrelevant Under the myopic and blindly loyal leadership of Harry
Reid and Nancy Pelosi the Democrats have succeeded in creating an imperial and in a second term a potential dictatorial presidency
During the first two years of the Obama administration when the Democrats overwhelming controlled both Houses of Congress and the media was in
an Obama worshipping stupor a myriad of laws were passed and actions taken which transferred virtually unlimited power to the executive branch The birth of multi-thousand page laws was not an aberration This tactic was adopted so the bureaucracy controlled by Obama appointees would
have sole discretion in interpreting vaguely written laws and enforcing thousands of pages of regulations they and not Congress would subsequently
write
For example in the 2700 pages of ObamaCare there are more than 2500 references to the Secretary of Health and Human Services There are more
than 700 instances when he or she is instructed that they shall do something and more than 200 times when they may take at their sole discretion
some form of regulatory action On 139 occasions the law mentions that the Secretary determines In essence one person appointed by and
reporting to the president will be in charge of the health care of 310 million Americans once ObamaCare is fully operational in 2014
The same is true in the 2319 pages of the Dodd-Frank Financial Reform Act which confers nearly unlimited power on various agencies to control by
fiat the nations financial banking and investment sectors The bill also creates new agencies such as the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau not
subject to any oversight by Congress This overall process was repeated numerous times with other legislation all with the intent of granting
unfettered power to the executive branch controlled Barack Obama and his radical associates
Additionally the Obama administration has through its unilaterally determined rule making and regulatory powers created laws out of whole cloth
The Environmental Protection Agency on a near daily basis issues new regulations clearly out of their purview in order to modify and change
environmental laws previously passed and to impose a radical green agenda never approved by Congress The same is true of the Energy and Interior
Departments among many others
None of these extra-constitutional actions have been challenged by Congress The left in America knows this usurpation of power is nearly
impossible to reverse unless stopped in its early stages
It is clearly the mindset of this administration and its appointees that Congress is merely a nuisance and can be ignored after they were able to take
full advantage of the useful idiots in the Democrat controlled House and Senate in 2009-2010 and the Democrat Senate in the current Congress Additionally Barack Obama knows after his re-election a Republican controlled House and Senate will not be able to enact any legislation to roll
back the power previously granted to the Executive Branch or usurped by them His veto will not be overridden as there will always be at least 145
Democratic members of the House or 34 in the Senate in agreement with or intimidated by an administration more than willing to use Chicago style
political tactics
The stalemate between the Executive and Legislative Branches will inure to the benefit of Barack Obama and his fellow leftists The most significant power Congress has is the control of the purse-strings as all spending must be approved by them However once re-elected
Barack Obama as confirmed by his willingness to do or say anything and his unscrupulous re-election tactics would not only threaten government
shutdowns but would deliberately withhold payments to those dependent on government support as a means of intimidating and forcing a Republican
controlled Congress to surrender to his demands thus neutering their ability to control the administration through spending constraints Further this administration has shown contempt for the courts by ignoring various court orders eg the Gulf of Mexico oil drilling moratorium as
well as stonewalling subpoenas and requests issued by Congress The Eric Holder Justice Department has become the epitome of corruption as part
of the most dishonest and deceitful administration in American history In a second term the arrogance of Barack Obama and his minions will
become more blatant as he will not have to be concerned with re-election
Who will be there to enforce the rule of law a Supreme Court ruling or the Constitution No one Barack Obama and his fellow-travelers will be
unchallenged as they run roughshod over the American people
Many Republicans and conservatives dissatisfied with the prospect of Mitt Romney as the nominee for president are instead focused on re-taking the
House and Senate That goal while worthy and necessary is meaningless unless Barack Obama is defeated The nation is not dealing with a person
of character and integrity but someone of single-minded purpose and overwhelming narcissism Judging by his actions words and deeds during his
first term he does not intend to work with Congress either Republican or Democrat in his second term but rather to force his radical agenda on the
American people through the power he has usurped or been granted
The governmental structure of the United States was set up by the founders in the hope that over the years only those people of high moral character
and integrity would assume the reins of power However knowing that was not always possible they dispersed power over three distinct and
independent branches as a check on each other
14
Obamas Second Term Transformation Plans (cont)
What they could not imagine is the surrender and abdication of its constitutional duty by the preeminent governmental branch the Congress to a
chief executive devoid of any character or integrity coupled with a judiciary essentially powerless to enforce the law when the chief executive ignores
them
Conservatives Libertarians the Republican Party and Mitt Romney must come to grips with this moment in time and their historical role in denying
Barack Obama and his minions their ultimate goal All resources must be directed at that end-game and not merely controlling Congress and the
various committee chairmanships

Winning the Youth Vote
Posted by Mindy Reifer 12pc on May 03 2012 middot Flag
After clearly indicating their strategic ploys to secure the women vote this election cycle Democrats are now sharpening their rhetoric aimed at reclaiming the youth vote President Obama directed his April campaigning towards college students focusing on college-loan rates and other university-related political issues
Since the 2008 election results were first analyzed the prominence of the youth vote has weighed heavily on both Democratic and Republican candidatesrsquo campaign decisions The popular myth circulating is that for Obamarsquos 2008 win the youth vote turned out in remarkably unprecedented numbers And all Obama has to do is continue this pattern to secure his
electoral victory
But that might be easier said than done this time around
First Obama did not in fact grow the youth vote very much and certainly not in unprecedented numbers What Obama actually did accomplish in 2008 was to turn the youth vote largely
away from Republicans securing a majority of votes from voters aged 18-29 The actual growth of the youth vote though was just 1
Posting on the Washington Postrsquos website on April 24 Chris Cillizza and Aaron Blakeat demonstrate that while political organizations claimed that Obamarsquos election was in part due to a more than 22 million youth voter turnout increase ldquoyoung voters comprised 18 percent of the electorate in 2008 a one-point improvement from their share of the electorate in 2004 2000
and 1996 but nowhere near the heights they reached in the 1980srdquo
Misrepresentation of Obamarsquos success at the polls led to many dishonest facts being promulgated to bolster the supposed turnout-increasing abilities of our president Even before the
finally tally in 2008 Heather Smith of Rock the Vote (as quoted by Melissa Dahl on MSNBCcom) said ldquoWe expected record turnout and that is what wersquore seeing right nowrdquo
Hindsight proved that it was not at all a record turnout certainly not when the 1980 and 1984 Reagan Revolution is considered but it was a record margin in favor of the Democratic nominee And this youth vote clobbering likely tilted the election in Obamarsquos favor Dahl says that ldquoyoung voters preferred Obama over John McCain by 68 percent to 30 percent mdash the
highest share of the youth vote obtained by any candidate since exit polls began reporting results by age in 1976 according to CIRCLE a non-partisan organizationrdquo
It is not only Obama and Democrats who are going after the youth vote At the same time that Obama was appealing to his prime target Romney was giving stump speeches about
student loans and college costs (In pure campaign-mode Obama demanded that Congress keep student loan rates low something that Republicans in Congress have also supported)
It remains to be seen if Obama will once again secure the youth vote or by what margin
This time around Republicans have a stronger platform to run on Obamarsquos record Statistics released by the Republican Study Committee on April 30 show that more than half of recent
college graduates are unemployed or underemployed In fact 85 of college graduates will be moving back home with their parents hardly the ideal goal of a college grad
Many of the youngest of 2008rsquos voters have now graduated college and are finding themselves enveloped in student debt and facing the harsh realities of the Obama recession And of
course the older end of the youth vote have now matured somewhat witnessing first-hand the destruction Obamarsquos policies have wrought on our economy and foreign image
And it is up to this very demographic to perhaps effect the biggest change in the election outcome this November But unfortunately youth voters are still favoring Obama over Romney by a strong margin strong enough to win him reelection An April 2012 Washington Post-ABC survey showed Obama leading Romney by 21 points among 18-29-year olds Romney is
correct in assuming he needs to appeal to the youth vote not just to grow the turnout but more importantly to urge deflections over to the Republicans side in order to secure the election
Romney needs to focus on the economy not just student loan rates He needs to remind young voters that they will need jobs to pay back their loans no matter how low interest rates remain And moving back home with Mom and Dad is no way to spend onersquos first year as a college graduate America needs to once again be a nation of unique unprecedented
economy opportunity and a 2012 ldquoReaganrdquo revolution is necessary to put the US back on track to prosperity

The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
December 9 2011
By Sara Noble
ldquoThe elective franchise if guarded as the ark of our safety will peaceably dissipate all combinations to subvert a Constitution dictated by the
wisdom and resting on the will of the peoplerdquo ~ Thomas Jefferson
While Americans are focused on the election the Progressive wing of the Democratic Party funded by two eccentric businessmen and a George Soros son are stealthily orchestrating the decimation of the voting process and states rights through the National Popular Vote Compact (NPV)
The NPV is a popular sound bite that will do the opposite of what it is portrayed to do ndash make each Americanrsquos vote count It does not do that
because it keeps the electoral college but misuses it What it actually does is create a ldquoforced mergerrdquo between heavily populated states and less populated states
Currently moving at a rapid pace the NPV is a state-by-state initiative that will force states to allocate their electoral votes to the winner of
the national popular vote rather than the winner of the popular vote in their state
NPV will greatly reduce the power of most states in that the highly populated states will be able to gain the electoral votes and in fact 11 states could decide the Presidential election
California Texas New York Florida Illinois Pennsylvania Ohio Michigan Georgia North Carolina and New Jersey have 57 of the votes cast
in 2008 and together they have 270 electoral votes the amount necessary to win the election Do you want these states to decide who is President
while other states have no say
Is this what the Founding Fathers wanted An election based on demographics and geographics
Why is the current structure of the electoral college so important Our Founding Fathers believed that the state by state disbursed system
maintained the sovereignty of the states and disallowed Federalism The containment of ldquomischiefrdquo or voter fraud of the ACORN type is contained within states instead of being spread nationally The electoral college provides balance and firewalls against voter fraud
Do you believe all states should be purple and not red or blue Then you do NOT want the NPV Supporters of the NPV claim it will favor
Republicans in that there are more underutilized Republican votes than Democratic votes which I doubt since the heavily populated states are predominantly liberal Whether this is true or not does not matter
17
The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
(cont)
We should not favor one side or the other in the United States of America
The initiative has been approved by half the states necessary to pass it The states that have approved it equal 70 electoral votes and only 138 are needed for it to pass It is well on its way to becoming law
NPV circumvents the Constitution by allowing individual states to change the Constitution without an amendment However the compact clause of
the Constitution does not allow any state to ldquoenter into any Agreement or Compact with another Staterdquo Liberal states like California could join with
Illinois New York and another 8 other liberal states forming a super bloc that would give all their electoral votes to the winner forming the bloc that could take the election
Article V specifically states that the Constitution must be amended ldquono State without its Consent shall be deprived of its equal Suffrage in the Senaterdquo The NPV as structured will immediately take effect without an amendment and it will probably be in time for the 2012 election
NPV has bipartisan support and the opposition should be bipartisan as well It is not a partisan issue it is about states rights and the power of each individual guaranteed by the electoral college
NPV will have many unwanted side effects The states that decide the election will probably be the states that receive the federal dollars because
their votes count They will likely be the only states that candidates will visit
Another problematic side effect reared its ugly head in my own Congressional district on Long Island Our congressman Tim Bishop received most
of his funding from New York City and other areas outside Long Island including as far away as California NPV will encourage the influx of money from outside the key 11 states It will be lobbying on steroids
Then there is the nationalization of voter fraud Some states require proof of citizenship photo IDrsquos no IDrsquos but NPV will eliminate that choice and the containment of fraud that states provide
I personally experienced absentee voter fraud For example one woman voted from Canada and used the address of a local middle school The courts
in NY let these votes stand Even the dead people we found were counted because you only have a few days to prove they are dead and courts want a
death certificate which is hard to get on hundreds of people in a matter of days So in NY dead people vote I happen to know of a number of illegal
aliens who voted as well
In Kansas the Democratic primary of Rizzo vs Royster shows the seriousness of voter fraud A group in support of Rizzo brought in 50 Somali nationals to vote Rizzo won by one vote
ACORN often mobilizes aliens to vote
In Mississippi 23 counties had more people registered to vote than were alive
Examples are endless though some would have us believe fraud is not a widespread problem
There is the costly and lengthy litigation which will ensue if NPV passes Examples are -
What happens constitutionally if a state in the NPV doesnrsquot like the candidate they are forced to give their electoral votes to and pulls out of the
compact though they are not free to do so
NPV does not meet equal protection under the 14th amendment for the states who do not sign on to the NPV
The compact clause Article I suggests it needs congressional approval
Article II delegates power to the states which the NPV overrides
Administratively a non-qualified person not even on the ballot could win it will force states with solid voting requirements to go with those who
allow rampant fraud if they have higher population density the individuality of states that includes early voter registration felons voting voting by mail et cetera will dissolve into the requirements of the heavily populated states Close elections will cause inevitable and lengthy delays
There is even a question of whether some states will be able to vote under the compact
18
The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
(cont)
Litigation will take a long time and could end up leaving the incumbent President in place for months or years
NPV will -
Federalize the vote
Destroy state sovereignty in the Presidential election
Circumvent the Constitution
Disenfranchise voters by giving 11 states the power to decide the election
It will ignite endless litigation
Reduce voting to the lowest common denominator
Give a handful of states supremacy
NPV is a ldquoone size fits allrdquo and it forces many states to abandon the voting procedures and policies that make them unique It focuses on the end
results and sacrifices process

GETTING INVOLVED IN YOUR PRECINCT
WHY Because we believe ldquoall politics is localrdquo
Become involved at the local level to restore conservative values and principles that will then ldquotrickle UPrdquo to all levels of government
MOPP is not the first to utilize this strategy ndash Phyllis Schlafly implemented the ldquoprecinct strategyrdquo to defeat the ERA 30+ years ago
We believe that Missouri needed to join the ranks of other states with similar efforts including Texas Florida Pennsylvania Nevada and
Utah
We want to encourage Missourians across the State to work in their own communities and counties to make a differencehellip
WHAT MOPPrsquos 4 pronged strategy
1 Key element (hence the name Missouri Precinct Project) Identify the 40-50 of the unfilled precincttownship
committee positions in their county that go unfilled (many of our members have filed to fill these positions across the
state ndash ie St Louis County stat 35 new)
2 Get out the Conservative vote ndash
a MOPP encourages its members to utilize our database (we are in the final stage of determining which program we
will be using) to canvass their neighborhood to identify and register conservative voters educate voters on issues
and candidates and get them to the polls on election day
b MOPP also partners with ldquoChampion The Votehellipencouraging our volunteers to become Champions in the
Champion the Vote program to register unregistered Christian voters (in Missouri in 2008 there was only a
4000 difference between the 2 presidential candidateshellipthatrsquos a pretty close margin but yet there are
approximately 150000 unregistered Christians in the State)
Go here to become a ldquoChampionrdquo httpchampionthevotecomheadquartersmissouri
3 Encourage becoming a poll worker to help prevent voter fraud
4 Build and maintain a database in order to form a more effective coalition united voice for Conservatives across the State
HOW EducateMotivatendash
1 Precinct training seminar last October partnering with Dallas Tea Party and American Majority
2 Precinct Organizing and Preventing Voter Fraud training (Feb 2012)
3 Caucus Training Seminar
4 Training Manuals ndash
--Caucus 101 Handbook

never been involved before)

IN SUMMARY If we are ever to get control of our government and change the type of people we get into office and the control that big-
money currently brings we must get directly and actively involved at the grassroots level in the two-party system
It is not going to be easy and it is not going to change overnight But without this approach we are simply reshuffling the
chairs on the deck of the Titanic Do we just want the furniture to look better before we crash into the iceberg or do we
want to change the shiprsquos course to prevent it from sinking
Mission Statement
Restore Constitutional principles and conservative values by engaging conservatives in grassroots politics

ABOUT SCSSJR 51 by Frieda Keough
SCSSJR 51 - This constitutional amendment if approved by the voters would modify the composition of the Appellate Judicial Commission and the selection process for judges to the Supreme Court and the Court of Appeals This act increases the number of individuals that the Appellate Judicial Commission nominates for vacancies in the Supreme Court or Court of Appeals from three to four Currently the Appellate Judicial Commission consists of seven members as follows one Supreme Court judge a member of the bar from each appellate district elected by members of the bar in that district and a non-bar member citizen from each appellate district appointed by the Governor This act replaces the judge member of the commission with an additional member appointed by the Governor Members appointed by the Governor no longer must be non-bar members The Governor will appoint one member from each appellate district and one from the state at large The appointed members will serve terms of four years Their terms will be staggered so that a Governor will appoint two when taking office and two during the middle of his or her term The Supreme Court will appoint a former Supreme Court or Court of Appeals judge to serve as a nonvoting member of the commission The former judge cannot have been removed for cause or failed to be retained in a retention election The changes to the Appellate Judicial Commission will take effect on January 15 2013 If this is approved by the voters the governor will be accountable for the judges appointed not a faceless group of lawyers

The Leftrsquos National Vote Fraud Strategy Exposed Posted By James Simpson On May 7 2012
reprinted from httpwwwaimorgspecial-reportthe-lefts-national-vote-fraud-strategy-exposedprint
This report reveals the Leftrsquos vote fraud strategy for the 2012 elections Like a KGB operation it is thorough multi-faceted and redundant It has overt and covert illegal and legal elements the
latter of which are designed at least in part to facilitate illegal activities later It is a deliberate premeditated comprehensive plan to win the 2012 presidential election at all costs and is in
keeping with the organizational methods associations and ethics of the Community-Organizer-in-Chief Barack Obama
The Left seeks fundamental structural change to our entire form of government In keeping with their amoral means-justifies-ends philosophy they will register any voters dead or alive legal
or illegal who will then vote as many times as possible in order to establish a ldquopermanent progressive majority [1]rdquo As two New York Democrats recently caught in a vote fraud scandal told [2]police ldquovoter fraud is an accepted way of winning electionshelliprdquo
Low income individuals are the perfect dupes for this strategy An expanding welfare state makes them increasingly dependent on government benefits a development that guarantees their vote for liberal-left candidates At the same time people with marginal attachment to society may be less inclined to report illegal activity at the pollsmdashor actually participate The ldquovictimrdquo
narrative promoted in popular culture and press may even encourage such behavior Meanwhile a growing tax burden and public debt suck private enterprise drymdashpushing ever more people
onto the dole
Politicians of both parties are not above engaging in vote fraud But this kind of corruption is relegated to individual campaigns or areas where corrupt political establishments have been able to
develop unchallenged It is not a systematic component of overall national strategy as it is with the Left
This strategy has been under development for decades They have constructed an entire industry devoted to this task and pursue a multifaceted strategy to accomplish it
1 Swamp election officials with overwhelming numbers of registrations at the last possible minute a huge proportion of which are deliberately fraudulent in order to create systematic chaos This accomplishes numerous goals
Makes verification of registrations difficult given the small size and limited budgets of state and local election offices
Provides multiple opportunities for vote fraud
Throws the entire voting process into question providing pretext for lawsuits where concessions may be obtained from election officials
When election officials challenge registrations they are accused of ldquovoter suppressionrdquo This in turn serves complementary goals
o Charge of ldquovoter suppressionrdquo reinforces the Leftrsquos narrative about America as an oppressive ldquoracistrdquo country
o Publicity and lawsuits intimidate election officials who settle on terms favorable to the Left
2 Activists sue state authorities for ldquovoter suppressionrdquo creating further chaos and pressuring them to become de facto taxpayer-funded voter registration operations
3 Eric Holderrsquos Justice Department tacitly supports voter intimidation tactics sues states and backs private lawsuits and resists reform as ldquovoter suppressionrdquo
4 Leftist echo chamber discredits allegations of vote fraud supports ldquosuppressionrdquo theme and promotes advantageous legislation
The ultimate goal is a systematized taxpayer-funded voting machinery that will guarantee maximum participation from the Leftrsquos voting demographic while undermining the ability to manage
elections and prevent fraud

ACORN and its voter registration arm Project Vote [6] hire marginal and unskilled workers at very low rates and use incentive bonuses or quotas to encourage them to collect as many voter
registrations as possible [7] The resulting flood of registrations are fraught with duplicates errors and omissions and a large number are overtly fraudulent including names like ldquoDonald Duckrdquo ldquoMickey Mouserdquo ldquoTony Romordquo of the Dallas Cowboys [8] etc [9][2] [10] According to Matthew Vadum [11] the senior editor at Capital Research Center a total of 400000 bogus ACORN

Champion Tom Coutre and his wife helped set up 25 Voter Registration Drives in 25 different churches in Sumter Marion and Lake Counties prior to Floridas Presidential Primary (PPP) With the help of volunteers from the
churches they distributed about 2000 voter registration forms
Tom reported that the churches with the highest rate of success did these two things
1 The Pastors played the Champion the Vote video at their services and according to Tom people were
shocked by the statistics in the video
2 The Pastors said something like this from the pulpitIf you are not registered to vote or fail to vote you
are not doing your duty as a Christian or as an American citizen They then directed the congregation to pick up a voter registration form and a voter guide after the service
Tom said that in the end registering new voters may not have been the most important result of the effort Tom
believes that the real importance of the drives was that they raised awareness of the power of the primary He
reported that Sumter County Florida had the highest percentage turnout for the PPP While he does not attribute
this directly to the voter registration efforts the Supervisor of Elections said that during the drives they
experienced an unusual number of new voter registrations in which voters changed their party affiliation Let us know what youre doing to champion the vote in your community and beyond

Analysis Conservatives used tactics of the left in Wisconsin win
Nick CareyReuters
657 pm CDT June 6 2012
MADISON Wisconsin (Reuters) - Activists with the conservative Tea Party movement say they owe a lot to their schooling in left-wing
community organizing tactics for the historic Republican victory over the Democrats and their union allies in the Wisconsin recall election
While the Democrats said huge campaign spending by conservatives supporters of Republican Scott Walker allowed him on Tuesday to
become the first governor in US history to survive a recall election the Republicans point to their grassroots get-out-the-vote work as more
important
Advertising can only do so much said Ned Ryun head of the national conservative group American Majority whose sister group American
Majority Action worked closely with Wisconsin activists But talking to someone face to face is a game changer
Combine that personal contact with energizing a mass movement of door knockers and the latest phone software technology to track voters and
you have many of the ingredients for the victory they say
The conservative activists have literally taken a page out of a left-wing radicals guide to organizing - as many have read the late Saul Alinskys
Rules for Radicals
Born in 1909 in Chicago Alinsky - who died in 1972 - began his organizing career in the citys poor Back of the Yards district and is widely
considered the founder of modern community organizing
There was no manual for organizing on the right so we adapted it to the conservative cause said Brown of We the People of the Republic a
Tea Party group based in Madison Wisconsin The left has been good at it for 100 years so what better place to start
Labor unions and liberal activists forced the recall election against Walker because of his successful effort last year to curb the collective
bargaining powers of public sector workers in the Midwestern US state famous for its beer cheese and Harley-Davidsonmotorcycles
The unions with a reputation for excelling at grass-roots organizing not only failed to oust Walker - but he beat his Democratic challenger
Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett by an even bigger margin than his 2010 gubernatorial victory
Out-of-state conservatives flooded Wisconsin with tens of millions of dollars in campaign cash in an election seen as a barometer of the
American political mood ahead of the November 6 presidential election Walker outspend Barrett by more than 7-to-1
Leading US conservative donors made donations to boost Walker
Luke Hilgemann Wisconsin state director of Americans for Prosperity which is backed by conservative billionaire brothers David
and Charles Koch said the group coordinated a network of some 100000 local activists Most of their efforts centered on 17 key counties
Money alone doesnt win elections In the three weeks before the election Walker benefited from a disciplined get-out-the-vote drive mounted
by people associated with the Tea Party movement which reviles President Barack Obama Wisconsin could be a key battleground state in the
November 6 election as Obama seeks re-election against Republican Mitt Romney
A lot of the campaign cash bankrolled a wave of pro-Walker advertising Exit polls taken on Tuesday however indicated the ads may not have
been a decisive factor nearly 90 percent of voters say they chose their candidate before the ad barrage
Not only is the Tea Party alive and kicking those guys ran a great get-out-the-vote campaign said Ford OConnell a Republican strategist and
chairman of the CivicForum PAC political group They have given away the secret recipe for what could win the election for Mitt Romney
This is a paradigm shift added Matt Kibbe president of FreedomWorks a conservative group chaired by former Republican House of
Representatives Majority leader Dick Armey that provides training and resources to Tea Party activists If the grassroots embrace a cause
they make all the difference
11
Analysis Conservatives used tactics of the left in Wisconsin win (cont)
UNION FAULTS
Analysts said Democrats and unions made fundamental mistakes in Wisconsin Instead of uniting behind one candidate to challenge Walker
Democrats waged a divisive primary and most unions did not back the eventual winner Tom Barrett who has had his own disputes with unions
as mayor of Milwaukee
The Democrats lost valuable time and money while Walker was traveling the country collecting millions of dollars to back his election effort
They also may have miscalculated in choosing Barrett who previously had lost to Walker in 2010
If they are going to recall a governor it hardly makes sense to try to challenge him with a candidate who lost against him last time said Marick
Masters a professor of business and director of labor studies at Wayne State University in Detroit
On Wednesday top labor leaders such as AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka and Teamsters General President Jim Hoffa were not
acknowledging any mistakes publicly and dismissed the idea that events in Wisconsin had a broad implications for the labor movements future
Walker needed every last dime and every last divisive TV ad to maintain a weakened hold on his office Trumka said
Success in Wisconsin this year came with the aid of technology such as a new get-out-the-vote app called Gravity that American Majority Action
provided free to Tea Party activists as conservatives targeted like-minded voters
Prior to the election Tea Party activists reported encountering voters who backed Walker but would be out of state on the day of the election So
activists helped them fill out absentee ballots
We would have lost those votes if we hadnt showed up said Matt Batzel state director of American Majority Action Thats what this is all
about
Note The above article documents how the grassroots played an integral role in the Wisconsin recall A new ldquoget out the voterdquo app called ldquoGravityrdquohellipand groups like American Majority and True the Vote were all part of a unified effort with many other grassroots organizations both local and national to help achieve victory The sophistication of these programs coupled with the manpower and passion of the grassroots movement was a ldquowinningrdquo combination These same tools and strategies will be showcased at our MOPP ldquoWinning in Novemberrdquo seminar that will take place on July 14 2012 We hope you make plans to attend and join us to learn how you can utilize these tools for victory in November

November Is a Plebiscite On the American Revolution
REPRINTED FROM Tuesday May 01 2012
Election Day 2012 will not be a presidential election It will be a plebiscite
Americans will not only be voting for a president (and a House and a third of the Senate) They will be participating in a plebiscite on the definition of America If Americans re-elect the Democrat Barack Obama they will have announced that America should be like Western European countries -- governed by left-wing values Americans will have decided that Americas value system -- Liberty In God We Trust E Pluribus Unum -- should be replaced The election in November is therefore a plebiscite on the American Revolution The usual description of presidential elections -- the most important in our lifetime -- is true this time In fact it may be the most important election since the Civil War and possibly since Americas founding
The left knows what is at stake And the most left-wing president in American history knows what is at stake Candidate Obama announced shortly before the 2008 election We are five days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America He described the lefts aim perfectly to fundamentally transform America It seeks to replace Liberty In God We Trust and E Pluribus Unum That is what fundamentally transform means In fact those words are proof that American values and leftist values are fundamentally opposed to one another
The right on the other hand seeks to maintain Americas values Conservatives want to improve America but as its name implies conservatism seeks to conserve not transform Liberty means first and foremost limited government -- because bigger government means less individual liberty In God We Trust means that America must be rooted in Creator-based values There are no inalienable rights if no rights derive from God And E Pluribus Unum means the assumption of an American identity by all citizens regardless of their racial ethnic or national background
The left seeks to replace Liberty with Equality Material inequality is the great evil and if individual liberty needs to be sacrificed to attain equality so be it Creator-based values are to be replaced by government-based values God-fearing is to be replaced by State-fearing God must be removed from schools and wherever else the left can succeed in doing so E Pluribus Unum is to be replaced by multiculturalism For leftism the very words American identity conjure up chauvinism if not fascism
For these reasons this election is not just a choice between a Democrat and a Republican It is between Americanism and leftism This does not mean that left-wing Americans are un-American or unpatriotic -- or that they do not love their country The conflict between Americanism and leftism is between ideas not between decent and indecent people But it is an unfortunate fact of life that decent people can believe in bad ideas If this were not so few of the greatest evils would ever have occurred
If this election is indeed a plebiscite on America Mitt Romney cannot campaign solely or even primarily on the state of the economy First what if the economy even slightly improves What happens then to Governor Romneys appeal Moreover relying for ones success on the suffering of ones fellow Americans is morally as well as politically perilous Second Americans want to vote for more than an economic Mr Fix-It as desirable as such a person is
So too Mr Romney should not overly personalize his campaign He is running against Obama but Barack Obama is not the biggest issue The lefts desire to transform America is the biggest issue Barack Obama is to be opposed because he is a man of the left Mitt Romney and the entire Republican Party need to describe this election as the plebiscite on America that it is The most urgent task in American life is to make clear and then repeat as often as possible leftist values and American values are in conflict
Instead of asking Are you better off than you were three years ago Every Republican needs to ask every day Do you want to fundamentally transform America If they do Barack Obama is their man If they dont Mitt Romney is
NOTE The Missouri Caucuses are completed A lot of people got involved this year and were very passionate about the various
candidates Not everybody is happy One even hears that voting for the supposed nominee Mitt Romney is no different than Barack Obama So why bother to vote We should all remember that the next President will probably be in a position to nominate up to four Supreme Court justices So keep this in mind when you make your decisions about who to support Current age of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg - 79 years Stephen Breyer - 73 years
Anthony Kennedy - 75 years Antonin Scalia - 76 tears We cannot afford to have a President Obama replace any Supreme Court Justices but especially not a Antonin Scalia Especially if we do not have at least 41 Senators that would be willing to stand up and vote no for any Supreme Court nominee that does not have true constitutional credentials Supposedly Mitt Romney has appointed a group of individuals to review possible candidates for the Supreme Court This is encouraging especially since the man heading this group is Robert Borck one of the best constitutional jurists this country has ever produced

Obamas Second Term Transformation Plans By Steve McCann
The 2012 election has often been described as the most pivotal since 1860 This statement is not hyperbole If Barack Obama is re-elected the
United States will never be the same nor will it be able to re-capture its once lofty status as the most dominant nation in the history of mankind The overwhelming majority of Americans do not understand that Obamas first term was dedicated to putting in place executive power to enable him
and the administration to fulfill the campaign promise of transforming America in his second term regardless of which political party controls
Congress That is why his re-election team is virtually ignoring the plight of incumbent or prospective Democratic Party office holders
The most significant accomplishment of Obamas first term is to make Congress irrelevant Under the myopic and blindly loyal leadership of Harry
Reid and Nancy Pelosi the Democrats have succeeded in creating an imperial and in a second term a potential dictatorial presidency
During the first two years of the Obama administration when the Democrats overwhelming controlled both Houses of Congress and the media was in
an Obama worshipping stupor a myriad of laws were passed and actions taken which transferred virtually unlimited power to the executive branch The birth of multi-thousand page laws was not an aberration This tactic was adopted so the bureaucracy controlled by Obama appointees would
have sole discretion in interpreting vaguely written laws and enforcing thousands of pages of regulations they and not Congress would subsequently
write
For example in the 2700 pages of ObamaCare there are more than 2500 references to the Secretary of Health and Human Services There are more
than 700 instances when he or she is instructed that they shall do something and more than 200 times when they may take at their sole discretion
some form of regulatory action On 139 occasions the law mentions that the Secretary determines In essence one person appointed by and
reporting to the president will be in charge of the health care of 310 million Americans once ObamaCare is fully operational in 2014
The same is true in the 2319 pages of the Dodd-Frank Financial Reform Act which confers nearly unlimited power on various agencies to control by
fiat the nations financial banking and investment sectors The bill also creates new agencies such as the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau not
subject to any oversight by Congress This overall process was repeated numerous times with other legislation all with the intent of granting
unfettered power to the executive branch controlled Barack Obama and his radical associates
Additionally the Obama administration has through its unilaterally determined rule making and regulatory powers created laws out of whole cloth
The Environmental Protection Agency on a near daily basis issues new regulations clearly out of their purview in order to modify and change
environmental laws previously passed and to impose a radical green agenda never approved by Congress The same is true of the Energy and Interior
Departments among many others
None of these extra-constitutional actions have been challenged by Congress The left in America knows this usurpation of power is nearly
impossible to reverse unless stopped in its early stages
It is clearly the mindset of this administration and its appointees that Congress is merely a nuisance and can be ignored after they were able to take
full advantage of the useful idiots in the Democrat controlled House and Senate in 2009-2010 and the Democrat Senate in the current Congress Additionally Barack Obama knows after his re-election a Republican controlled House and Senate will not be able to enact any legislation to roll
back the power previously granted to the Executive Branch or usurped by them His veto will not be overridden as there will always be at least 145
Democratic members of the House or 34 in the Senate in agreement with or intimidated by an administration more than willing to use Chicago style
political tactics
The stalemate between the Executive and Legislative Branches will inure to the benefit of Barack Obama and his fellow leftists The most significant power Congress has is the control of the purse-strings as all spending must be approved by them However once re-elected
Barack Obama as confirmed by his willingness to do or say anything and his unscrupulous re-election tactics would not only threaten government
shutdowns but would deliberately withhold payments to those dependent on government support as a means of intimidating and forcing a Republican
controlled Congress to surrender to his demands thus neutering their ability to control the administration through spending constraints Further this administration has shown contempt for the courts by ignoring various court orders eg the Gulf of Mexico oil drilling moratorium as
well as stonewalling subpoenas and requests issued by Congress The Eric Holder Justice Department has become the epitome of corruption as part
of the most dishonest and deceitful administration in American history In a second term the arrogance of Barack Obama and his minions will
become more blatant as he will not have to be concerned with re-election
Who will be there to enforce the rule of law a Supreme Court ruling or the Constitution No one Barack Obama and his fellow-travelers will be
unchallenged as they run roughshod over the American people
Many Republicans and conservatives dissatisfied with the prospect of Mitt Romney as the nominee for president are instead focused on re-taking the
House and Senate That goal while worthy and necessary is meaningless unless Barack Obama is defeated The nation is not dealing with a person
of character and integrity but someone of single-minded purpose and overwhelming narcissism Judging by his actions words and deeds during his
first term he does not intend to work with Congress either Republican or Democrat in his second term but rather to force his radical agenda on the
American people through the power he has usurped or been granted
The governmental structure of the United States was set up by the founders in the hope that over the years only those people of high moral character
and integrity would assume the reins of power However knowing that was not always possible they dispersed power over three distinct and
independent branches as a check on each other
14
Obamas Second Term Transformation Plans (cont)
What they could not imagine is the surrender and abdication of its constitutional duty by the preeminent governmental branch the Congress to a
chief executive devoid of any character or integrity coupled with a judiciary essentially powerless to enforce the law when the chief executive ignores
them
Conservatives Libertarians the Republican Party and Mitt Romney must come to grips with this moment in time and their historical role in denying
Barack Obama and his minions their ultimate goal All resources must be directed at that end-game and not merely controlling Congress and the
various committee chairmanships

Winning the Youth Vote
Posted by Mindy Reifer 12pc on May 03 2012 middot Flag
After clearly indicating their strategic ploys to secure the women vote this election cycle Democrats are now sharpening their rhetoric aimed at reclaiming the youth vote President Obama directed his April campaigning towards college students focusing on college-loan rates and other university-related political issues
Since the 2008 election results were first analyzed the prominence of the youth vote has weighed heavily on both Democratic and Republican candidatesrsquo campaign decisions The popular myth circulating is that for Obamarsquos 2008 win the youth vote turned out in remarkably unprecedented numbers And all Obama has to do is continue this pattern to secure his
electoral victory
But that might be easier said than done this time around
First Obama did not in fact grow the youth vote very much and certainly not in unprecedented numbers What Obama actually did accomplish in 2008 was to turn the youth vote largely
away from Republicans securing a majority of votes from voters aged 18-29 The actual growth of the youth vote though was just 1
Posting on the Washington Postrsquos website on April 24 Chris Cillizza and Aaron Blakeat demonstrate that while political organizations claimed that Obamarsquos election was in part due to a more than 22 million youth voter turnout increase ldquoyoung voters comprised 18 percent of the electorate in 2008 a one-point improvement from their share of the electorate in 2004 2000
and 1996 but nowhere near the heights they reached in the 1980srdquo
Misrepresentation of Obamarsquos success at the polls led to many dishonest facts being promulgated to bolster the supposed turnout-increasing abilities of our president Even before the
finally tally in 2008 Heather Smith of Rock the Vote (as quoted by Melissa Dahl on MSNBCcom) said ldquoWe expected record turnout and that is what wersquore seeing right nowrdquo
Hindsight proved that it was not at all a record turnout certainly not when the 1980 and 1984 Reagan Revolution is considered but it was a record margin in favor of the Democratic nominee And this youth vote clobbering likely tilted the election in Obamarsquos favor Dahl says that ldquoyoung voters preferred Obama over John McCain by 68 percent to 30 percent mdash the
highest share of the youth vote obtained by any candidate since exit polls began reporting results by age in 1976 according to CIRCLE a non-partisan organizationrdquo
It is not only Obama and Democrats who are going after the youth vote At the same time that Obama was appealing to his prime target Romney was giving stump speeches about
student loans and college costs (In pure campaign-mode Obama demanded that Congress keep student loan rates low something that Republicans in Congress have also supported)
It remains to be seen if Obama will once again secure the youth vote or by what margin
This time around Republicans have a stronger platform to run on Obamarsquos record Statistics released by the Republican Study Committee on April 30 show that more than half of recent
college graduates are unemployed or underemployed In fact 85 of college graduates will be moving back home with their parents hardly the ideal goal of a college grad
Many of the youngest of 2008rsquos voters have now graduated college and are finding themselves enveloped in student debt and facing the harsh realities of the Obama recession And of
course the older end of the youth vote have now matured somewhat witnessing first-hand the destruction Obamarsquos policies have wrought on our economy and foreign image
And it is up to this very demographic to perhaps effect the biggest change in the election outcome this November But unfortunately youth voters are still favoring Obama over Romney by a strong margin strong enough to win him reelection An April 2012 Washington Post-ABC survey showed Obama leading Romney by 21 points among 18-29-year olds Romney is
correct in assuming he needs to appeal to the youth vote not just to grow the turnout but more importantly to urge deflections over to the Republicans side in order to secure the election
Romney needs to focus on the economy not just student loan rates He needs to remind young voters that they will need jobs to pay back their loans no matter how low interest rates remain And moving back home with Mom and Dad is no way to spend onersquos first year as a college graduate America needs to once again be a nation of unique unprecedented
economy opportunity and a 2012 ldquoReaganrdquo revolution is necessary to put the US back on track to prosperity

The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
December 9 2011
By Sara Noble
ldquoThe elective franchise if guarded as the ark of our safety will peaceably dissipate all combinations to subvert a Constitution dictated by the
wisdom and resting on the will of the peoplerdquo ~ Thomas Jefferson
While Americans are focused on the election the Progressive wing of the Democratic Party funded by two eccentric businessmen and a George Soros son are stealthily orchestrating the decimation of the voting process and states rights through the National Popular Vote Compact (NPV)
The NPV is a popular sound bite that will do the opposite of what it is portrayed to do ndash make each Americanrsquos vote count It does not do that
because it keeps the electoral college but misuses it What it actually does is create a ldquoforced mergerrdquo between heavily populated states and less populated states
Currently moving at a rapid pace the NPV is a state-by-state initiative that will force states to allocate their electoral votes to the winner of
the national popular vote rather than the winner of the popular vote in their state
NPV will greatly reduce the power of most states in that the highly populated states will be able to gain the electoral votes and in fact 11 states could decide the Presidential election
California Texas New York Florida Illinois Pennsylvania Ohio Michigan Georgia North Carolina and New Jersey have 57 of the votes cast
in 2008 and together they have 270 electoral votes the amount necessary to win the election Do you want these states to decide who is President
while other states have no say
Is this what the Founding Fathers wanted An election based on demographics and geographics
Why is the current structure of the electoral college so important Our Founding Fathers believed that the state by state disbursed system
maintained the sovereignty of the states and disallowed Federalism The containment of ldquomischiefrdquo or voter fraud of the ACORN type is contained within states instead of being spread nationally The electoral college provides balance and firewalls against voter fraud
Do you believe all states should be purple and not red or blue Then you do NOT want the NPV Supporters of the NPV claim it will favor
Republicans in that there are more underutilized Republican votes than Democratic votes which I doubt since the heavily populated states are predominantly liberal Whether this is true or not does not matter
17
The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
(cont)
We should not favor one side or the other in the United States of America
The initiative has been approved by half the states necessary to pass it The states that have approved it equal 70 electoral votes and only 138 are needed for it to pass It is well on its way to becoming law
NPV circumvents the Constitution by allowing individual states to change the Constitution without an amendment However the compact clause of
the Constitution does not allow any state to ldquoenter into any Agreement or Compact with another Staterdquo Liberal states like California could join with
Illinois New York and another 8 other liberal states forming a super bloc that would give all their electoral votes to the winner forming the bloc that could take the election
Article V specifically states that the Constitution must be amended ldquono State without its Consent shall be deprived of its equal Suffrage in the Senaterdquo The NPV as structured will immediately take effect without an amendment and it will probably be in time for the 2012 election
NPV has bipartisan support and the opposition should be bipartisan as well It is not a partisan issue it is about states rights and the power of each individual guaranteed by the electoral college
NPV will have many unwanted side effects The states that decide the election will probably be the states that receive the federal dollars because
their votes count They will likely be the only states that candidates will visit
Another problematic side effect reared its ugly head in my own Congressional district on Long Island Our congressman Tim Bishop received most
of his funding from New York City and other areas outside Long Island including as far away as California NPV will encourage the influx of money from outside the key 11 states It will be lobbying on steroids
Then there is the nationalization of voter fraud Some states require proof of citizenship photo IDrsquos no IDrsquos but NPV will eliminate that choice and the containment of fraud that states provide
I personally experienced absentee voter fraud For example one woman voted from Canada and used the address of a local middle school The courts
in NY let these votes stand Even the dead people we found were counted because you only have a few days to prove they are dead and courts want a
death certificate which is hard to get on hundreds of people in a matter of days So in NY dead people vote I happen to know of a number of illegal
aliens who voted as well
In Kansas the Democratic primary of Rizzo vs Royster shows the seriousness of voter fraud A group in support of Rizzo brought in 50 Somali nationals to vote Rizzo won by one vote
ACORN often mobilizes aliens to vote
In Mississippi 23 counties had more people registered to vote than were alive
Examples are endless though some would have us believe fraud is not a widespread problem
There is the costly and lengthy litigation which will ensue if NPV passes Examples are -
What happens constitutionally if a state in the NPV doesnrsquot like the candidate they are forced to give their electoral votes to and pulls out of the
compact though they are not free to do so
NPV does not meet equal protection under the 14th amendment for the states who do not sign on to the NPV
The compact clause Article I suggests it needs congressional approval
Article II delegates power to the states which the NPV overrides
Administratively a non-qualified person not even on the ballot could win it will force states with solid voting requirements to go with those who
allow rampant fraud if they have higher population density the individuality of states that includes early voter registration felons voting voting by mail et cetera will dissolve into the requirements of the heavily populated states Close elections will cause inevitable and lengthy delays
There is even a question of whether some states will be able to vote under the compact
18
The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
(cont)
Litigation will take a long time and could end up leaving the incumbent President in place for months or years
NPV will -
Federalize the vote
Destroy state sovereignty in the Presidential election
Circumvent the Constitution
Disenfranchise voters by giving 11 states the power to decide the election
It will ignite endless litigation
Reduce voting to the lowest common denominator
Give a handful of states supremacy
NPV is a ldquoone size fits allrdquo and it forces many states to abandon the voting procedures and policies that make them unique It focuses on the end
results and sacrifices process

NOTE One of our very own Republican Missouri Legislators introduced a bill in the last legislative session in favor of the National Popular Vote and to eliminate the Electoral College Dwight Scharnhorst (93rd District before re-districting) explained that he did not know that what this bill was about and that is why he introduced it Unfortunately MrScharnhorst is now running unopposed in the newly re-districted 88th District

GETTING INVOLVED IN YOUR PRECINCT
WHY Because we believe ldquoall politics is localrdquo
Become involved at the local level to restore conservative values and principles that will then ldquotrickle UPrdquo to all levels of government
MOPP is not the first to utilize this strategy ndash Phyllis Schlafly implemented the ldquoprecinct strategyrdquo to defeat the ERA 30+ years ago
We believe that Missouri needed to join the ranks of other states with similar efforts including Texas Florida Pennsylvania Nevada and
Utah
We want to encourage Missourians across the State to work in their own communities and counties to make a differencehellip
WHAT MOPPrsquos 4 pronged strategy
1 Key element (hence the name Missouri Precinct Project) Identify the 40-50 of the unfilled precincttownship
committee positions in their county that go unfilled (many of our members have filed to fill these positions across the
state ndash ie St Louis County stat 35 new)
2 Get out the Conservative vote ndash
a MOPP encourages its members to utilize our database (we are in the final stage of determining which program we
will be using) to canvass their neighborhood to identify and register conservative voters educate voters on issues
and candidates and get them to the polls on election day
b MOPP also partners with ldquoChampion The Votehellipencouraging our volunteers to become Champions in the
Champion the Vote program to register unregistered Christian voters (in Missouri in 2008 there was only a
4000 difference between the 2 presidential candidateshellipthatrsquos a pretty close margin but yet there are
approximately 150000 unregistered Christians in the State)
Go here to become a ldquoChampionrdquo httpchampionthevotecomheadquartersmissouri
3 Encourage becoming a poll worker to help prevent voter fraud
4 Build and maintain a database in order to form a more effective coalition united voice for Conservatives across the State

IN SUMMARY If we are ever to get control of our government and change the type of people we get into office and the control that big-
money currently brings we must get directly and actively involved at the grassroots level in the two-party system
It is not going to be easy and it is not going to change overnight But without this approach we are simply reshuffling the
chairs on the deck of the Titanic Do we just want the furniture to look better before we crash into the iceberg or do we
want to change the shiprsquos course to prevent it from sinking
Mission Statement
Restore Constitutional principles and conservative values by engaging conservatives in grassroots politics

ABOUT SCSSJR 51 by Frieda Keough
SCSSJR 51 - This constitutional amendment if approved by the voters would modify the composition of the Appellate Judicial Commission and the selection process for judges to the Supreme Court and the Court of Appeals This act increases the number of individuals that the Appellate Judicial Commission nominates for vacancies in the Supreme Court or Court of Appeals from three to four Currently the Appellate Judicial Commission consists of seven members as follows one Supreme Court judge a member of the bar from each appellate district elected by members of the bar in that district and a non-bar member citizen from each appellate district appointed by the Governor This act replaces the judge member of the commission with an additional member appointed by the Governor Members appointed by the Governor no longer must be non-bar members The Governor will appoint one member from each appellate district and one from the state at large The appointed members will serve terms of four years Their terms will be staggered so that a Governor will appoint two when taking office and two during the middle of his or her term The Supreme Court will appoint a former Supreme Court or Court of Appeals judge to serve as a nonvoting member of the commission The former judge cannot have been removed for cause or failed to be retained in a retention election The changes to the Appellate Judicial Commission will take effect on January 15 2013 If this is approved by the voters the governor will be accountable for the judges appointed not a faceless group of lawyers

The Leftrsquos National Vote Fraud Strategy Exposed Posted By James Simpson On May 7 2012
reprinted from httpwwwaimorgspecial-reportthe-lefts-national-vote-fraud-strategy-exposedprint
This report reveals the Leftrsquos vote fraud strategy for the 2012 elections Like a KGB operation it is thorough multi-faceted and redundant It has overt and covert illegal and legal elements the
latter of which are designed at least in part to facilitate illegal activities later It is a deliberate premeditated comprehensive plan to win the 2012 presidential election at all costs and is in
keeping with the organizational methods associations and ethics of the Community-Organizer-in-Chief Barack Obama
The Left seeks fundamental structural change to our entire form of government In keeping with their amoral means-justifies-ends philosophy they will register any voters dead or alive legal
or illegal who will then vote as many times as possible in order to establish a ldquopermanent progressive majority [1]rdquo As two New York Democrats recently caught in a vote fraud scandal told [2]police ldquovoter fraud is an accepted way of winning electionshelliprdquo
Low income individuals are the perfect dupes for this strategy An expanding welfare state makes them increasingly dependent on government benefits a development that guarantees their vote for liberal-left candidates At the same time people with marginal attachment to society may be less inclined to report illegal activity at the pollsmdashor actually participate The ldquovictimrdquo
narrative promoted in popular culture and press may even encourage such behavior Meanwhile a growing tax burden and public debt suck private enterprise drymdashpushing ever more people
onto the dole
Politicians of both parties are not above engaging in vote fraud But this kind of corruption is relegated to individual campaigns or areas where corrupt political establishments have been able to
develop unchallenged It is not a systematic component of overall national strategy as it is with the Left
This strategy has been under development for decades They have constructed an entire industry devoted to this task and pursue a multifaceted strategy to accomplish it
1 Swamp election officials with overwhelming numbers of registrations at the last possible minute a huge proportion of which are deliberately fraudulent in order to create systematic chaos This accomplishes numerous goals
Makes verification of registrations difficult given the small size and limited budgets of state and local election offices
Provides multiple opportunities for vote fraud
Throws the entire voting process into question providing pretext for lawsuits where concessions may be obtained from election officials
When election officials challenge registrations they are accused of ldquovoter suppressionrdquo This in turn serves complementary goals
o Charge of ldquovoter suppressionrdquo reinforces the Leftrsquos narrative about America as an oppressive ldquoracistrdquo country
o Publicity and lawsuits intimidate election officials who settle on terms favorable to the Left
2 Activists sue state authorities for ldquovoter suppressionrdquo creating further chaos and pressuring them to become de facto taxpayer-funded voter registration operations
3 Eric Holderrsquos Justice Department tacitly supports voter intimidation tactics sues states and backs private lawsuits and resists reform as ldquovoter suppressionrdquo
4 Leftist echo chamber discredits allegations of vote fraud supports ldquosuppressionrdquo theme and promotes advantageous legislation
The ultimate goal is a systematized taxpayer-funded voting machinery that will guarantee maximum participation from the Leftrsquos voting demographic while undermining the ability to manage
elections and prevent fraud

The Leftrsquos National Vote Fraud Strategy Exposed (cont)
Key to understanding the Leftrsquos vote-fraud strategy is the community organizing group ACORN [3] ACORN has become synonymous with corruption complicity [4] in the subprime mortgage crisis [4] and especially vote fraud [5]
ACORN and its voter registration arm Project Vote [6] hire marginal and unskilled workers at very low rates and use incentive bonuses or quotas to encourage them to collect as many voter
registrations as possible [7] The resulting flood of registrations are fraught with duplicates errors and omissions and a large number are overtly fraudulent including names like ldquoDonald Duckrdquo ldquoMickey Mouserdquo ldquoTony Romordquo of the Dallas Cowboys [8] etc [9][2] [10] According to Matthew Vadum [11] the senior editor at Capital Research Center a total of 400000 bogus ACORN
registrations were thrown out in 2008 alone
ACORN was supposedly disbanded in 2010 but resurrected itself under a slew of new names Former ACORN President Bertha Lewis bragged [12] that they created ldquohellip18 bulletproof community-
organizing Frankensteinshelliprdquo These are reproduced in the table below Most of these groups occupy former ACORN offices many with the same staff

A MESSAGE FROMhellip
NEWS FROM THE TRENCHES ndash FLORIDA
Champion Tom Coutre and his wife helped set up 25 Voter Registration Drives in 25 different churches in Sumter Marion and Lake Counties prior to Floridas Presidential Primary (PPP) With the help of volunteers from the
churches they distributed about 2000 voter registration forms
Tom reported that the churches with the highest rate of success did these two things
1 The Pastors played the Champion the Vote video at their services and according to Tom people were
shocked by the statistics in the video
2 The Pastors said something like this from the pulpitIf you are not registered to vote or fail to vote you
are not doing your duty as a Christian or as an American citizen They then directed the congregation to pick up a voter registration form and a voter guide after the service
Tom said that in the end registering new voters may not have been the most important result of the effort Tom
believes that the real importance of the drives was that they raised awareness of the power of the primary He
reported that Sumter County Florida had the highest percentage turnout for the PPP While he does not attribute
this directly to the voter registration efforts the Supervisor of Elections said that during the drives they
experienced an unusual number of new voter registrations in which voters changed their party affiliation Let us know what youre doing to champion the vote in your community and beyond

Analysis Conservatives used tactics of the left in Wisconsin win
Nick CareyReuters
657 pm CDT June 6 2012
MADISON Wisconsin (Reuters) - Activists with the conservative Tea Party movement say they owe a lot to their schooling in left-wing
community organizing tactics for the historic Republican victory over the Democrats and their union allies in the Wisconsin recall election
While the Democrats said huge campaign spending by conservatives supporters of Republican Scott Walker allowed him on Tuesday to
become the first governor in US history to survive a recall election the Republicans point to their grassroots get-out-the-vote work as more
important
Advertising can only do so much said Ned Ryun head of the national conservative group American Majority whose sister group American
Majority Action worked closely with Wisconsin activists But talking to someone face to face is a game changer
Combine that personal contact with energizing a mass movement of door knockers and the latest phone software technology to track voters and
you have many of the ingredients for the victory they say
The conservative activists have literally taken a page out of a left-wing radicals guide to organizing - as many have read the late Saul Alinskys
Rules for Radicals
Born in 1909 in Chicago Alinsky - who died in 1972 - began his organizing career in the citys poor Back of the Yards district and is widely
considered the founder of modern community organizing
There was no manual for organizing on the right so we adapted it to the conservative cause said Brown of We the People of the Republic a
Tea Party group based in Madison Wisconsin The left has been good at it for 100 years so what better place to start
Labor unions and liberal activists forced the recall election against Walker because of his successful effort last year to curb the collective
bargaining powers of public sector workers in the Midwestern US state famous for its beer cheese and Harley-Davidsonmotorcycles
The unions with a reputation for excelling at grass-roots organizing not only failed to oust Walker - but he beat his Democratic challenger
Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett by an even bigger margin than his 2010 gubernatorial victory
Out-of-state conservatives flooded Wisconsin with tens of millions of dollars in campaign cash in an election seen as a barometer of the
American political mood ahead of the November 6 presidential election Walker outspend Barrett by more than 7-to-1
Leading US conservative donors made donations to boost Walker
Luke Hilgemann Wisconsin state director of Americans for Prosperity which is backed by conservative billionaire brothers David
and Charles Koch said the group coordinated a network of some 100000 local activists Most of their efforts centered on 17 key counties
Money alone doesnt win elections In the three weeks before the election Walker benefited from a disciplined get-out-the-vote drive mounted
by people associated with the Tea Party movement which reviles President Barack Obama Wisconsin could be a key battleground state in the
November 6 election as Obama seeks re-election against Republican Mitt Romney
A lot of the campaign cash bankrolled a wave of pro-Walker advertising Exit polls taken on Tuesday however indicated the ads may not have
been a decisive factor nearly 90 percent of voters say they chose their candidate before the ad barrage
Not only is the Tea Party alive and kicking those guys ran a great get-out-the-vote campaign said Ford OConnell a Republican strategist and
chairman of the CivicForum PAC political group They have given away the secret recipe for what could win the election for Mitt Romney
This is a paradigm shift added Matt Kibbe president of FreedomWorks a conservative group chaired by former Republican House of
Representatives Majority leader Dick Armey that provides training and resources to Tea Party activists If the grassroots embrace a cause
they make all the difference

Analysis Conservatives used tactics of the left in Wisconsin win (cont)
UNION FAULTS
Analysts said Democrats and unions made fundamental mistakes in Wisconsin Instead of uniting behind one candidate to challenge Walker
Democrats waged a divisive primary and most unions did not back the eventual winner Tom Barrett who has had his own disputes with unions
as mayor of Milwaukee
The Democrats lost valuable time and money while Walker was traveling the country collecting millions of dollars to back his election effort
They also may have miscalculated in choosing Barrett who previously had lost to Walker in 2010
If they are going to recall a governor it hardly makes sense to try to challenge him with a candidate who lost against him last time said Marick
Masters a professor of business and director of labor studies at Wayne State University in Detroit
On Wednesday top labor leaders such as AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka and Teamsters General President Jim Hoffa were not
acknowledging any mistakes publicly and dismissed the idea that events in Wisconsin had a broad implications for the labor movements future
Walker needed every last dime and every last divisive TV ad to maintain a weakened hold on his office Trumka said
Success in Wisconsin this year came with the aid of technology such as a new get-out-the-vote app called Gravity that American Majority Action
provided free to Tea Party activists as conservatives targeted like-minded voters
Prior to the election Tea Party activists reported encountering voters who backed Walker but would be out of state on the day of the election So
activists helped them fill out absentee ballots
We would have lost those votes if we hadnt showed up said Matt Batzel state director of American Majority Action Thats what this is all
about
Note The above article documents how the grassroots played an integral role in the Wisconsin recall A new ldquoget out the voterdquo app called ldquoGravityrdquohellipand groups like American Majority and True the Vote were all part of a unified effort with many other grassroots organizations both local and national to help achieve victory The sophistication of these programs coupled with the manpower and passion of the grassroots movement was a ldquowinningrdquo combination These same tools and strategies will be showcased at our MOPP ldquoWinning in Novemberrdquo seminar that will take place on July 14 2012 We hope you make plans to attend and join us to learn how you can utilize these tools for victory in November

November Is a Plebiscite On the American Revolution
REPRINTED FROM Tuesday May 01 2012
Election Day 2012 will not be a presidential election It will be a plebiscite
Americans will not only be voting for a president (and a House and a third of the Senate) They will be participating in a plebiscite on the definition of America If Americans re-elect the Democrat Barack Obama they will have announced that America should be like Western European countries -- governed by left-wing values Americans will have decided that Americas value system -- Liberty In God We Trust E Pluribus Unum -- should be replaced The election in November is therefore a plebiscite on the American Revolution The usual description of presidential elections -- the most important in our lifetime -- is true this time In fact it may be the most important election since the Civil War and possibly since Americas founding
The left knows what is at stake And the most left-wing president in American history knows what is at stake Candidate Obama announced shortly before the 2008 election We are five days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America He described the lefts aim perfectly to fundamentally transform America It seeks to replace Liberty In God We Trust and E Pluribus Unum That is what fundamentally transform means In fact those words are proof that American values and leftist values are fundamentally opposed to one another
The right on the other hand seeks to maintain Americas values Conservatives want to improve America but as its name implies conservatism seeks to conserve not transform Liberty means first and foremost limited government -- because bigger government means less individual liberty In God We Trust means that America must be rooted in Creator-based values There are no inalienable rights if no rights derive from God And E Pluribus Unum means the assumption of an American identity by all citizens regardless of their racial ethnic or national background
The left seeks to replace Liberty with Equality Material inequality is the great evil and if individual liberty needs to be sacrificed to attain equality so be it Creator-based values are to be replaced by government-based values God-fearing is to be replaced by State-fearing God must be removed from schools and wherever else the left can succeed in doing so E Pluribus Unum is to be replaced by multiculturalism For leftism the very words American identity conjure up chauvinism if not fascism
For these reasons this election is not just a choice between a Democrat and a Republican It is between Americanism and leftism This does not mean that left-wing Americans are un-American or unpatriotic -- or that they do not love their country The conflict between Americanism and leftism is between ideas not between decent and indecent people But it is an unfortunate fact of life that decent people can believe in bad ideas If this were not so few of the greatest evils would ever have occurred
If this election is indeed a plebiscite on America Mitt Romney cannot campaign solely or even primarily on the state of the economy First what if the economy even slightly improves What happens then to Governor Romneys appeal Moreover relying for ones success on the suffering of ones fellow Americans is morally as well as politically perilous Second Americans want to vote for more than an economic Mr Fix-It as desirable as such a person is
So too Mr Romney should not overly personalize his campaign He is running against Obama but Barack Obama is not the biggest issue The lefts desire to transform America is the biggest issue Barack Obama is to be opposed because he is a man of the left Mitt Romney and the entire Republican Party need to describe this election as the plebiscite on America that it is The most urgent task in American life is to make clear and then repeat as often as possible leftist values and American values are in conflict
Instead of asking Are you better off than you were three years ago Every Republican needs to ask every day Do you want to fundamentally transform America If they do Barack Obama is their man If they dont Mitt Romney is
NOTE The Missouri Caucuses are completed A lot of people got involved this year and were very passionate about the various
candidates Not everybody is happy One even hears that voting for the supposed nominee Mitt Romney is no different than Barack Obama So why bother to vote We should all remember that the next President will probably be in a position to nominate up to four Supreme Court justices So keep this in mind when you make your decisions about who to support Current age of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg - 79 years Stephen Breyer - 73 years
Anthony Kennedy - 75 years Antonin Scalia - 76 tears We cannot afford to have a President Obama replace any Supreme Court Justices but especially not a Antonin Scalia Especially if we do not have at least 41 Senators that would be willing to stand up and vote no for any Supreme Court nominee that does not have true constitutional credentials Supposedly Mitt Romney has appointed a group of individuals to review possible candidates for the Supreme Court This is encouraging especially since the man heading this group is Robert Borck one of the best constitutional jurists this country has ever produced

Obamas Second Term Transformation Plans By Steve McCann
The 2012 election has often been described as the most pivotal since 1860 This statement is not hyperbole If Barack Obama is re-elected the
United States will never be the same nor will it be able to re-capture its once lofty status as the most dominant nation in the history of mankind The overwhelming majority of Americans do not understand that Obamas first term was dedicated to putting in place executive power to enable him
and the administration to fulfill the campaign promise of transforming America in his second term regardless of which political party controls
Congress That is why his re-election team is virtually ignoring the plight of incumbent or prospective Democratic Party office holders
The most significant accomplishment of Obamas first term is to make Congress irrelevant Under the myopic and blindly loyal leadership of Harry
Reid and Nancy Pelosi the Democrats have succeeded in creating an imperial and in a second term a potential dictatorial presidency
During the first two years of the Obama administration when the Democrats overwhelming controlled both Houses of Congress and the media was in
an Obama worshipping stupor a myriad of laws were passed and actions taken which transferred virtually unlimited power to the executive branch The birth of multi-thousand page laws was not an aberration This tactic was adopted so the bureaucracy controlled by Obama appointees would
have sole discretion in interpreting vaguely written laws and enforcing thousands of pages of regulations they and not Congress would subsequently
write
For example in the 2700 pages of ObamaCare there are more than 2500 references to the Secretary of Health and Human Services There are more
than 700 instances when he or she is instructed that they shall do something and more than 200 times when they may take at their sole discretion
some form of regulatory action On 139 occasions the law mentions that the Secretary determines In essence one person appointed by and
reporting to the president will be in charge of the health care of 310 million Americans once ObamaCare is fully operational in 2014
The same is true in the 2319 pages of the Dodd-Frank Financial Reform Act which confers nearly unlimited power on various agencies to control by
fiat the nations financial banking and investment sectors The bill also creates new agencies such as the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau not
subject to any oversight by Congress This overall process was repeated numerous times with other legislation all with the intent of granting
unfettered power to the executive branch controlled Barack Obama and his radical associates
Additionally the Obama administration has through its unilaterally determined rule making and regulatory powers created laws out of whole cloth
The Environmental Protection Agency on a near daily basis issues new regulations clearly out of their purview in order to modify and change
environmental laws previously passed and to impose a radical green agenda never approved by Congress The same is true of the Energy and Interior
Departments among many others
None of these extra-constitutional actions have been challenged by Congress The left in America knows this usurpation of power is nearly
impossible to reverse unless stopped in its early stages
It is clearly the mindset of this administration and its appointees that Congress is merely a nuisance and can be ignored after they were able to take
full advantage of the useful idiots in the Democrat controlled House and Senate in 2009-2010 and the Democrat Senate in the current Congress Additionally Barack Obama knows after his re-election a Republican controlled House and Senate will not be able to enact any legislation to roll
back the power previously granted to the Executive Branch or usurped by them His veto will not be overridden as there will always be at least 145
Democratic members of the House or 34 in the Senate in agreement with or intimidated by an administration more than willing to use Chicago style
political tactics
The stalemate between the Executive and Legislative Branches will inure to the benefit of Barack Obama and his fellow leftists The most significant power Congress has is the control of the purse-strings as all spending must be approved by them However once re-elected
Barack Obama as confirmed by his willingness to do or say anything and his unscrupulous re-election tactics would not only threaten government
shutdowns but would deliberately withhold payments to those dependent on government support as a means of intimidating and forcing a Republican
controlled Congress to surrender to his demands thus neutering their ability to control the administration through spending constraints Further this administration has shown contempt for the courts by ignoring various court orders eg the Gulf of Mexico oil drilling moratorium as
well as stonewalling subpoenas and requests issued by Congress The Eric Holder Justice Department has become the epitome of corruption as part
of the most dishonest and deceitful administration in American history In a second term the arrogance of Barack Obama and his minions will
become more blatant as he will not have to be concerned with re-election
Who will be there to enforce the rule of law a Supreme Court ruling or the Constitution No one Barack Obama and his fellow-travelers will be
unchallenged as they run roughshod over the American people
Many Republicans and conservatives dissatisfied with the prospect of Mitt Romney as the nominee for president are instead focused on re-taking the
House and Senate That goal while worthy and necessary is meaningless unless Barack Obama is defeated The nation is not dealing with a person
of character and integrity but someone of single-minded purpose and overwhelming narcissism Judging by his actions words and deeds during his
first term he does not intend to work with Congress either Republican or Democrat in his second term but rather to force his radical agenda on the
American people through the power he has usurped or been granted
The governmental structure of the United States was set up by the founders in the hope that over the years only those people of high moral character
and integrity would assume the reins of power However knowing that was not always possible they dispersed power over three distinct and
independent branches as a check on each other
14
Obamas Second Term Transformation Plans (cont)
What they could not imagine is the surrender and abdication of its constitutional duty by the preeminent governmental branch the Congress to a
chief executive devoid of any character or integrity coupled with a judiciary essentially powerless to enforce the law when the chief executive ignores
them
Conservatives Libertarians the Republican Party and Mitt Romney must come to grips with this moment in time and their historical role in denying
Barack Obama and his minions their ultimate goal All resources must be directed at that end-game and not merely controlling Congress and the
various committee chairmanships

Winning the Youth Vote
Posted by Mindy Reifer 12pc on May 03 2012 middot Flag
After clearly indicating their strategic ploys to secure the women vote this election cycle Democrats are now sharpening their rhetoric aimed at reclaiming the youth vote President Obama directed his April campaigning towards college students focusing on college-loan rates and other university-related political issues
Since the 2008 election results were first analyzed the prominence of the youth vote has weighed heavily on both Democratic and Republican candidatesrsquo campaign decisions The popular myth circulating is that for Obamarsquos 2008 win the youth vote turned out in remarkably unprecedented numbers And all Obama has to do is continue this pattern to secure his
electoral victory
But that might be easier said than done this time around
First Obama did not in fact grow the youth vote very much and certainly not in unprecedented numbers What Obama actually did accomplish in 2008 was to turn the youth vote largely
away from Republicans securing a majority of votes from voters aged 18-29 The actual growth of the youth vote though was just 1
Posting on the Washington Postrsquos website on April 24 Chris Cillizza and Aaron Blakeat demonstrate that while political organizations claimed that Obamarsquos election was in part due to a more than 22 million youth voter turnout increase ldquoyoung voters comprised 18 percent of the electorate in 2008 a one-point improvement from their share of the electorate in 2004 2000
and 1996 but nowhere near the heights they reached in the 1980srdquo
Misrepresentation of Obamarsquos success at the polls led to many dishonest facts being promulgated to bolster the supposed turnout-increasing abilities of our president Even before the
finally tally in 2008 Heather Smith of Rock the Vote (as quoted by Melissa Dahl on MSNBCcom) said ldquoWe expected record turnout and that is what wersquore seeing right nowrdquo
Hindsight proved that it was not at all a record turnout certainly not when the 1980 and 1984 Reagan Revolution is considered but it was a record margin in favor of the Democratic nominee And this youth vote clobbering likely tilted the election in Obamarsquos favor Dahl says that ldquoyoung voters preferred Obama over John McCain by 68 percent to 30 percent mdash the
highest share of the youth vote obtained by any candidate since exit polls began reporting results by age in 1976 according to CIRCLE a non-partisan organizationrdquo
It is not only Obama and Democrats who are going after the youth vote At the same time that Obama was appealing to his prime target Romney was giving stump speeches about
student loans and college costs (In pure campaign-mode Obama demanded that Congress keep student loan rates low something that Republicans in Congress have also supported)
It remains to be seen if Obama will once again secure the youth vote or by what margin
This time around Republicans have a stronger platform to run on Obamarsquos record Statistics released by the Republican Study Committee on April 30 show that more than half of recent
college graduates are unemployed or underemployed In fact 85 of college graduates will be moving back home with their parents hardly the ideal goal of a college grad
Many of the youngest of 2008rsquos voters have now graduated college and are finding themselves enveloped in student debt and facing the harsh realities of the Obama recession And of
course the older end of the youth vote have now matured somewhat witnessing first-hand the destruction Obamarsquos policies have wrought on our economy and foreign image
And it is up to this very demographic to perhaps effect the biggest change in the election outcome this November But unfortunately youth voters are still favoring Obama over Romney by a strong margin strong enough to win him reelection An April 2012 Washington Post-ABC survey showed Obama leading Romney by 21 points among 18-29-year olds Romney is
correct in assuming he needs to appeal to the youth vote not just to grow the turnout but more importantly to urge deflections over to the Republicans side in order to secure the election
Romney needs to focus on the economy not just student loan rates He needs to remind young voters that they will need jobs to pay back their loans no matter how low interest rates remain And moving back home with Mom and Dad is no way to spend onersquos first year as a college graduate America needs to once again be a nation of unique unprecedented
economy opportunity and a 2012 ldquoReaganrdquo revolution is necessary to put the US back on track to prosperity

The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
December 9 2011
By Sara Noble
ldquoThe elective franchise if guarded as the ark of our safety will peaceably dissipate all combinations to subvert a Constitution dictated by the
wisdom and resting on the will of the peoplerdquo ~ Thomas Jefferson
While Americans are focused on the election the Progressive wing of the Democratic Party funded by two eccentric businessmen and a George Soros son are stealthily orchestrating the decimation of the voting process and states rights through the National Popular Vote Compact (NPV)
The NPV is a popular sound bite that will do the opposite of what it is portrayed to do ndash make each Americanrsquos vote count It does not do that
because it keeps the electoral college but misuses it What it actually does is create a ldquoforced mergerrdquo between heavily populated states and less populated states
Currently moving at a rapid pace the NPV is a state-by-state initiative that will force states to allocate their electoral votes to the winner of
the national popular vote rather than the winner of the popular vote in their state
NPV will greatly reduce the power of most states in that the highly populated states will be able to gain the electoral votes and in fact 11 states could decide the Presidential election
California Texas New York Florida Illinois Pennsylvania Ohio Michigan Georgia North Carolina and New Jersey have 57 of the votes cast
in 2008 and together they have 270 electoral votes the amount necessary to win the election Do you want these states to decide who is President
while other states have no say
Is this what the Founding Fathers wanted An election based on demographics and geographics
Why is the current structure of the electoral college so important Our Founding Fathers believed that the state by state disbursed system
maintained the sovereignty of the states and disallowed Federalism The containment of ldquomischiefrdquo or voter fraud of the ACORN type is contained within states instead of being spread nationally The electoral college provides balance and firewalls against voter fraud
Do you believe all states should be purple and not red or blue Then you do NOT want the NPV Supporters of the NPV claim it will favor
Republicans in that there are more underutilized Republican votes than Democratic votes which I doubt since the heavily populated states are predominantly liberal Whether this is true or not does not matter
17
The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
(cont)
We should not favor one side or the other in the United States of America
The initiative has been approved by half the states necessary to pass it The states that have approved it equal 70 electoral votes and only 138 are needed for it to pass It is well on its way to becoming law
NPV circumvents the Constitution by allowing individual states to change the Constitution without an amendment However the compact clause of
the Constitution does not allow any state to ldquoenter into any Agreement or Compact with another Staterdquo Liberal states like California could join with
Illinois New York and another 8 other liberal states forming a super bloc that would give all their electoral votes to the winner forming the bloc that could take the election
Article V specifically states that the Constitution must be amended ldquono State without its Consent shall be deprived of its equal Suffrage in the Senaterdquo The NPV as structured will immediately take effect without an amendment and it will probably be in time for the 2012 election
NPV has bipartisan support and the opposition should be bipartisan as well It is not a partisan issue it is about states rights and the power of each individual guaranteed by the electoral college
NPV will have many unwanted side effects The states that decide the election will probably be the states that receive the federal dollars because
their votes count They will likely be the only states that candidates will visit
Another problematic side effect reared its ugly head in my own Congressional district on Long Island Our congressman Tim Bishop received most
of his funding from New York City and other areas outside Long Island including as far away as California NPV will encourage the influx of money from outside the key 11 states It will be lobbying on steroids
Then there is the nationalization of voter fraud Some states require proof of citizenship photo IDrsquos no IDrsquos but NPV will eliminate that choice and the containment of fraud that states provide
I personally experienced absentee voter fraud For example one woman voted from Canada and used the address of a local middle school The courts
in NY let these votes stand Even the dead people we found were counted because you only have a few days to prove they are dead and courts want a
death certificate which is hard to get on hundreds of people in a matter of days So in NY dead people vote I happen to know of a number of illegal
aliens who voted as well
In Kansas the Democratic primary of Rizzo vs Royster shows the seriousness of voter fraud A group in support of Rizzo brought in 50 Somali nationals to vote Rizzo won by one vote
ACORN often mobilizes aliens to vote
In Mississippi 23 counties had more people registered to vote than were alive
Examples are endless though some would have us believe fraud is not a widespread problem
There is the costly and lengthy litigation which will ensue if NPV passes Examples are -
What happens constitutionally if a state in the NPV doesnrsquot like the candidate they are forced to give their electoral votes to and pulls out of the
compact though they are not free to do so
NPV does not meet equal protection under the 14th amendment for the states who do not sign on to the NPV
The compact clause Article I suggests it needs congressional approval
Article II delegates power to the states which the NPV overrides
Administratively a non-qualified person not even on the ballot could win it will force states with solid voting requirements to go with those who
allow rampant fraud if they have higher population density the individuality of states that includes early voter registration felons voting voting by mail et cetera will dissolve into the requirements of the heavily populated states Close elections will cause inevitable and lengthy delays
There is even a question of whether some states will be able to vote under the compact
18
The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
(cont)
Litigation will take a long time and could end up leaving the incumbent President in place for months or years
NPV will -
Federalize the vote
Destroy state sovereignty in the Presidential election
Circumvent the Constitution
Disenfranchise voters by giving 11 states the power to decide the election
It will ignite endless litigation
Reduce voting to the lowest common denominator
Give a handful of states supremacy
NPV is a ldquoone size fits allrdquo and it forces many states to abandon the voting procedures and policies that make them unique It focuses on the end
results and sacrifices process

NOTE One of our very own Republican Missouri Legislators introduced a bill in the last legislative session in favor of the National Popular Vote and to eliminate the Electoral College Dwight Scharnhorst (93rd District before re-districting) explained that he did not know that what this bill was about and that is why he introduced it Unfortunately MrScharnhorst is now running unopposed in the newly re-districted 88th District

GETTING INVOLVED IN YOUR PRECINCT
WHY Because we believe ldquoall politics is localrdquo
Become involved at the local level to restore conservative values and principles that will then ldquotrickle UPrdquo to all levels of government
MOPP is not the first to utilize this strategy ndash Phyllis Schlafly implemented the ldquoprecinct strategyrdquo to defeat the ERA 30+ years ago
We believe that Missouri needed to join the ranks of other states with similar efforts including Texas Florida Pennsylvania Nevada and
Utah
We want to encourage Missourians across the State to work in their own communities and counties to make a differencehellip
WHAT MOPPrsquos 4 pronged strategy
1 Key element (hence the name Missouri Precinct Project) Identify the 40-50 of the unfilled precincttownship
committee positions in their county that go unfilled (many of our members have filed to fill these positions across the
state ndash ie St Louis County stat 35 new)
2 Get out the Conservative vote ndash
a MOPP encourages its members to utilize our database (we are in the final stage of determining which program we
will be using) to canvass their neighborhood to identify and register conservative voters educate voters on issues
and candidates and get them to the polls on election day
b MOPP also partners with ldquoChampion The Votehellipencouraging our volunteers to become Champions in the

IN SUMMARY If we are ever to get control of our government and change the type of people we get into office and the control that big-
money currently brings we must get directly and actively involved at the grassroots level in the two-party system
It is not going to be easy and it is not going to change overnight But without this approach we are simply reshuffling the
chairs on the deck of the Titanic Do we just want the furniture to look better before we crash into the iceberg or do we
want to change the shiprsquos course to prevent it from sinking
Mission Statement
Restore Constitutional principles and conservative values by engaging conservatives in grassroots politics

ABOUT SCSSJR 51 by Frieda Keough
SCSSJR 51 - This constitutional amendment if approved by the voters would modify the composition of the Appellate Judicial Commission and the selection process for judges to the Supreme Court and the Court of Appeals This act increases the number of individuals that the Appellate Judicial Commission nominates for vacancies in the Supreme Court or Court of Appeals from three to four Currently the Appellate Judicial Commission consists of seven members as follows one Supreme Court judge a member of the bar from each appellate district elected by members of the bar in that district and a non-bar member citizen from each appellate district appointed by the Governor This act replaces the judge member of the commission with an additional member appointed by the Governor Members appointed by the Governor no longer must be non-bar members The Governor will appoint one member from each appellate district and one from the state at large The appointed members will serve terms of four years Their terms will be staggered so that a Governor will appoint two when taking office and two during the middle of his or her term The Supreme Court will appoint a former Supreme Court or Court of Appeals judge to serve as a nonvoting member of the commission The former judge cannot have been removed for cause or failed to be retained in a retention election The changes to the Appellate Judicial Commission will take effect on January 15 2013 If this is approved by the voters the governor will be accountable for the judges appointed not a faceless group of lawyers

The Leftrsquos National Vote Fraud Strategy Exposed Posted By James Simpson On May 7 2012
reprinted from httpwwwaimorgspecial-reportthe-lefts-national-vote-fraud-strategy-exposedprint
This report reveals the Leftrsquos vote fraud strategy for the 2012 elections Like a KGB operation it is thorough multi-faceted and redundant It has overt and covert illegal and legal elements the
latter of which are designed at least in part to facilitate illegal activities later It is a deliberate premeditated comprehensive plan to win the 2012 presidential election at all costs and is in
keeping with the organizational methods associations and ethics of the Community-Organizer-in-Chief Barack Obama
The Left seeks fundamental structural change to our entire form of government In keeping with their amoral means-justifies-ends philosophy they will register any voters dead or alive legal
or illegal who will then vote as many times as possible in order to establish a ldquopermanent progressive majority [1]rdquo As two New York Democrats recently caught in a vote fraud scandal told [2]police ldquovoter fraud is an accepted way of winning electionshelliprdquo
Low income individuals are the perfect dupes for this strategy An expanding welfare state makes them increasingly dependent on government benefits a development that guarantees their vote for liberal-left candidates At the same time people with marginal attachment to society may be less inclined to report illegal activity at the pollsmdashor actually participate The ldquovictimrdquo
narrative promoted in popular culture and press may even encourage such behavior Meanwhile a growing tax burden and public debt suck private enterprise drymdashpushing ever more people
onto the dole
Politicians of both parties are not above engaging in vote fraud But this kind of corruption is relegated to individual campaigns or areas where corrupt political establishments have been able to
develop unchallenged It is not a systematic component of overall national strategy as it is with the Left
This strategy has been under development for decades They have constructed an entire industry devoted to this task and pursue a multifaceted strategy to accomplish it
1 Swamp election officials with overwhelming numbers of registrations at the last possible minute a huge proportion of which are deliberately fraudulent in order to create systematic chaos This accomplishes numerous goals
Makes verification of registrations difficult given the small size and limited budgets of state and local election offices
Provides multiple opportunities for vote fraud
Throws the entire voting process into question providing pretext for lawsuits where concessions may be obtained from election officials
When election officials challenge registrations they are accused of ldquovoter suppressionrdquo This in turn serves complementary goals
o Charge of ldquovoter suppressionrdquo reinforces the Leftrsquos narrative about America as an oppressive ldquoracistrdquo country
o Publicity and lawsuits intimidate election officials who settle on terms favorable to the Left
2 Activists sue state authorities for ldquovoter suppressionrdquo creating further chaos and pressuring them to become de facto taxpayer-funded voter registration operations
3 Eric Holderrsquos Justice Department tacitly supports voter intimidation tactics sues states and backs private lawsuits and resists reform as ldquovoter suppressionrdquo
4 Leftist echo chamber discredits allegations of vote fraud supports ldquosuppressionrdquo theme and promotes advantageous legislation
The ultimate goal is a systematized taxpayer-funded voting machinery that will guarantee maximum participation from the Leftrsquos voting demographic while undermining the ability to manage
elections and prevent fraud

The Leftrsquos National Vote Fraud Strategy Exposed (cont)
Key to understanding the Leftrsquos vote-fraud strategy is the community organizing group ACORN [3] ACORN has become synonymous with corruption complicity [4] in the subprime mortgage crisis [4] and especially vote fraud [5]
ACORN and its voter registration arm Project Vote [6] hire marginal and unskilled workers at very low rates and use incentive bonuses or quotas to encourage them to collect as many voter
registrations as possible [7] The resulting flood of registrations are fraught with duplicates errors and omissions and a large number are overtly fraudulent including names like ldquoDonald Duckrdquo ldquoMickey Mouserdquo ldquoTony Romordquo of the Dallas Cowboys [8] etc [9][2] [10] According to Matthew Vadum [11] the senior editor at Capital Research Center a total of 400000 bogus ACORN
registrations were thrown out in 2008 alone
ACORN was supposedly disbanded in 2010 but resurrected itself under a slew of new names Former ACORN President Bertha Lewis bragged [12] that they created ldquohellip18 bulletproof community-
organizing Frankensteinshelliprdquo These are reproduced in the table below Most of these groups occupy former ACORN offices many with the same staff
ACORN is directly connected to Obama and the Democratic Party Counsel to The Advance Group a strategic planning company is Michael Gaspard [13] Patrick Gaspardrsquos [14] brother Patrick is currently the DNCrsquos executive director and President Obamarsquos former political director He has worked for ACORN the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) and the Working Families

A MESSAGE FROMhellip
NEWS FROM THE TRENCHES ndash FLORIDA
Champion Tom Coutre and his wife helped set up 25 Voter Registration Drives in 25 different churches in Sumter Marion and Lake Counties prior to Floridas Presidential Primary (PPP) With the help of volunteers from the
churches they distributed about 2000 voter registration forms
Tom reported that the churches with the highest rate of success did these two things
1 The Pastors played the Champion the Vote video at their services and according to Tom people were
shocked by the statistics in the video
2 The Pastors said something like this from the pulpitIf you are not registered to vote or fail to vote you
are not doing your duty as a Christian or as an American citizen They then directed the congregation to pick up a voter registration form and a voter guide after the service
Tom said that in the end registering new voters may not have been the most important result of the effort Tom
believes that the real importance of the drives was that they raised awareness of the power of the primary He
reported that Sumter County Florida had the highest percentage turnout for the PPP While he does not attribute
this directly to the voter registration efforts the Supervisor of Elections said that during the drives they
experienced an unusual number of new voter registrations in which voters changed their party affiliation Let us know what youre doing to champion the vote in your community and beyond

Analysis Conservatives used tactics of the left in Wisconsin win
Nick CareyReuters
657 pm CDT June 6 2012
MADISON Wisconsin (Reuters) - Activists with the conservative Tea Party movement say they owe a lot to their schooling in left-wing
community organizing tactics for the historic Republican victory over the Democrats and their union allies in the Wisconsin recall election
While the Democrats said huge campaign spending by conservatives supporters of Republican Scott Walker allowed him on Tuesday to
become the first governor in US history to survive a recall election the Republicans point to their grassroots get-out-the-vote work as more
important
Advertising can only do so much said Ned Ryun head of the national conservative group American Majority whose sister group American
Majority Action worked closely with Wisconsin activists But talking to someone face to face is a game changer
Combine that personal contact with energizing a mass movement of door knockers and the latest phone software technology to track voters and
you have many of the ingredients for the victory they say
The conservative activists have literally taken a page out of a left-wing radicals guide to organizing - as many have read the late Saul Alinskys
Rules for Radicals
Born in 1909 in Chicago Alinsky - who died in 1972 - began his organizing career in the citys poor Back of the Yards district and is widely
considered the founder of modern community organizing
There was no manual for organizing on the right so we adapted it to the conservative cause said Brown of We the People of the Republic a
Tea Party group based in Madison Wisconsin The left has been good at it for 100 years so what better place to start
Labor unions and liberal activists forced the recall election against Walker because of his successful effort last year to curb the collective
bargaining powers of public sector workers in the Midwestern US state famous for its beer cheese and Harley-Davidsonmotorcycles
The unions with a reputation for excelling at grass-roots organizing not only failed to oust Walker - but he beat his Democratic challenger
Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett by an even bigger margin than his 2010 gubernatorial victory
Out-of-state conservatives flooded Wisconsin with tens of millions of dollars in campaign cash in an election seen as a barometer of the
American political mood ahead of the November 6 presidential election Walker outspend Barrett by more than 7-to-1
Leading US conservative donors made donations to boost Walker
Luke Hilgemann Wisconsin state director of Americans for Prosperity which is backed by conservative billionaire brothers David
and Charles Koch said the group coordinated a network of some 100000 local activists Most of their efforts centered on 17 key counties
Money alone doesnt win elections In the three weeks before the election Walker benefited from a disciplined get-out-the-vote drive mounted
by people associated with the Tea Party movement which reviles President Barack Obama Wisconsin could be a key battleground state in the
November 6 election as Obama seeks re-election against Republican Mitt Romney
A lot of the campaign cash bankrolled a wave of pro-Walker advertising Exit polls taken on Tuesday however indicated the ads may not have
been a decisive factor nearly 90 percent of voters say they chose their candidate before the ad barrage
Not only is the Tea Party alive and kicking those guys ran a great get-out-the-vote campaign said Ford OConnell a Republican strategist and
chairman of the CivicForum PAC political group They have given away the secret recipe for what could win the election for Mitt Romney
This is a paradigm shift added Matt Kibbe president of FreedomWorks a conservative group chaired by former Republican House of
Representatives Majority leader Dick Armey that provides training and resources to Tea Party activists If the grassroots embrace a cause
they make all the difference
11
Analysis Conservatives used tactics of the left in Wisconsin win (cont)
UNION FAULTS
Analysts said Democrats and unions made fundamental mistakes in Wisconsin Instead of uniting behind one candidate to challenge Walker
Democrats waged a divisive primary and most unions did not back the eventual winner Tom Barrett who has had his own disputes with unions
as mayor of Milwaukee
The Democrats lost valuable time and money while Walker was traveling the country collecting millions of dollars to back his election effort
They also may have miscalculated in choosing Barrett who previously had lost to Walker in 2010
If they are going to recall a governor it hardly makes sense to try to challenge him with a candidate who lost against him last time said Marick
Masters a professor of business and director of labor studies at Wayne State University in Detroit
On Wednesday top labor leaders such as AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka and Teamsters General President Jim Hoffa were not
acknowledging any mistakes publicly and dismissed the idea that events in Wisconsin had a broad implications for the labor movements future
Walker needed every last dime and every last divisive TV ad to maintain a weakened hold on his office Trumka said
Success in Wisconsin this year came with the aid of technology such as a new get-out-the-vote app called Gravity that American Majority Action
provided free to Tea Party activists as conservatives targeted like-minded voters
Prior to the election Tea Party activists reported encountering voters who backed Walker but would be out of state on the day of the election So
activists helped them fill out absentee ballots
We would have lost those votes if we hadnt showed up said Matt Batzel state director of American Majority Action Thats what this is all
about
Note The above article documents how the grassroots played an integral role in the Wisconsin recall A new ldquoget out the voterdquo app called ldquoGravityrdquohellipand groups like American Majority and True the Vote were all part of a unified effort with many other grassroots organizations both local and national to help achieve victory The sophistication of these programs coupled with the manpower and passion of the grassroots movement was a ldquowinningrdquo combination These same tools and strategies will be showcased at our MOPP ldquoWinning in Novemberrdquo seminar that will take place on July 14 2012 We hope you make plans to attend and join us to learn how you can utilize these tools for victory in November

November Is a Plebiscite On the American Revolution
REPRINTED FROM Tuesday May 01 2012
Election Day 2012 will not be a presidential election It will be a plebiscite
Americans will not only be voting for a president (and a House and a third of the Senate) They will be participating in a plebiscite on the definition of America If Americans re-elect the Democrat Barack Obama they will have announced that America should be like Western European countries -- governed by left-wing values Americans will have decided that Americas value system -- Liberty In God We Trust E Pluribus Unum -- should be replaced The election in November is therefore a plebiscite on the American Revolution The usual description of presidential elections -- the most important in our lifetime -- is true this time In fact it may be the most important election since the Civil War and possibly since Americas founding
The left knows what is at stake And the most left-wing president in American history knows what is at stake Candidate Obama announced shortly before the 2008 election We are five days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America He described the lefts aim perfectly to fundamentally transform America It seeks to replace Liberty In God We Trust and E Pluribus Unum That is what fundamentally transform means In fact those words are proof that American values and leftist values are fundamentally opposed to one another
The right on the other hand seeks to maintain Americas values Conservatives want to improve America but as its name implies conservatism seeks to conserve not transform Liberty means first and foremost limited government -- because bigger government means less individual liberty In God We Trust means that America must be rooted in Creator-based values There are no inalienable rights if no rights derive from God And E Pluribus Unum means the assumption of an American identity by all citizens regardless of their racial ethnic or national background
The left seeks to replace Liberty with Equality Material inequality is the great evil and if individual liberty needs to be sacrificed to attain equality so be it Creator-based values are to be replaced by government-based values God-fearing is to be replaced by State-fearing God must be removed from schools and wherever else the left can succeed in doing so E Pluribus Unum is to be replaced by multiculturalism For leftism the very words American identity conjure up chauvinism if not fascism
For these reasons this election is not just a choice between a Democrat and a Republican It is between Americanism and leftism This does not mean that left-wing Americans are un-American or unpatriotic -- or that they do not love their country The conflict between Americanism and leftism is between ideas not between decent and indecent people But it is an unfortunate fact of life that decent people can believe in bad ideas If this were not so few of the greatest evils would ever have occurred
If this election is indeed a plebiscite on America Mitt Romney cannot campaign solely or even primarily on the state of the economy First what if the economy even slightly improves What happens then to Governor Romneys appeal Moreover relying for ones success on the suffering of ones fellow Americans is morally as well as politically perilous Second Americans want to vote for more than an economic Mr Fix-It as desirable as such a person is
So too Mr Romney should not overly personalize his campaign He is running against Obama but Barack Obama is not the biggest issue The lefts desire to transform America is the biggest issue Barack Obama is to be opposed because he is a man of the left Mitt Romney and the entire Republican Party need to describe this election as the plebiscite on America that it is The most urgent task in American life is to make clear and then repeat as often as possible leftist values and American values are in conflict
Instead of asking Are you better off than you were three years ago Every Republican needs to ask every day Do you want to fundamentally transform America If they do Barack Obama is their man If they dont Mitt Romney is
NOTE The Missouri Caucuses are completed A lot of people got involved this year and were very passionate about the various
candidates Not everybody is happy One even hears that voting for the supposed nominee Mitt Romney is no different than Barack Obama So why bother to vote We should all remember that the next President will probably be in a position to nominate up to four Supreme Court justices So keep this in mind when you make your decisions about who to support Current age of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg - 79 years Stephen Breyer - 73 years
Anthony Kennedy - 75 years Antonin Scalia - 76 tears We cannot afford to have a President Obama replace any Supreme Court Justices but especially not a Antonin Scalia Especially if we do not have at least 41 Senators that would be willing to stand up and vote no for any Supreme Court nominee that does not have true constitutional credentials Supposedly Mitt Romney has appointed a group of individuals to review possible candidates for the Supreme Court This is encouraging especially since the man heading this group is Robert Borck one of the best constitutional jurists this country has ever produced

Obamas Second Term Transformation Plans By Steve McCann
The 2012 election has often been described as the most pivotal since 1860 This statement is not hyperbole If Barack Obama is re-elected the
United States will never be the same nor will it be able to re-capture its once lofty status as the most dominant nation in the history of mankind The overwhelming majority of Americans do not understand that Obamas first term was dedicated to putting in place executive power to enable him
and the administration to fulfill the campaign promise of transforming America in his second term regardless of which political party controls
Congress That is why his re-election team is virtually ignoring the plight of incumbent or prospective Democratic Party office holders
The most significant accomplishment of Obamas first term is to make Congress irrelevant Under the myopic and blindly loyal leadership of Harry
Reid and Nancy Pelosi the Democrats have succeeded in creating an imperial and in a second term a potential dictatorial presidency
During the first two years of the Obama administration when the Democrats overwhelming controlled both Houses of Congress and the media was in
an Obama worshipping stupor a myriad of laws were passed and actions taken which transferred virtually unlimited power to the executive branch The birth of multi-thousand page laws was not an aberration This tactic was adopted so the bureaucracy controlled by Obama appointees would
have sole discretion in interpreting vaguely written laws and enforcing thousands of pages of regulations they and not Congress would subsequently
write
For example in the 2700 pages of ObamaCare there are more than 2500 references to the Secretary of Health and Human Services There are more
than 700 instances when he or she is instructed that they shall do something and more than 200 times when they may take at their sole discretion
some form of regulatory action On 139 occasions the law mentions that the Secretary determines In essence one person appointed by and
reporting to the president will be in charge of the health care of 310 million Americans once ObamaCare is fully operational in 2014
The same is true in the 2319 pages of the Dodd-Frank Financial Reform Act which confers nearly unlimited power on various agencies to control by
fiat the nations financial banking and investment sectors The bill also creates new agencies such as the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau not
subject to any oversight by Congress This overall process was repeated numerous times with other legislation all with the intent of granting
unfettered power to the executive branch controlled Barack Obama and his radical associates
Additionally the Obama administration has through its unilaterally determined rule making and regulatory powers created laws out of whole cloth
The Environmental Protection Agency on a near daily basis issues new regulations clearly out of their purview in order to modify and change
environmental laws previously passed and to impose a radical green agenda never approved by Congress The same is true of the Energy and Interior
Departments among many others
None of these extra-constitutional actions have been challenged by Congress The left in America knows this usurpation of power is nearly
impossible to reverse unless stopped in its early stages
It is clearly the mindset of this administration and its appointees that Congress is merely a nuisance and can be ignored after they were able to take
full advantage of the useful idiots in the Democrat controlled House and Senate in 2009-2010 and the Democrat Senate in the current Congress Additionally Barack Obama knows after his re-election a Republican controlled House and Senate will not be able to enact any legislation to roll
back the power previously granted to the Executive Branch or usurped by them His veto will not be overridden as there will always be at least 145
Democratic members of the House or 34 in the Senate in agreement with or intimidated by an administration more than willing to use Chicago style
political tactics
The stalemate between the Executive and Legislative Branches will inure to the benefit of Barack Obama and his fellow leftists The most significant power Congress has is the control of the purse-strings as all spending must be approved by them However once re-elected
Barack Obama as confirmed by his willingness to do or say anything and his unscrupulous re-election tactics would not only threaten government
shutdowns but would deliberately withhold payments to those dependent on government support as a means of intimidating and forcing a Republican
controlled Congress to surrender to his demands thus neutering their ability to control the administration through spending constraints Further this administration has shown contempt for the courts by ignoring various court orders eg the Gulf of Mexico oil drilling moratorium as
well as stonewalling subpoenas and requests issued by Congress The Eric Holder Justice Department has become the epitome of corruption as part
of the most dishonest and deceitful administration in American history In a second term the arrogance of Barack Obama and his minions will
become more blatant as he will not have to be concerned with re-election
Who will be there to enforce the rule of law a Supreme Court ruling or the Constitution No one Barack Obama and his fellow-travelers will be
unchallenged as they run roughshod over the American people
Many Republicans and conservatives dissatisfied with the prospect of Mitt Romney as the nominee for president are instead focused on re-taking the
House and Senate That goal while worthy and necessary is meaningless unless Barack Obama is defeated The nation is not dealing with a person
of character and integrity but someone of single-minded purpose and overwhelming narcissism Judging by his actions words and deeds during his
first term he does not intend to work with Congress either Republican or Democrat in his second term but rather to force his radical agenda on the
American people through the power he has usurped or been granted
The governmental structure of the United States was set up by the founders in the hope that over the years only those people of high moral character
and integrity would assume the reins of power However knowing that was not always possible they dispersed power over three distinct and
independent branches as a check on each other
14
Obamas Second Term Transformation Plans (cont)
What they could not imagine is the surrender and abdication of its constitutional duty by the preeminent governmental branch the Congress to a
chief executive devoid of any character or integrity coupled with a judiciary essentially powerless to enforce the law when the chief executive ignores
them
Conservatives Libertarians the Republican Party and Mitt Romney must come to grips with this moment in time and their historical role in denying
Barack Obama and his minions their ultimate goal All resources must be directed at that end-game and not merely controlling Congress and the
various committee chairmanships

Winning the Youth Vote
Posted by Mindy Reifer 12pc on May 03 2012 middot Flag
After clearly indicating their strategic ploys to secure the women vote this election cycle Democrats are now sharpening their rhetoric aimed at reclaiming the youth vote President Obama directed his April campaigning towards college students focusing on college-loan rates and other university-related political issues
Since the 2008 election results were first analyzed the prominence of the youth vote has weighed heavily on both Democratic and Republican candidatesrsquo campaign decisions The popular myth circulating is that for Obamarsquos 2008 win the youth vote turned out in remarkably unprecedented numbers And all Obama has to do is continue this pattern to secure his
electoral victory
But that might be easier said than done this time around
First Obama did not in fact grow the youth vote very much and certainly not in unprecedented numbers What Obama actually did accomplish in 2008 was to turn the youth vote largely
away from Republicans securing a majority of votes from voters aged 18-29 The actual growth of the youth vote though was just 1
Posting on the Washington Postrsquos website on April 24 Chris Cillizza and Aaron Blakeat demonstrate that while political organizations claimed that Obamarsquos election was in part due to a more than 22 million youth voter turnout increase ldquoyoung voters comprised 18 percent of the electorate in 2008 a one-point improvement from their share of the electorate in 2004 2000
and 1996 but nowhere near the heights they reached in the 1980srdquo
Misrepresentation of Obamarsquos success at the polls led to many dishonest facts being promulgated to bolster the supposed turnout-increasing abilities of our president Even before the
finally tally in 2008 Heather Smith of Rock the Vote (as quoted by Melissa Dahl on MSNBCcom) said ldquoWe expected record turnout and that is what wersquore seeing right nowrdquo
Hindsight proved that it was not at all a record turnout certainly not when the 1980 and 1984 Reagan Revolution is considered but it was a record margin in favor of the Democratic nominee And this youth vote clobbering likely tilted the election in Obamarsquos favor Dahl says that ldquoyoung voters preferred Obama over John McCain by 68 percent to 30 percent mdash the
highest share of the youth vote obtained by any candidate since exit polls began reporting results by age in 1976 according to CIRCLE a non-partisan organizationrdquo
It is not only Obama and Democrats who are going after the youth vote At the same time that Obama was appealing to his prime target Romney was giving stump speeches about
student loans and college costs (In pure campaign-mode Obama demanded that Congress keep student loan rates low something that Republicans in Congress have also supported)
It remains to be seen if Obama will once again secure the youth vote or by what margin
This time around Republicans have a stronger platform to run on Obamarsquos record Statistics released by the Republican Study Committee on April 30 show that more than half of recent
college graduates are unemployed or underemployed In fact 85 of college graduates will be moving back home with their parents hardly the ideal goal of a college grad
Many of the youngest of 2008rsquos voters have now graduated college and are finding themselves enveloped in student debt and facing the harsh realities of the Obama recession And of
course the older end of the youth vote have now matured somewhat witnessing first-hand the destruction Obamarsquos policies have wrought on our economy and foreign image
And it is up to this very demographic to perhaps effect the biggest change in the election outcome this November But unfortunately youth voters are still favoring Obama over Romney by a strong margin strong enough to win him reelection An April 2012 Washington Post-ABC survey showed Obama leading Romney by 21 points among 18-29-year olds Romney is
correct in assuming he needs to appeal to the youth vote not just to grow the turnout but more importantly to urge deflections over to the Republicans side in order to secure the election
Romney needs to focus on the economy not just student loan rates He needs to remind young voters that they will need jobs to pay back their loans no matter how low interest rates remain And moving back home with Mom and Dad is no way to spend onersquos first year as a college graduate America needs to once again be a nation of unique unprecedented
economy opportunity and a 2012 ldquoReaganrdquo revolution is necessary to put the US back on track to prosperity

The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
December 9 2011
By Sara Noble
ldquoThe elective franchise if guarded as the ark of our safety will peaceably dissipate all combinations to subvert a Constitution dictated by the
wisdom and resting on the will of the peoplerdquo ~ Thomas Jefferson
While Americans are focused on the election the Progressive wing of the Democratic Party funded by two eccentric businessmen and a George Soros son are stealthily orchestrating the decimation of the voting process and states rights through the National Popular Vote Compact (NPV)
The NPV is a popular sound bite that will do the opposite of what it is portrayed to do ndash make each Americanrsquos vote count It does not do that
because it keeps the electoral college but misuses it What it actually does is create a ldquoforced mergerrdquo between heavily populated states and less populated states
Currently moving at a rapid pace the NPV is a state-by-state initiative that will force states to allocate their electoral votes to the winner of
the national popular vote rather than the winner of the popular vote in their state
NPV will greatly reduce the power of most states in that the highly populated states will be able to gain the electoral votes and in fact 11 states could decide the Presidential election
California Texas New York Florida Illinois Pennsylvania Ohio Michigan Georgia North Carolina and New Jersey have 57 of the votes cast
in 2008 and together they have 270 electoral votes the amount necessary to win the election Do you want these states to decide who is President
while other states have no say
Is this what the Founding Fathers wanted An election based on demographics and geographics
Why is the current structure of the electoral college so important Our Founding Fathers believed that the state by state disbursed system
maintained the sovereignty of the states and disallowed Federalism The containment of ldquomischiefrdquo or voter fraud of the ACORN type is contained within states instead of being spread nationally The electoral college provides balance and firewalls against voter fraud
Do you believe all states should be purple and not red or blue Then you do NOT want the NPV Supporters of the NPV claim it will favor
Republicans in that there are more underutilized Republican votes than Democratic votes which I doubt since the heavily populated states are predominantly liberal Whether this is true or not does not matter
17
The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
(cont)
We should not favor one side or the other in the United States of America
The initiative has been approved by half the states necessary to pass it The states that have approved it equal 70 electoral votes and only 138 are needed for it to pass It is well on its way to becoming law
NPV circumvents the Constitution by allowing individual states to change the Constitution without an amendment However the compact clause of
the Constitution does not allow any state to ldquoenter into any Agreement or Compact with another Staterdquo Liberal states like California could join with
Illinois New York and another 8 other liberal states forming a super bloc that would give all their electoral votes to the winner forming the bloc that could take the election
Article V specifically states that the Constitution must be amended ldquono State without its Consent shall be deprived of its equal Suffrage in the Senaterdquo The NPV as structured will immediately take effect without an amendment and it will probably be in time for the 2012 election
NPV has bipartisan support and the opposition should be bipartisan as well It is not a partisan issue it is about states rights and the power of each individual guaranteed by the electoral college
NPV will have many unwanted side effects The states that decide the election will probably be the states that receive the federal dollars because
their votes count They will likely be the only states that candidates will visit
Another problematic side effect reared its ugly head in my own Congressional district on Long Island Our congressman Tim Bishop received most
of his funding from New York City and other areas outside Long Island including as far away as California NPV will encourage the influx of money from outside the key 11 states It will be lobbying on steroids
Then there is the nationalization of voter fraud Some states require proof of citizenship photo IDrsquos no IDrsquos but NPV will eliminate that choice and the containment of fraud that states provide
I personally experienced absentee voter fraud For example one woman voted from Canada and used the address of a local middle school The courts
in NY let these votes stand Even the dead people we found were counted because you only have a few days to prove they are dead and courts want a
death certificate which is hard to get on hundreds of people in a matter of days So in NY dead people vote I happen to know of a number of illegal
aliens who voted as well
In Kansas the Democratic primary of Rizzo vs Royster shows the seriousness of voter fraud A group in support of Rizzo brought in 50 Somali nationals to vote Rizzo won by one vote
ACORN often mobilizes aliens to vote
In Mississippi 23 counties had more people registered to vote than were alive
Examples are endless though some would have us believe fraud is not a widespread problem
There is the costly and lengthy litigation which will ensue if NPV passes Examples are -
What happens constitutionally if a state in the NPV doesnrsquot like the candidate they are forced to give their electoral votes to and pulls out of the
compact though they are not free to do so
NPV does not meet equal protection under the 14th amendment for the states who do not sign on to the NPV
The compact clause Article I suggests it needs congressional approval
Article II delegates power to the states which the NPV overrides
Administratively a non-qualified person not even on the ballot could win it will force states with solid voting requirements to go with those who
allow rampant fraud if they have higher population density the individuality of states that includes early voter registration felons voting voting by mail et cetera will dissolve into the requirements of the heavily populated states Close elections will cause inevitable and lengthy delays
There is even a question of whether some states will be able to vote under the compact
18
The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
(cont)
Litigation will take a long time and could end up leaving the incumbent President in place for months or years
NPV will -
Federalize the vote
Destroy state sovereignty in the Presidential election
Circumvent the Constitution
Disenfranchise voters by giving 11 states the power to decide the election
It will ignite endless litigation
Reduce voting to the lowest common denominator
Give a handful of states supremacy
NPV is a ldquoone size fits allrdquo and it forces many states to abandon the voting procedures and policies that make them unique It focuses on the end
results and sacrifices process

NOTE One of our very own Republican Missouri Legislators introduced a bill in the last legislative session in favor of the National Popular Vote and to eliminate the Electoral College Dwight Scharnhorst (93rd District before re-districting) explained that he did not know that what this bill was about and that is why he introduced it Unfortunately MrScharnhorst is now running unopposed in the newly re-districted 88th District

GETTING INVOLVED IN YOUR PRECINCT
WHY Because we believe ldquoall politics is localrdquo
Become involved at the local level to restore conservative values and principles that will then ldquotrickle UPrdquo to all levels of government
MOPP is not the first to utilize this strategy ndash Phyllis Schlafly implemented the ldquoprecinct strategyrdquo to defeat the ERA 30+ years ago
We believe that Missouri needed to join the ranks of other states with similar efforts including Texas Florida Pennsylvania Nevada and
Utah
We want to encourage Missourians across the State to work in their own communities and counties to make a differencehellip
WHAT MOPPrsquos 4 pronged strategy
1 Key element (hence the name Missouri Precinct Project) Identify the 40-50 of the unfilled precincttownship
committee positions in their county that go unfilled (many of our members have filed to fill these positions across the
state ndash ie St Louis County stat 35 new)
2 Get out the Conservative vote ndash
a MOPP encourages its members to utilize our database (we are in the final stage of determining which program we
will be using) to canvass their neighborhood to identify and register conservative voters educate voters on issues
and candidates and get them to the polls on election day
b MOPP also partners with ldquoChampion The Votehellipencouraging our volunteers to become Champions in the
Champion the Vote program to register unregistered Christian voters (in Missouri in 2008 there was only a
4000 difference between the 2 presidential candidateshellipthatrsquos a pretty close margin but yet there are
approximately 150000 unregistered Christians in the State)
Go here to become a ldquoChampionrdquo httpchampionthevotecomheadquartersmissouri
3 Encourage becoming a poll worker to help prevent voter fraud
4 Build and maintain a database in order to form a more effective coalition united voice for Conservatives across the State

IN SUMMARY If we are ever to get control of our government and change the type of people we get into office and the control that big-
money currently brings we must get directly and actively involved at the grassroots level in the two-party system
It is not going to be easy and it is not going to change overnight But without this approach we are simply reshuffling the
chairs on the deck of the Titanic Do we just want the furniture to look better before we crash into the iceberg or do we
want to change the shiprsquos course to prevent it from sinking
Mission Statement
Restore Constitutional principles and conservative values by engaging conservatives in grassroots politics

The Leftrsquos National Vote Fraud Strategy Exposed Posted By James Simpson On May 7 2012
reprinted from httpwwwaimorgspecial-reportthe-lefts-national-vote-fraud-strategy-exposedprint
This report reveals the Leftrsquos vote fraud strategy for the 2012 elections Like a KGB operation it is thorough multi-faceted and redundant It has overt and covert illegal and legal elements the
latter of which are designed at least in part to facilitate illegal activities later It is a deliberate premeditated comprehensive plan to win the 2012 presidential election at all costs and is in
keeping with the organizational methods associations and ethics of the Community-Organizer-in-Chief Barack Obama
The Left seeks fundamental structural change to our entire form of government In keeping with their amoral means-justifies-ends philosophy they will register any voters dead or alive legal
or illegal who will then vote as many times as possible in order to establish a ldquopermanent progressive majority [1]rdquo As two New York Democrats recently caught in a vote fraud scandal told [2]police ldquovoter fraud is an accepted way of winning electionshelliprdquo
Low income individuals are the perfect dupes for this strategy An expanding welfare state makes them increasingly dependent on government benefits a development that guarantees their vote for liberal-left candidates At the same time people with marginal attachment to society may be less inclined to report illegal activity at the pollsmdashor actually participate The ldquovictimrdquo
narrative promoted in popular culture and press may even encourage such behavior Meanwhile a growing tax burden and public debt suck private enterprise drymdashpushing ever more people
onto the dole
Politicians of both parties are not above engaging in vote fraud But this kind of corruption is relegated to individual campaigns or areas where corrupt political establishments have been able to
develop unchallenged It is not a systematic component of overall national strategy as it is with the Left
This strategy has been under development for decades They have constructed an entire industry devoted to this task and pursue a multifaceted strategy to accomplish it
1 Swamp election officials with overwhelming numbers of registrations at the last possible minute a huge proportion of which are deliberately fraudulent in order to create systematic chaos This accomplishes numerous goals
Makes verification of registrations difficult given the small size and limited budgets of state and local election offices
Provides multiple opportunities for vote fraud
Throws the entire voting process into question providing pretext for lawsuits where concessions may be obtained from election officials
When election officials challenge registrations they are accused of ldquovoter suppressionrdquo This in turn serves complementary goals
o Charge of ldquovoter suppressionrdquo reinforces the Leftrsquos narrative about America as an oppressive ldquoracistrdquo country
o Publicity and lawsuits intimidate election officials who settle on terms favorable to the Left
2 Activists sue state authorities for ldquovoter suppressionrdquo creating further chaos and pressuring them to become de facto taxpayer-funded voter registration operations
3 Eric Holderrsquos Justice Department tacitly supports voter intimidation tactics sues states and backs private lawsuits and resists reform as ldquovoter suppressionrdquo
4 Leftist echo chamber discredits allegations of vote fraud supports ldquosuppressionrdquo theme and promotes advantageous legislation
The ultimate goal is a systematized taxpayer-funded voting machinery that will guarantee maximum participation from the Leftrsquos voting demographic while undermining the ability to manage
elections and prevent fraud

The Leftrsquos National Vote Fraud Strategy Exposed (cont)
Key to understanding the Leftrsquos vote-fraud strategy is the community organizing group ACORN [3] ACORN has become synonymous with corruption complicity [4] in the subprime mortgage crisis [4] and especially vote fraud [5]
ACORN and its voter registration arm Project Vote [6] hire marginal and unskilled workers at very low rates and use incentive bonuses or quotas to encourage them to collect as many voter
registrations as possible [7] The resulting flood of registrations are fraught with duplicates errors and omissions and a large number are overtly fraudulent including names like ldquoDonald Duckrdquo ldquoMickey Mouserdquo ldquoTony Romordquo of the Dallas Cowboys [8] etc [9][2] [10] According to Matthew Vadum [11] the senior editor at Capital Research Center a total of 400000 bogus ACORN
registrations were thrown out in 2008 alone
ACORN was supposedly disbanded in 2010 but resurrected itself under a slew of new names Former ACORN President Bertha Lewis bragged [12] that they created ldquohellip18 bulletproof community-

A MESSAGE FROMhellip
NEWS FROM THE TRENCHES ndash FLORIDA
Champion Tom Coutre and his wife helped set up 25 Voter Registration Drives in 25 different churches in Sumter Marion and Lake Counties prior to Floridas Presidential Primary (PPP) With the help of volunteers from the
churches they distributed about 2000 voter registration forms
Tom reported that the churches with the highest rate of success did these two things
1 The Pastors played the Champion the Vote video at their services and according to Tom people were
shocked by the statistics in the video
2 The Pastors said something like this from the pulpitIf you are not registered to vote or fail to vote you
are not doing your duty as a Christian or as an American citizen They then directed the congregation to pick up a voter registration form and a voter guide after the service
Tom said that in the end registering new voters may not have been the most important result of the effort Tom
believes that the real importance of the drives was that they raised awareness of the power of the primary He
reported that Sumter County Florida had the highest percentage turnout for the PPP While he does not attribute
this directly to the voter registration efforts the Supervisor of Elections said that during the drives they
experienced an unusual number of new voter registrations in which voters changed their party affiliation Let us know what youre doing to champion the vote in your community and beyond

Analysis Conservatives used tactics of the left in Wisconsin win
Nick CareyReuters
657 pm CDT June 6 2012
MADISON Wisconsin (Reuters) - Activists with the conservative Tea Party movement say they owe a lot to their schooling in left-wing
community organizing tactics for the historic Republican victory over the Democrats and their union allies in the Wisconsin recall election
While the Democrats said huge campaign spending by conservatives supporters of Republican Scott Walker allowed him on Tuesday to
become the first governor in US history to survive a recall election the Republicans point to their grassroots get-out-the-vote work as more
important
Advertising can only do so much said Ned Ryun head of the national conservative group American Majority whose sister group American
Majority Action worked closely with Wisconsin activists But talking to someone face to face is a game changer
Combine that personal contact with energizing a mass movement of door knockers and the latest phone software technology to track voters and
you have many of the ingredients for the victory they say
The conservative activists have literally taken a page out of a left-wing radicals guide to organizing - as many have read the late Saul Alinskys
Rules for Radicals
Born in 1909 in Chicago Alinsky - who died in 1972 - began his organizing career in the citys poor Back of the Yards district and is widely
considered the founder of modern community organizing
There was no manual for organizing on the right so we adapted it to the conservative cause said Brown of We the People of the Republic a
Tea Party group based in Madison Wisconsin The left has been good at it for 100 years so what better place to start
Labor unions and liberal activists forced the recall election against Walker because of his successful effort last year to curb the collective
bargaining powers of public sector workers in the Midwestern US state famous for its beer cheese and Harley-Davidsonmotorcycles
The unions with a reputation for excelling at grass-roots organizing not only failed to oust Walker - but he beat his Democratic challenger
Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett by an even bigger margin than his 2010 gubernatorial victory
Out-of-state conservatives flooded Wisconsin with tens of millions of dollars in campaign cash in an election seen as a barometer of the
American political mood ahead of the November 6 presidential election Walker outspend Barrett by more than 7-to-1
Leading US conservative donors made donations to boost Walker
Luke Hilgemann Wisconsin state director of Americans for Prosperity which is backed by conservative billionaire brothers David
and Charles Koch said the group coordinated a network of some 100000 local activists Most of their efforts centered on 17 key counties
Money alone doesnt win elections In the three weeks before the election Walker benefited from a disciplined get-out-the-vote drive mounted
by people associated with the Tea Party movement which reviles President Barack Obama Wisconsin could be a key battleground state in the
November 6 election as Obama seeks re-election against Republican Mitt Romney
A lot of the campaign cash bankrolled a wave of pro-Walker advertising Exit polls taken on Tuesday however indicated the ads may not have
been a decisive factor nearly 90 percent of voters say they chose their candidate before the ad barrage
Not only is the Tea Party alive and kicking those guys ran a great get-out-the-vote campaign said Ford OConnell a Republican strategist and
chairman of the CivicForum PAC political group They have given away the secret recipe for what could win the election for Mitt Romney
This is a paradigm shift added Matt Kibbe president of FreedomWorks a conservative group chaired by former Republican House of
Representatives Majority leader Dick Armey that provides training and resources to Tea Party activists If the grassroots embrace a cause
they make all the difference
11
Analysis Conservatives used tactics of the left in Wisconsin win (cont)
UNION FAULTS
Analysts said Democrats and unions made fundamental mistakes in Wisconsin Instead of uniting behind one candidate to challenge Walker
Democrats waged a divisive primary and most unions did not back the eventual winner Tom Barrett who has had his own disputes with unions
as mayor of Milwaukee
The Democrats lost valuable time and money while Walker was traveling the country collecting millions of dollars to back his election effort
They also may have miscalculated in choosing Barrett who previously had lost to Walker in 2010
If they are going to recall a governor it hardly makes sense to try to challenge him with a candidate who lost against him last time said Marick
Masters a professor of business and director of labor studies at Wayne State University in Detroit
On Wednesday top labor leaders such as AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka and Teamsters General President Jim Hoffa were not
acknowledging any mistakes publicly and dismissed the idea that events in Wisconsin had a broad implications for the labor movements future
Walker needed every last dime and every last divisive TV ad to maintain a weakened hold on his office Trumka said
Success in Wisconsin this year came with the aid of technology such as a new get-out-the-vote app called Gravity that American Majority Action
provided free to Tea Party activists as conservatives targeted like-minded voters
Prior to the election Tea Party activists reported encountering voters who backed Walker but would be out of state on the day of the election So
activists helped them fill out absentee ballots
We would have lost those votes if we hadnt showed up said Matt Batzel state director of American Majority Action Thats what this is all
about
Note The above article documents how the grassroots played an integral role in the Wisconsin recall A new ldquoget out the voterdquo app called ldquoGravityrdquohellipand groups like American Majority and True the Vote were all part of a unified effort with many other grassroots organizations both local and national to help achieve victory The sophistication of these programs coupled with the manpower and passion of the grassroots movement was a ldquowinningrdquo combination These same tools and strategies will be showcased at our MOPP ldquoWinning in Novemberrdquo seminar that will take place on July 14 2012 We hope you make plans to attend and join us to learn how you can utilize these tools for victory in November

November Is a Plebiscite On the American Revolution
REPRINTED FROM Tuesday May 01 2012
Election Day 2012 will not be a presidential election It will be a plebiscite
Americans will not only be voting for a president (and a House and a third of the Senate) They will be participating in a plebiscite on the definition of America If Americans re-elect the Democrat Barack Obama they will have announced that America should be like Western European countries -- governed by left-wing values Americans will have decided that Americas value system -- Liberty In God We Trust E Pluribus Unum -- should be replaced The election in November is therefore a plebiscite on the American Revolution The usual description of presidential elections -- the most important in our lifetime -- is true this time In fact it may be the most important election since the Civil War and possibly since Americas founding
The left knows what is at stake And the most left-wing president in American history knows what is at stake Candidate Obama announced shortly before the 2008 election We are five days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America He described the lefts aim perfectly to fundamentally transform America It seeks to replace Liberty In God We Trust and E Pluribus Unum That is what fundamentally transform means In fact those words are proof that American values and leftist values are fundamentally opposed to one another
The right on the other hand seeks to maintain Americas values Conservatives want to improve America but as its name implies conservatism seeks to conserve not transform Liberty means first and foremost limited government -- because bigger government means less individual liberty In God We Trust means that America must be rooted in Creator-based values There are no inalienable rights if no rights derive from God And E Pluribus Unum means the assumption of an American identity by all citizens regardless of their racial ethnic or national background
The left seeks to replace Liberty with Equality Material inequality is the great evil and if individual liberty needs to be sacrificed to attain equality so be it Creator-based values are to be replaced by government-based values God-fearing is to be replaced by State-fearing God must be removed from schools and wherever else the left can succeed in doing so E Pluribus Unum is to be replaced by multiculturalism For leftism the very words American identity conjure up chauvinism if not fascism
For these reasons this election is not just a choice between a Democrat and a Republican It is between Americanism and leftism This does not mean that left-wing Americans are un-American or unpatriotic -- or that they do not love their country The conflict between Americanism and leftism is between ideas not between decent and indecent people But it is an unfortunate fact of life that decent people can believe in bad ideas If this were not so few of the greatest evils would ever have occurred
If this election is indeed a plebiscite on America Mitt Romney cannot campaign solely or even primarily on the state of the economy First what if the economy even slightly improves What happens then to Governor Romneys appeal Moreover relying for ones success on the suffering of ones fellow Americans is morally as well as politically perilous Second Americans want to vote for more than an economic Mr Fix-It as desirable as such a person is
So too Mr Romney should not overly personalize his campaign He is running against Obama but Barack Obama is not the biggest issue The lefts desire to transform America is the biggest issue Barack Obama is to be opposed because he is a man of the left Mitt Romney and the entire Republican Party need to describe this election as the plebiscite on America that it is The most urgent task in American life is to make clear and then repeat as often as possible leftist values and American values are in conflict
Instead of asking Are you better off than you were three years ago Every Republican needs to ask every day Do you want to fundamentally transform America If they do Barack Obama is their man If they dont Mitt Romney is
NOTE The Missouri Caucuses are completed A lot of people got involved this year and were very passionate about the various
candidates Not everybody is happy One even hears that voting for the supposed nominee Mitt Romney is no different than Barack Obama So why bother to vote We should all remember that the next President will probably be in a position to nominate up to four Supreme Court justices So keep this in mind when you make your decisions about who to support Current age of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg - 79 years Stephen Breyer - 73 years
Anthony Kennedy - 75 years Antonin Scalia - 76 tears We cannot afford to have a President Obama replace any Supreme Court Justices but especially not a Antonin Scalia Especially if we do not have at least 41 Senators that would be willing to stand up and vote no for any Supreme Court nominee that does not have true constitutional credentials Supposedly Mitt Romney has appointed a group of individuals to review possible candidates for the Supreme Court This is encouraging especially since the man heading this group is Robert Borck one of the best constitutional jurists this country has ever produced

Obamas Second Term Transformation Plans By Steve McCann
The 2012 election has often been described as the most pivotal since 1860 This statement is not hyperbole If Barack Obama is re-elected the
United States will never be the same nor will it be able to re-capture its once lofty status as the most dominant nation in the history of mankind The overwhelming majority of Americans do not understand that Obamas first term was dedicated to putting in place executive power to enable him
and the administration to fulfill the campaign promise of transforming America in his second term regardless of which political party controls
Congress That is why his re-election team is virtually ignoring the plight of incumbent or prospective Democratic Party office holders
The most significant accomplishment of Obamas first term is to make Congress irrelevant Under the myopic and blindly loyal leadership of Harry
Reid and Nancy Pelosi the Democrats have succeeded in creating an imperial and in a second term a potential dictatorial presidency
During the first two years of the Obama administration when the Democrats overwhelming controlled both Houses of Congress and the media was in
an Obama worshipping stupor a myriad of laws were passed and actions taken which transferred virtually unlimited power to the executive branch The birth of multi-thousand page laws was not an aberration This tactic was adopted so the bureaucracy controlled by Obama appointees would
have sole discretion in interpreting vaguely written laws and enforcing thousands of pages of regulations they and not Congress would subsequently
write
For example in the 2700 pages of ObamaCare there are more than 2500 references to the Secretary of Health and Human Services There are more
than 700 instances when he or she is instructed that they shall do something and more than 200 times when they may take at their sole discretion
some form of regulatory action On 139 occasions the law mentions that the Secretary determines In essence one person appointed by and
reporting to the president will be in charge of the health care of 310 million Americans once ObamaCare is fully operational in 2014
The same is true in the 2319 pages of the Dodd-Frank Financial Reform Act which confers nearly unlimited power on various agencies to control by
fiat the nations financial banking and investment sectors The bill also creates new agencies such as the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau not
subject to any oversight by Congress This overall process was repeated numerous times with other legislation all with the intent of granting
unfettered power to the executive branch controlled Barack Obama and his radical associates
Additionally the Obama administration has through its unilaterally determined rule making and regulatory powers created laws out of whole cloth
The Environmental Protection Agency on a near daily basis issues new regulations clearly out of their purview in order to modify and change
environmental laws previously passed and to impose a radical green agenda never approved by Congress The same is true of the Energy and Interior
Departments among many others
None of these extra-constitutional actions have been challenged by Congress The left in America knows this usurpation of power is nearly
impossible to reverse unless stopped in its early stages
It is clearly the mindset of this administration and its appointees that Congress is merely a nuisance and can be ignored after they were able to take
full advantage of the useful idiots in the Democrat controlled House and Senate in 2009-2010 and the Democrat Senate in the current Congress Additionally Barack Obama knows after his re-election a Republican controlled House and Senate will not be able to enact any legislation to roll
back the power previously granted to the Executive Branch or usurped by them His veto will not be overridden as there will always be at least 145
Democratic members of the House or 34 in the Senate in agreement with or intimidated by an administration more than willing to use Chicago style
political tactics
The stalemate between the Executive and Legislative Branches will inure to the benefit of Barack Obama and his fellow leftists The most significant power Congress has is the control of the purse-strings as all spending must be approved by them However once re-elected
Barack Obama as confirmed by his willingness to do or say anything and his unscrupulous re-election tactics would not only threaten government
shutdowns but would deliberately withhold payments to those dependent on government support as a means of intimidating and forcing a Republican
controlled Congress to surrender to his demands thus neutering their ability to control the administration through spending constraints Further this administration has shown contempt for the courts by ignoring various court orders eg the Gulf of Mexico oil drilling moratorium as
well as stonewalling subpoenas and requests issued by Congress The Eric Holder Justice Department has become the epitome of corruption as part
of the most dishonest and deceitful administration in American history In a second term the arrogance of Barack Obama and his minions will
become more blatant as he will not have to be concerned with re-election
Who will be there to enforce the rule of law a Supreme Court ruling or the Constitution No one Barack Obama and his fellow-travelers will be
unchallenged as they run roughshod over the American people
Many Republicans and conservatives dissatisfied with the prospect of Mitt Romney as the nominee for president are instead focused on re-taking the
House and Senate That goal while worthy and necessary is meaningless unless Barack Obama is defeated The nation is not dealing with a person
of character and integrity but someone of single-minded purpose and overwhelming narcissism Judging by his actions words and deeds during his
first term he does not intend to work with Congress either Republican or Democrat in his second term but rather to force his radical agenda on the
American people through the power he has usurped or been granted
The governmental structure of the United States was set up by the founders in the hope that over the years only those people of high moral character
and integrity would assume the reins of power However knowing that was not always possible they dispersed power over three distinct and
independent branches as a check on each other
14
Obamas Second Term Transformation Plans (cont)
What they could not imagine is the surrender and abdication of its constitutional duty by the preeminent governmental branch the Congress to a
chief executive devoid of any character or integrity coupled with a judiciary essentially powerless to enforce the law when the chief executive ignores
them
Conservatives Libertarians the Republican Party and Mitt Romney must come to grips with this moment in time and their historical role in denying
Barack Obama and his minions their ultimate goal All resources must be directed at that end-game and not merely controlling Congress and the
various committee chairmanships

Winning the Youth Vote
Posted by Mindy Reifer 12pc on May 03 2012 middot Flag
After clearly indicating their strategic ploys to secure the women vote this election cycle Democrats are now sharpening their rhetoric aimed at reclaiming the youth vote President Obama directed his April campaigning towards college students focusing on college-loan rates and other university-related political issues
Since the 2008 election results were first analyzed the prominence of the youth vote has weighed heavily on both Democratic and Republican candidatesrsquo campaign decisions The popular myth circulating is that for Obamarsquos 2008 win the youth vote turned out in remarkably unprecedented numbers And all Obama has to do is continue this pattern to secure his
electoral victory
But that might be easier said than done this time around
First Obama did not in fact grow the youth vote very much and certainly not in unprecedented numbers What Obama actually did accomplish in 2008 was to turn the youth vote largely
away from Republicans securing a majority of votes from voters aged 18-29 The actual growth of the youth vote though was just 1
Posting on the Washington Postrsquos website on April 24 Chris Cillizza and Aaron Blakeat demonstrate that while political organizations claimed that Obamarsquos election was in part due to a more than 22 million youth voter turnout increase ldquoyoung voters comprised 18 percent of the electorate in 2008 a one-point improvement from their share of the electorate in 2004 2000
and 1996 but nowhere near the heights they reached in the 1980srdquo
Misrepresentation of Obamarsquos success at the polls led to many dishonest facts being promulgated to bolster the supposed turnout-increasing abilities of our president Even before the
finally tally in 2008 Heather Smith of Rock the Vote (as quoted by Melissa Dahl on MSNBCcom) said ldquoWe expected record turnout and that is what wersquore seeing right nowrdquo
Hindsight proved that it was not at all a record turnout certainly not when the 1980 and 1984 Reagan Revolution is considered but it was a record margin in favor of the Democratic nominee And this youth vote clobbering likely tilted the election in Obamarsquos favor Dahl says that ldquoyoung voters preferred Obama over John McCain by 68 percent to 30 percent mdash the
highest share of the youth vote obtained by any candidate since exit polls began reporting results by age in 1976 according to CIRCLE a non-partisan organizationrdquo
It is not only Obama and Democrats who are going after the youth vote At the same time that Obama was appealing to his prime target Romney was giving stump speeches about
student loans and college costs (In pure campaign-mode Obama demanded that Congress keep student loan rates low something that Republicans in Congress have also supported)
It remains to be seen if Obama will once again secure the youth vote or by what margin
This time around Republicans have a stronger platform to run on Obamarsquos record Statistics released by the Republican Study Committee on April 30 show that more than half of recent
college graduates are unemployed or underemployed In fact 85 of college graduates will be moving back home with their parents hardly the ideal goal of a college grad
Many of the youngest of 2008rsquos voters have now graduated college and are finding themselves enveloped in student debt and facing the harsh realities of the Obama recession And of
course the older end of the youth vote have now matured somewhat witnessing first-hand the destruction Obamarsquos policies have wrought on our economy and foreign image
And it is up to this very demographic to perhaps effect the biggest change in the election outcome this November But unfortunately youth voters are still favoring Obama over Romney by a strong margin strong enough to win him reelection An April 2012 Washington Post-ABC survey showed Obama leading Romney by 21 points among 18-29-year olds Romney is
correct in assuming he needs to appeal to the youth vote not just to grow the turnout but more importantly to urge deflections over to the Republicans side in order to secure the election
Romney needs to focus on the economy not just student loan rates He needs to remind young voters that they will need jobs to pay back their loans no matter how low interest rates remain And moving back home with Mom and Dad is no way to spend onersquos first year as a college graduate America needs to once again be a nation of unique unprecedented
economy opportunity and a 2012 ldquoReaganrdquo revolution is necessary to put the US back on track to prosperity

The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
December 9 2011
By Sara Noble
ldquoThe elective franchise if guarded as the ark of our safety will peaceably dissipate all combinations to subvert a Constitution dictated by the
wisdom and resting on the will of the peoplerdquo ~ Thomas Jefferson
While Americans are focused on the election the Progressive wing of the Democratic Party funded by two eccentric businessmen and a George Soros son are stealthily orchestrating the decimation of the voting process and states rights through the National Popular Vote Compact (NPV)
The NPV is a popular sound bite that will do the opposite of what it is portrayed to do ndash make each Americanrsquos vote count It does not do that
because it keeps the electoral college but misuses it What it actually does is create a ldquoforced mergerrdquo between heavily populated states and less populated states
Currently moving at a rapid pace the NPV is a state-by-state initiative that will force states to allocate their electoral votes to the winner of
the national popular vote rather than the winner of the popular vote in their state
NPV will greatly reduce the power of most states in that the highly populated states will be able to gain the electoral votes and in fact 11 states could decide the Presidential election
California Texas New York Florida Illinois Pennsylvania Ohio Michigan Georgia North Carolina and New Jersey have 57 of the votes cast
in 2008 and together they have 270 electoral votes the amount necessary to win the election Do you want these states to decide who is President
while other states have no say
Is this what the Founding Fathers wanted An election based on demographics and geographics
Why is the current structure of the electoral college so important Our Founding Fathers believed that the state by state disbursed system
maintained the sovereignty of the states and disallowed Federalism The containment of ldquomischiefrdquo or voter fraud of the ACORN type is contained within states instead of being spread nationally The electoral college provides balance and firewalls against voter fraud
Do you believe all states should be purple and not red or blue Then you do NOT want the NPV Supporters of the NPV claim it will favor
Republicans in that there are more underutilized Republican votes than Democratic votes which I doubt since the heavily populated states are predominantly liberal Whether this is true or not does not matter
17
The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
(cont)
We should not favor one side or the other in the United States of America
The initiative has been approved by half the states necessary to pass it The states that have approved it equal 70 electoral votes and only 138 are needed for it to pass It is well on its way to becoming law
NPV circumvents the Constitution by allowing individual states to change the Constitution without an amendment However the compact clause of
the Constitution does not allow any state to ldquoenter into any Agreement or Compact with another Staterdquo Liberal states like California could join with
Illinois New York and another 8 other liberal states forming a super bloc that would give all their electoral votes to the winner forming the bloc that could take the election
Article V specifically states that the Constitution must be amended ldquono State without its Consent shall be deprived of its equal Suffrage in the Senaterdquo The NPV as structured will immediately take effect without an amendment and it will probably be in time for the 2012 election
NPV has bipartisan support and the opposition should be bipartisan as well It is not a partisan issue it is about states rights and the power of each individual guaranteed by the electoral college
NPV will have many unwanted side effects The states that decide the election will probably be the states that receive the federal dollars because
their votes count They will likely be the only states that candidates will visit
Another problematic side effect reared its ugly head in my own Congressional district on Long Island Our congressman Tim Bishop received most
of his funding from New York City and other areas outside Long Island including as far away as California NPV will encourage the influx of money from outside the key 11 states It will be lobbying on steroids
Then there is the nationalization of voter fraud Some states require proof of citizenship photo IDrsquos no IDrsquos but NPV will eliminate that choice and the containment of fraud that states provide
I personally experienced absentee voter fraud For example one woman voted from Canada and used the address of a local middle school The courts
in NY let these votes stand Even the dead people we found were counted because you only have a few days to prove they are dead and courts want a
death certificate which is hard to get on hundreds of people in a matter of days So in NY dead people vote I happen to know of a number of illegal
aliens who voted as well
In Kansas the Democratic primary of Rizzo vs Royster shows the seriousness of voter fraud A group in support of Rizzo brought in 50 Somali nationals to vote Rizzo won by one vote
ACORN often mobilizes aliens to vote
In Mississippi 23 counties had more people registered to vote than were alive
Examples are endless though some would have us believe fraud is not a widespread problem
There is the costly and lengthy litigation which will ensue if NPV passes Examples are -
What happens constitutionally if a state in the NPV doesnrsquot like the candidate they are forced to give their electoral votes to and pulls out of the
compact though they are not free to do so
NPV does not meet equal protection under the 14th amendment for the states who do not sign on to the NPV
The compact clause Article I suggests it needs congressional approval
Article II delegates power to the states which the NPV overrides
Administratively a non-qualified person not even on the ballot could win it will force states with solid voting requirements to go with those who
allow rampant fraud if they have higher population density the individuality of states that includes early voter registration felons voting voting by mail et cetera will dissolve into the requirements of the heavily populated states Close elections will cause inevitable and lengthy delays
There is even a question of whether some states will be able to vote under the compact
18
The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
(cont)
Litigation will take a long time and could end up leaving the incumbent President in place for months or years
NPV will -
Federalize the vote
Destroy state sovereignty in the Presidential election
Circumvent the Constitution
Disenfranchise voters by giving 11 states the power to decide the election
It will ignite endless litigation
Reduce voting to the lowest common denominator
Give a handful of states supremacy
NPV is a ldquoone size fits allrdquo and it forces many states to abandon the voting procedures and policies that make them unique It focuses on the end
results and sacrifices process

NOTE One of our very own Republican Missouri Legislators introduced a bill in the last legislative session in favor of the National Popular Vote and to eliminate the Electoral College Dwight Scharnhorst (93rd District before re-districting) explained that he did not know that what this bill was about and that is why he introduced it Unfortunately MrScharnhorst is now running unopposed in the newly re-districted 88th District

GETTING INVOLVED IN YOUR PRECINCT
WHY Because we believe ldquoall politics is localrdquo
Become involved at the local level to restore conservative values and principles that will then ldquotrickle UPrdquo to all levels of government
MOPP is not the first to utilize this strategy ndash Phyllis Schlafly implemented the ldquoprecinct strategyrdquo to defeat the ERA 30+ years ago
We believe that Missouri needed to join the ranks of other states with similar efforts including Texas Florida Pennsylvania Nevada and
Utah
We want to encourage Missourians across the State to work in their own communities and counties to make a differencehellip
WHAT MOPPrsquos 4 pronged strategy
1 Key element (hence the name Missouri Precinct Project) Identify the 40-50 of the unfilled precincttownship
committee positions in their county that go unfilled (many of our members have filed to fill these positions across the
state ndash ie St Louis County stat 35 new)
2 Get out the Conservative vote ndash
a MOPP encourages its members to utilize our database (we are in the final stage of determining which program we
will be using) to canvass their neighborhood to identify and register conservative voters educate voters on issues
and candidates and get them to the polls on election day
b MOPP also partners with ldquoChampion The Votehellipencouraging our volunteers to become Champions in the
Champion the Vote program to register unregistered Christian voters (in Missouri in 2008 there was only a

IN SUMMARY If we are ever to get control of our government and change the type of people we get into office and the control that big-
money currently brings we must get directly and actively involved at the grassroots level in the two-party system
It is not going to be easy and it is not going to change overnight But without this approach we are simply reshuffling the
chairs on the deck of the Titanic Do we just want the furniture to look better before we crash into the iceberg or do we
want to change the shiprsquos course to prevent it from sinking
Mission Statement
Restore Constitutional principles and conservative values by engaging conservatives in grassroots politics

The Leftrsquos National Vote Fraud Strategy Exposed Posted By James Simpson On May 7 2012
reprinted from httpwwwaimorgspecial-reportthe-lefts-national-vote-fraud-strategy-exposedprint
This report reveals the Leftrsquos vote fraud strategy for the 2012 elections Like a KGB operation it is thorough multi-faceted and redundant It has overt and covert illegal and legal elements the
latter of which are designed at least in part to facilitate illegal activities later It is a deliberate premeditated comprehensive plan to win the 2012 presidential election at all costs and is in
keeping with the organizational methods associations and ethics of the Community-Organizer-in-Chief Barack Obama
The Left seeks fundamental structural change to our entire form of government In keeping with their amoral means-justifies-ends philosophy they will register any voters dead or alive legal
or illegal who will then vote as many times as possible in order to establish a ldquopermanent progressive majority [1]rdquo As two New York Democrats recently caught in a vote fraud scandal told [2]police ldquovoter fraud is an accepted way of winning electionshelliprdquo
Low income individuals are the perfect dupes for this strategy An expanding welfare state makes them increasingly dependent on government benefits a development that guarantees their vote for liberal-left candidates At the same time people with marginal attachment to society may be less inclined to report illegal activity at the pollsmdashor actually participate The ldquovictimrdquo
narrative promoted in popular culture and press may even encourage such behavior Meanwhile a growing tax burden and public debt suck private enterprise drymdashpushing ever more people
onto the dole
Politicians of both parties are not above engaging in vote fraud But this kind of corruption is relegated to individual campaigns or areas where corrupt political establishments have been able to
develop unchallenged It is not a systematic component of overall national strategy as it is with the Left
This strategy has been under development for decades They have constructed an entire industry devoted to this task and pursue a multifaceted strategy to accomplish it
1 Swamp election officials with overwhelming numbers of registrations at the last possible minute a huge proportion of which are deliberately fraudulent in order to create systematic chaos This accomplishes numerous goals
Makes verification of registrations difficult given the small size and limited budgets of state and local election offices
Provides multiple opportunities for vote fraud
Throws the entire voting process into question providing pretext for lawsuits where concessions may be obtained from election officials
When election officials challenge registrations they are accused of ldquovoter suppressionrdquo This in turn serves complementary goals
o Charge of ldquovoter suppressionrdquo reinforces the Leftrsquos narrative about America as an oppressive ldquoracistrdquo country
o Publicity and lawsuits intimidate election officials who settle on terms favorable to the Left
2 Activists sue state authorities for ldquovoter suppressionrdquo creating further chaos and pressuring them to become de facto taxpayer-funded voter registration operations
3 Eric Holderrsquos Justice Department tacitly supports voter intimidation tactics sues states and backs private lawsuits and resists reform as ldquovoter suppressionrdquo
4 Leftist echo chamber discredits allegations of vote fraud supports ldquosuppressionrdquo theme and promotes advantageous legislation
The ultimate goal is a systematized taxpayer-funded voting machinery that will guarantee maximum participation from the Leftrsquos voting demographic while undermining the ability to manage
elections and prevent fraud

The Leftrsquos National Vote Fraud Strategy Exposed (cont)
Key to understanding the Leftrsquos vote-fraud strategy is the community organizing group ACORN [3] ACORN has become synonymous with corruption complicity [4] in the subprime mortgage crisis [4] and especially vote fraud [5]
ACORN and its voter registration arm Project Vote [6] hire marginal and unskilled workers at very low rates and use incentive bonuses or quotas to encourage them to collect as many voter
registrations as possible [7] The resulting flood of registrations are fraught with duplicates errors and omissions and a large number are overtly fraudulent including names like ldquoDonald Duckrdquo ldquoMickey Mouserdquo ldquoTony Romordquo of the Dallas Cowboys [8] etc [9][2] [10] According to Matthew Vadum [11] the senior editor at Capital Research Center a total of 400000 bogus ACORN
registrations were thrown out in 2008 alone
ACORN was supposedly disbanded in 2010 but resurrected itself under a slew of new names Former ACORN President Bertha Lewis bragged [12] that they created ldquohellip18 bulletproof community-

A MESSAGE FROMhellip
NEWS FROM THE TRENCHES ndash FLORIDA
Champion Tom Coutre and his wife helped set up 25 Voter Registration Drives in 25 different churches in Sumter Marion and Lake Counties prior to Floridas Presidential Primary (PPP) With the help of volunteers from the
churches they distributed about 2000 voter registration forms
Tom reported that the churches with the highest rate of success did these two things
1 The Pastors played the Champion the Vote video at their services and according to Tom people were
shocked by the statistics in the video
2 The Pastors said something like this from the pulpitIf you are not registered to vote or fail to vote you
are not doing your duty as a Christian or as an American citizen They then directed the congregation to pick up a voter registration form and a voter guide after the service
Tom said that in the end registering new voters may not have been the most important result of the effort Tom
believes that the real importance of the drives was that they raised awareness of the power of the primary He
reported that Sumter County Florida had the highest percentage turnout for the PPP While he does not attribute
this directly to the voter registration efforts the Supervisor of Elections said that during the drives they
experienced an unusual number of new voter registrations in which voters changed their party affiliation Let us know what youre doing to champion the vote in your community and beyond

Analysis Conservatives used tactics of the left in Wisconsin win
Nick CareyReuters
657 pm CDT June 6 2012
MADISON Wisconsin (Reuters) - Activists with the conservative Tea Party movement say they owe a lot to their schooling in left-wing
community organizing tactics for the historic Republican victory over the Democrats and their union allies in the Wisconsin recall election
While the Democrats said huge campaign spending by conservatives supporters of Republican Scott Walker allowed him on Tuesday to
become the first governor in US history to survive a recall election the Republicans point to their grassroots get-out-the-vote work as more
important
Advertising can only do so much said Ned Ryun head of the national conservative group American Majority whose sister group American
Majority Action worked closely with Wisconsin activists But talking to someone face to face is a game changer
Combine that personal contact with energizing a mass movement of door knockers and the latest phone software technology to track voters and
you have many of the ingredients for the victory they say
The conservative activists have literally taken a page out of a left-wing radicals guide to organizing - as many have read the late Saul Alinskys
Rules for Radicals
Born in 1909 in Chicago Alinsky - who died in 1972 - began his organizing career in the citys poor Back of the Yards district and is widely
considered the founder of modern community organizing
There was no manual for organizing on the right so we adapted it to the conservative cause said Brown of We the People of the Republic a
Tea Party group based in Madison Wisconsin The left has been good at it for 100 years so what better place to start
Labor unions and liberal activists forced the recall election against Walker because of his successful effort last year to curb the collective
bargaining powers of public sector workers in the Midwestern US state famous for its beer cheese and Harley-Davidsonmotorcycles
The unions with a reputation for excelling at grass-roots organizing not only failed to oust Walker - but he beat his Democratic challenger
Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett by an even bigger margin than his 2010 gubernatorial victory
Out-of-state conservatives flooded Wisconsin with tens of millions of dollars in campaign cash in an election seen as a barometer of the
American political mood ahead of the November 6 presidential election Walker outspend Barrett by more than 7-to-1
Leading US conservative donors made donations to boost Walker
Luke Hilgemann Wisconsin state director of Americans for Prosperity which is backed by conservative billionaire brothers David
and Charles Koch said the group coordinated a network of some 100000 local activists Most of their efforts centered on 17 key counties
Money alone doesnt win elections In the three weeks before the election Walker benefited from a disciplined get-out-the-vote drive mounted
by people associated with the Tea Party movement which reviles President Barack Obama Wisconsin could be a key battleground state in the
November 6 election as Obama seeks re-election against Republican Mitt Romney
A lot of the campaign cash bankrolled a wave of pro-Walker advertising Exit polls taken on Tuesday however indicated the ads may not have
been a decisive factor nearly 90 percent of voters say they chose their candidate before the ad barrage
Not only is the Tea Party alive and kicking those guys ran a great get-out-the-vote campaign said Ford OConnell a Republican strategist and
chairman of the CivicForum PAC political group They have given away the secret recipe for what could win the election for Mitt Romney
This is a paradigm shift added Matt Kibbe president of FreedomWorks a conservative group chaired by former Republican House of
Representatives Majority leader Dick Armey that provides training and resources to Tea Party activists If the grassroots embrace a cause
they make all the difference
11
Analysis Conservatives used tactics of the left in Wisconsin win (cont)
UNION FAULTS
Analysts said Democrats and unions made fundamental mistakes in Wisconsin Instead of uniting behind one candidate to challenge Walker
Democrats waged a divisive primary and most unions did not back the eventual winner Tom Barrett who has had his own disputes with unions
as mayor of Milwaukee
The Democrats lost valuable time and money while Walker was traveling the country collecting millions of dollars to back his election effort
They also may have miscalculated in choosing Barrett who previously had lost to Walker in 2010
If they are going to recall a governor it hardly makes sense to try to challenge him with a candidate who lost against him last time said Marick
Masters a professor of business and director of labor studies at Wayne State University in Detroit
On Wednesday top labor leaders such as AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka and Teamsters General President Jim Hoffa were not
acknowledging any mistakes publicly and dismissed the idea that events in Wisconsin had a broad implications for the labor movements future
Walker needed every last dime and every last divisive TV ad to maintain a weakened hold on his office Trumka said
Success in Wisconsin this year came with the aid of technology such as a new get-out-the-vote app called Gravity that American Majority Action
provided free to Tea Party activists as conservatives targeted like-minded voters
Prior to the election Tea Party activists reported encountering voters who backed Walker but would be out of state on the day of the election So
activists helped them fill out absentee ballots
We would have lost those votes if we hadnt showed up said Matt Batzel state director of American Majority Action Thats what this is all
about
Note The above article documents how the grassroots played an integral role in the Wisconsin recall A new ldquoget out the voterdquo app called ldquoGravityrdquohellipand groups like American Majority and True the Vote were all part of a unified effort with many other grassroots organizations both local and national to help achieve victory The sophistication of these programs coupled with the manpower and passion of the grassroots movement was a ldquowinningrdquo combination These same tools and strategies will be showcased at our MOPP ldquoWinning in Novemberrdquo seminar that will take place on July 14 2012 We hope you make plans to attend and join us to learn how you can utilize these tools for victory in November

November Is a Plebiscite On the American Revolution
REPRINTED FROM Tuesday May 01 2012
Election Day 2012 will not be a presidential election It will be a plebiscite
Americans will not only be voting for a president (and a House and a third of the Senate) They will be participating in a plebiscite on the definition of America If Americans re-elect the Democrat Barack Obama they will have announced that America should be like Western European countries -- governed by left-wing values Americans will have decided that Americas value system -- Liberty In God We Trust E Pluribus Unum -- should be replaced The election in November is therefore a plebiscite on the American Revolution The usual description of presidential elections -- the most important in our lifetime -- is true this time In fact it may be the most important election since the Civil War and possibly since Americas founding
The left knows what is at stake And the most left-wing president in American history knows what is at stake Candidate Obama announced shortly before the 2008 election We are five days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America He described the lefts aim perfectly to fundamentally transform America It seeks to replace Liberty In God We Trust and E Pluribus Unum That is what fundamentally transform means In fact those words are proof that American values and leftist values are fundamentally opposed to one another
The right on the other hand seeks to maintain Americas values Conservatives want to improve America but as its name implies conservatism seeks to conserve not transform Liberty means first and foremost limited government -- because bigger government means less individual liberty In God We Trust means that America must be rooted in Creator-based values There are no inalienable rights if no rights derive from God And E Pluribus Unum means the assumption of an American identity by all citizens regardless of their racial ethnic or national background
The left seeks to replace Liberty with Equality Material inequality is the great evil and if individual liberty needs to be sacrificed to attain equality so be it Creator-based values are to be replaced by government-based values God-fearing is to be replaced by State-fearing God must be removed from schools and wherever else the left can succeed in doing so E Pluribus Unum is to be replaced by multiculturalism For leftism the very words American identity conjure up chauvinism if not fascism
For these reasons this election is not just a choice between a Democrat and a Republican It is between Americanism and leftism This does not mean that left-wing Americans are un-American or unpatriotic -- or that they do not love their country The conflict between Americanism and leftism is between ideas not between decent and indecent people But it is an unfortunate fact of life that decent people can believe in bad ideas If this were not so few of the greatest evils would ever have occurred
If this election is indeed a plebiscite on America Mitt Romney cannot campaign solely or even primarily on the state of the economy First what if the economy even slightly improves What happens then to Governor Romneys appeal Moreover relying for ones success on the suffering of ones fellow Americans is morally as well as politically perilous Second Americans want to vote for more than an economic Mr Fix-It as desirable as such a person is
So too Mr Romney should not overly personalize his campaign He is running against Obama but Barack Obama is not the biggest issue The lefts desire to transform America is the biggest issue Barack Obama is to be opposed because he is a man of the left Mitt Romney and the entire Republican Party need to describe this election as the plebiscite on America that it is The most urgent task in American life is to make clear and then repeat as often as possible leftist values and American values are in conflict
Instead of asking Are you better off than you were three years ago Every Republican needs to ask every day Do you want to fundamentally transform America If they do Barack Obama is their man If they dont Mitt Romney is
NOTE The Missouri Caucuses are completed A lot of people got involved this year and were very passionate about the various
candidates Not everybody is happy One even hears that voting for the supposed nominee Mitt Romney is no different than Barack Obama So why bother to vote We should all remember that the next President will probably be in a position to nominate up to four Supreme Court justices So keep this in mind when you make your decisions about who to support Current age of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg - 79 years Stephen Breyer - 73 years
Anthony Kennedy - 75 years Antonin Scalia - 76 tears We cannot afford to have a President Obama replace any Supreme Court Justices but especially not a Antonin Scalia Especially if we do not have at least 41 Senators that would be willing to stand up and vote no for any Supreme Court nominee that does not have true constitutional credentials Supposedly Mitt Romney has appointed a group of individuals to review possible candidates for the Supreme Court This is encouraging especially since the man heading this group is Robert Borck one of the best constitutional jurists this country has ever produced

Obamas Second Term Transformation Plans By Steve McCann
The 2012 election has often been described as the most pivotal since 1860 This statement is not hyperbole If Barack Obama is re-elected the
United States will never be the same nor will it be able to re-capture its once lofty status as the most dominant nation in the history of mankind The overwhelming majority of Americans do not understand that Obamas first term was dedicated to putting in place executive power to enable him
and the administration to fulfill the campaign promise of transforming America in his second term regardless of which political party controls
Congress That is why his re-election team is virtually ignoring the plight of incumbent or prospective Democratic Party office holders
The most significant accomplishment of Obamas first term is to make Congress irrelevant Under the myopic and blindly loyal leadership of Harry
Reid and Nancy Pelosi the Democrats have succeeded in creating an imperial and in a second term a potential dictatorial presidency
During the first two years of the Obama administration when the Democrats overwhelming controlled both Houses of Congress and the media was in
an Obama worshipping stupor a myriad of laws were passed and actions taken which transferred virtually unlimited power to the executive branch The birth of multi-thousand page laws was not an aberration This tactic was adopted so the bureaucracy controlled by Obama appointees would
have sole discretion in interpreting vaguely written laws and enforcing thousands of pages of regulations they and not Congress would subsequently
write
For example in the 2700 pages of ObamaCare there are more than 2500 references to the Secretary of Health and Human Services There are more
than 700 instances when he or she is instructed that they shall do something and more than 200 times when they may take at their sole discretion
some form of regulatory action On 139 occasions the law mentions that the Secretary determines In essence one person appointed by and
reporting to the president will be in charge of the health care of 310 million Americans once ObamaCare is fully operational in 2014
The same is true in the 2319 pages of the Dodd-Frank Financial Reform Act which confers nearly unlimited power on various agencies to control by
fiat the nations financial banking and investment sectors The bill also creates new agencies such as the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau not
subject to any oversight by Congress This overall process was repeated numerous times with other legislation all with the intent of granting
unfettered power to the executive branch controlled Barack Obama and his radical associates
Additionally the Obama administration has through its unilaterally determined rule making and regulatory powers created laws out of whole cloth
The Environmental Protection Agency on a near daily basis issues new regulations clearly out of their purview in order to modify and change
environmental laws previously passed and to impose a radical green agenda never approved by Congress The same is true of the Energy and Interior
Departments among many others
None of these extra-constitutional actions have been challenged by Congress The left in America knows this usurpation of power is nearly
impossible to reverse unless stopped in its early stages
It is clearly the mindset of this administration and its appointees that Congress is merely a nuisance and can be ignored after they were able to take
full advantage of the useful idiots in the Democrat controlled House and Senate in 2009-2010 and the Democrat Senate in the current Congress Additionally Barack Obama knows after his re-election a Republican controlled House and Senate will not be able to enact any legislation to roll
back the power previously granted to the Executive Branch or usurped by them His veto will not be overridden as there will always be at least 145
Democratic members of the House or 34 in the Senate in agreement with or intimidated by an administration more than willing to use Chicago style
political tactics
The stalemate between the Executive and Legislative Branches will inure to the benefit of Barack Obama and his fellow leftists The most significant power Congress has is the control of the purse-strings as all spending must be approved by them However once re-elected
Barack Obama as confirmed by his willingness to do or say anything and his unscrupulous re-election tactics would not only threaten government
shutdowns but would deliberately withhold payments to those dependent on government support as a means of intimidating and forcing a Republican
controlled Congress to surrender to his demands thus neutering their ability to control the administration through spending constraints Further this administration has shown contempt for the courts by ignoring various court orders eg the Gulf of Mexico oil drilling moratorium as
well as stonewalling subpoenas and requests issued by Congress The Eric Holder Justice Department has become the epitome of corruption as part
of the most dishonest and deceitful administration in American history In a second term the arrogance of Barack Obama and his minions will
become more blatant as he will not have to be concerned with re-election
Who will be there to enforce the rule of law a Supreme Court ruling or the Constitution No one Barack Obama and his fellow-travelers will be
unchallenged as they run roughshod over the American people
Many Republicans and conservatives dissatisfied with the prospect of Mitt Romney as the nominee for president are instead focused on re-taking the
House and Senate That goal while worthy and necessary is meaningless unless Barack Obama is defeated The nation is not dealing with a person
of character and integrity but someone of single-minded purpose and overwhelming narcissism Judging by his actions words and deeds during his
first term he does not intend to work with Congress either Republican or Democrat in his second term but rather to force his radical agenda on the
American people through the power he has usurped or been granted
The governmental structure of the United States was set up by the founders in the hope that over the years only those people of high moral character
and integrity would assume the reins of power However knowing that was not always possible they dispersed power over three distinct and
independent branches as a check on each other
14
Obamas Second Term Transformation Plans (cont)
What they could not imagine is the surrender and abdication of its constitutional duty by the preeminent governmental branch the Congress to a
chief executive devoid of any character or integrity coupled with a judiciary essentially powerless to enforce the law when the chief executive ignores
them
Conservatives Libertarians the Republican Party and Mitt Romney must come to grips with this moment in time and their historical role in denying
Barack Obama and his minions their ultimate goal All resources must be directed at that end-game and not merely controlling Congress and the
various committee chairmanships

Winning the Youth Vote
Posted by Mindy Reifer 12pc on May 03 2012 middot Flag
After clearly indicating their strategic ploys to secure the women vote this election cycle Democrats are now sharpening their rhetoric aimed at reclaiming the youth vote President Obama directed his April campaigning towards college students focusing on college-loan rates and other university-related political issues
Since the 2008 election results were first analyzed the prominence of the youth vote has weighed heavily on both Democratic and Republican candidatesrsquo campaign decisions The popular myth circulating is that for Obamarsquos 2008 win the youth vote turned out in remarkably unprecedented numbers And all Obama has to do is continue this pattern to secure his
electoral victory
But that might be easier said than done this time around
First Obama did not in fact grow the youth vote very much and certainly not in unprecedented numbers What Obama actually did accomplish in 2008 was to turn the youth vote largely
away from Republicans securing a majority of votes from voters aged 18-29 The actual growth of the youth vote though was just 1
Posting on the Washington Postrsquos website on April 24 Chris Cillizza and Aaron Blakeat demonstrate that while political organizations claimed that Obamarsquos election was in part due to a more than 22 million youth voter turnout increase ldquoyoung voters comprised 18 percent of the electorate in 2008 a one-point improvement from their share of the electorate in 2004 2000
and 1996 but nowhere near the heights they reached in the 1980srdquo
Misrepresentation of Obamarsquos success at the polls led to many dishonest facts being promulgated to bolster the supposed turnout-increasing abilities of our president Even before the
finally tally in 2008 Heather Smith of Rock the Vote (as quoted by Melissa Dahl on MSNBCcom) said ldquoWe expected record turnout and that is what wersquore seeing right nowrdquo
Hindsight proved that it was not at all a record turnout certainly not when the 1980 and 1984 Reagan Revolution is considered but it was a record margin in favor of the Democratic nominee And this youth vote clobbering likely tilted the election in Obamarsquos favor Dahl says that ldquoyoung voters preferred Obama over John McCain by 68 percent to 30 percent mdash the
highest share of the youth vote obtained by any candidate since exit polls began reporting results by age in 1976 according to CIRCLE a non-partisan organizationrdquo
It is not only Obama and Democrats who are going after the youth vote At the same time that Obama was appealing to his prime target Romney was giving stump speeches about
student loans and college costs (In pure campaign-mode Obama demanded that Congress keep student loan rates low something that Republicans in Congress have also supported)
It remains to be seen if Obama will once again secure the youth vote or by what margin
This time around Republicans have a stronger platform to run on Obamarsquos record Statistics released by the Republican Study Committee on April 30 show that more than half of recent
college graduates are unemployed or underemployed In fact 85 of college graduates will be moving back home with their parents hardly the ideal goal of a college grad
Many of the youngest of 2008rsquos voters have now graduated college and are finding themselves enveloped in student debt and facing the harsh realities of the Obama recession And of
course the older end of the youth vote have now matured somewhat witnessing first-hand the destruction Obamarsquos policies have wrought on our economy and foreign image
And it is up to this very demographic to perhaps effect the biggest change in the election outcome this November But unfortunately youth voters are still favoring Obama over Romney by a strong margin strong enough to win him reelection An April 2012 Washington Post-ABC survey showed Obama leading Romney by 21 points among 18-29-year olds Romney is
correct in assuming he needs to appeal to the youth vote not just to grow the turnout but more importantly to urge deflections over to the Republicans side in order to secure the election
Romney needs to focus on the economy not just student loan rates He needs to remind young voters that they will need jobs to pay back their loans no matter how low interest rates remain And moving back home with Mom and Dad is no way to spend onersquos first year as a college graduate America needs to once again be a nation of unique unprecedented
economy opportunity and a 2012 ldquoReaganrdquo revolution is necessary to put the US back on track to prosperity

The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
December 9 2011
By Sara Noble
ldquoThe elective franchise if guarded as the ark of our safety will peaceably dissipate all combinations to subvert a Constitution dictated by the
wisdom and resting on the will of the peoplerdquo ~ Thomas Jefferson
While Americans are focused on the election the Progressive wing of the Democratic Party funded by two eccentric businessmen and a George Soros son are stealthily orchestrating the decimation of the voting process and states rights through the National Popular Vote Compact (NPV)
The NPV is a popular sound bite that will do the opposite of what it is portrayed to do ndash make each Americanrsquos vote count It does not do that
because it keeps the electoral college but misuses it What it actually does is create a ldquoforced mergerrdquo between heavily populated states and less populated states
Currently moving at a rapid pace the NPV is a state-by-state initiative that will force states to allocate their electoral votes to the winner of
the national popular vote rather than the winner of the popular vote in their state
NPV will greatly reduce the power of most states in that the highly populated states will be able to gain the electoral votes and in fact 11 states could decide the Presidential election
California Texas New York Florida Illinois Pennsylvania Ohio Michigan Georgia North Carolina and New Jersey have 57 of the votes cast
in 2008 and together they have 270 electoral votes the amount necessary to win the election Do you want these states to decide who is President
while other states have no say
Is this what the Founding Fathers wanted An election based on demographics and geographics
Why is the current structure of the electoral college so important Our Founding Fathers believed that the state by state disbursed system
maintained the sovereignty of the states and disallowed Federalism The containment of ldquomischiefrdquo or voter fraud of the ACORN type is contained within states instead of being spread nationally The electoral college provides balance and firewalls against voter fraud
Do you believe all states should be purple and not red or blue Then you do NOT want the NPV Supporters of the NPV claim it will favor
Republicans in that there are more underutilized Republican votes than Democratic votes which I doubt since the heavily populated states are predominantly liberal Whether this is true or not does not matter
17
The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
(cont)
We should not favor one side or the other in the United States of America
The initiative has been approved by half the states necessary to pass it The states that have approved it equal 70 electoral votes and only 138 are needed for it to pass It is well on its way to becoming law
NPV circumvents the Constitution by allowing individual states to change the Constitution without an amendment However the compact clause of
the Constitution does not allow any state to ldquoenter into any Agreement or Compact with another Staterdquo Liberal states like California could join with
Illinois New York and another 8 other liberal states forming a super bloc that would give all their electoral votes to the winner forming the bloc that could take the election
Article V specifically states that the Constitution must be amended ldquono State without its Consent shall be deprived of its equal Suffrage in the Senaterdquo The NPV as structured will immediately take effect without an amendment and it will probably be in time for the 2012 election
NPV has bipartisan support and the opposition should be bipartisan as well It is not a partisan issue it is about states rights and the power of each individual guaranteed by the electoral college
NPV will have many unwanted side effects The states that decide the election will probably be the states that receive the federal dollars because
their votes count They will likely be the only states that candidates will visit
Another problematic side effect reared its ugly head in my own Congressional district on Long Island Our congressman Tim Bishop received most
of his funding from New York City and other areas outside Long Island including as far away as California NPV will encourage the influx of money from outside the key 11 states It will be lobbying on steroids
Then there is the nationalization of voter fraud Some states require proof of citizenship photo IDrsquos no IDrsquos but NPV will eliminate that choice and the containment of fraud that states provide
I personally experienced absentee voter fraud For example one woman voted from Canada and used the address of a local middle school The courts
in NY let these votes stand Even the dead people we found were counted because you only have a few days to prove they are dead and courts want a
death certificate which is hard to get on hundreds of people in a matter of days So in NY dead people vote I happen to know of a number of illegal
aliens who voted as well
In Kansas the Democratic primary of Rizzo vs Royster shows the seriousness of voter fraud A group in support of Rizzo brought in 50 Somali nationals to vote Rizzo won by one vote
ACORN often mobilizes aliens to vote
In Mississippi 23 counties had more people registered to vote than were alive
Examples are endless though some would have us believe fraud is not a widespread problem
There is the costly and lengthy litigation which will ensue if NPV passes Examples are -
What happens constitutionally if a state in the NPV doesnrsquot like the candidate they are forced to give their electoral votes to and pulls out of the
compact though they are not free to do so
NPV does not meet equal protection under the 14th amendment for the states who do not sign on to the NPV
The compact clause Article I suggests it needs congressional approval
Article II delegates power to the states which the NPV overrides
Administratively a non-qualified person not even on the ballot could win it will force states with solid voting requirements to go with those who
allow rampant fraud if they have higher population density the individuality of states that includes early voter registration felons voting voting by mail et cetera will dissolve into the requirements of the heavily populated states Close elections will cause inevitable and lengthy delays
There is even a question of whether some states will be able to vote under the compact
18
The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
(cont)
Litigation will take a long time and could end up leaving the incumbent President in place for months or years
NPV will -
Federalize the vote
Destroy state sovereignty in the Presidential election
Circumvent the Constitution
Disenfranchise voters by giving 11 states the power to decide the election
It will ignite endless litigation
Reduce voting to the lowest common denominator
Give a handful of states supremacy
NPV is a ldquoone size fits allrdquo and it forces many states to abandon the voting procedures and policies that make them unique It focuses on the end
results and sacrifices process

NOTE One of our very own Republican Missouri Legislators introduced a bill in the last legislative session in favor of the National Popular Vote and to eliminate the Electoral College Dwight Scharnhorst (93rd District before re-districting) explained that he did not know that what this bill was about and that is why he introduced it Unfortunately MrScharnhorst is now running unopposed in the newly re-districted 88th District

GETTING INVOLVED IN YOUR PRECINCT
WHY Because we believe ldquoall politics is localrdquo
Become involved at the local level to restore conservative values and principles that will then ldquotrickle UPrdquo to all levels of government
MOPP is not the first to utilize this strategy ndash Phyllis Schlafly implemented the ldquoprecinct strategyrdquo to defeat the ERA 30+ years ago
We believe that Missouri needed to join the ranks of other states with similar efforts including Texas Florida Pennsylvania Nevada and
Utah
We want to encourage Missourians across the State to work in their own communities and counties to make a differencehellip
WHAT MOPPrsquos 4 pronged strategy
1 Key element (hence the name Missouri Precinct Project) Identify the 40-50 of the unfilled precincttownship
committee positions in their county that go unfilled (many of our members have filed to fill these positions across the
state ndash ie St Louis County stat 35 new)
2 Get out the Conservative vote ndash
a MOPP encourages its members to utilize our database (we are in the final stage of determining which program we
will be using) to canvass their neighborhood to identify and register conservative voters educate voters on issues
and candidates and get them to the polls on election day
b MOPP also partners with ldquoChampion The Votehellipencouraging our volunteers to become Champions in the
Champion the Vote program to register unregistered Christian voters (in Missouri in 2008 there was only a
4000 difference between the 2 presidential candidateshellipthatrsquos a pretty close margin but yet there are
approximately 150000 unregistered Christians in the State)
Go here to become a ldquoChampionrdquo httpchampionthevotecomheadquartersmissouri
3 Encourage becoming a poll worker to help prevent voter fraud
4 Build and maintain a database in order to form a more effective coalition united voice for Conservatives across the State

IN SUMMARY If we are ever to get control of our government and change the type of people we get into office and the control that big-
money currently brings we must get directly and actively involved at the grassroots level in the two-party system
It is not going to be easy and it is not going to change overnight But without this approach we are simply reshuffling the
chairs on the deck of the Titanic Do we just want the furniture to look better before we crash into the iceberg or do we
want to change the shiprsquos course to prevent it from sinking
Mission Statement
Restore Constitutional principles and conservative values by engaging conservatives in grassroots politics

Who Counts in 2012 A Message from True the Vote
How are our votes really counted And who really counts them Recently reports have surfaced about the purchase of SOE a Tampa FL based vote tabulation company by SCYTL an international vote tabulation company based in Barcelona Spain
So Now what We at True the Vote believe that the best safeguard against any potential problems in our elections is an active organized educated citizenry who are willing to take personal responsibility stand in whatever gaps in our electoral system exist and work to improve them Now is not the time for panic Lets get some answers figure out whats going on then spread the word We are asking Congress and the FEC to address what if any role they had in approving the SCYTLSOE purchase and what the impact will be if any to online military vote processing
Heres how you can help
1 Contact your Secretary of State and ask them to provide a statement on how votes are tabulated and reported in your state and if SCYTLSOE is involved at any point in the process You can contact your Secretary of State here Please email us the responses you receive we will post them at wwwtruethevoteorg You can email us here
Here are the Secretary of State responses received thus far TEXAS ARIZONA ALASKA MISSOURI ALABAMA OHIO WASHINGTON 2 Volunteer to help True the Vote Commit to get involved to volunteer at the polls to record the final vote tallies at the polls where you work to track those tallies make sure they are being accurately reported and be prepared to take meaningful and swift action if breaches are found to exist We wont change the electoral process until we are willing to roll up our sleeves and take responsibility for it Sustained responsibility
3 Never forget we are not victims Victims have no options We do Though stories like this will shake us up we must remain resolved to keep level heads acknowledge real problems when they exist work towards solutions and not get caught up in rumor or manufactured hype The days ahead will test the mettle of us all But see victory not defeat
The Leftrsquos National Vote Fraud Strategy Exposed Posted By James Simpson On May 7 2012
reprinted from httpwwwaimorgspecial-reportthe-lefts-national-vote-fraud-strategy-exposedprint
This report reveals the Leftrsquos vote fraud strategy for the 2012 elections Like a KGB operation it is thorough multi-faceted and redundant It has overt and covert illegal and legal elements the
latter of which are designed at least in part to facilitate illegal activities later It is a deliberate premeditated comprehensive plan to win the 2012 presidential election at all costs and is in
keeping with the organizational methods associations and ethics of the Community-Organizer-in-Chief Barack Obama
The Left seeks fundamental structural change to our entire form of government In keeping with their amoral means-justifies-ends philosophy they will register any voters dead or alive legal
or illegal who will then vote as many times as possible in order to establish a ldquopermanent progressive majority [1]rdquo As two New York Democrats recently caught in a vote fraud scandal told [2]police ldquovoter fraud is an accepted way of winning electionshelliprdquo
Low income individuals are the perfect dupes for this strategy An expanding welfare state makes them increasingly dependent on government benefits a development that guarantees their vote for liberal-left candidates At the same time people with marginal attachment to society may be less inclined to report illegal activity at the pollsmdashor actually participate The ldquovictimrdquo
narrative promoted in popular culture and press may even encourage such behavior Meanwhile a growing tax burden and public debt suck private enterprise drymdashpushing ever more people
onto the dole
Politicians of both parties are not above engaging in vote fraud But this kind of corruption is relegated to individual campaigns or areas where corrupt political establishments have been able to
develop unchallenged It is not a systematic component of overall national strategy as it is with the Left
This strategy has been under development for decades They have constructed an entire industry devoted to this task and pursue a multifaceted strategy to accomplish it
1 Swamp election officials with overwhelming numbers of registrations at the last possible minute a huge proportion of which are deliberately fraudulent in order to create systematic chaos This accomplishes numerous goals
Makes verification of registrations difficult given the small size and limited budgets of state and local election offices
Provides multiple opportunities for vote fraud
Throws the entire voting process into question providing pretext for lawsuits where concessions may be obtained from election officials
When election officials challenge registrations they are accused of ldquovoter suppressionrdquo This in turn serves complementary goals
o Charge of ldquovoter suppressionrdquo reinforces the Leftrsquos narrative about America as an oppressive ldquoracistrdquo country
o Publicity and lawsuits intimidate election officials who settle on terms favorable to the Left
2 Activists sue state authorities for ldquovoter suppressionrdquo creating further chaos and pressuring them to become de facto taxpayer-funded voter registration operations

Key to understanding the Leftrsquos vote-fraud strategy is the community organizing group ACORN [3] ACORN has become synonymous with corruption complicity [4] in the subprime mortgage crisis [4] and especially vote fraud [5]
ACORN and its voter registration arm Project Vote [6] hire marginal and unskilled workers at very low rates and use incentive bonuses or quotas to encourage them to collect as many voter
registrations as possible [7] The resulting flood of registrations are fraught with duplicates errors and omissions and a large number are overtly fraudulent including names like ldquoDonald Duckrdquo ldquoMickey Mouserdquo ldquoTony Romordquo of the Dallas Cowboys [8] etc [9][2] [10] According to Matthew Vadum [11] the senior editor at Capital Research Center a total of 400000 bogus ACORN
registrations were thrown out in 2008 alone
ACORN was supposedly disbanded in 2010 but resurrected itself under a slew of new names Former ACORN President Bertha Lewis bragged [12] that they created ldquohellip18 bulletproof community-

Champion Tom Coutre and his wife helped set up 25 Voter Registration Drives in 25 different churches in Sumter Marion and Lake Counties prior to Floridas Presidential Primary (PPP) With the help of volunteers from the
churches they distributed about 2000 voter registration forms
Tom reported that the churches with the highest rate of success did these two things
1 The Pastors played the Champion the Vote video at their services and according to Tom people were
shocked by the statistics in the video
2 The Pastors said something like this from the pulpitIf you are not registered to vote or fail to vote you
are not doing your duty as a Christian or as an American citizen They then directed the congregation to pick up a voter registration form and a voter guide after the service
Tom said that in the end registering new voters may not have been the most important result of the effort Tom
believes that the real importance of the drives was that they raised awareness of the power of the primary He
reported that Sumter County Florida had the highest percentage turnout for the PPP While he does not attribute
this directly to the voter registration efforts the Supervisor of Elections said that during the drives they
experienced an unusual number of new voter registrations in which voters changed their party affiliation Let us know what youre doing to champion the vote in your community and beyond

Analysis Conservatives used tactics of the left in Wisconsin win
Nick CareyReuters
657 pm CDT June 6 2012
MADISON Wisconsin (Reuters) - Activists with the conservative Tea Party movement say they owe a lot to their schooling in left-wing
community organizing tactics for the historic Republican victory over the Democrats and their union allies in the Wisconsin recall election
While the Democrats said huge campaign spending by conservatives supporters of Republican Scott Walker allowed him on Tuesday to
become the first governor in US history to survive a recall election the Republicans point to their grassroots get-out-the-vote work as more
important
Advertising can only do so much said Ned Ryun head of the national conservative group American Majority whose sister group American
Majority Action worked closely with Wisconsin activists But talking to someone face to face is a game changer
Combine that personal contact with energizing a mass movement of door knockers and the latest phone software technology to track voters and
you have many of the ingredients for the victory they say
The conservative activists have literally taken a page out of a left-wing radicals guide to organizing - as many have read the late Saul Alinskys
Rules for Radicals
Born in 1909 in Chicago Alinsky - who died in 1972 - began his organizing career in the citys poor Back of the Yards district and is widely
considered the founder of modern community organizing
There was no manual for organizing on the right so we adapted it to the conservative cause said Brown of We the People of the Republic a
Tea Party group based in Madison Wisconsin The left has been good at it for 100 years so what better place to start
Labor unions and liberal activists forced the recall election against Walker because of his successful effort last year to curb the collective
bargaining powers of public sector workers in the Midwestern US state famous for its beer cheese and Harley-Davidsonmotorcycles
The unions with a reputation for excelling at grass-roots organizing not only failed to oust Walker - but he beat his Democratic challenger
Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett by an even bigger margin than his 2010 gubernatorial victory
Out-of-state conservatives flooded Wisconsin with tens of millions of dollars in campaign cash in an election seen as a barometer of the
American political mood ahead of the November 6 presidential election Walker outspend Barrett by more than 7-to-1
Leading US conservative donors made donations to boost Walker
Luke Hilgemann Wisconsin state director of Americans for Prosperity which is backed by conservative billionaire brothers David
and Charles Koch said the group coordinated a network of some 100000 local activists Most of their efforts centered on 17 key counties
Money alone doesnt win elections In the three weeks before the election Walker benefited from a disciplined get-out-the-vote drive mounted
by people associated with the Tea Party movement which reviles President Barack Obama Wisconsin could be a key battleground state in the
November 6 election as Obama seeks re-election against Republican Mitt Romney
A lot of the campaign cash bankrolled a wave of pro-Walker advertising Exit polls taken on Tuesday however indicated the ads may not have
been a decisive factor nearly 90 percent of voters say they chose their candidate before the ad barrage
Not only is the Tea Party alive and kicking those guys ran a great get-out-the-vote campaign said Ford OConnell a Republican strategist and
chairman of the CivicForum PAC political group They have given away the secret recipe for what could win the election for Mitt Romney
This is a paradigm shift added Matt Kibbe president of FreedomWorks a conservative group chaired by former Republican House of
Representatives Majority leader Dick Armey that provides training and resources to Tea Party activists If the grassroots embrace a cause
they make all the difference

Analysis Conservatives used tactics of the left in Wisconsin win (cont)
UNION FAULTS
Analysts said Democrats and unions made fundamental mistakes in Wisconsin Instead of uniting behind one candidate to challenge Walker
Democrats waged a divisive primary and most unions did not back the eventual winner Tom Barrett who has had his own disputes with unions
as mayor of Milwaukee
The Democrats lost valuable time and money while Walker was traveling the country collecting millions of dollars to back his election effort
They also may have miscalculated in choosing Barrett who previously had lost to Walker in 2010
If they are going to recall a governor it hardly makes sense to try to challenge him with a candidate who lost against him last time said Marick
Masters a professor of business and director of labor studies at Wayne State University in Detroit
On Wednesday top labor leaders such as AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka and Teamsters General President Jim Hoffa were not
acknowledging any mistakes publicly and dismissed the idea that events in Wisconsin had a broad implications for the labor movements future
Walker needed every last dime and every last divisive TV ad to maintain a weakened hold on his office Trumka said
Success in Wisconsin this year came with the aid of technology such as a new get-out-the-vote app called Gravity that American Majority Action
provided free to Tea Party activists as conservatives targeted like-minded voters
Prior to the election Tea Party activists reported encountering voters who backed Walker but would be out of state on the day of the election So
activists helped them fill out absentee ballots
We would have lost those votes if we hadnt showed up said Matt Batzel state director of American Majority Action Thats what this is all
about
Note The above article documents how the grassroots played an integral role in the Wisconsin recall A new ldquoget out the voterdquo app called ldquoGravityrdquohellipand groups like American Majority and True the Vote were all part of a unified effort with many other grassroots organizations both local and national to help achieve victory The sophistication of these programs coupled with the manpower and passion of the grassroots movement was a ldquowinningrdquo combination These same tools and strategies will be showcased at our MOPP ldquoWinning in Novemberrdquo seminar that will take place on July 14 2012 We hope you make plans to attend and join us to learn how you can utilize these tools for victory in November

November Is a Plebiscite On the American Revolution
REPRINTED FROM Tuesday May 01 2012
Election Day 2012 will not be a presidential election It will be a plebiscite
Americans will not only be voting for a president (and a House and a third of the Senate) They will be participating in a plebiscite on the definition of America If Americans re-elect the Democrat Barack Obama they will have announced that America should be like Western European countries -- governed by left-wing values Americans will have decided that Americas value system -- Liberty In God We Trust E Pluribus Unum -- should be replaced The election in November is therefore a plebiscite on the American Revolution The usual description of presidential elections -- the most important in our lifetime -- is true this time In fact it may be the most important election since the Civil War and possibly since Americas founding
The left knows what is at stake And the most left-wing president in American history knows what is at stake Candidate Obama announced shortly before the 2008 election We are five days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America He described the lefts aim perfectly to fundamentally transform America It seeks to replace Liberty In God We Trust and E Pluribus Unum That is what fundamentally transform means In fact those words are proof that American values and leftist values are fundamentally opposed to one another
The right on the other hand seeks to maintain Americas values Conservatives want to improve America but as its name implies conservatism seeks to conserve not transform Liberty means first and foremost limited government -- because bigger government means less individual liberty In God We Trust means that America must be rooted in Creator-based values There are no inalienable rights if no rights derive from God And E Pluribus Unum means the assumption of an American identity by all citizens regardless of their racial ethnic or national background
The left seeks to replace Liberty with Equality Material inequality is the great evil and if individual liberty needs to be sacrificed to attain equality so be it Creator-based values are to be replaced by government-based values God-fearing is to be replaced by State-fearing God must be removed from schools and wherever else the left can succeed in doing so E Pluribus Unum is to be replaced by multiculturalism For leftism the very words American identity conjure up chauvinism if not fascism
For these reasons this election is not just a choice between a Democrat and a Republican It is between Americanism and leftism This does not mean that left-wing Americans are un-American or unpatriotic -- or that they do not love their country The conflict between Americanism and leftism is between ideas not between decent and indecent people But it is an unfortunate fact of life that decent people can believe in bad ideas If this were not so few of the greatest evils would ever have occurred
If this election is indeed a plebiscite on America Mitt Romney cannot campaign solely or even primarily on the state of the economy First what if the economy even slightly improves What happens then to Governor Romneys appeal Moreover relying for ones success on the suffering of ones fellow Americans is morally as well as politically perilous Second Americans want to vote for more than an economic Mr Fix-It as desirable as such a person is
So too Mr Romney should not overly personalize his campaign He is running against Obama but Barack Obama is not the biggest issue The lefts desire to transform America is the biggest issue Barack Obama is to be opposed because he is a man of the left Mitt Romney and the entire Republican Party need to describe this election as the plebiscite on America that it is The most urgent task in American life is to make clear and then repeat as often as possible leftist values and American values are in conflict
Instead of asking Are you better off than you were three years ago Every Republican needs to ask every day Do you want to fundamentally transform America If they do Barack Obama is their man If they dont Mitt Romney is
NOTE The Missouri Caucuses are completed A lot of people got involved this year and were very passionate about the various
candidates Not everybody is happy One even hears that voting for the supposed nominee Mitt Romney is no different than Barack Obama So why bother to vote We should all remember that the next President will probably be in a position to nominate up to four Supreme Court justices So keep this in mind when you make your decisions about who to support Current age of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg - 79 years Stephen Breyer - 73 years
Anthony Kennedy - 75 years Antonin Scalia - 76 tears We cannot afford to have a President Obama replace any Supreme Court Justices but especially not a Antonin Scalia Especially if we do not have at least 41 Senators that would be willing to stand up and vote no for any Supreme Court nominee that does not have true constitutional credentials Supposedly Mitt Romney has appointed a group of individuals to review possible candidates for the Supreme Court This is encouraging especially since the man heading this group is Robert Borck one of the best constitutional jurists this country has ever produced

Obamas Second Term Transformation Plans By Steve McCann
The 2012 election has often been described as the most pivotal since 1860 This statement is not hyperbole If Barack Obama is re-elected the
United States will never be the same nor will it be able to re-capture its once lofty status as the most dominant nation in the history of mankind The overwhelming majority of Americans do not understand that Obamas first term was dedicated to putting in place executive power to enable him
and the administration to fulfill the campaign promise of transforming America in his second term regardless of which political party controls
Congress That is why his re-election team is virtually ignoring the plight of incumbent or prospective Democratic Party office holders
The most significant accomplishment of Obamas first term is to make Congress irrelevant Under the myopic and blindly loyal leadership of Harry
Reid and Nancy Pelosi the Democrats have succeeded in creating an imperial and in a second term a potential dictatorial presidency
During the first two years of the Obama administration when the Democrats overwhelming controlled both Houses of Congress and the media was in
an Obama worshipping stupor a myriad of laws were passed and actions taken which transferred virtually unlimited power to the executive branch The birth of multi-thousand page laws was not an aberration This tactic was adopted so the bureaucracy controlled by Obama appointees would
have sole discretion in interpreting vaguely written laws and enforcing thousands of pages of regulations they and not Congress would subsequently
write
For example in the 2700 pages of ObamaCare there are more than 2500 references to the Secretary of Health and Human Services There are more
than 700 instances when he or she is instructed that they shall do something and more than 200 times when they may take at their sole discretion
some form of regulatory action On 139 occasions the law mentions that the Secretary determines In essence one person appointed by and
reporting to the president will be in charge of the health care of 310 million Americans once ObamaCare is fully operational in 2014
The same is true in the 2319 pages of the Dodd-Frank Financial Reform Act which confers nearly unlimited power on various agencies to control by
fiat the nations financial banking and investment sectors The bill also creates new agencies such as the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau not
subject to any oversight by Congress This overall process was repeated numerous times with other legislation all with the intent of granting
unfettered power to the executive branch controlled Barack Obama and his radical associates
Additionally the Obama administration has through its unilaterally determined rule making and regulatory powers created laws out of whole cloth
The Environmental Protection Agency on a near daily basis issues new regulations clearly out of their purview in order to modify and change
environmental laws previously passed and to impose a radical green agenda never approved by Congress The same is true of the Energy and Interior
Departments among many others
None of these extra-constitutional actions have been challenged by Congress The left in America knows this usurpation of power is nearly
impossible to reverse unless stopped in its early stages
It is clearly the mindset of this administration and its appointees that Congress is merely a nuisance and can be ignored after they were able to take
full advantage of the useful idiots in the Democrat controlled House and Senate in 2009-2010 and the Democrat Senate in the current Congress Additionally Barack Obama knows after his re-election a Republican controlled House and Senate will not be able to enact any legislation to roll
back the power previously granted to the Executive Branch or usurped by them His veto will not be overridden as there will always be at least 145
Democratic members of the House or 34 in the Senate in agreement with or intimidated by an administration more than willing to use Chicago style
political tactics
The stalemate between the Executive and Legislative Branches will inure to the benefit of Barack Obama and his fellow leftists The most significant power Congress has is the control of the purse-strings as all spending must be approved by them However once re-elected
Barack Obama as confirmed by his willingness to do or say anything and his unscrupulous re-election tactics would not only threaten government
shutdowns but would deliberately withhold payments to those dependent on government support as a means of intimidating and forcing a Republican
controlled Congress to surrender to his demands thus neutering their ability to control the administration through spending constraints Further this administration has shown contempt for the courts by ignoring various court orders eg the Gulf of Mexico oil drilling moratorium as
well as stonewalling subpoenas and requests issued by Congress The Eric Holder Justice Department has become the epitome of corruption as part
of the most dishonest and deceitful administration in American history In a second term the arrogance of Barack Obama and his minions will
become more blatant as he will not have to be concerned with re-election
Who will be there to enforce the rule of law a Supreme Court ruling or the Constitution No one Barack Obama and his fellow-travelers will be
unchallenged as they run roughshod over the American people
Many Republicans and conservatives dissatisfied with the prospect of Mitt Romney as the nominee for president are instead focused on re-taking the
House and Senate That goal while worthy and necessary is meaningless unless Barack Obama is defeated The nation is not dealing with a person
of character and integrity but someone of single-minded purpose and overwhelming narcissism Judging by his actions words and deeds during his
first term he does not intend to work with Congress either Republican or Democrat in his second term but rather to force his radical agenda on the
American people through the power he has usurped or been granted
The governmental structure of the United States was set up by the founders in the hope that over the years only those people of high moral character
and integrity would assume the reins of power However knowing that was not always possible they dispersed power over three distinct and
independent branches as a check on each other
14
Obamas Second Term Transformation Plans (cont)
What they could not imagine is the surrender and abdication of its constitutional duty by the preeminent governmental branch the Congress to a
chief executive devoid of any character or integrity coupled with a judiciary essentially powerless to enforce the law when the chief executive ignores
them
Conservatives Libertarians the Republican Party and Mitt Romney must come to grips with this moment in time and their historical role in denying
Barack Obama and his minions their ultimate goal All resources must be directed at that end-game and not merely controlling Congress and the
various committee chairmanships

Winning the Youth Vote
Posted by Mindy Reifer 12pc on May 03 2012 middot Flag
After clearly indicating their strategic ploys to secure the women vote this election cycle Democrats are now sharpening their rhetoric aimed at reclaiming the youth vote President Obama directed his April campaigning towards college students focusing on college-loan rates and other university-related political issues
Since the 2008 election results were first analyzed the prominence of the youth vote has weighed heavily on both Democratic and Republican candidatesrsquo campaign decisions The popular myth circulating is that for Obamarsquos 2008 win the youth vote turned out in remarkably unprecedented numbers And all Obama has to do is continue this pattern to secure his
electoral victory
But that might be easier said than done this time around
First Obama did not in fact grow the youth vote very much and certainly not in unprecedented numbers What Obama actually did accomplish in 2008 was to turn the youth vote largely
away from Republicans securing a majority of votes from voters aged 18-29 The actual growth of the youth vote though was just 1
Posting on the Washington Postrsquos website on April 24 Chris Cillizza and Aaron Blakeat demonstrate that while political organizations claimed that Obamarsquos election was in part due to a more than 22 million youth voter turnout increase ldquoyoung voters comprised 18 percent of the electorate in 2008 a one-point improvement from their share of the electorate in 2004 2000
and 1996 but nowhere near the heights they reached in the 1980srdquo
Misrepresentation of Obamarsquos success at the polls led to many dishonest facts being promulgated to bolster the supposed turnout-increasing abilities of our president Even before the
finally tally in 2008 Heather Smith of Rock the Vote (as quoted by Melissa Dahl on MSNBCcom) said ldquoWe expected record turnout and that is what wersquore seeing right nowrdquo
Hindsight proved that it was not at all a record turnout certainly not when the 1980 and 1984 Reagan Revolution is considered but it was a record margin in favor of the Democratic nominee And this youth vote clobbering likely tilted the election in Obamarsquos favor Dahl says that ldquoyoung voters preferred Obama over John McCain by 68 percent to 30 percent mdash the
highest share of the youth vote obtained by any candidate since exit polls began reporting results by age in 1976 according to CIRCLE a non-partisan organizationrdquo
It is not only Obama and Democrats who are going after the youth vote At the same time that Obama was appealing to his prime target Romney was giving stump speeches about
student loans and college costs (In pure campaign-mode Obama demanded that Congress keep student loan rates low something that Republicans in Congress have also supported)
It remains to be seen if Obama will once again secure the youth vote or by what margin
This time around Republicans have a stronger platform to run on Obamarsquos record Statistics released by the Republican Study Committee on April 30 show that more than half of recent
college graduates are unemployed or underemployed In fact 85 of college graduates will be moving back home with their parents hardly the ideal goal of a college grad
Many of the youngest of 2008rsquos voters have now graduated college and are finding themselves enveloped in student debt and facing the harsh realities of the Obama recession And of
course the older end of the youth vote have now matured somewhat witnessing first-hand the destruction Obamarsquos policies have wrought on our economy and foreign image
And it is up to this very demographic to perhaps effect the biggest change in the election outcome this November But unfortunately youth voters are still favoring Obama over Romney by a strong margin strong enough to win him reelection An April 2012 Washington Post-ABC survey showed Obama leading Romney by 21 points among 18-29-year olds Romney is
correct in assuming he needs to appeal to the youth vote not just to grow the turnout but more importantly to urge deflections over to the Republicans side in order to secure the election
Romney needs to focus on the economy not just student loan rates He needs to remind young voters that they will need jobs to pay back their loans no matter how low interest rates remain And moving back home with Mom and Dad is no way to spend onersquos first year as a college graduate America needs to once again be a nation of unique unprecedented
economy opportunity and a 2012 ldquoReaganrdquo revolution is necessary to put the US back on track to prosperity

The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
December 9 2011
By Sara Noble
ldquoThe elective franchise if guarded as the ark of our safety will peaceably dissipate all combinations to subvert a Constitution dictated by the
wisdom and resting on the will of the peoplerdquo ~ Thomas Jefferson
While Americans are focused on the election the Progressive wing of the Democratic Party funded by two eccentric businessmen and a George Soros son are stealthily orchestrating the decimation of the voting process and states rights through the National Popular Vote Compact (NPV)
The NPV is a popular sound bite that will do the opposite of what it is portrayed to do ndash make each Americanrsquos vote count It does not do that
because it keeps the electoral college but misuses it What it actually does is create a ldquoforced mergerrdquo between heavily populated states and less populated states
Currently moving at a rapid pace the NPV is a state-by-state initiative that will force states to allocate their electoral votes to the winner of
the national popular vote rather than the winner of the popular vote in their state
NPV will greatly reduce the power of most states in that the highly populated states will be able to gain the electoral votes and in fact 11 states could decide the Presidential election
California Texas New York Florida Illinois Pennsylvania Ohio Michigan Georgia North Carolina and New Jersey have 57 of the votes cast
in 2008 and together they have 270 electoral votes the amount necessary to win the election Do you want these states to decide who is President
while other states have no say
Is this what the Founding Fathers wanted An election based on demographics and geographics
Why is the current structure of the electoral college so important Our Founding Fathers believed that the state by state disbursed system
maintained the sovereignty of the states and disallowed Federalism The containment of ldquomischiefrdquo or voter fraud of the ACORN type is contained within states instead of being spread nationally The electoral college provides balance and firewalls against voter fraud
Do you believe all states should be purple and not red or blue Then you do NOT want the NPV Supporters of the NPV claim it will favor
Republicans in that there are more underutilized Republican votes than Democratic votes which I doubt since the heavily populated states are predominantly liberal Whether this is true or not does not matter
17
The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
(cont)
We should not favor one side or the other in the United States of America
The initiative has been approved by half the states necessary to pass it The states that have approved it equal 70 electoral votes and only 138 are needed for it to pass It is well on its way to becoming law
NPV circumvents the Constitution by allowing individual states to change the Constitution without an amendment However the compact clause of
the Constitution does not allow any state to ldquoenter into any Agreement or Compact with another Staterdquo Liberal states like California could join with
Illinois New York and another 8 other liberal states forming a super bloc that would give all their electoral votes to the winner forming the bloc that could take the election
Article V specifically states that the Constitution must be amended ldquono State without its Consent shall be deprived of its equal Suffrage in the Senaterdquo The NPV as structured will immediately take effect without an amendment and it will probably be in time for the 2012 election
NPV has bipartisan support and the opposition should be bipartisan as well It is not a partisan issue it is about states rights and the power of each individual guaranteed by the electoral college
NPV will have many unwanted side effects The states that decide the election will probably be the states that receive the federal dollars because
their votes count They will likely be the only states that candidates will visit
Another problematic side effect reared its ugly head in my own Congressional district on Long Island Our congressman Tim Bishop received most
of his funding from New York City and other areas outside Long Island including as far away as California NPV will encourage the influx of money from outside the key 11 states It will be lobbying on steroids
Then there is the nationalization of voter fraud Some states require proof of citizenship photo IDrsquos no IDrsquos but NPV will eliminate that choice and the containment of fraud that states provide
I personally experienced absentee voter fraud For example one woman voted from Canada and used the address of a local middle school The courts
in NY let these votes stand Even the dead people we found were counted because you only have a few days to prove they are dead and courts want a
death certificate which is hard to get on hundreds of people in a matter of days So in NY dead people vote I happen to know of a number of illegal
aliens who voted as well
In Kansas the Democratic primary of Rizzo vs Royster shows the seriousness of voter fraud A group in support of Rizzo brought in 50 Somali nationals to vote Rizzo won by one vote
ACORN often mobilizes aliens to vote
In Mississippi 23 counties had more people registered to vote than were alive
Examples are endless though some would have us believe fraud is not a widespread problem
There is the costly and lengthy litigation which will ensue if NPV passes Examples are -
What happens constitutionally if a state in the NPV doesnrsquot like the candidate they are forced to give their electoral votes to and pulls out of the
compact though they are not free to do so
NPV does not meet equal protection under the 14th amendment for the states who do not sign on to the NPV
The compact clause Article I suggests it needs congressional approval
Article II delegates power to the states which the NPV overrides
Administratively a non-qualified person not even on the ballot could win it will force states with solid voting requirements to go with those who
allow rampant fraud if they have higher population density the individuality of states that includes early voter registration felons voting voting by mail et cetera will dissolve into the requirements of the heavily populated states Close elections will cause inevitable and lengthy delays
There is even a question of whether some states will be able to vote under the compact
18
The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
(cont)
Litigation will take a long time and could end up leaving the incumbent President in place for months or years
NPV will -
Federalize the vote
Destroy state sovereignty in the Presidential election
Circumvent the Constitution
Disenfranchise voters by giving 11 states the power to decide the election
It will ignite endless litigation
Reduce voting to the lowest common denominator
Give a handful of states supremacy
NPV is a ldquoone size fits allrdquo and it forces many states to abandon the voting procedures and policies that make them unique It focuses on the end
results and sacrifices process

GETTING INVOLVED IN YOUR PRECINCT
WHY Because we believe ldquoall politics is localrdquo
Become involved at the local level to restore conservative values and principles that will then ldquotrickle UPrdquo to all levels of government
MOPP is not the first to utilize this strategy ndash Phyllis Schlafly implemented the ldquoprecinct strategyrdquo to defeat the ERA 30+ years ago
We believe that Missouri needed to join the ranks of other states with similar efforts including Texas Florida Pennsylvania Nevada and
Utah
We want to encourage Missourians across the State to work in their own communities and counties to make a differencehellip
WHAT MOPPrsquos 4 pronged strategy
1 Key element (hence the name Missouri Precinct Project) Identify the 40-50 of the unfilled precincttownship
committee positions in their county that go unfilled (many of our members have filed to fill these positions across the
state ndash ie St Louis County stat 35 new)
2 Get out the Conservative vote ndash
a MOPP encourages its members to utilize our database (we are in the final stage of determining which program we
will be using) to canvass their neighborhood to identify and register conservative voters educate voters on issues
and candidates and get them to the polls on election day
b MOPP also partners with ldquoChampion The Votehellipencouraging our volunteers to become Champions in the
Champion the Vote program to register unregistered Christian voters (in Missouri in 2008 there was only a
4000 difference between the 2 presidential candidateshellipthatrsquos a pretty close margin but yet there are
approximately 150000 unregistered Christians in the State)
Go here to become a ldquoChampionrdquo httpchampionthevotecomheadquartersmissouri
3 Encourage becoming a poll worker to help prevent voter fraud
4 Build and maintain a database in order to form a more effective coalition united voice for Conservatives across the State

IN SUMMARY If we are ever to get control of our government and change the type of people we get into office and the control that big-
money currently brings we must get directly and actively involved at the grassroots level in the two-party system
It is not going to be easy and it is not going to change overnight But without this approach we are simply reshuffling the
chairs on the deck of the Titanic Do we just want the furniture to look better before we crash into the iceberg or do we
want to change the shiprsquos course to prevent it from sinking
Mission Statement
Restore Constitutional principles and conservative values by engaging conservatives in grassroots politics

The Leftrsquos National Vote Fraud Strategy Exposed (cont)
Key to understanding the Leftrsquos vote-fraud strategy is the community organizing group ACORN [3] ACORN has become synonymous with corruption complicity [4] in the subprime mortgage crisis [4] and especially vote fraud [5]
ACORN and its voter registration arm Project Vote [6] hire marginal and unskilled workers at very low rates and use incentive bonuses or quotas to encourage them to collect as many voter
registrations as possible [7] The resulting flood of registrations are fraught with duplicates errors and omissions and a large number are overtly fraudulent including names like ldquoDonald Duckrdquo ldquoMickey Mouserdquo ldquoTony Romordquo of the Dallas Cowboys [8] etc [9][2] [10] According to Matthew Vadum [11] the senior editor at Capital Research Center a total of 400000 bogus ACORN
registrations were thrown out in 2008 alone
ACORN was supposedly disbanded in 2010 but resurrected itself under a slew of new names Former ACORN President Bertha Lewis bragged [12] that they created ldquohellip18 bulletproof community-
organizing Frankensteinshelliprdquo These are reproduced in the table below Most of these groups occupy former ACORN offices many with the same staff
ACORN is directly connected to Obama and the Democratic Party Counsel to The Advance Group a strategic planning company is Michael Gaspard [13] Patrick Gaspardrsquos [14] brother Patrick is currently the DNCrsquos executive director and President Obamarsquos former political director He has worked for ACORN the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) and the Working Families
Party a descendant of the ACORN-founded New Party which Barack Obama joined in 1996 [14] Obama has bragged of ldquofighting alongside ACORN [15] on issues you care about my entire careerrdquo
ACORNrsquos former deputy regional director Amy Busefink was convicted [16]in 2010 of vote fraud stemming from a 2008 Nevada case [9] Judicial Watch found that ldquowhile under criminal
indictment in Nevadahellip [Busefink] managed an online program for Project Votersquos 2010 Colorado campaign the ultimate goal of which is to allow people without a driverrsquos license or state
identification to register to vote onlinerdquo Busefink is now national field director [17] for Project Vote
A MESSAGE FROMhellip
NEWS FROM THE TRENCHES ndash FLORIDA
Champion Tom Coutre and his wife helped set up 25 Voter Registration Drives in 25 different churches in Sumter Marion and Lake Counties prior to Floridas Presidential Primary (PPP) With the help of volunteers from the
churches they distributed about 2000 voter registration forms
Tom reported that the churches with the highest rate of success did these two things
1 The Pastors played the Champion the Vote video at their services and according to Tom people were
shocked by the statistics in the video
2 The Pastors said something like this from the pulpitIf you are not registered to vote or fail to vote you
are not doing your duty as a Christian or as an American citizen They then directed the congregation to pick up a voter registration form and a voter guide after the service
Tom said that in the end registering new voters may not have been the most important result of the effort Tom
believes that the real importance of the drives was that they raised awareness of the power of the primary He
reported that Sumter County Florida had the highest percentage turnout for the PPP While he does not attribute
this directly to the voter registration efforts the Supervisor of Elections said that during the drives they
experienced an unusual number of new voter registrations in which voters changed their party affiliation Let us know what youre doing to champion the vote in your community and beyond
Blessings
The Champion the Vote Team
Making a Difference One by One Multiplied Across the Nation
NOTE Elections can be won or lost by one votehellipwe need to outnumber them Every vote is going to count in the upcoming primaries and general elections We need to get every conservative voter we can registered in order to counterbalance the tactics as enumerated in the above article ldquoThe Leftrsquos National Vote Fraud Strategy Exposed A good place to find conservative

Analysis Conservatives used tactics of the left in Wisconsin win
Nick CareyReuters
657 pm CDT June 6 2012
MADISON Wisconsin (Reuters) - Activists with the conservative Tea Party movement say they owe a lot to their schooling in left-wing
community organizing tactics for the historic Republican victory over the Democrats and their union allies in the Wisconsin recall election
While the Democrats said huge campaign spending by conservatives supporters of Republican Scott Walker allowed him on Tuesday to
become the first governor in US history to survive a recall election the Republicans point to their grassroots get-out-the-vote work as more
important
Advertising can only do so much said Ned Ryun head of the national conservative group American Majority whose sister group American
Majority Action worked closely with Wisconsin activists But talking to someone face to face is a game changer
Combine that personal contact with energizing a mass movement of door knockers and the latest phone software technology to track voters and
you have many of the ingredients for the victory they say
The conservative activists have literally taken a page out of a left-wing radicals guide to organizing - as many have read the late Saul Alinskys
Rules for Radicals
Born in 1909 in Chicago Alinsky - who died in 1972 - began his organizing career in the citys poor Back of the Yards district and is widely
considered the founder of modern community organizing
There was no manual for organizing on the right so we adapted it to the conservative cause said Brown of We the People of the Republic a
Tea Party group based in Madison Wisconsin The left has been good at it for 100 years so what better place to start
Labor unions and liberal activists forced the recall election against Walker because of his successful effort last year to curb the collective
bargaining powers of public sector workers in the Midwestern US state famous for its beer cheese and Harley-Davidsonmotorcycles
The unions with a reputation for excelling at grass-roots organizing not only failed to oust Walker - but he beat his Democratic challenger
Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett by an even bigger margin than his 2010 gubernatorial victory
Out-of-state conservatives flooded Wisconsin with tens of millions of dollars in campaign cash in an election seen as a barometer of the
American political mood ahead of the November 6 presidential election Walker outspend Barrett by more than 7-to-1
Leading US conservative donors made donations to boost Walker
Luke Hilgemann Wisconsin state director of Americans for Prosperity which is backed by conservative billionaire brothers David
and Charles Koch said the group coordinated a network of some 100000 local activists Most of their efforts centered on 17 key counties
Money alone doesnt win elections In the three weeks before the election Walker benefited from a disciplined get-out-the-vote drive mounted
by people associated with the Tea Party movement which reviles President Barack Obama Wisconsin could be a key battleground state in the
November 6 election as Obama seeks re-election against Republican Mitt Romney
A lot of the campaign cash bankrolled a wave of pro-Walker advertising Exit polls taken on Tuesday however indicated the ads may not have
been a decisive factor nearly 90 percent of voters say they chose their candidate before the ad barrage
Not only is the Tea Party alive and kicking those guys ran a great get-out-the-vote campaign said Ford OConnell a Republican strategist and
chairman of the CivicForum PAC political group They have given away the secret recipe for what could win the election for Mitt Romney
This is a paradigm shift added Matt Kibbe president of FreedomWorks a conservative group chaired by former Republican House of
Representatives Majority leader Dick Armey that provides training and resources to Tea Party activists If the grassroots embrace a cause
they make all the difference
11
Analysis Conservatives used tactics of the left in Wisconsin win (cont)
UNION FAULTS
Analysts said Democrats and unions made fundamental mistakes in Wisconsin Instead of uniting behind one candidate to challenge Walker
Democrats waged a divisive primary and most unions did not back the eventual winner Tom Barrett who has had his own disputes with unions
as mayor of Milwaukee
The Democrats lost valuable time and money while Walker was traveling the country collecting millions of dollars to back his election effort
They also may have miscalculated in choosing Barrett who previously had lost to Walker in 2010
If they are going to recall a governor it hardly makes sense to try to challenge him with a candidate who lost against him last time said Marick
Masters a professor of business and director of labor studies at Wayne State University in Detroit
On Wednesday top labor leaders such as AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka and Teamsters General President Jim Hoffa were not
acknowledging any mistakes publicly and dismissed the idea that events in Wisconsin had a broad implications for the labor movements future
Walker needed every last dime and every last divisive TV ad to maintain a weakened hold on his office Trumka said
Success in Wisconsin this year came with the aid of technology such as a new get-out-the-vote app called Gravity that American Majority Action
provided free to Tea Party activists as conservatives targeted like-minded voters
Prior to the election Tea Party activists reported encountering voters who backed Walker but would be out of state on the day of the election So
activists helped them fill out absentee ballots
We would have lost those votes if we hadnt showed up said Matt Batzel state director of American Majority Action Thats what this is all
about
Note The above article documents how the grassroots played an integral role in the Wisconsin recall A new ldquoget out the voterdquo app called ldquoGravityrdquohellipand groups like American Majority and True the Vote were all part of a unified effort with many other grassroots organizations both local and national to help achieve victory The sophistication of these programs coupled with the manpower and passion of the grassroots movement was a ldquowinningrdquo combination These same tools and strategies will be showcased at our MOPP ldquoWinning in Novemberrdquo seminar that will take place on July 14 2012 We hope you make plans to attend and join us to learn how you can utilize these tools for victory in November

A NOTABLE QUOTE
ldquoThe difference between ldquotryrdquo and ldquotriumphrdquo is a little ldquoumphrdquo - (ht Mindy Patterson)
12
November Is a Plebiscite On the American Revolution
REPRINTED FROM Tuesday May 01 2012
Election Day 2012 will not be a presidential election It will be a plebiscite
Americans will not only be voting for a president (and a House and a third of the Senate) They will be participating in a plebiscite on the definition of America If Americans re-elect the Democrat Barack Obama they will have announced that America should be like Western European countries -- governed by left-wing values Americans will have decided that Americas value system -- Liberty In God We Trust E Pluribus Unum -- should be replaced The election in November is therefore a plebiscite on the American Revolution The usual description of presidential elections -- the most important in our lifetime -- is true this time In fact it may be the most important election since the Civil War and possibly since Americas founding
The left knows what is at stake And the most left-wing president in American history knows what is at stake Candidate Obama announced shortly before the 2008 election We are five days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America He described the lefts aim perfectly to fundamentally transform America It seeks to replace Liberty In God We Trust and E Pluribus Unum That is what fundamentally transform means In fact those words are proof that American values and leftist values are fundamentally opposed to one another
The right on the other hand seeks to maintain Americas values Conservatives want to improve America but as its name implies conservatism seeks to conserve not transform Liberty means first and foremost limited government -- because bigger government means less individual liberty In God We Trust means that America must be rooted in Creator-based values There are no inalienable rights if no rights derive from God And E Pluribus Unum means the assumption of an American identity by all citizens regardless of their racial ethnic or national background
The left seeks to replace Liberty with Equality Material inequality is the great evil and if individual liberty needs to be sacrificed to attain equality so be it Creator-based values are to be replaced by government-based values God-fearing is to be replaced by State-fearing God must be removed from schools and wherever else the left can succeed in doing so E Pluribus Unum is to be replaced by multiculturalism For leftism the very words American identity conjure up chauvinism if not fascism
For these reasons this election is not just a choice between a Democrat and a Republican It is between Americanism and leftism This does not mean that left-wing Americans are un-American or unpatriotic -- or that they do not love their country The conflict between Americanism and leftism is between ideas not between decent and indecent people But it is an unfortunate fact of life that decent people can believe in bad ideas If this were not so few of the greatest evils would ever have occurred
If this election is indeed a plebiscite on America Mitt Romney cannot campaign solely or even primarily on the state of the economy First what if the economy even slightly improves What happens then to Governor Romneys appeal Moreover relying for ones success on the suffering of ones fellow Americans is morally as well as politically perilous Second Americans want to vote for more than an economic Mr Fix-It as desirable as such a person is
So too Mr Romney should not overly personalize his campaign He is running against Obama but Barack Obama is not the biggest issue The lefts desire to transform America is the biggest issue Barack Obama is to be opposed because he is a man of the left Mitt Romney and the entire Republican Party need to describe this election as the plebiscite on America that it is The most urgent task in American life is to make clear and then repeat as often as possible leftist values and American values are in conflict
Instead of asking Are you better off than you were three years ago Every Republican needs to ask every day Do you want to fundamentally transform America If they do Barack Obama is their man If they dont Mitt Romney is
NOTE The Missouri Caucuses are completed A lot of people got involved this year and were very passionate about the various
candidates Not everybody is happy One even hears that voting for the supposed nominee Mitt Romney is no different than Barack Obama So why bother to vote We should all remember that the next President will probably be in a position to nominate up to four Supreme Court justices So keep this in mind when you make your decisions about who to support Current age of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg - 79 years Stephen Breyer - 73 years
Anthony Kennedy - 75 years Antonin Scalia - 76 tears We cannot afford to have a President Obama replace any Supreme Court Justices but especially not a Antonin Scalia Especially if we do not have at least 41 Senators that would be willing to stand up and vote no for any Supreme Court nominee that does not have true constitutional credentials Supposedly Mitt Romney has appointed a group of individuals to review possible candidates for the Supreme Court This is encouraging especially since the man heading this group is Robert Borck one of the best constitutional jurists this country has ever produced

Obamas Second Term Transformation Plans By Steve McCann
The 2012 election has often been described as the most pivotal since 1860 This statement is not hyperbole If Barack Obama is re-elected the
United States will never be the same nor will it be able to re-capture its once lofty status as the most dominant nation in the history of mankind The overwhelming majority of Americans do not understand that Obamas first term was dedicated to putting in place executive power to enable him
and the administration to fulfill the campaign promise of transforming America in his second term regardless of which political party controls
Congress That is why his re-election team is virtually ignoring the plight of incumbent or prospective Democratic Party office holders
The most significant accomplishment of Obamas first term is to make Congress irrelevant Under the myopic and blindly loyal leadership of Harry
Reid and Nancy Pelosi the Democrats have succeeded in creating an imperial and in a second term a potential dictatorial presidency
During the first two years of the Obama administration when the Democrats overwhelming controlled both Houses of Congress and the media was in
an Obama worshipping stupor a myriad of laws were passed and actions taken which transferred virtually unlimited power to the executive branch The birth of multi-thousand page laws was not an aberration This tactic was adopted so the bureaucracy controlled by Obama appointees would
have sole discretion in interpreting vaguely written laws and enforcing thousands of pages of regulations they and not Congress would subsequently
write
For example in the 2700 pages of ObamaCare there are more than 2500 references to the Secretary of Health and Human Services There are more
than 700 instances when he or she is instructed that they shall do something and more than 200 times when they may take at their sole discretion
some form of regulatory action On 139 occasions the law mentions that the Secretary determines In essence one person appointed by and
reporting to the president will be in charge of the health care of 310 million Americans once ObamaCare is fully operational in 2014
The same is true in the 2319 pages of the Dodd-Frank Financial Reform Act which confers nearly unlimited power on various agencies to control by
fiat the nations financial banking and investment sectors The bill also creates new agencies such as the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau not
subject to any oversight by Congress This overall process was repeated numerous times with other legislation all with the intent of granting
unfettered power to the executive branch controlled Barack Obama and his radical associates
Additionally the Obama administration has through its unilaterally determined rule making and regulatory powers created laws out of whole cloth
The Environmental Protection Agency on a near daily basis issues new regulations clearly out of their purview in order to modify and change
environmental laws previously passed and to impose a radical green agenda never approved by Congress The same is true of the Energy and Interior
Departments among many others
None of these extra-constitutional actions have been challenged by Congress The left in America knows this usurpation of power is nearly
impossible to reverse unless stopped in its early stages
It is clearly the mindset of this administration and its appointees that Congress is merely a nuisance and can be ignored after they were able to take
full advantage of the useful idiots in the Democrat controlled House and Senate in 2009-2010 and the Democrat Senate in the current Congress Additionally Barack Obama knows after his re-election a Republican controlled House and Senate will not be able to enact any legislation to roll
back the power previously granted to the Executive Branch or usurped by them His veto will not be overridden as there will always be at least 145
Democratic members of the House or 34 in the Senate in agreement with or intimidated by an administration more than willing to use Chicago style
political tactics
The stalemate between the Executive and Legislative Branches will inure to the benefit of Barack Obama and his fellow leftists The most significant power Congress has is the control of the purse-strings as all spending must be approved by them However once re-elected
Barack Obama as confirmed by his willingness to do or say anything and his unscrupulous re-election tactics would not only threaten government
shutdowns but would deliberately withhold payments to those dependent on government support as a means of intimidating and forcing a Republican
controlled Congress to surrender to his demands thus neutering their ability to control the administration through spending constraints Further this administration has shown contempt for the courts by ignoring various court orders eg the Gulf of Mexico oil drilling moratorium as
well as stonewalling subpoenas and requests issued by Congress The Eric Holder Justice Department has become the epitome of corruption as part
of the most dishonest and deceitful administration in American history In a second term the arrogance of Barack Obama and his minions will
become more blatant as he will not have to be concerned with re-election
Who will be there to enforce the rule of law a Supreme Court ruling or the Constitution No one Barack Obama and his fellow-travelers will be
unchallenged as they run roughshod over the American people
Many Republicans and conservatives dissatisfied with the prospect of Mitt Romney as the nominee for president are instead focused on re-taking the
House and Senate That goal while worthy and necessary is meaningless unless Barack Obama is defeated The nation is not dealing with a person
of character and integrity but someone of single-minded purpose and overwhelming narcissism Judging by his actions words and deeds during his
first term he does not intend to work with Congress either Republican or Democrat in his second term but rather to force his radical agenda on the
American people through the power he has usurped or been granted
The governmental structure of the United States was set up by the founders in the hope that over the years only those people of high moral character
and integrity would assume the reins of power However knowing that was not always possible they dispersed power over three distinct and
independent branches as a check on each other
14
Obamas Second Term Transformation Plans (cont)
What they could not imagine is the surrender and abdication of its constitutional duty by the preeminent governmental branch the Congress to a
chief executive devoid of any character or integrity coupled with a judiciary essentially powerless to enforce the law when the chief executive ignores
them
Conservatives Libertarians the Republican Party and Mitt Romney must come to grips with this moment in time and their historical role in denying
Barack Obama and his minions their ultimate goal All resources must be directed at that end-game and not merely controlling Congress and the
various committee chairmanships

Winning the Youth Vote
Posted by Mindy Reifer 12pc on May 03 2012 middot Flag
After clearly indicating their strategic ploys to secure the women vote this election cycle Democrats are now sharpening their rhetoric aimed at reclaiming the youth vote President Obama directed his April campaigning towards college students focusing on college-loan rates and other university-related political issues
Since the 2008 election results were first analyzed the prominence of the youth vote has weighed heavily on both Democratic and Republican candidatesrsquo campaign decisions The popular myth circulating is that for Obamarsquos 2008 win the youth vote turned out in remarkably unprecedented numbers And all Obama has to do is continue this pattern to secure his
electoral victory
But that might be easier said than done this time around
First Obama did not in fact grow the youth vote very much and certainly not in unprecedented numbers What Obama actually did accomplish in 2008 was to turn the youth vote largely
away from Republicans securing a majority of votes from voters aged 18-29 The actual growth of the youth vote though was just 1
Posting on the Washington Postrsquos website on April 24 Chris Cillizza and Aaron Blakeat demonstrate that while political organizations claimed that Obamarsquos election was in part due to a more than 22 million youth voter turnout increase ldquoyoung voters comprised 18 percent of the electorate in 2008 a one-point improvement from their share of the electorate in 2004 2000
and 1996 but nowhere near the heights they reached in the 1980srdquo
Misrepresentation of Obamarsquos success at the polls led to many dishonest facts being promulgated to bolster the supposed turnout-increasing abilities of our president Even before the
finally tally in 2008 Heather Smith of Rock the Vote (as quoted by Melissa Dahl on MSNBCcom) said ldquoWe expected record turnout and that is what wersquore seeing right nowrdquo
Hindsight proved that it was not at all a record turnout certainly not when the 1980 and 1984 Reagan Revolution is considered but it was a record margin in favor of the Democratic nominee And this youth vote clobbering likely tilted the election in Obamarsquos favor Dahl says that ldquoyoung voters preferred Obama over John McCain by 68 percent to 30 percent mdash the
highest share of the youth vote obtained by any candidate since exit polls began reporting results by age in 1976 according to CIRCLE a non-partisan organizationrdquo
It is not only Obama and Democrats who are going after the youth vote At the same time that Obama was appealing to his prime target Romney was giving stump speeches about
student loans and college costs (In pure campaign-mode Obama demanded that Congress keep student loan rates low something that Republicans in Congress have also supported)
It remains to be seen if Obama will once again secure the youth vote or by what margin
This time around Republicans have a stronger platform to run on Obamarsquos record Statistics released by the Republican Study Committee on April 30 show that more than half of recent
college graduates are unemployed or underemployed In fact 85 of college graduates will be moving back home with their parents hardly the ideal goal of a college grad
Many of the youngest of 2008rsquos voters have now graduated college and are finding themselves enveloped in student debt and facing the harsh realities of the Obama recession And of
course the older end of the youth vote have now matured somewhat witnessing first-hand the destruction Obamarsquos policies have wrought on our economy and foreign image
And it is up to this very demographic to perhaps effect the biggest change in the election outcome this November But unfortunately youth voters are still favoring Obama over Romney by a strong margin strong enough to win him reelection An April 2012 Washington Post-ABC survey showed Obama leading Romney by 21 points among 18-29-year olds Romney is
correct in assuming he needs to appeal to the youth vote not just to grow the turnout but more importantly to urge deflections over to the Republicans side in order to secure the election
Romney needs to focus on the economy not just student loan rates He needs to remind young voters that they will need jobs to pay back their loans no matter how low interest rates remain And moving back home with Mom and Dad is no way to spend onersquos first year as a college graduate America needs to once again be a nation of unique unprecedented
economy opportunity and a 2012 ldquoReaganrdquo revolution is necessary to put the US back on track to prosperity

The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
December 9 2011
By Sara Noble
ldquoThe elective franchise if guarded as the ark of our safety will peaceably dissipate all combinations to subvert a Constitution dictated by the
wisdom and resting on the will of the peoplerdquo ~ Thomas Jefferson
While Americans are focused on the election the Progressive wing of the Democratic Party funded by two eccentric businessmen and a George Soros son are stealthily orchestrating the decimation of the voting process and states rights through the National Popular Vote Compact (NPV)
The NPV is a popular sound bite that will do the opposite of what it is portrayed to do ndash make each Americanrsquos vote count It does not do that
because it keeps the electoral college but misuses it What it actually does is create a ldquoforced mergerrdquo between heavily populated states and less populated states
Currently moving at a rapid pace the NPV is a state-by-state initiative that will force states to allocate their electoral votes to the winner of
the national popular vote rather than the winner of the popular vote in their state
NPV will greatly reduce the power of most states in that the highly populated states will be able to gain the electoral votes and in fact 11 states could decide the Presidential election
California Texas New York Florida Illinois Pennsylvania Ohio Michigan Georgia North Carolina and New Jersey have 57 of the votes cast
in 2008 and together they have 270 electoral votes the amount necessary to win the election Do you want these states to decide who is President
while other states have no say
Is this what the Founding Fathers wanted An election based on demographics and geographics
Why is the current structure of the electoral college so important Our Founding Fathers believed that the state by state disbursed system
maintained the sovereignty of the states and disallowed Federalism The containment of ldquomischiefrdquo or voter fraud of the ACORN type is contained within states instead of being spread nationally The electoral college provides balance and firewalls against voter fraud
Do you believe all states should be purple and not red or blue Then you do NOT want the NPV Supporters of the NPV claim it will favor
Republicans in that there are more underutilized Republican votes than Democratic votes which I doubt since the heavily populated states are predominantly liberal Whether this is true or not does not matter
17
The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
(cont)
We should not favor one side or the other in the United States of America
The initiative has been approved by half the states necessary to pass it The states that have approved it equal 70 electoral votes and only 138 are needed for it to pass It is well on its way to becoming law
NPV circumvents the Constitution by allowing individual states to change the Constitution without an amendment However the compact clause of
the Constitution does not allow any state to ldquoenter into any Agreement or Compact with another Staterdquo Liberal states like California could join with
Illinois New York and another 8 other liberal states forming a super bloc that would give all their electoral votes to the winner forming the bloc that could take the election
Article V specifically states that the Constitution must be amended ldquono State without its Consent shall be deprived of its equal Suffrage in the Senaterdquo The NPV as structured will immediately take effect without an amendment and it will probably be in time for the 2012 election
NPV has bipartisan support and the opposition should be bipartisan as well It is not a partisan issue it is about states rights and the power of each individual guaranteed by the electoral college
NPV will have many unwanted side effects The states that decide the election will probably be the states that receive the federal dollars because
their votes count They will likely be the only states that candidates will visit
Another problematic side effect reared its ugly head in my own Congressional district on Long Island Our congressman Tim Bishop received most
of his funding from New York City and other areas outside Long Island including as far away as California NPV will encourage the influx of money from outside the key 11 states It will be lobbying on steroids
Then there is the nationalization of voter fraud Some states require proof of citizenship photo IDrsquos no IDrsquos but NPV will eliminate that choice and the containment of fraud that states provide
I personally experienced absentee voter fraud For example one woman voted from Canada and used the address of a local middle school The courts
in NY let these votes stand Even the dead people we found were counted because you only have a few days to prove they are dead and courts want a
death certificate which is hard to get on hundreds of people in a matter of days So in NY dead people vote I happen to know of a number of illegal
aliens who voted as well
In Kansas the Democratic primary of Rizzo vs Royster shows the seriousness of voter fraud A group in support of Rizzo brought in 50 Somali nationals to vote Rizzo won by one vote
ACORN often mobilizes aliens to vote
In Mississippi 23 counties had more people registered to vote than were alive
Examples are endless though some would have us believe fraud is not a widespread problem
There is the costly and lengthy litigation which will ensue if NPV passes Examples are -
What happens constitutionally if a state in the NPV doesnrsquot like the candidate they are forced to give their electoral votes to and pulls out of the
compact though they are not free to do so
NPV does not meet equal protection under the 14th amendment for the states who do not sign on to the NPV
The compact clause Article I suggests it needs congressional approval
Article II delegates power to the states which the NPV overrides
Administratively a non-qualified person not even on the ballot could win it will force states with solid voting requirements to go with those who
allow rampant fraud if they have higher population density the individuality of states that includes early voter registration felons voting voting by mail et cetera will dissolve into the requirements of the heavily populated states Close elections will cause inevitable and lengthy delays
There is even a question of whether some states will be able to vote under the compact
18
The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
(cont)
Litigation will take a long time and could end up leaving the incumbent President in place for months or years
NPV will -
Federalize the vote
Destroy state sovereignty in the Presidential election
Circumvent the Constitution
Disenfranchise voters by giving 11 states the power to decide the election
It will ignite endless litigation
Reduce voting to the lowest common denominator
Give a handful of states supremacy
NPV is a ldquoone size fits allrdquo and it forces many states to abandon the voting procedures and policies that make them unique It focuses on the end
results and sacrifices process

NOTE One of our very own Republican Missouri Legislators introduced a bill in the last legislative session in favor of the National Popular Vote and to eliminate the Electoral College Dwight Scharnhorst (93rd District before re-districting) explained that he did not know that what this bill was about and that is why he introduced it Unfortunately MrScharnhorst is now running unopposed in the newly re-districted 88th District

GETTING INVOLVED IN YOUR PRECINCT
WHY Because we believe ldquoall politics is localrdquo
Become involved at the local level to restore conservative values and principles that will then ldquotrickle UPrdquo to all levels of government
MOPP is not the first to utilize this strategy ndash Phyllis Schlafly implemented the ldquoprecinct strategyrdquo to defeat the ERA 30+ years ago
We believe that Missouri needed to join the ranks of other states with similar efforts including Texas Florida Pennsylvania Nevada and
Utah
We want to encourage Missourians across the State to work in their own communities and counties to make a differencehellip
WHAT MOPPrsquos 4 pronged strategy
1 Key element (hence the name Missouri Precinct Project) Identify the 40-50 of the unfilled precincttownship
committee positions in their county that go unfilled (many of our members have filed to fill these positions across the
state ndash ie St Louis County stat 35 new)
2 Get out the Conservative vote ndash
a MOPP encourages its members to utilize our database (we are in the final stage of determining which program we
will be using) to canvass their neighborhood to identify and register conservative voters educate voters on issues
and candidates and get them to the polls on election day
b MOPP also partners with ldquoChampion The Votehellipencouraging our volunteers to become Champions in the
Champion the Vote program to register unregistered Christian voters (in Missouri in 2008 there was only a
4000 difference between the 2 presidential candidateshellipthatrsquos a pretty close margin but yet there are
approximately 150000 unregistered Christians in the State)
Go here to become a ldquoChampionrdquo httpchampionthevotecomheadquartersmissouri
3 Encourage becoming a poll worker to help prevent voter fraud
4 Build and maintain a database in order to form a more effective coalition united voice for Conservatives across the State

IN SUMMARY If we are ever to get control of our government and change the type of people we get into office and the control that big-
money currently brings we must get directly and actively involved at the grassroots level in the two-party system
It is not going to be easy and it is not going to change overnight But without this approach we are simply reshuffling the
chairs on the deck of the Titanic Do we just want the furniture to look better before we crash into the iceberg or do we
want to change the shiprsquos course to prevent it from sinking
Mission Statement
Restore Constitutional principles and conservative values by engaging conservatives in grassroots politics

Analysis Conservatives used tactics of the left in Wisconsin win
Nick CareyReuters
657 pm CDT June 6 2012
MADISON Wisconsin (Reuters) - Activists with the conservative Tea Party movement say they owe a lot to their schooling in left-wing
community organizing tactics for the historic Republican victory over the Democrats and their union allies in the Wisconsin recall election
While the Democrats said huge campaign spending by conservatives supporters of Republican Scott Walker allowed him on Tuesday to
become the first governor in US history to survive a recall election the Republicans point to their grassroots get-out-the-vote work as more
important
Advertising can only do so much said Ned Ryun head of the national conservative group American Majority whose sister group American
Majority Action worked closely with Wisconsin activists But talking to someone face to face is a game changer
Combine that personal contact with energizing a mass movement of door knockers and the latest phone software technology to track voters and
you have many of the ingredients for the victory they say
The conservative activists have literally taken a page out of a left-wing radicals guide to organizing - as many have read the late Saul Alinskys
Rules for Radicals
Born in 1909 in Chicago Alinsky - who died in 1972 - began his organizing career in the citys poor Back of the Yards district and is widely
considered the founder of modern community organizing
There was no manual for organizing on the right so we adapted it to the conservative cause said Brown of We the People of the Republic a
Tea Party group based in Madison Wisconsin The left has been good at it for 100 years so what better place to start
Labor unions and liberal activists forced the recall election against Walker because of his successful effort last year to curb the collective
bargaining powers of public sector workers in the Midwestern US state famous for its beer cheese and Harley-Davidsonmotorcycles
The unions with a reputation for excelling at grass-roots organizing not only failed to oust Walker - but he beat his Democratic challenger
Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett by an even bigger margin than his 2010 gubernatorial victory
Out-of-state conservatives flooded Wisconsin with tens of millions of dollars in campaign cash in an election seen as a barometer of the
American political mood ahead of the November 6 presidential election Walker outspend Barrett by more than 7-to-1
Leading US conservative donors made donations to boost Walker
Luke Hilgemann Wisconsin state director of Americans for Prosperity which is backed by conservative billionaire brothers David
and Charles Koch said the group coordinated a network of some 100000 local activists Most of their efforts centered on 17 key counties
Money alone doesnt win elections In the three weeks before the election Walker benefited from a disciplined get-out-the-vote drive mounted
by people associated with the Tea Party movement which reviles President Barack Obama Wisconsin could be a key battleground state in the
November 6 election as Obama seeks re-election against Republican Mitt Romney
A lot of the campaign cash bankrolled a wave of pro-Walker advertising Exit polls taken on Tuesday however indicated the ads may not have
been a decisive factor nearly 90 percent of voters say they chose their candidate before the ad barrage
Not only is the Tea Party alive and kicking those guys ran a great get-out-the-vote campaign said Ford OConnell a Republican strategist and
chairman of the CivicForum PAC political group They have given away the secret recipe for what could win the election for Mitt Romney
This is a paradigm shift added Matt Kibbe president of FreedomWorks a conservative group chaired by former Republican House of
Representatives Majority leader Dick Armey that provides training and resources to Tea Party activists If the grassroots embrace a cause
they make all the difference
11
Analysis Conservatives used tactics of the left in Wisconsin win (cont)
UNION FAULTS
Analysts said Democrats and unions made fundamental mistakes in Wisconsin Instead of uniting behind one candidate to challenge Walker
Democrats waged a divisive primary and most unions did not back the eventual winner Tom Barrett who has had his own disputes with unions
as mayor of Milwaukee
The Democrats lost valuable time and money while Walker was traveling the country collecting millions of dollars to back his election effort
They also may have miscalculated in choosing Barrett who previously had lost to Walker in 2010
If they are going to recall a governor it hardly makes sense to try to challenge him with a candidate who lost against him last time said Marick
Masters a professor of business and director of labor studies at Wayne State University in Detroit
On Wednesday top labor leaders such as AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka and Teamsters General President Jim Hoffa were not
acknowledging any mistakes publicly and dismissed the idea that events in Wisconsin had a broad implications for the labor movements future
Walker needed every last dime and every last divisive TV ad to maintain a weakened hold on his office Trumka said
Success in Wisconsin this year came with the aid of technology such as a new get-out-the-vote app called Gravity that American Majority Action
provided free to Tea Party activists as conservatives targeted like-minded voters
Prior to the election Tea Party activists reported encountering voters who backed Walker but would be out of state on the day of the election So
activists helped them fill out absentee ballots
We would have lost those votes if we hadnt showed up said Matt Batzel state director of American Majority Action Thats what this is all
about
Note The above article documents how the grassroots played an integral role in the Wisconsin recall A new ldquoget out the voterdquo app called ldquoGravityrdquohellipand groups like American Majority and True the Vote were all part of a unified effort with many other grassroots organizations both local and national to help achieve victory The sophistication of these programs coupled with the manpower and passion of the grassroots movement was a ldquowinningrdquo combination These same tools and strategies will be showcased at our MOPP ldquoWinning in Novemberrdquo seminar that will take place on July 14 2012 We hope you make plans to attend and join us to learn how you can utilize these tools for victory in November

November Is a Plebiscite On the American Revolution
REPRINTED FROM Tuesday May 01 2012
Election Day 2012 will not be a presidential election It will be a plebiscite
Americans will not only be voting for a president (and a House and a third of the Senate) They will be participating in a plebiscite on the definition of America If Americans re-elect the Democrat Barack Obama they will have announced that America should be like Western European countries -- governed by left-wing values Americans will have decided that Americas value system -- Liberty In God We Trust E Pluribus Unum -- should be replaced The election in November is therefore a plebiscite on the American Revolution The usual description of presidential elections -- the most important in our lifetime -- is true this time In fact it may be the most important election since the Civil War and possibly since Americas founding
The left knows what is at stake And the most left-wing president in American history knows what is at stake Candidate Obama announced shortly before the 2008 election We are five days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America He described the lefts aim perfectly to fundamentally transform America It seeks to replace Liberty In God We Trust and E Pluribus Unum That is what fundamentally transform means In fact those words are proof that American values and leftist values are fundamentally opposed to one another
The right on the other hand seeks to maintain Americas values Conservatives want to improve America but as its name implies conservatism seeks to conserve not transform Liberty means first and foremost limited government -- because bigger government means less individual liberty In God We Trust means that America must be rooted in Creator-based values There are no inalienable rights if no rights derive from God And E Pluribus Unum means the assumption of an American identity by all citizens regardless of their racial ethnic or national background
The left seeks to replace Liberty with Equality Material inequality is the great evil and if individual liberty needs to be sacrificed to attain equality so be it Creator-based values are to be replaced by government-based values God-fearing is to be replaced by State-fearing God must be removed from schools and wherever else the left can succeed in doing so E Pluribus Unum is to be replaced by multiculturalism For leftism the very words American identity conjure up chauvinism if not fascism
For these reasons this election is not just a choice between a Democrat and a Republican It is between Americanism and leftism This does not mean that left-wing Americans are un-American or unpatriotic -- or that they do not love their country The conflict between Americanism and leftism is between ideas not between decent and indecent people But it is an unfortunate fact of life that decent people can believe in bad ideas If this were not so few of the greatest evils would ever have occurred
If this election is indeed a plebiscite on America Mitt Romney cannot campaign solely or even primarily on the state of the economy First what if the economy even slightly improves What happens then to Governor Romneys appeal Moreover relying for ones success on the suffering of ones fellow Americans is morally as well as politically perilous Second Americans want to vote for more than an economic Mr Fix-It as desirable as such a person is
So too Mr Romney should not overly personalize his campaign He is running against Obama but Barack Obama is not the biggest issue The lefts desire to transform America is the biggest issue Barack Obama is to be opposed because he is a man of the left Mitt Romney and the entire Republican Party need to describe this election as the plebiscite on America that it is The most urgent task in American life is to make clear and then repeat as often as possible leftist values and American values are in conflict
Instead of asking Are you better off than you were three years ago Every Republican needs to ask every day Do you want to fundamentally transform America If they do Barack Obama is their man If they dont Mitt Romney is
NOTE The Missouri Caucuses are completed A lot of people got involved this year and were very passionate about the various
candidates Not everybody is happy One even hears that voting for the supposed nominee Mitt Romney is no different than Barack Obama So why bother to vote We should all remember that the next President will probably be in a position to nominate up to four Supreme Court justices So keep this in mind when you make your decisions about who to support Current age of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg - 79 years Stephen Breyer - 73 years
Anthony Kennedy - 75 years Antonin Scalia - 76 tears We cannot afford to have a President Obama replace any Supreme Court Justices but especially not a Antonin Scalia Especially if we do not have at least 41 Senators that would be willing to stand up and vote no for any Supreme Court nominee that does not have true constitutional credentials Supposedly Mitt Romney has appointed a group of individuals to review possible candidates for the Supreme Court This is encouraging especially since the man heading this group is Robert Borck one of the best constitutional jurists this country has ever produced

Obamas Second Term Transformation Plans By Steve McCann
The 2012 election has often been described as the most pivotal since 1860 This statement is not hyperbole If Barack Obama is re-elected the
United States will never be the same nor will it be able to re-capture its once lofty status as the most dominant nation in the history of mankind The overwhelming majority of Americans do not understand that Obamas first term was dedicated to putting in place executive power to enable him
and the administration to fulfill the campaign promise of transforming America in his second term regardless of which political party controls
Congress That is why his re-election team is virtually ignoring the plight of incumbent or prospective Democratic Party office holders
The most significant accomplishment of Obamas first term is to make Congress irrelevant Under the myopic and blindly loyal leadership of Harry
Reid and Nancy Pelosi the Democrats have succeeded in creating an imperial and in a second term a potential dictatorial presidency
During the first two years of the Obama administration when the Democrats overwhelming controlled both Houses of Congress and the media was in
an Obama worshipping stupor a myriad of laws were passed and actions taken which transferred virtually unlimited power to the executive branch The birth of multi-thousand page laws was not an aberration This tactic was adopted so the bureaucracy controlled by Obama appointees would
have sole discretion in interpreting vaguely written laws and enforcing thousands of pages of regulations they and not Congress would subsequently
write
For example in the 2700 pages of ObamaCare there are more than 2500 references to the Secretary of Health and Human Services There are more
than 700 instances when he or she is instructed that they shall do something and more than 200 times when they may take at their sole discretion
some form of regulatory action On 139 occasions the law mentions that the Secretary determines In essence one person appointed by and
reporting to the president will be in charge of the health care of 310 million Americans once ObamaCare is fully operational in 2014
The same is true in the 2319 pages of the Dodd-Frank Financial Reform Act which confers nearly unlimited power on various agencies to control by
fiat the nations financial banking and investment sectors The bill also creates new agencies such as the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau not
subject to any oversight by Congress This overall process was repeated numerous times with other legislation all with the intent of granting
unfettered power to the executive branch controlled Barack Obama and his radical associates
Additionally the Obama administration has through its unilaterally determined rule making and regulatory powers created laws out of whole cloth
The Environmental Protection Agency on a near daily basis issues new regulations clearly out of their purview in order to modify and change
environmental laws previously passed and to impose a radical green agenda never approved by Congress The same is true of the Energy and Interior
Departments among many others
None of these extra-constitutional actions have been challenged by Congress The left in America knows this usurpation of power is nearly
impossible to reverse unless stopped in its early stages
It is clearly the mindset of this administration and its appointees that Congress is merely a nuisance and can be ignored after they were able to take
full advantage of the useful idiots in the Democrat controlled House and Senate in 2009-2010 and the Democrat Senate in the current Congress Additionally Barack Obama knows after his re-election a Republican controlled House and Senate will not be able to enact any legislation to roll
back the power previously granted to the Executive Branch or usurped by them His veto will not be overridden as there will always be at least 145
Democratic members of the House or 34 in the Senate in agreement with or intimidated by an administration more than willing to use Chicago style
political tactics
The stalemate between the Executive and Legislative Branches will inure to the benefit of Barack Obama and his fellow leftists The most significant power Congress has is the control of the purse-strings as all spending must be approved by them However once re-elected
Barack Obama as confirmed by his willingness to do or say anything and his unscrupulous re-election tactics would not only threaten government
shutdowns but would deliberately withhold payments to those dependent on government support as a means of intimidating and forcing a Republican
controlled Congress to surrender to his demands thus neutering their ability to control the administration through spending constraints Further this administration has shown contempt for the courts by ignoring various court orders eg the Gulf of Mexico oil drilling moratorium as
well as stonewalling subpoenas and requests issued by Congress The Eric Holder Justice Department has become the epitome of corruption as part
of the most dishonest and deceitful administration in American history In a second term the arrogance of Barack Obama and his minions will
become more blatant as he will not have to be concerned with re-election
Who will be there to enforce the rule of law a Supreme Court ruling or the Constitution No one Barack Obama and his fellow-travelers will be
unchallenged as they run roughshod over the American people
Many Republicans and conservatives dissatisfied with the prospect of Mitt Romney as the nominee for president are instead focused on re-taking the
House and Senate That goal while worthy and necessary is meaningless unless Barack Obama is defeated The nation is not dealing with a person
of character and integrity but someone of single-minded purpose and overwhelming narcissism Judging by his actions words and deeds during his
first term he does not intend to work with Congress either Republican or Democrat in his second term but rather to force his radical agenda on the
American people through the power he has usurped or been granted
The governmental structure of the United States was set up by the founders in the hope that over the years only those people of high moral character
and integrity would assume the reins of power However knowing that was not always possible they dispersed power over three distinct and
independent branches as a check on each other
14
Obamas Second Term Transformation Plans (cont)
What they could not imagine is the surrender and abdication of its constitutional duty by the preeminent governmental branch the Congress to a
chief executive devoid of any character or integrity coupled with a judiciary essentially powerless to enforce the law when the chief executive ignores
them
Conservatives Libertarians the Republican Party and Mitt Romney must come to grips with this moment in time and their historical role in denying
Barack Obama and his minions their ultimate goal All resources must be directed at that end-game and not merely controlling Congress and the
various committee chairmanships

Winning the Youth Vote
Posted by Mindy Reifer 12pc on May 03 2012 middot Flag
After clearly indicating their strategic ploys to secure the women vote this election cycle Democrats are now sharpening their rhetoric aimed at reclaiming the youth vote President Obama directed his April campaigning towards college students focusing on college-loan rates and other university-related political issues
Since the 2008 election results were first analyzed the prominence of the youth vote has weighed heavily on both Democratic and Republican candidatesrsquo campaign decisions The popular myth circulating is that for Obamarsquos 2008 win the youth vote turned out in remarkably unprecedented numbers And all Obama has to do is continue this pattern to secure his
electoral victory
But that might be easier said than done this time around
First Obama did not in fact grow the youth vote very much and certainly not in unprecedented numbers What Obama actually did accomplish in 2008 was to turn the youth vote largely
away from Republicans securing a majority of votes from voters aged 18-29 The actual growth of the youth vote though was just 1
Posting on the Washington Postrsquos website on April 24 Chris Cillizza and Aaron Blakeat demonstrate that while political organizations claimed that Obamarsquos election was in part due to a more than 22 million youth voter turnout increase ldquoyoung voters comprised 18 percent of the electorate in 2008 a one-point improvement from their share of the electorate in 2004 2000
and 1996 but nowhere near the heights they reached in the 1980srdquo
Misrepresentation of Obamarsquos success at the polls led to many dishonest facts being promulgated to bolster the supposed turnout-increasing abilities of our president Even before the
finally tally in 2008 Heather Smith of Rock the Vote (as quoted by Melissa Dahl on MSNBCcom) said ldquoWe expected record turnout and that is what wersquore seeing right nowrdquo
Hindsight proved that it was not at all a record turnout certainly not when the 1980 and 1984 Reagan Revolution is considered but it was a record margin in favor of the Democratic nominee And this youth vote clobbering likely tilted the election in Obamarsquos favor Dahl says that ldquoyoung voters preferred Obama over John McCain by 68 percent to 30 percent mdash the
highest share of the youth vote obtained by any candidate since exit polls began reporting results by age in 1976 according to CIRCLE a non-partisan organizationrdquo
It is not only Obama and Democrats who are going after the youth vote At the same time that Obama was appealing to his prime target Romney was giving stump speeches about
student loans and college costs (In pure campaign-mode Obama demanded that Congress keep student loan rates low something that Republicans in Congress have also supported)
It remains to be seen if Obama will once again secure the youth vote or by what margin
This time around Republicans have a stronger platform to run on Obamarsquos record Statistics released by the Republican Study Committee on April 30 show that more than half of recent
college graduates are unemployed or underemployed In fact 85 of college graduates will be moving back home with their parents hardly the ideal goal of a college grad
Many of the youngest of 2008rsquos voters have now graduated college and are finding themselves enveloped in student debt and facing the harsh realities of the Obama recession And of
course the older end of the youth vote have now matured somewhat witnessing first-hand the destruction Obamarsquos policies have wrought on our economy and foreign image
And it is up to this very demographic to perhaps effect the biggest change in the election outcome this November But unfortunately youth voters are still favoring Obama over Romney by a strong margin strong enough to win him reelection An April 2012 Washington Post-ABC survey showed Obama leading Romney by 21 points among 18-29-year olds Romney is
correct in assuming he needs to appeal to the youth vote not just to grow the turnout but more importantly to urge deflections over to the Republicans side in order to secure the election
Romney needs to focus on the economy not just student loan rates He needs to remind young voters that they will need jobs to pay back their loans no matter how low interest rates remain And moving back home with Mom and Dad is no way to spend onersquos first year as a college graduate America needs to once again be a nation of unique unprecedented
economy opportunity and a 2012 ldquoReaganrdquo revolution is necessary to put the US back on track to prosperity

The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
December 9 2011
By Sara Noble
ldquoThe elective franchise if guarded as the ark of our safety will peaceably dissipate all combinations to subvert a Constitution dictated by the
wisdom and resting on the will of the peoplerdquo ~ Thomas Jefferson
While Americans are focused on the election the Progressive wing of the Democratic Party funded by two eccentric businessmen and a George Soros son are stealthily orchestrating the decimation of the voting process and states rights through the National Popular Vote Compact (NPV)
The NPV is a popular sound bite that will do the opposite of what it is portrayed to do ndash make each Americanrsquos vote count It does not do that
because it keeps the electoral college but misuses it What it actually does is create a ldquoforced mergerrdquo between heavily populated states and less populated states
Currently moving at a rapid pace the NPV is a state-by-state initiative that will force states to allocate their electoral votes to the winner of
the national popular vote rather than the winner of the popular vote in their state
NPV will greatly reduce the power of most states in that the highly populated states will be able to gain the electoral votes and in fact 11 states could decide the Presidential election
California Texas New York Florida Illinois Pennsylvania Ohio Michigan Georgia North Carolina and New Jersey have 57 of the votes cast
in 2008 and together they have 270 electoral votes the amount necessary to win the election Do you want these states to decide who is President
while other states have no say
Is this what the Founding Fathers wanted An election based on demographics and geographics
Why is the current structure of the electoral college so important Our Founding Fathers believed that the state by state disbursed system
maintained the sovereignty of the states and disallowed Federalism The containment of ldquomischiefrdquo or voter fraud of the ACORN type is contained within states instead of being spread nationally The electoral college provides balance and firewalls against voter fraud
Do you believe all states should be purple and not red or blue Then you do NOT want the NPV Supporters of the NPV claim it will favor
Republicans in that there are more underutilized Republican votes than Democratic votes which I doubt since the heavily populated states are predominantly liberal Whether this is true or not does not matter
17
The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
(cont)
We should not favor one side or the other in the United States of America
The initiative has been approved by half the states necessary to pass it The states that have approved it equal 70 electoral votes and only 138 are needed for it to pass It is well on its way to becoming law
NPV circumvents the Constitution by allowing individual states to change the Constitution without an amendment However the compact clause of
the Constitution does not allow any state to ldquoenter into any Agreement or Compact with another Staterdquo Liberal states like California could join with
Illinois New York and another 8 other liberal states forming a super bloc that would give all their electoral votes to the winner forming the bloc that could take the election
Article V specifically states that the Constitution must be amended ldquono State without its Consent shall be deprived of its equal Suffrage in the Senaterdquo The NPV as structured will immediately take effect without an amendment and it will probably be in time for the 2012 election
NPV has bipartisan support and the opposition should be bipartisan as well It is not a partisan issue it is about states rights and the power of each individual guaranteed by the electoral college
NPV will have many unwanted side effects The states that decide the election will probably be the states that receive the federal dollars because
their votes count They will likely be the only states that candidates will visit
Another problematic side effect reared its ugly head in my own Congressional district on Long Island Our congressman Tim Bishop received most
of his funding from New York City and other areas outside Long Island including as far away as California NPV will encourage the influx of money from outside the key 11 states It will be lobbying on steroids
Then there is the nationalization of voter fraud Some states require proof of citizenship photo IDrsquos no IDrsquos but NPV will eliminate that choice and the containment of fraud that states provide
I personally experienced absentee voter fraud For example one woman voted from Canada and used the address of a local middle school The courts
in NY let these votes stand Even the dead people we found were counted because you only have a few days to prove they are dead and courts want a
death certificate which is hard to get on hundreds of people in a matter of days So in NY dead people vote I happen to know of a number of illegal
aliens who voted as well
In Kansas the Democratic primary of Rizzo vs Royster shows the seriousness of voter fraud A group in support of Rizzo brought in 50 Somali nationals to vote Rizzo won by one vote
ACORN often mobilizes aliens to vote
In Mississippi 23 counties had more people registered to vote than were alive
Examples are endless though some would have us believe fraud is not a widespread problem
There is the costly and lengthy litigation which will ensue if NPV passes Examples are -
What happens constitutionally if a state in the NPV doesnrsquot like the candidate they are forced to give their electoral votes to and pulls out of the
compact though they are not free to do so
NPV does not meet equal protection under the 14th amendment for the states who do not sign on to the NPV
The compact clause Article I suggests it needs congressional approval
Article II delegates power to the states which the NPV overrides
Administratively a non-qualified person not even on the ballot could win it will force states with solid voting requirements to go with those who
allow rampant fraud if they have higher population density the individuality of states that includes early voter registration felons voting voting by mail et cetera will dissolve into the requirements of the heavily populated states Close elections will cause inevitable and lengthy delays
There is even a question of whether some states will be able to vote under the compact
18
The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
(cont)
Litigation will take a long time and could end up leaving the incumbent President in place for months or years
NPV will -
Federalize the vote
Destroy state sovereignty in the Presidential election
Circumvent the Constitution
Disenfranchise voters by giving 11 states the power to decide the election
It will ignite endless litigation
Reduce voting to the lowest common denominator
Give a handful of states supremacy
NPV is a ldquoone size fits allrdquo and it forces many states to abandon the voting procedures and policies that make them unique It focuses on the end
results and sacrifices process

GETTING INVOLVED IN YOUR PRECINCT
WHY Because we believe ldquoall politics is localrdquo
Become involved at the local level to restore conservative values and principles that will then ldquotrickle UPrdquo to all levels of government
MOPP is not the first to utilize this strategy ndash Phyllis Schlafly implemented the ldquoprecinct strategyrdquo to defeat the ERA 30+ years ago
We believe that Missouri needed to join the ranks of other states with similar efforts including Texas Florida Pennsylvania Nevada and
Utah
We want to encourage Missourians across the State to work in their own communities and counties to make a differencehellip
WHAT MOPPrsquos 4 pronged strategy
1 Key element (hence the name Missouri Precinct Project) Identify the 40-50 of the unfilled precincttownship
committee positions in their county that go unfilled (many of our members have filed to fill these positions across the
state ndash ie St Louis County stat 35 new)
2 Get out the Conservative vote ndash
a MOPP encourages its members to utilize our database (we are in the final stage of determining which program we
will be using) to canvass their neighborhood to identify and register conservative voters educate voters on issues
and candidates and get them to the polls on election day
b MOPP also partners with ldquoChampion The Votehellipencouraging our volunteers to become Champions in the
Champion the Vote program to register unregistered Christian voters (in Missouri in 2008 there was only a
4000 difference between the 2 presidential candidateshellipthatrsquos a pretty close margin but yet there are
approximately 150000 unregistered Christians in the State)
Go here to become a ldquoChampionrdquo httpchampionthevotecomheadquartersmissouri
3 Encourage becoming a poll worker to help prevent voter fraud
4 Build and maintain a database in order to form a more effective coalition united voice for Conservatives across the State

IN SUMMARY If we are ever to get control of our government and change the type of people we get into office and the control that big-
money currently brings we must get directly and actively involved at the grassroots level in the two-party system
It is not going to be easy and it is not going to change overnight But without this approach we are simply reshuffling the
chairs on the deck of the Titanic Do we just want the furniture to look better before we crash into the iceberg or do we
want to change the shiprsquos course to prevent it from sinking
Mission Statement
Restore Constitutional principles and conservative values by engaging conservatives in grassroots politics

Analysis Conservatives used tactics of the left in Wisconsin win (cont)
UNION FAULTS
Analysts said Democrats and unions made fundamental mistakes in Wisconsin Instead of uniting behind one candidate to challenge Walker
Democrats waged a divisive primary and most unions did not back the eventual winner Tom Barrett who has had his own disputes with unions
as mayor of Milwaukee
The Democrats lost valuable time and money while Walker was traveling the country collecting millions of dollars to back his election effort
They also may have miscalculated in choosing Barrett who previously had lost to Walker in 2010
If they are going to recall a governor it hardly makes sense to try to challenge him with a candidate who lost against him last time said Marick
Masters a professor of business and director of labor studies at Wayne State University in Detroit
On Wednesday top labor leaders such as AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka and Teamsters General President Jim Hoffa were not
acknowledging any mistakes publicly and dismissed the idea that events in Wisconsin had a broad implications for the labor movements future
Walker needed every last dime and every last divisive TV ad to maintain a weakened hold on his office Trumka said
Success in Wisconsin this year came with the aid of technology such as a new get-out-the-vote app called Gravity that American Majority Action
provided free to Tea Party activists as conservatives targeted like-minded voters
Prior to the election Tea Party activists reported encountering voters who backed Walker but would be out of state on the day of the election So
activists helped them fill out absentee ballots
We would have lost those votes if we hadnt showed up said Matt Batzel state director of American Majority Action Thats what this is all
about
Note The above article documents how the grassroots played an integral role in the Wisconsin recall A new ldquoget out the voterdquo app called ldquoGravityrdquohellipand groups like American Majority and True the Vote were all part of a unified effort with many other grassroots organizations both local and national to help achieve victory The sophistication of these programs coupled with the manpower and passion of the grassroots movement was a ldquowinningrdquo combination These same tools and strategies will be showcased at our MOPP ldquoWinning in Novemberrdquo seminar that will take place on July 14 2012 We hope you make plans to attend and join us to learn how you can utilize these tools for victory in November

November Is a Plebiscite On the American Revolution
REPRINTED FROM Tuesday May 01 2012
Election Day 2012 will not be a presidential election It will be a plebiscite
Americans will not only be voting for a president (and a House and a third of the Senate) They will be participating in a plebiscite on the definition of America If Americans re-elect the Democrat Barack Obama they will have announced that America should be like Western European countries -- governed by left-wing values Americans will have decided that Americas value system -- Liberty In God We Trust E Pluribus Unum -- should be replaced The election in November is therefore a plebiscite on the American Revolution The usual description of presidential elections -- the most important in our lifetime -- is true this time In fact it may be the most important election since the Civil War and possibly since Americas founding
The left knows what is at stake And the most left-wing president in American history knows what is at stake Candidate Obama announced shortly before the 2008 election We are five days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America He described the lefts aim perfectly to fundamentally transform America It seeks to replace Liberty In God We Trust and E Pluribus Unum That is what fundamentally transform means In fact those words are proof that American values and leftist values are fundamentally opposed to one another
The right on the other hand seeks to maintain Americas values Conservatives want to improve America but as its name implies conservatism seeks to conserve not transform Liberty means first and foremost limited government -- because bigger government means less individual liberty In God We Trust means that America must be rooted in Creator-based values There are no inalienable rights if no rights derive from God And E Pluribus Unum means the assumption of an American identity by all citizens regardless of their racial ethnic or national background
The left seeks to replace Liberty with Equality Material inequality is the great evil and if individual liberty needs to be sacrificed to attain equality so be it Creator-based values are to be replaced by government-based values God-fearing is to be replaced by State-fearing God must be removed from schools and wherever else the left can succeed in doing so E Pluribus Unum is to be replaced by multiculturalism For leftism the very words American identity conjure up chauvinism if not fascism
For these reasons this election is not just a choice between a Democrat and a Republican It is between Americanism and leftism This does not mean that left-wing Americans are un-American or unpatriotic -- or that they do not love their country The conflict between Americanism and leftism is between ideas not between decent and indecent people But it is an unfortunate fact of life that decent people can believe in bad ideas If this were not so few of the greatest evils would ever have occurred
If this election is indeed a plebiscite on America Mitt Romney cannot campaign solely or even primarily on the state of the economy First what if the economy even slightly improves What happens then to Governor Romneys appeal Moreover relying for ones success on the suffering of ones fellow Americans is morally as well as politically perilous Second Americans want to vote for more than an economic Mr Fix-It as desirable as such a person is
So too Mr Romney should not overly personalize his campaign He is running against Obama but Barack Obama is not the biggest issue The lefts desire to transform America is the biggest issue Barack Obama is to be opposed because he is a man of the left Mitt Romney and the entire Republican Party need to describe this election as the plebiscite on America that it is The most urgent task in American life is to make clear and then repeat as often as possible leftist values and American values are in conflict
Instead of asking Are you better off than you were three years ago Every Republican needs to ask every day Do you want to fundamentally transform America If they do Barack Obama is their man If they dont Mitt Romney is
NOTE The Missouri Caucuses are completed A lot of people got involved this year and were very passionate about the various
candidates Not everybody is happy One even hears that voting for the supposed nominee Mitt Romney is no different than Barack Obama So why bother to vote We should all remember that the next President will probably be in a position to nominate up to four Supreme Court justices So keep this in mind when you make your decisions about who to support Current age of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg - 79 years Stephen Breyer - 73 years
Anthony Kennedy - 75 years Antonin Scalia - 76 tears We cannot afford to have a President Obama replace any Supreme Court Justices but especially not a Antonin Scalia Especially if we do not have at least 41 Senators that would be willing to stand up and vote no for any Supreme Court nominee that does not have true constitutional credentials Supposedly Mitt Romney has appointed a group of individuals to review possible candidates for the Supreme Court This is encouraging especially since the man heading this group is Robert Borck one of the best constitutional jurists this country has ever produced

Obamas Second Term Transformation Plans By Steve McCann
The 2012 election has often been described as the most pivotal since 1860 This statement is not hyperbole If Barack Obama is re-elected the
United States will never be the same nor will it be able to re-capture its once lofty status as the most dominant nation in the history of mankind The overwhelming majority of Americans do not understand that Obamas first term was dedicated to putting in place executive power to enable him
and the administration to fulfill the campaign promise of transforming America in his second term regardless of which political party controls
Congress That is why his re-election team is virtually ignoring the plight of incumbent or prospective Democratic Party office holders
The most significant accomplishment of Obamas first term is to make Congress irrelevant Under the myopic and blindly loyal leadership of Harry
Reid and Nancy Pelosi the Democrats have succeeded in creating an imperial and in a second term a potential dictatorial presidency
During the first two years of the Obama administration when the Democrats overwhelming controlled both Houses of Congress and the media was in
an Obama worshipping stupor a myriad of laws were passed and actions taken which transferred virtually unlimited power to the executive branch The birth of multi-thousand page laws was not an aberration This tactic was adopted so the bureaucracy controlled by Obama appointees would
have sole discretion in interpreting vaguely written laws and enforcing thousands of pages of regulations they and not Congress would subsequently
write
For example in the 2700 pages of ObamaCare there are more than 2500 references to the Secretary of Health and Human Services There are more
than 700 instances when he or she is instructed that they shall do something and more than 200 times when they may take at their sole discretion
some form of regulatory action On 139 occasions the law mentions that the Secretary determines In essence one person appointed by and
reporting to the president will be in charge of the health care of 310 million Americans once ObamaCare is fully operational in 2014
The same is true in the 2319 pages of the Dodd-Frank Financial Reform Act which confers nearly unlimited power on various agencies to control by
fiat the nations financial banking and investment sectors The bill also creates new agencies such as the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau not
subject to any oversight by Congress This overall process was repeated numerous times with other legislation all with the intent of granting
unfettered power to the executive branch controlled Barack Obama and his radical associates
Additionally the Obama administration has through its unilaterally determined rule making and regulatory powers created laws out of whole cloth
The Environmental Protection Agency on a near daily basis issues new regulations clearly out of their purview in order to modify and change
environmental laws previously passed and to impose a radical green agenda never approved by Congress The same is true of the Energy and Interior
Departments among many others
None of these extra-constitutional actions have been challenged by Congress The left in America knows this usurpation of power is nearly
impossible to reverse unless stopped in its early stages
It is clearly the mindset of this administration and its appointees that Congress is merely a nuisance and can be ignored after they were able to take
full advantage of the useful idiots in the Democrat controlled House and Senate in 2009-2010 and the Democrat Senate in the current Congress Additionally Barack Obama knows after his re-election a Republican controlled House and Senate will not be able to enact any legislation to roll
back the power previously granted to the Executive Branch or usurped by them His veto will not be overridden as there will always be at least 145
Democratic members of the House or 34 in the Senate in agreement with or intimidated by an administration more than willing to use Chicago style
political tactics
The stalemate between the Executive and Legislative Branches will inure to the benefit of Barack Obama and his fellow leftists The most significant power Congress has is the control of the purse-strings as all spending must be approved by them However once re-elected
Barack Obama as confirmed by his willingness to do or say anything and his unscrupulous re-election tactics would not only threaten government
shutdowns but would deliberately withhold payments to those dependent on government support as a means of intimidating and forcing a Republican
controlled Congress to surrender to his demands thus neutering their ability to control the administration through spending constraints Further this administration has shown contempt for the courts by ignoring various court orders eg the Gulf of Mexico oil drilling moratorium as
well as stonewalling subpoenas and requests issued by Congress The Eric Holder Justice Department has become the epitome of corruption as part
of the most dishonest and deceitful administration in American history In a second term the arrogance of Barack Obama and his minions will
become more blatant as he will not have to be concerned with re-election
Who will be there to enforce the rule of law a Supreme Court ruling or the Constitution No one Barack Obama and his fellow-travelers will be
unchallenged as they run roughshod over the American people
Many Republicans and conservatives dissatisfied with the prospect of Mitt Romney as the nominee for president are instead focused on re-taking the
House and Senate That goal while worthy and necessary is meaningless unless Barack Obama is defeated The nation is not dealing with a person
of character and integrity but someone of single-minded purpose and overwhelming narcissism Judging by his actions words and deeds during his
first term he does not intend to work with Congress either Republican or Democrat in his second term but rather to force his radical agenda on the
American people through the power he has usurped or been granted
The governmental structure of the United States was set up by the founders in the hope that over the years only those people of high moral character
and integrity would assume the reins of power However knowing that was not always possible they dispersed power over three distinct and
independent branches as a check on each other
14
Obamas Second Term Transformation Plans (cont)
What they could not imagine is the surrender and abdication of its constitutional duty by the preeminent governmental branch the Congress to a
chief executive devoid of any character or integrity coupled with a judiciary essentially powerless to enforce the law when the chief executive ignores
them
Conservatives Libertarians the Republican Party and Mitt Romney must come to grips with this moment in time and their historical role in denying
Barack Obama and his minions their ultimate goal All resources must be directed at that end-game and not merely controlling Congress and the
various committee chairmanships

After clearly indicating their strategic ploys to secure the women vote this election cycle Democrats are now sharpening their rhetoric aimed at reclaiming the youth vote President Obama directed his April campaigning towards college students focusing on college-loan rates and other university-related political issues
Since the 2008 election results were first analyzed the prominence of the youth vote has weighed heavily on both Democratic and Republican candidatesrsquo campaign decisions The popular myth circulating is that for Obamarsquos 2008 win the youth vote turned out in remarkably unprecedented numbers And all Obama has to do is continue this pattern to secure his
electoral victory
But that might be easier said than done this time around
First Obama did not in fact grow the youth vote very much and certainly not in unprecedented numbers What Obama actually did accomplish in 2008 was to turn the youth vote largely
away from Republicans securing a majority of votes from voters aged 18-29 The actual growth of the youth vote though was just 1
Posting on the Washington Postrsquos website on April 24 Chris Cillizza and Aaron Blakeat demonstrate that while political organizations claimed that Obamarsquos election was in part due to a more than 22 million youth voter turnout increase ldquoyoung voters comprised 18 percent of the electorate in 2008 a one-point improvement from their share of the electorate in 2004 2000
and 1996 but nowhere near the heights they reached in the 1980srdquo
Misrepresentation of Obamarsquos success at the polls led to many dishonest facts being promulgated to bolster the supposed turnout-increasing abilities of our president Even before the
finally tally in 2008 Heather Smith of Rock the Vote (as quoted by Melissa Dahl on MSNBCcom) said ldquoWe expected record turnout and that is what wersquore seeing right nowrdquo
Hindsight proved that it was not at all a record turnout certainly not when the 1980 and 1984 Reagan Revolution is considered but it was a record margin in favor of the Democratic nominee And this youth vote clobbering likely tilted the election in Obamarsquos favor Dahl says that ldquoyoung voters preferred Obama over John McCain by 68 percent to 30 percent mdash the
highest share of the youth vote obtained by any candidate since exit polls began reporting results by age in 1976 according to CIRCLE a non-partisan organizationrdquo
It is not only Obama and Democrats who are going after the youth vote At the same time that Obama was appealing to his prime target Romney was giving stump speeches about
student loans and college costs (In pure campaign-mode Obama demanded that Congress keep student loan rates low something that Republicans in Congress have also supported)
It remains to be seen if Obama will once again secure the youth vote or by what margin
This time around Republicans have a stronger platform to run on Obamarsquos record Statistics released by the Republican Study Committee on April 30 show that more than half of recent
college graduates are unemployed or underemployed In fact 85 of college graduates will be moving back home with their parents hardly the ideal goal of a college grad
Many of the youngest of 2008rsquos voters have now graduated college and are finding themselves enveloped in student debt and facing the harsh realities of the Obama recession And of
course the older end of the youth vote have now matured somewhat witnessing first-hand the destruction Obamarsquos policies have wrought on our economy and foreign image
And it is up to this very demographic to perhaps effect the biggest change in the election outcome this November But unfortunately youth voters are still favoring Obama over Romney by a strong margin strong enough to win him reelection An April 2012 Washington Post-ABC survey showed Obama leading Romney by 21 points among 18-29-year olds Romney is
correct in assuming he needs to appeal to the youth vote not just to grow the turnout but more importantly to urge deflections over to the Republicans side in order to secure the election
Romney needs to focus on the economy not just student loan rates He needs to remind young voters that they will need jobs to pay back their loans no matter how low interest rates remain And moving back home with Mom and Dad is no way to spend onersquos first year as a college graduate America needs to once again be a nation of unique unprecedented
economy opportunity and a 2012 ldquoReaganrdquo revolution is necessary to put the US back on track to prosperity

The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
December 9 2011
By Sara Noble
ldquoThe elective franchise if guarded as the ark of our safety will peaceably dissipate all combinations to subvert a Constitution dictated by the
wisdom and resting on the will of the peoplerdquo ~ Thomas Jefferson
While Americans are focused on the election the Progressive wing of the Democratic Party funded by two eccentric businessmen and a George Soros son are stealthily orchestrating the decimation of the voting process and states rights through the National Popular Vote Compact (NPV)
The NPV is a popular sound bite that will do the opposite of what it is portrayed to do ndash make each Americanrsquos vote count It does not do that
because it keeps the electoral college but misuses it What it actually does is create a ldquoforced mergerrdquo between heavily populated states and less populated states
Currently moving at a rapid pace the NPV is a state-by-state initiative that will force states to allocate their electoral votes to the winner of
the national popular vote rather than the winner of the popular vote in their state
NPV will greatly reduce the power of most states in that the highly populated states will be able to gain the electoral votes and in fact 11 states could decide the Presidential election
California Texas New York Florida Illinois Pennsylvania Ohio Michigan Georgia North Carolina and New Jersey have 57 of the votes cast
in 2008 and together they have 270 electoral votes the amount necessary to win the election Do you want these states to decide who is President
while other states have no say
Is this what the Founding Fathers wanted An election based on demographics and geographics
Why is the current structure of the electoral college so important Our Founding Fathers believed that the state by state disbursed system
maintained the sovereignty of the states and disallowed Federalism The containment of ldquomischiefrdquo or voter fraud of the ACORN type is contained within states instead of being spread nationally The electoral college provides balance and firewalls against voter fraud
Do you believe all states should be purple and not red or blue Then you do NOT want the NPV Supporters of the NPV claim it will favor
Republicans in that there are more underutilized Republican votes than Democratic votes which I doubt since the heavily populated states are predominantly liberal Whether this is true or not does not matter
17
The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
(cont)
We should not favor one side or the other in the United States of America
The initiative has been approved by half the states necessary to pass it The states that have approved it equal 70 electoral votes and only 138 are needed for it to pass It is well on its way to becoming law
NPV circumvents the Constitution by allowing individual states to change the Constitution without an amendment However the compact clause of
the Constitution does not allow any state to ldquoenter into any Agreement or Compact with another Staterdquo Liberal states like California could join with
Illinois New York and another 8 other liberal states forming a super bloc that would give all their electoral votes to the winner forming the bloc that could take the election
Article V specifically states that the Constitution must be amended ldquono State without its Consent shall be deprived of its equal Suffrage in the Senaterdquo The NPV as structured will immediately take effect without an amendment and it will probably be in time for the 2012 election
NPV has bipartisan support and the opposition should be bipartisan as well It is not a partisan issue it is about states rights and the power of each individual guaranteed by the electoral college
NPV will have many unwanted side effects The states that decide the election will probably be the states that receive the federal dollars because
their votes count They will likely be the only states that candidates will visit
Another problematic side effect reared its ugly head in my own Congressional district on Long Island Our congressman Tim Bishop received most
of his funding from New York City and other areas outside Long Island including as far away as California NPV will encourage the influx of money from outside the key 11 states It will be lobbying on steroids
Then there is the nationalization of voter fraud Some states require proof of citizenship photo IDrsquos no IDrsquos but NPV will eliminate that choice and the containment of fraud that states provide
I personally experienced absentee voter fraud For example one woman voted from Canada and used the address of a local middle school The courts
in NY let these votes stand Even the dead people we found were counted because you only have a few days to prove they are dead and courts want a
death certificate which is hard to get on hundreds of people in a matter of days So in NY dead people vote I happen to know of a number of illegal
aliens who voted as well
In Kansas the Democratic primary of Rizzo vs Royster shows the seriousness of voter fraud A group in support of Rizzo brought in 50 Somali nationals to vote Rizzo won by one vote
ACORN often mobilizes aliens to vote
In Mississippi 23 counties had more people registered to vote than were alive
Examples are endless though some would have us believe fraud is not a widespread problem
There is the costly and lengthy litigation which will ensue if NPV passes Examples are -
What happens constitutionally if a state in the NPV doesnrsquot like the candidate they are forced to give their electoral votes to and pulls out of the
compact though they are not free to do so
NPV does not meet equal protection under the 14th amendment for the states who do not sign on to the NPV
The compact clause Article I suggests it needs congressional approval
Article II delegates power to the states which the NPV overrides
Administratively a non-qualified person not even on the ballot could win it will force states with solid voting requirements to go with those who
allow rampant fraud if they have higher population density the individuality of states that includes early voter registration felons voting voting by mail et cetera will dissolve into the requirements of the heavily populated states Close elections will cause inevitable and lengthy delays
There is even a question of whether some states will be able to vote under the compact
18
The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
(cont)
Litigation will take a long time and could end up leaving the incumbent President in place for months or years
NPV will -
Federalize the vote
Destroy state sovereignty in the Presidential election
Circumvent the Constitution
Disenfranchise voters by giving 11 states the power to decide the election
It will ignite endless litigation
Reduce voting to the lowest common denominator
Give a handful of states supremacy
NPV is a ldquoone size fits allrdquo and it forces many states to abandon the voting procedures and policies that make them unique It focuses on the end
results and sacrifices process

NOTE One of our very own Republican Missouri Legislators introduced a bill in the last legislative session in favor of the National Popular Vote and to eliminate the Electoral College Dwight Scharnhorst (93rd District before re-districting) explained that he did not know that what this bill was about and that is why he introduced it Unfortunately MrScharnhorst is now running unopposed in the newly re-districted 88th District

GETTING INVOLVED IN YOUR PRECINCT
WHY Because we believe ldquoall politics is localrdquo
Become involved at the local level to restore conservative values and principles that will then ldquotrickle UPrdquo to all levels of government
MOPP is not the first to utilize this strategy ndash Phyllis Schlafly implemented the ldquoprecinct strategyrdquo to defeat the ERA 30+ years ago
We believe that Missouri needed to join the ranks of other states with similar efforts including Texas Florida Pennsylvania Nevada and
Utah
We want to encourage Missourians across the State to work in their own communities and counties to make a differencehellip
WHAT MOPPrsquos 4 pronged strategy
1 Key element (hence the name Missouri Precinct Project) Identify the 40-50 of the unfilled precincttownship
committee positions in their county that go unfilled (many of our members have filed to fill these positions across the
state ndash ie St Louis County stat 35 new)
2 Get out the Conservative vote ndash
a MOPP encourages its members to utilize our database (we are in the final stage of determining which program we
will be using) to canvass their neighborhood to identify and register conservative voters educate voters on issues
and candidates and get them to the polls on election day
b MOPP also partners with ldquoChampion The Votehellipencouraging our volunteers to become Champions in the
Champion the Vote program to register unregistered Christian voters (in Missouri in 2008 there was only a
4000 difference between the 2 presidential candidateshellipthatrsquos a pretty close margin but yet there are
approximately 150000 unregistered Christians in the State)
Go here to become a ldquoChampionrdquo httpchampionthevotecomheadquartersmissouri
3 Encourage becoming a poll worker to help prevent voter fraud
4 Build and maintain a database in order to form a more effective coalition united voice for Conservatives across the State

IN SUMMARY If we are ever to get control of our government and change the type of people we get into office and the control that big-
money currently brings we must get directly and actively involved at the grassroots level in the two-party system
It is not going to be easy and it is not going to change overnight But without this approach we are simply reshuffling the
chairs on the deck of the Titanic Do we just want the furniture to look better before we crash into the iceberg or do we
want to change the shiprsquos course to prevent it from sinking
Mission Statement
Restore Constitutional principles and conservative values by engaging conservatives in grassroots politics

November Is a Plebiscite On the American Revolution
REPRINTED FROM Tuesday May 01 2012
Election Day 2012 will not be a presidential election It will be a plebiscite
Americans will not only be voting for a president (and a House and a third of the Senate) They will be participating in a plebiscite on the definition of America If Americans re-elect the Democrat Barack Obama they will have announced that America should be like Western European countries -- governed by left-wing values Americans will have decided that Americas value system -- Liberty In God We Trust E Pluribus Unum -- should be replaced The election in November is therefore a plebiscite on the American Revolution The usual description of presidential elections -- the most important in our lifetime -- is true this time In fact it may be the most important election since the Civil War and possibly since Americas founding
The left knows what is at stake And the most left-wing president in American history knows what is at stake Candidate Obama announced shortly before the 2008 election We are five days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America He described the lefts aim perfectly to fundamentally transform America It seeks to replace Liberty In God We Trust and E Pluribus Unum That is what fundamentally transform means In fact those words are proof that American values and leftist values are fundamentally opposed to one another
The right on the other hand seeks to maintain Americas values Conservatives want to improve America but as its name implies conservatism seeks to conserve not transform Liberty means first and foremost limited government -- because bigger government means less individual liberty In God We Trust means that America must be rooted in Creator-based values There are no inalienable rights if no rights derive from God And E Pluribus Unum means the assumption of an American identity by all citizens regardless of their racial ethnic or national background
The left seeks to replace Liberty with Equality Material inequality is the great evil and if individual liberty needs to be sacrificed to attain equality so be it Creator-based values are to be replaced by government-based values God-fearing is to be replaced by State-fearing God must be removed from schools and wherever else the left can succeed in doing so E Pluribus Unum is to be replaced by multiculturalism For leftism the very words American identity conjure up chauvinism if not fascism
For these reasons this election is not just a choice between a Democrat and a Republican It is between Americanism and leftism This does not mean that left-wing Americans are un-American or unpatriotic -- or that they do not love their country The conflict between Americanism and leftism is between ideas not between decent and indecent people But it is an unfortunate fact of life that decent people can believe in bad ideas If this were not so few of the greatest evils would ever have occurred
If this election is indeed a plebiscite on America Mitt Romney cannot campaign solely or even primarily on the state of the economy First what if the economy even slightly improves What happens then to Governor Romneys appeal Moreover relying for ones success on the suffering of ones fellow Americans is morally as well as politically perilous Second Americans want to vote for more than an economic Mr Fix-It as desirable as such a person is
So too Mr Romney should not overly personalize his campaign He is running against Obama but Barack Obama is not the biggest issue The lefts desire to transform America is the biggest issue Barack Obama is to be opposed because he is a man of the left Mitt Romney and the entire Republican Party need to describe this election as the plebiscite on America that it is The most urgent task in American life is to make clear and then repeat as often as possible leftist values and American values are in conflict
Instead of asking Are you better off than you were three years ago Every Republican needs to ask every day Do you want to fundamentally transform America If they do Barack Obama is their man If they dont Mitt Romney is
NOTE The Missouri Caucuses are completed A lot of people got involved this year and were very passionate about the various
candidates Not everybody is happy One even hears that voting for the supposed nominee Mitt Romney is no different than Barack Obama So why bother to vote We should all remember that the next President will probably be in a position to nominate up to four Supreme Court justices So keep this in mind when you make your decisions about who to support Current age of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg - 79 years Stephen Breyer - 73 years
Anthony Kennedy - 75 years Antonin Scalia - 76 tears We cannot afford to have a President Obama replace any Supreme Court Justices but especially not a Antonin Scalia Especially if we do not have at least 41 Senators that would be willing to stand up and vote no for any Supreme Court nominee that does not have true constitutional credentials Supposedly Mitt Romney has appointed a group of individuals to review possible candidates for the Supreme Court This is encouraging especially since the man heading this group is Robert Borck one of the best constitutional jurists this country has ever produced

Obamas Second Term Transformation Plans By Steve McCann
The 2012 election has often been described as the most pivotal since 1860 This statement is not hyperbole If Barack Obama is re-elected the
United States will never be the same nor will it be able to re-capture its once lofty status as the most dominant nation in the history of mankind The overwhelming majority of Americans do not understand that Obamas first term was dedicated to putting in place executive power to enable him
and the administration to fulfill the campaign promise of transforming America in his second term regardless of which political party controls
Congress That is why his re-election team is virtually ignoring the plight of incumbent or prospective Democratic Party office holders
The most significant accomplishment of Obamas first term is to make Congress irrelevant Under the myopic and blindly loyal leadership of Harry
Reid and Nancy Pelosi the Democrats have succeeded in creating an imperial and in a second term a potential dictatorial presidency
During the first two years of the Obama administration when the Democrats overwhelming controlled both Houses of Congress and the media was in
an Obama worshipping stupor a myriad of laws were passed and actions taken which transferred virtually unlimited power to the executive branch The birth of multi-thousand page laws was not an aberration This tactic was adopted so the bureaucracy controlled by Obama appointees would
have sole discretion in interpreting vaguely written laws and enforcing thousands of pages of regulations they and not Congress would subsequently
write
For example in the 2700 pages of ObamaCare there are more than 2500 references to the Secretary of Health and Human Services There are more
than 700 instances when he or she is instructed that they shall do something and more than 200 times when they may take at their sole discretion
some form of regulatory action On 139 occasions the law mentions that the Secretary determines In essence one person appointed by and
reporting to the president will be in charge of the health care of 310 million Americans once ObamaCare is fully operational in 2014
The same is true in the 2319 pages of the Dodd-Frank Financial Reform Act which confers nearly unlimited power on various agencies to control by
fiat the nations financial banking and investment sectors The bill also creates new agencies such as the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau not
subject to any oversight by Congress This overall process was repeated numerous times with other legislation all with the intent of granting
unfettered power to the executive branch controlled Barack Obama and his radical associates
Additionally the Obama administration has through its unilaterally determined rule making and regulatory powers created laws out of whole cloth
The Environmental Protection Agency on a near daily basis issues new regulations clearly out of their purview in order to modify and change
environmental laws previously passed and to impose a radical green agenda never approved by Congress The same is true of the Energy and Interior
Departments among many others
None of these extra-constitutional actions have been challenged by Congress The left in America knows this usurpation of power is nearly
impossible to reverse unless stopped in its early stages
It is clearly the mindset of this administration and its appointees that Congress is merely a nuisance and can be ignored after they were able to take
full advantage of the useful idiots in the Democrat controlled House and Senate in 2009-2010 and the Democrat Senate in the current Congress Additionally Barack Obama knows after his re-election a Republican controlled House and Senate will not be able to enact any legislation to roll
back the power previously granted to the Executive Branch or usurped by them His veto will not be overridden as there will always be at least 145
Democratic members of the House or 34 in the Senate in agreement with or intimidated by an administration more than willing to use Chicago style
political tactics
The stalemate between the Executive and Legislative Branches will inure to the benefit of Barack Obama and his fellow leftists The most significant power Congress has is the control of the purse-strings as all spending must be approved by them However once re-elected
Barack Obama as confirmed by his willingness to do or say anything and his unscrupulous re-election tactics would not only threaten government
shutdowns but would deliberately withhold payments to those dependent on government support as a means of intimidating and forcing a Republican
controlled Congress to surrender to his demands thus neutering their ability to control the administration through spending constraints Further this administration has shown contempt for the courts by ignoring various court orders eg the Gulf of Mexico oil drilling moratorium as
well as stonewalling subpoenas and requests issued by Congress The Eric Holder Justice Department has become the epitome of corruption as part
of the most dishonest and deceitful administration in American history In a second term the arrogance of Barack Obama and his minions will
become more blatant as he will not have to be concerned with re-election
Who will be there to enforce the rule of law a Supreme Court ruling or the Constitution No one Barack Obama and his fellow-travelers will be
unchallenged as they run roughshod over the American people
Many Republicans and conservatives dissatisfied with the prospect of Mitt Romney as the nominee for president are instead focused on re-taking the
House and Senate That goal while worthy and necessary is meaningless unless Barack Obama is defeated The nation is not dealing with a person
of character and integrity but someone of single-minded purpose and overwhelming narcissism Judging by his actions words and deeds during his
first term he does not intend to work with Congress either Republican or Democrat in his second term but rather to force his radical agenda on the
American people through the power he has usurped or been granted
The governmental structure of the United States was set up by the founders in the hope that over the years only those people of high moral character
and integrity would assume the reins of power However knowing that was not always possible they dispersed power over three distinct and
independent branches as a check on each other
14
Obamas Second Term Transformation Plans (cont)
What they could not imagine is the surrender and abdication of its constitutional duty by the preeminent governmental branch the Congress to a
chief executive devoid of any character or integrity coupled with a judiciary essentially powerless to enforce the law when the chief executive ignores
them
Conservatives Libertarians the Republican Party and Mitt Romney must come to grips with this moment in time and their historical role in denying
Barack Obama and his minions their ultimate goal All resources must be directed at that end-game and not merely controlling Congress and the
various committee chairmanships

Winning the Youth Vote
Posted by Mindy Reifer 12pc on May 03 2012 middot Flag
After clearly indicating their strategic ploys to secure the women vote this election cycle Democrats are now sharpening their rhetoric aimed at reclaiming the youth vote President Obama directed his April campaigning towards college students focusing on college-loan rates and other university-related political issues
Since the 2008 election results were first analyzed the prominence of the youth vote has weighed heavily on both Democratic and Republican candidatesrsquo campaign decisions The popular myth circulating is that for Obamarsquos 2008 win the youth vote turned out in remarkably unprecedented numbers And all Obama has to do is continue this pattern to secure his
electoral victory
But that might be easier said than done this time around
First Obama did not in fact grow the youth vote very much and certainly not in unprecedented numbers What Obama actually did accomplish in 2008 was to turn the youth vote largely
away from Republicans securing a majority of votes from voters aged 18-29 The actual growth of the youth vote though was just 1
Posting on the Washington Postrsquos website on April 24 Chris Cillizza and Aaron Blakeat demonstrate that while political organizations claimed that Obamarsquos election was in part due to a more than 22 million youth voter turnout increase ldquoyoung voters comprised 18 percent of the electorate in 2008 a one-point improvement from their share of the electorate in 2004 2000
and 1996 but nowhere near the heights they reached in the 1980srdquo
Misrepresentation of Obamarsquos success at the polls led to many dishonest facts being promulgated to bolster the supposed turnout-increasing abilities of our president Even before the
finally tally in 2008 Heather Smith of Rock the Vote (as quoted by Melissa Dahl on MSNBCcom) said ldquoWe expected record turnout and that is what wersquore seeing right nowrdquo
Hindsight proved that it was not at all a record turnout certainly not when the 1980 and 1984 Reagan Revolution is considered but it was a record margin in favor of the Democratic nominee And this youth vote clobbering likely tilted the election in Obamarsquos favor Dahl says that ldquoyoung voters preferred Obama over John McCain by 68 percent to 30 percent mdash the
highest share of the youth vote obtained by any candidate since exit polls began reporting results by age in 1976 according to CIRCLE a non-partisan organizationrdquo
It is not only Obama and Democrats who are going after the youth vote At the same time that Obama was appealing to his prime target Romney was giving stump speeches about
student loans and college costs (In pure campaign-mode Obama demanded that Congress keep student loan rates low something that Republicans in Congress have also supported)
It remains to be seen if Obama will once again secure the youth vote or by what margin
This time around Republicans have a stronger platform to run on Obamarsquos record Statistics released by the Republican Study Committee on April 30 show that more than half of recent
college graduates are unemployed or underemployed In fact 85 of college graduates will be moving back home with their parents hardly the ideal goal of a college grad
Many of the youngest of 2008rsquos voters have now graduated college and are finding themselves enveloped in student debt and facing the harsh realities of the Obama recession And of
course the older end of the youth vote have now matured somewhat witnessing first-hand the destruction Obamarsquos policies have wrought on our economy and foreign image
And it is up to this very demographic to perhaps effect the biggest change in the election outcome this November But unfortunately youth voters are still favoring Obama over Romney by a strong margin strong enough to win him reelection An April 2012 Washington Post-ABC survey showed Obama leading Romney by 21 points among 18-29-year olds Romney is
correct in assuming he needs to appeal to the youth vote not just to grow the turnout but more importantly to urge deflections over to the Republicans side in order to secure the election
Romney needs to focus on the economy not just student loan rates He needs to remind young voters that they will need jobs to pay back their loans no matter how low interest rates remain And moving back home with Mom and Dad is no way to spend onersquos first year as a college graduate America needs to once again be a nation of unique unprecedented
economy opportunity and a 2012 ldquoReaganrdquo revolution is necessary to put the US back on track to prosperity

The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
December 9 2011
By Sara Noble
ldquoThe elective franchise if guarded as the ark of our safety will peaceably dissipate all combinations to subvert a Constitution dictated by the
wisdom and resting on the will of the peoplerdquo ~ Thomas Jefferson
While Americans are focused on the election the Progressive wing of the Democratic Party funded by two eccentric businessmen and a George Soros son are stealthily orchestrating the decimation of the voting process and states rights through the National Popular Vote Compact (NPV)
The NPV is a popular sound bite that will do the opposite of what it is portrayed to do ndash make each Americanrsquos vote count It does not do that
because it keeps the electoral college but misuses it What it actually does is create a ldquoforced mergerrdquo between heavily populated states and less populated states
Currently moving at a rapid pace the NPV is a state-by-state initiative that will force states to allocate their electoral votes to the winner of
the national popular vote rather than the winner of the popular vote in their state
NPV will greatly reduce the power of most states in that the highly populated states will be able to gain the electoral votes and in fact 11 states could decide the Presidential election
California Texas New York Florida Illinois Pennsylvania Ohio Michigan Georgia North Carolina and New Jersey have 57 of the votes cast
in 2008 and together they have 270 electoral votes the amount necessary to win the election Do you want these states to decide who is President
while other states have no say
Is this what the Founding Fathers wanted An election based on demographics and geographics
Why is the current structure of the electoral college so important Our Founding Fathers believed that the state by state disbursed system
maintained the sovereignty of the states and disallowed Federalism The containment of ldquomischiefrdquo or voter fraud of the ACORN type is contained within states instead of being spread nationally The electoral college provides balance and firewalls against voter fraud
Do you believe all states should be purple and not red or blue Then you do NOT want the NPV Supporters of the NPV claim it will favor
Republicans in that there are more underutilized Republican votes than Democratic votes which I doubt since the heavily populated states are predominantly liberal Whether this is true or not does not matter
17
The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
(cont)
We should not favor one side or the other in the United States of America
The initiative has been approved by half the states necessary to pass it The states that have approved it equal 70 electoral votes and only 138 are needed for it to pass It is well on its way to becoming law
NPV circumvents the Constitution by allowing individual states to change the Constitution without an amendment However the compact clause of
the Constitution does not allow any state to ldquoenter into any Agreement or Compact with another Staterdquo Liberal states like California could join with
Illinois New York and another 8 other liberal states forming a super bloc that would give all their electoral votes to the winner forming the bloc that could take the election
Article V specifically states that the Constitution must be amended ldquono State without its Consent shall be deprived of its equal Suffrage in the Senaterdquo The NPV as structured will immediately take effect without an amendment and it will probably be in time for the 2012 election
NPV has bipartisan support and the opposition should be bipartisan as well It is not a partisan issue it is about states rights and the power of each individual guaranteed by the electoral college
NPV will have many unwanted side effects The states that decide the election will probably be the states that receive the federal dollars because
their votes count They will likely be the only states that candidates will visit
Another problematic side effect reared its ugly head in my own Congressional district on Long Island Our congressman Tim Bishop received most
of his funding from New York City and other areas outside Long Island including as far away as California NPV will encourage the influx of money from outside the key 11 states It will be lobbying on steroids
Then there is the nationalization of voter fraud Some states require proof of citizenship photo IDrsquos no IDrsquos but NPV will eliminate that choice and the containment of fraud that states provide
I personally experienced absentee voter fraud For example one woman voted from Canada and used the address of a local middle school The courts
in NY let these votes stand Even the dead people we found were counted because you only have a few days to prove they are dead and courts want a
death certificate which is hard to get on hundreds of people in a matter of days So in NY dead people vote I happen to know of a number of illegal
aliens who voted as well
In Kansas the Democratic primary of Rizzo vs Royster shows the seriousness of voter fraud A group in support of Rizzo brought in 50 Somali nationals to vote Rizzo won by one vote
ACORN often mobilizes aliens to vote
In Mississippi 23 counties had more people registered to vote than were alive
Examples are endless though some would have us believe fraud is not a widespread problem
There is the costly and lengthy litigation which will ensue if NPV passes Examples are -
What happens constitutionally if a state in the NPV doesnrsquot like the candidate they are forced to give their electoral votes to and pulls out of the
compact though they are not free to do so
NPV does not meet equal protection under the 14th amendment for the states who do not sign on to the NPV
The compact clause Article I suggests it needs congressional approval
Article II delegates power to the states which the NPV overrides
Administratively a non-qualified person not even on the ballot could win it will force states with solid voting requirements to go with those who
allow rampant fraud if they have higher population density the individuality of states that includes early voter registration felons voting voting by mail et cetera will dissolve into the requirements of the heavily populated states Close elections will cause inevitable and lengthy delays
There is even a question of whether some states will be able to vote under the compact
18
The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
(cont)
Litigation will take a long time and could end up leaving the incumbent President in place for months or years
NPV will -
Federalize the vote
Destroy state sovereignty in the Presidential election
Circumvent the Constitution
Disenfranchise voters by giving 11 states the power to decide the election
It will ignite endless litigation
Reduce voting to the lowest common denominator
Give a handful of states supremacy
NPV is a ldquoone size fits allrdquo and it forces many states to abandon the voting procedures and policies that make them unique It focuses on the end
results and sacrifices process

NOTE One of our very own Republican Missouri Legislators introduced a bill in the last legislative session in favor of the National Popular Vote and to eliminate the Electoral College Dwight Scharnhorst (93rd District before re-districting) explained that he did not know that what this bill was about and that is why he introduced it Unfortunately MrScharnhorst is now running unopposed in the newly re-districted 88th District

GETTING INVOLVED IN YOUR PRECINCT
WHY Because we believe ldquoall politics is localrdquo
Become involved at the local level to restore conservative values and principles that will then ldquotrickle UPrdquo to all levels of government
MOPP is not the first to utilize this strategy ndash Phyllis Schlafly implemented the ldquoprecinct strategyrdquo to defeat the ERA 30+ years ago
We believe that Missouri needed to join the ranks of other states with similar efforts including Texas Florida Pennsylvania Nevada and
Utah
We want to encourage Missourians across the State to work in their own communities and counties to make a differencehellip
WHAT MOPPrsquos 4 pronged strategy
1 Key element (hence the name Missouri Precinct Project) Identify the 40-50 of the unfilled precincttownship
committee positions in their county that go unfilled (many of our members have filed to fill these positions across the
state ndash ie St Louis County stat 35 new)
2 Get out the Conservative vote ndash
a MOPP encourages its members to utilize our database (we are in the final stage of determining which program we
will be using) to canvass their neighborhood to identify and register conservative voters educate voters on issues
and candidates and get them to the polls on election day
b MOPP also partners with ldquoChampion The Votehellipencouraging our volunteers to become Champions in the
Champion the Vote program to register unregistered Christian voters (in Missouri in 2008 there was only a
4000 difference between the 2 presidential candidateshellipthatrsquos a pretty close margin but yet there are
approximately 150000 unregistered Christians in the State)
Go here to become a ldquoChampionrdquo httpchampionthevotecomheadquartersmissouri
3 Encourage becoming a poll worker to help prevent voter fraud
4 Build and maintain a database in order to form a more effective coalition united voice for Conservatives across the State

IN SUMMARY If we are ever to get control of our government and change the type of people we get into office and the control that big-
money currently brings we must get directly and actively involved at the grassroots level in the two-party system
It is not going to be easy and it is not going to change overnight But without this approach we are simply reshuffling the
chairs on the deck of the Titanic Do we just want the furniture to look better before we crash into the iceberg or do we
want to change the shiprsquos course to prevent it from sinking
Mission Statement
Restore Constitutional principles and conservative values by engaging conservatives in grassroots politics

Obamas Second Term Transformation Plans By Steve McCann
The 2012 election has often been described as the most pivotal since 1860 This statement is not hyperbole If Barack Obama is re-elected the
United States will never be the same nor will it be able to re-capture its once lofty status as the most dominant nation in the history of mankind The overwhelming majority of Americans do not understand that Obamas first term was dedicated to putting in place executive power to enable him
and the administration to fulfill the campaign promise of transforming America in his second term regardless of which political party controls
Congress That is why his re-election team is virtually ignoring the plight of incumbent or prospective Democratic Party office holders
The most significant accomplishment of Obamas first term is to make Congress irrelevant Under the myopic and blindly loyal leadership of Harry
Reid and Nancy Pelosi the Democrats have succeeded in creating an imperial and in a second term a potential dictatorial presidency
During the first two years of the Obama administration when the Democrats overwhelming controlled both Houses of Congress and the media was in
an Obama worshipping stupor a myriad of laws were passed and actions taken which transferred virtually unlimited power to the executive branch The birth of multi-thousand page laws was not an aberration This tactic was adopted so the bureaucracy controlled by Obama appointees would
have sole discretion in interpreting vaguely written laws and enforcing thousands of pages of regulations they and not Congress would subsequently
write
For example in the 2700 pages of ObamaCare there are more than 2500 references to the Secretary of Health and Human Services There are more
than 700 instances when he or she is instructed that they shall do something and more than 200 times when they may take at their sole discretion
some form of regulatory action On 139 occasions the law mentions that the Secretary determines In essence one person appointed by and
reporting to the president will be in charge of the health care of 310 million Americans once ObamaCare is fully operational in 2014
The same is true in the 2319 pages of the Dodd-Frank Financial Reform Act which confers nearly unlimited power on various agencies to control by
fiat the nations financial banking and investment sectors The bill also creates new agencies such as the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau not
subject to any oversight by Congress This overall process was repeated numerous times with other legislation all with the intent of granting
unfettered power to the executive branch controlled Barack Obama and his radical associates
Additionally the Obama administration has through its unilaterally determined rule making and regulatory powers created laws out of whole cloth
The Environmental Protection Agency on a near daily basis issues new regulations clearly out of their purview in order to modify and change
environmental laws previously passed and to impose a radical green agenda never approved by Congress The same is true of the Energy and Interior
Departments among many others
None of these extra-constitutional actions have been challenged by Congress The left in America knows this usurpation of power is nearly
impossible to reverse unless stopped in its early stages
It is clearly the mindset of this administration and its appointees that Congress is merely a nuisance and can be ignored after they were able to take
full advantage of the useful idiots in the Democrat controlled House and Senate in 2009-2010 and the Democrat Senate in the current Congress Additionally Barack Obama knows after his re-election a Republican controlled House and Senate will not be able to enact any legislation to roll
back the power previously granted to the Executive Branch or usurped by them His veto will not be overridden as there will always be at least 145
Democratic members of the House or 34 in the Senate in agreement with or intimidated by an administration more than willing to use Chicago style
political tactics
The stalemate between the Executive and Legislative Branches will inure to the benefit of Barack Obama and his fellow leftists The most significant power Congress has is the control of the purse-strings as all spending must be approved by them However once re-elected
Barack Obama as confirmed by his willingness to do or say anything and his unscrupulous re-election tactics would not only threaten government
shutdowns but would deliberately withhold payments to those dependent on government support as a means of intimidating and forcing a Republican
controlled Congress to surrender to his demands thus neutering their ability to control the administration through spending constraints Further this administration has shown contempt for the courts by ignoring various court orders eg the Gulf of Mexico oil drilling moratorium as
well as stonewalling subpoenas and requests issued by Congress The Eric Holder Justice Department has become the epitome of corruption as part
of the most dishonest and deceitful administration in American history In a second term the arrogance of Barack Obama and his minions will
become more blatant as he will not have to be concerned with re-election
Who will be there to enforce the rule of law a Supreme Court ruling or the Constitution No one Barack Obama and his fellow-travelers will be
unchallenged as they run roughshod over the American people
Many Republicans and conservatives dissatisfied with the prospect of Mitt Romney as the nominee for president are instead focused on re-taking the
House and Senate That goal while worthy and necessary is meaningless unless Barack Obama is defeated The nation is not dealing with a person
of character and integrity but someone of single-minded purpose and overwhelming narcissism Judging by his actions words and deeds during his
first term he does not intend to work with Congress either Republican or Democrat in his second term but rather to force his radical agenda on the
American people through the power he has usurped or been granted
The governmental structure of the United States was set up by the founders in the hope that over the years only those people of high moral character
and integrity would assume the reins of power However knowing that was not always possible they dispersed power over three distinct and
independent branches as a check on each other
14
Obamas Second Term Transformation Plans (cont)
What they could not imagine is the surrender and abdication of its constitutional duty by the preeminent governmental branch the Congress to a
chief executive devoid of any character or integrity coupled with a judiciary essentially powerless to enforce the law when the chief executive ignores
them
Conservatives Libertarians the Republican Party and Mitt Romney must come to grips with this moment in time and their historical role in denying
Barack Obama and his minions their ultimate goal All resources must be directed at that end-game and not merely controlling Congress and the
various committee chairmanships

Winning the Youth Vote
Posted by Mindy Reifer 12pc on May 03 2012 middot Flag
After clearly indicating their strategic ploys to secure the women vote this election cycle Democrats are now sharpening their rhetoric aimed at reclaiming the youth vote President Obama directed his April campaigning towards college students focusing on college-loan rates and other university-related political issues
Since the 2008 election results were first analyzed the prominence of the youth vote has weighed heavily on both Democratic and Republican candidatesrsquo campaign decisions The popular myth circulating is that for Obamarsquos 2008 win the youth vote turned out in remarkably unprecedented numbers And all Obama has to do is continue this pattern to secure his
electoral victory
But that might be easier said than done this time around
First Obama did not in fact grow the youth vote very much and certainly not in unprecedented numbers What Obama actually did accomplish in 2008 was to turn the youth vote largely
away from Republicans securing a majority of votes from voters aged 18-29 The actual growth of the youth vote though was just 1
Posting on the Washington Postrsquos website on April 24 Chris Cillizza and Aaron Blakeat demonstrate that while political organizations claimed that Obamarsquos election was in part due to a more than 22 million youth voter turnout increase ldquoyoung voters comprised 18 percent of the electorate in 2008 a one-point improvement from their share of the electorate in 2004 2000
and 1996 but nowhere near the heights they reached in the 1980srdquo
Misrepresentation of Obamarsquos success at the polls led to many dishonest facts being promulgated to bolster the supposed turnout-increasing abilities of our president Even before the
finally tally in 2008 Heather Smith of Rock the Vote (as quoted by Melissa Dahl on MSNBCcom) said ldquoWe expected record turnout and that is what wersquore seeing right nowrdquo
Hindsight proved that it was not at all a record turnout certainly not when the 1980 and 1984 Reagan Revolution is considered but it was a record margin in favor of the Democratic nominee And this youth vote clobbering likely tilted the election in Obamarsquos favor Dahl says that ldquoyoung voters preferred Obama over John McCain by 68 percent to 30 percent mdash the
highest share of the youth vote obtained by any candidate since exit polls began reporting results by age in 1976 according to CIRCLE a non-partisan organizationrdquo
It is not only Obama and Democrats who are going after the youth vote At the same time that Obama was appealing to his prime target Romney was giving stump speeches about
student loans and college costs (In pure campaign-mode Obama demanded that Congress keep student loan rates low something that Republicans in Congress have also supported)
It remains to be seen if Obama will once again secure the youth vote or by what margin
This time around Republicans have a stronger platform to run on Obamarsquos record Statistics released by the Republican Study Committee on April 30 show that more than half of recent
college graduates are unemployed or underemployed In fact 85 of college graduates will be moving back home with their parents hardly the ideal goal of a college grad
Many of the youngest of 2008rsquos voters have now graduated college and are finding themselves enveloped in student debt and facing the harsh realities of the Obama recession And of
course the older end of the youth vote have now matured somewhat witnessing first-hand the destruction Obamarsquos policies have wrought on our economy and foreign image
And it is up to this very demographic to perhaps effect the biggest change in the election outcome this November But unfortunately youth voters are still favoring Obama over Romney by a strong margin strong enough to win him reelection An April 2012 Washington Post-ABC survey showed Obama leading Romney by 21 points among 18-29-year olds Romney is
correct in assuming he needs to appeal to the youth vote not just to grow the turnout but more importantly to urge deflections over to the Republicans side in order to secure the election
Romney needs to focus on the economy not just student loan rates He needs to remind young voters that they will need jobs to pay back their loans no matter how low interest rates remain And moving back home with Mom and Dad is no way to spend onersquos first year as a college graduate America needs to once again be a nation of unique unprecedented
economy opportunity and a 2012 ldquoReaganrdquo revolution is necessary to put the US back on track to prosperity

The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
December 9 2011
By Sara Noble
ldquoThe elective franchise if guarded as the ark of our safety will peaceably dissipate all combinations to subvert a Constitution dictated by the
wisdom and resting on the will of the peoplerdquo ~ Thomas Jefferson
While Americans are focused on the election the Progressive wing of the Democratic Party funded by two eccentric businessmen and a George Soros son are stealthily orchestrating the decimation of the voting process and states rights through the National Popular Vote Compact (NPV)
The NPV is a popular sound bite that will do the opposite of what it is portrayed to do ndash make each Americanrsquos vote count It does not do that
because it keeps the electoral college but misuses it What it actually does is create a ldquoforced mergerrdquo between heavily populated states and less populated states
Currently moving at a rapid pace the NPV is a state-by-state initiative that will force states to allocate their electoral votes to the winner of
the national popular vote rather than the winner of the popular vote in their state
NPV will greatly reduce the power of most states in that the highly populated states will be able to gain the electoral votes and in fact 11 states could decide the Presidential election
California Texas New York Florida Illinois Pennsylvania Ohio Michigan Georgia North Carolina and New Jersey have 57 of the votes cast
in 2008 and together they have 270 electoral votes the amount necessary to win the election Do you want these states to decide who is President
while other states have no say
Is this what the Founding Fathers wanted An election based on demographics and geographics
Why is the current structure of the electoral college so important Our Founding Fathers believed that the state by state disbursed system
maintained the sovereignty of the states and disallowed Federalism The containment of ldquomischiefrdquo or voter fraud of the ACORN type is contained within states instead of being spread nationally The electoral college provides balance and firewalls against voter fraud
Do you believe all states should be purple and not red or blue Then you do NOT want the NPV Supporters of the NPV claim it will favor
Republicans in that there are more underutilized Republican votes than Democratic votes which I doubt since the heavily populated states are predominantly liberal Whether this is true or not does not matter
17
The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
(cont)
We should not favor one side or the other in the United States of America
The initiative has been approved by half the states necessary to pass it The states that have approved it equal 70 electoral votes and only 138 are needed for it to pass It is well on its way to becoming law
NPV circumvents the Constitution by allowing individual states to change the Constitution without an amendment However the compact clause of
the Constitution does not allow any state to ldquoenter into any Agreement or Compact with another Staterdquo Liberal states like California could join with
Illinois New York and another 8 other liberal states forming a super bloc that would give all their electoral votes to the winner forming the bloc that could take the election
Article V specifically states that the Constitution must be amended ldquono State without its Consent shall be deprived of its equal Suffrage in the Senaterdquo The NPV as structured will immediately take effect without an amendment and it will probably be in time for the 2012 election
NPV has bipartisan support and the opposition should be bipartisan as well It is not a partisan issue it is about states rights and the power of each individual guaranteed by the electoral college
NPV will have many unwanted side effects The states that decide the election will probably be the states that receive the federal dollars because
their votes count They will likely be the only states that candidates will visit
Another problematic side effect reared its ugly head in my own Congressional district on Long Island Our congressman Tim Bishop received most
of his funding from New York City and other areas outside Long Island including as far away as California NPV will encourage the influx of money from outside the key 11 states It will be lobbying on steroids
Then there is the nationalization of voter fraud Some states require proof of citizenship photo IDrsquos no IDrsquos but NPV will eliminate that choice and the containment of fraud that states provide
I personally experienced absentee voter fraud For example one woman voted from Canada and used the address of a local middle school The courts
in NY let these votes stand Even the dead people we found were counted because you only have a few days to prove they are dead and courts want a
death certificate which is hard to get on hundreds of people in a matter of days So in NY dead people vote I happen to know of a number of illegal
aliens who voted as well
In Kansas the Democratic primary of Rizzo vs Royster shows the seriousness of voter fraud A group in support of Rizzo brought in 50 Somali nationals to vote Rizzo won by one vote
ACORN often mobilizes aliens to vote
In Mississippi 23 counties had more people registered to vote than were alive
Examples are endless though some would have us believe fraud is not a widespread problem
There is the costly and lengthy litigation which will ensue if NPV passes Examples are -
What happens constitutionally if a state in the NPV doesnrsquot like the candidate they are forced to give their electoral votes to and pulls out of the
compact though they are not free to do so
NPV does not meet equal protection under the 14th amendment for the states who do not sign on to the NPV
The compact clause Article I suggests it needs congressional approval
Article II delegates power to the states which the NPV overrides
Administratively a non-qualified person not even on the ballot could win it will force states with solid voting requirements to go with those who
allow rampant fraud if they have higher population density the individuality of states that includes early voter registration felons voting voting by mail et cetera will dissolve into the requirements of the heavily populated states Close elections will cause inevitable and lengthy delays
There is even a question of whether some states will be able to vote under the compact
18
The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
(cont)
Litigation will take a long time and could end up leaving the incumbent President in place for months or years
NPV will -
Federalize the vote
Destroy state sovereignty in the Presidential election
Circumvent the Constitution
Disenfranchise voters by giving 11 states the power to decide the election
It will ignite endless litigation
Reduce voting to the lowest common denominator
Give a handful of states supremacy
NPV is a ldquoone size fits allrdquo and it forces many states to abandon the voting procedures and policies that make them unique It focuses on the end
results and sacrifices process

NOTE One of our very own Republican Missouri Legislators introduced a bill in the last legislative session in favor of the National Popular Vote and to eliminate the Electoral College Dwight Scharnhorst (93rd District before re-districting) explained that he did not know that what this bill was about and that is why he introduced it Unfortunately MrScharnhorst is now running unopposed in the newly re-districted 88th District

GETTING INVOLVED IN YOUR PRECINCT
WHY Because we believe ldquoall politics is localrdquo
Become involved at the local level to restore conservative values and principles that will then ldquotrickle UPrdquo to all levels of government
MOPP is not the first to utilize this strategy ndash Phyllis Schlafly implemented the ldquoprecinct strategyrdquo to defeat the ERA 30+ years ago
We believe that Missouri needed to join the ranks of other states with similar efforts including Texas Florida Pennsylvania Nevada and
Utah
We want to encourage Missourians across the State to work in their own communities and counties to make a differencehellip
WHAT MOPPrsquos 4 pronged strategy
1 Key element (hence the name Missouri Precinct Project) Identify the 40-50 of the unfilled precincttownship
committee positions in their county that go unfilled (many of our members have filed to fill these positions across the
state ndash ie St Louis County stat 35 new)
2 Get out the Conservative vote ndash
a MOPP encourages its members to utilize our database (we are in the final stage of determining which program we
will be using) to canvass their neighborhood to identify and register conservative voters educate voters on issues
and candidates and get them to the polls on election day
b MOPP also partners with ldquoChampion The Votehellipencouraging our volunteers to become Champions in the
Champion the Vote program to register unregistered Christian voters (in Missouri in 2008 there was only a
4000 difference between the 2 presidential candidateshellipthatrsquos a pretty close margin but yet there are
approximately 150000 unregistered Christians in the State)
Go here to become a ldquoChampionrdquo httpchampionthevotecomheadquartersmissouri
3 Encourage becoming a poll worker to help prevent voter fraud
4 Build and maintain a database in order to form a more effective coalition united voice for Conservatives across the State

IN SUMMARY If we are ever to get control of our government and change the type of people we get into office and the control that big-
money currently brings we must get directly and actively involved at the grassroots level in the two-party system
It is not going to be easy and it is not going to change overnight But without this approach we are simply reshuffling the
chairs on the deck of the Titanic Do we just want the furniture to look better before we crash into the iceberg or do we
want to change the shiprsquos course to prevent it from sinking
Mission Statement
Restore Constitutional principles and conservative values by engaging conservatives in grassroots politics

Obamas Second Term Transformation Plans (cont)
What they could not imagine is the surrender and abdication of its constitutional duty by the preeminent governmental branch the Congress to a
chief executive devoid of any character or integrity coupled with a judiciary essentially powerless to enforce the law when the chief executive ignores
them
Conservatives Libertarians the Republican Party and Mitt Romney must come to grips with this moment in time and their historical role in denying
Barack Obama and his minions their ultimate goal All resources must be directed at that end-game and not merely controlling Congress and the
various committee chairmanships

Winning the Youth Vote
Posted by Mindy Reifer 12pc on May 03 2012 middot Flag
After clearly indicating their strategic ploys to secure the women vote this election cycle Democrats are now sharpening their rhetoric aimed at reclaiming the youth vote President Obama directed his April campaigning towards college students focusing on college-loan rates and other university-related political issues
Since the 2008 election results were first analyzed the prominence of the youth vote has weighed heavily on both Democratic and Republican candidatesrsquo campaign decisions The popular myth circulating is that for Obamarsquos 2008 win the youth vote turned out in remarkably unprecedented numbers And all Obama has to do is continue this pattern to secure his
electoral victory
But that might be easier said than done this time around
First Obama did not in fact grow the youth vote very much and certainly not in unprecedented numbers What Obama actually did accomplish in 2008 was to turn the youth vote largely
away from Republicans securing a majority of votes from voters aged 18-29 The actual growth of the youth vote though was just 1
Posting on the Washington Postrsquos website on April 24 Chris Cillizza and Aaron Blakeat demonstrate that while political organizations claimed that Obamarsquos election was in part due to a more than 22 million youth voter turnout increase ldquoyoung voters comprised 18 percent of the electorate in 2008 a one-point improvement from their share of the electorate in 2004 2000
and 1996 but nowhere near the heights they reached in the 1980srdquo
Misrepresentation of Obamarsquos success at the polls led to many dishonest facts being promulgated to bolster the supposed turnout-increasing abilities of our president Even before the
finally tally in 2008 Heather Smith of Rock the Vote (as quoted by Melissa Dahl on MSNBCcom) said ldquoWe expected record turnout and that is what wersquore seeing right nowrdquo
Hindsight proved that it was not at all a record turnout certainly not when the 1980 and 1984 Reagan Revolution is considered but it was a record margin in favor of the Democratic nominee And this youth vote clobbering likely tilted the election in Obamarsquos favor Dahl says that ldquoyoung voters preferred Obama over John McCain by 68 percent to 30 percent mdash the
highest share of the youth vote obtained by any candidate since exit polls began reporting results by age in 1976 according to CIRCLE a non-partisan organizationrdquo
It is not only Obama and Democrats who are going after the youth vote At the same time that Obama was appealing to his prime target Romney was giving stump speeches about
student loans and college costs (In pure campaign-mode Obama demanded that Congress keep student loan rates low something that Republicans in Congress have also supported)
It remains to be seen if Obama will once again secure the youth vote or by what margin
This time around Republicans have a stronger platform to run on Obamarsquos record Statistics released by the Republican Study Committee on April 30 show that more than half of recent
college graduates are unemployed or underemployed In fact 85 of college graduates will be moving back home with their parents hardly the ideal goal of a college grad
Many of the youngest of 2008rsquos voters have now graduated college and are finding themselves enveloped in student debt and facing the harsh realities of the Obama recession And of
course the older end of the youth vote have now matured somewhat witnessing first-hand the destruction Obamarsquos policies have wrought on our economy and foreign image
And it is up to this very demographic to perhaps effect the biggest change in the election outcome this November But unfortunately youth voters are still favoring Obama over Romney by a strong margin strong enough to win him reelection An April 2012 Washington Post-ABC survey showed Obama leading Romney by 21 points among 18-29-year olds Romney is
correct in assuming he needs to appeal to the youth vote not just to grow the turnout but more importantly to urge deflections over to the Republicans side in order to secure the election
Romney needs to focus on the economy not just student loan rates He needs to remind young voters that they will need jobs to pay back their loans no matter how low interest rates remain And moving back home with Mom and Dad is no way to spend onersquos first year as a college graduate America needs to once again be a nation of unique unprecedented
economy opportunity and a 2012 ldquoReaganrdquo revolution is necessary to put the US back on track to prosperity

The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
December 9 2011
By Sara Noble
ldquoThe elective franchise if guarded as the ark of our safety will peaceably dissipate all combinations to subvert a Constitution dictated by the
wisdom and resting on the will of the peoplerdquo ~ Thomas Jefferson
While Americans are focused on the election the Progressive wing of the Democratic Party funded by two eccentric businessmen and a George Soros son are stealthily orchestrating the decimation of the voting process and states rights through the National Popular Vote Compact (NPV)
The NPV is a popular sound bite that will do the opposite of what it is portrayed to do ndash make each Americanrsquos vote count It does not do that
because it keeps the electoral college but misuses it What it actually does is create a ldquoforced mergerrdquo between heavily populated states and less populated states
Currently moving at a rapid pace the NPV is a state-by-state initiative that will force states to allocate their electoral votes to the winner of
the national popular vote rather than the winner of the popular vote in their state
NPV will greatly reduce the power of most states in that the highly populated states will be able to gain the electoral votes and in fact 11 states could decide the Presidential election
California Texas New York Florida Illinois Pennsylvania Ohio Michigan Georgia North Carolina and New Jersey have 57 of the votes cast
in 2008 and together they have 270 electoral votes the amount necessary to win the election Do you want these states to decide who is President
while other states have no say
Is this what the Founding Fathers wanted An election based on demographics and geographics
Why is the current structure of the electoral college so important Our Founding Fathers believed that the state by state disbursed system
maintained the sovereignty of the states and disallowed Federalism The containment of ldquomischiefrdquo or voter fraud of the ACORN type is contained within states instead of being spread nationally The electoral college provides balance and firewalls against voter fraud
Do you believe all states should be purple and not red or blue Then you do NOT want the NPV Supporters of the NPV claim it will favor
Republicans in that there are more underutilized Republican votes than Democratic votes which I doubt since the heavily populated states are predominantly liberal Whether this is true or not does not matter
17
The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
(cont)
We should not favor one side or the other in the United States of America
The initiative has been approved by half the states necessary to pass it The states that have approved it equal 70 electoral votes and only 138 are needed for it to pass It is well on its way to becoming law
NPV circumvents the Constitution by allowing individual states to change the Constitution without an amendment However the compact clause of
the Constitution does not allow any state to ldquoenter into any Agreement or Compact with another Staterdquo Liberal states like California could join with
Illinois New York and another 8 other liberal states forming a super bloc that would give all their electoral votes to the winner forming the bloc that could take the election
Article V specifically states that the Constitution must be amended ldquono State without its Consent shall be deprived of its equal Suffrage in the Senaterdquo The NPV as structured will immediately take effect without an amendment and it will probably be in time for the 2012 election
NPV has bipartisan support and the opposition should be bipartisan as well It is not a partisan issue it is about states rights and the power of each individual guaranteed by the electoral college
NPV will have many unwanted side effects The states that decide the election will probably be the states that receive the federal dollars because
their votes count They will likely be the only states that candidates will visit
Another problematic side effect reared its ugly head in my own Congressional district on Long Island Our congressman Tim Bishop received most
of his funding from New York City and other areas outside Long Island including as far away as California NPV will encourage the influx of money from outside the key 11 states It will be lobbying on steroids
Then there is the nationalization of voter fraud Some states require proof of citizenship photo IDrsquos no IDrsquos but NPV will eliminate that choice and the containment of fraud that states provide
I personally experienced absentee voter fraud For example one woman voted from Canada and used the address of a local middle school The courts
in NY let these votes stand Even the dead people we found were counted because you only have a few days to prove they are dead and courts want a
death certificate which is hard to get on hundreds of people in a matter of days So in NY dead people vote I happen to know of a number of illegal
aliens who voted as well
In Kansas the Democratic primary of Rizzo vs Royster shows the seriousness of voter fraud A group in support of Rizzo brought in 50 Somali nationals to vote Rizzo won by one vote
ACORN often mobilizes aliens to vote
In Mississippi 23 counties had more people registered to vote than were alive
Examples are endless though some would have us believe fraud is not a widespread problem
There is the costly and lengthy litigation which will ensue if NPV passes Examples are -
What happens constitutionally if a state in the NPV doesnrsquot like the candidate they are forced to give their electoral votes to and pulls out of the
compact though they are not free to do so
NPV does not meet equal protection under the 14th amendment for the states who do not sign on to the NPV
The compact clause Article I suggests it needs congressional approval
Article II delegates power to the states which the NPV overrides
Administratively a non-qualified person not even on the ballot could win it will force states with solid voting requirements to go with those who
allow rampant fraud if they have higher population density the individuality of states that includes early voter registration felons voting voting by mail et cetera will dissolve into the requirements of the heavily populated states Close elections will cause inevitable and lengthy delays
There is even a question of whether some states will be able to vote under the compact
18
The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
(cont)
Litigation will take a long time and could end up leaving the incumbent President in place for months or years
NPV will -
Federalize the vote
Destroy state sovereignty in the Presidential election
Circumvent the Constitution
Disenfranchise voters by giving 11 states the power to decide the election
It will ignite endless litigation
Reduce voting to the lowest common denominator
Give a handful of states supremacy
NPV is a ldquoone size fits allrdquo and it forces many states to abandon the voting procedures and policies that make them unique It focuses on the end
results and sacrifices process

NOTE One of our very own Republican Missouri Legislators introduced a bill in the last legislative session in favor of the National Popular Vote and to eliminate the Electoral College Dwight Scharnhorst (93rd District before re-districting) explained that he did not know that what this bill was about and that is why he introduced it Unfortunately MrScharnhorst is now running unopposed in the newly re-districted 88th District

GETTING INVOLVED IN YOUR PRECINCT
WHY Because we believe ldquoall politics is localrdquo
Become involved at the local level to restore conservative values and principles that will then ldquotrickle UPrdquo to all levels of government
MOPP is not the first to utilize this strategy ndash Phyllis Schlafly implemented the ldquoprecinct strategyrdquo to defeat the ERA 30+ years ago
We believe that Missouri needed to join the ranks of other states with similar efforts including Texas Florida Pennsylvania Nevada and
Utah
We want to encourage Missourians across the State to work in their own communities and counties to make a differencehellip
WHAT MOPPrsquos 4 pronged strategy
1 Key element (hence the name Missouri Precinct Project) Identify the 40-50 of the unfilled precincttownship
committee positions in their county that go unfilled (many of our members have filed to fill these positions across the
state ndash ie St Louis County stat 35 new)
2 Get out the Conservative vote ndash
a MOPP encourages its members to utilize our database (we are in the final stage of determining which program we
will be using) to canvass their neighborhood to identify and register conservative voters educate voters on issues
and candidates and get them to the polls on election day
b MOPP also partners with ldquoChampion The Votehellipencouraging our volunteers to become Champions in the
Champion the Vote program to register unregistered Christian voters (in Missouri in 2008 there was only a
4000 difference between the 2 presidential candidateshellipthatrsquos a pretty close margin but yet there are
approximately 150000 unregistered Christians in the State)
Go here to become a ldquoChampionrdquo httpchampionthevotecomheadquartersmissouri
3 Encourage becoming a poll worker to help prevent voter fraud
4 Build and maintain a database in order to form a more effective coalition united voice for Conservatives across the State
HOW EducateMotivatendash

IN SUMMARY If we are ever to get control of our government and change the type of people we get into office and the control that big-
money currently brings we must get directly and actively involved at the grassroots level in the two-party system
It is not going to be easy and it is not going to change overnight But without this approach we are simply reshuffling the
chairs on the deck of the Titanic Do we just want the furniture to look better before we crash into the iceberg or do we
want to change the shiprsquos course to prevent it from sinking
Mission Statement
Restore Constitutional principles and conservative values by engaging conservatives in grassroots politics

Winning the Youth Vote
Posted by Mindy Reifer 12pc on May 03 2012 middot Flag
After clearly indicating their strategic ploys to secure the women vote this election cycle Democrats are now sharpening their rhetoric aimed at reclaiming the youth vote President Obama directed his April campaigning towards college students focusing on college-loan rates and other university-related political issues
Since the 2008 election results were first analyzed the prominence of the youth vote has weighed heavily on both Democratic and Republican candidatesrsquo campaign decisions The popular myth circulating is that for Obamarsquos 2008 win the youth vote turned out in remarkably unprecedented numbers And all Obama has to do is continue this pattern to secure his
electoral victory
But that might be easier said than done this time around
First Obama did not in fact grow the youth vote very much and certainly not in unprecedented numbers What Obama actually did accomplish in 2008 was to turn the youth vote largely
away from Republicans securing a majority of votes from voters aged 18-29 The actual growth of the youth vote though was just 1
Posting on the Washington Postrsquos website on April 24 Chris Cillizza and Aaron Blakeat demonstrate that while political organizations claimed that Obamarsquos election was in part due to a more than 22 million youth voter turnout increase ldquoyoung voters comprised 18 percent of the electorate in 2008 a one-point improvement from their share of the electorate in 2004 2000
and 1996 but nowhere near the heights they reached in the 1980srdquo
Misrepresentation of Obamarsquos success at the polls led to many dishonest facts being promulgated to bolster the supposed turnout-increasing abilities of our president Even before the
finally tally in 2008 Heather Smith of Rock the Vote (as quoted by Melissa Dahl on MSNBCcom) said ldquoWe expected record turnout and that is what wersquore seeing right nowrdquo
Hindsight proved that it was not at all a record turnout certainly not when the 1980 and 1984 Reagan Revolution is considered but it was a record margin in favor of the Democratic nominee And this youth vote clobbering likely tilted the election in Obamarsquos favor Dahl says that ldquoyoung voters preferred Obama over John McCain by 68 percent to 30 percent mdash the
highest share of the youth vote obtained by any candidate since exit polls began reporting results by age in 1976 according to CIRCLE a non-partisan organizationrdquo
It is not only Obama and Democrats who are going after the youth vote At the same time that Obama was appealing to his prime target Romney was giving stump speeches about
student loans and college costs (In pure campaign-mode Obama demanded that Congress keep student loan rates low something that Republicans in Congress have also supported)
It remains to be seen if Obama will once again secure the youth vote or by what margin
This time around Republicans have a stronger platform to run on Obamarsquos record Statistics released by the Republican Study Committee on April 30 show that more than half of recent
college graduates are unemployed or underemployed In fact 85 of college graduates will be moving back home with their parents hardly the ideal goal of a college grad
Many of the youngest of 2008rsquos voters have now graduated college and are finding themselves enveloped in student debt and facing the harsh realities of the Obama recession And of
course the older end of the youth vote have now matured somewhat witnessing first-hand the destruction Obamarsquos policies have wrought on our economy and foreign image
And it is up to this very demographic to perhaps effect the biggest change in the election outcome this November But unfortunately youth voters are still favoring Obama over Romney by a strong margin strong enough to win him reelection An April 2012 Washington Post-ABC survey showed Obama leading Romney by 21 points among 18-29-year olds Romney is
correct in assuming he needs to appeal to the youth vote not just to grow the turnout but more importantly to urge deflections over to the Republicans side in order to secure the election
Romney needs to focus on the economy not just student loan rates He needs to remind young voters that they will need jobs to pay back their loans no matter how low interest rates remain And moving back home with Mom and Dad is no way to spend onersquos first year as a college graduate America needs to once again be a nation of unique unprecedented
economy opportunity and a 2012 ldquoReaganrdquo revolution is necessary to put the US back on track to prosperity

The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
December 9 2011
By Sara Noble
ldquoThe elective franchise if guarded as the ark of our safety will peaceably dissipate all combinations to subvert a Constitution dictated by the
wisdom and resting on the will of the peoplerdquo ~ Thomas Jefferson
While Americans are focused on the election the Progressive wing of the Democratic Party funded by two eccentric businessmen and a George Soros son are stealthily orchestrating the decimation of the voting process and states rights through the National Popular Vote Compact (NPV)
The NPV is a popular sound bite that will do the opposite of what it is portrayed to do ndash make each Americanrsquos vote count It does not do that
because it keeps the electoral college but misuses it What it actually does is create a ldquoforced mergerrdquo between heavily populated states and less populated states
Currently moving at a rapid pace the NPV is a state-by-state initiative that will force states to allocate their electoral votes to the winner of
the national popular vote rather than the winner of the popular vote in their state
NPV will greatly reduce the power of most states in that the highly populated states will be able to gain the electoral votes and in fact 11 states could decide the Presidential election
California Texas New York Florida Illinois Pennsylvania Ohio Michigan Georgia North Carolina and New Jersey have 57 of the votes cast
in 2008 and together they have 270 electoral votes the amount necessary to win the election Do you want these states to decide who is President
while other states have no say
Is this what the Founding Fathers wanted An election based on demographics and geographics
Why is the current structure of the electoral college so important Our Founding Fathers believed that the state by state disbursed system
maintained the sovereignty of the states and disallowed Federalism The containment of ldquomischiefrdquo or voter fraud of the ACORN type is contained within states instead of being spread nationally The electoral college provides balance and firewalls against voter fraud
Do you believe all states should be purple and not red or blue Then you do NOT want the NPV Supporters of the NPV claim it will favor
Republicans in that there are more underutilized Republican votes than Democratic votes which I doubt since the heavily populated states are predominantly liberal Whether this is true or not does not matter
17
The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
(cont)
We should not favor one side or the other in the United States of America
The initiative has been approved by half the states necessary to pass it The states that have approved it equal 70 electoral votes and only 138 are needed for it to pass It is well on its way to becoming law
NPV circumvents the Constitution by allowing individual states to change the Constitution without an amendment However the compact clause of
the Constitution does not allow any state to ldquoenter into any Agreement or Compact with another Staterdquo Liberal states like California could join with
Illinois New York and another 8 other liberal states forming a super bloc that would give all their electoral votes to the winner forming the bloc that could take the election
Article V specifically states that the Constitution must be amended ldquono State without its Consent shall be deprived of its equal Suffrage in the Senaterdquo The NPV as structured will immediately take effect without an amendment and it will probably be in time for the 2012 election
NPV has bipartisan support and the opposition should be bipartisan as well It is not a partisan issue it is about states rights and the power of each individual guaranteed by the electoral college
NPV will have many unwanted side effects The states that decide the election will probably be the states that receive the federal dollars because
their votes count They will likely be the only states that candidates will visit
Another problematic side effect reared its ugly head in my own Congressional district on Long Island Our congressman Tim Bishop received most
of his funding from New York City and other areas outside Long Island including as far away as California NPV will encourage the influx of money from outside the key 11 states It will be lobbying on steroids
Then there is the nationalization of voter fraud Some states require proof of citizenship photo IDrsquos no IDrsquos but NPV will eliminate that choice and the containment of fraud that states provide
I personally experienced absentee voter fraud For example one woman voted from Canada and used the address of a local middle school The courts
in NY let these votes stand Even the dead people we found were counted because you only have a few days to prove they are dead and courts want a
death certificate which is hard to get on hundreds of people in a matter of days So in NY dead people vote I happen to know of a number of illegal
aliens who voted as well
In Kansas the Democratic primary of Rizzo vs Royster shows the seriousness of voter fraud A group in support of Rizzo brought in 50 Somali nationals to vote Rizzo won by one vote
ACORN often mobilizes aliens to vote
In Mississippi 23 counties had more people registered to vote than were alive
Examples are endless though some would have us believe fraud is not a widespread problem
There is the costly and lengthy litigation which will ensue if NPV passes Examples are -
What happens constitutionally if a state in the NPV doesnrsquot like the candidate they are forced to give their electoral votes to and pulls out of the
compact though they are not free to do so
NPV does not meet equal protection under the 14th amendment for the states who do not sign on to the NPV
The compact clause Article I suggests it needs congressional approval
Article II delegates power to the states which the NPV overrides
Administratively a non-qualified person not even on the ballot could win it will force states with solid voting requirements to go with those who
allow rampant fraud if they have higher population density the individuality of states that includes early voter registration felons voting voting by mail et cetera will dissolve into the requirements of the heavily populated states Close elections will cause inevitable and lengthy delays
There is even a question of whether some states will be able to vote under the compact
18
The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
(cont)
Litigation will take a long time and could end up leaving the incumbent President in place for months or years
NPV will -
Federalize the vote
Destroy state sovereignty in the Presidential election
Circumvent the Constitution
Disenfranchise voters by giving 11 states the power to decide the election
It will ignite endless litigation
Reduce voting to the lowest common denominator
Give a handful of states supremacy
NPV is a ldquoone size fits allrdquo and it forces many states to abandon the voting procedures and policies that make them unique It focuses on the end
results and sacrifices process

NOTE One of our very own Republican Missouri Legislators introduced a bill in the last legislative session in favor of the National Popular Vote and to eliminate the Electoral College Dwight Scharnhorst (93rd District before re-districting) explained that he did not know that what this bill was about and that is why he introduced it Unfortunately MrScharnhorst is now running unopposed in the newly re-districted 88th District

GETTING INVOLVED IN YOUR PRECINCT
WHY Because we believe ldquoall politics is localrdquo
Become involved at the local level to restore conservative values and principles that will then ldquotrickle UPrdquo to all levels of government
MOPP is not the first to utilize this strategy ndash Phyllis Schlafly implemented the ldquoprecinct strategyrdquo to defeat the ERA 30+ years ago
We believe that Missouri needed to join the ranks of other states with similar efforts including Texas Florida Pennsylvania Nevada and
Utah
We want to encourage Missourians across the State to work in their own communities and counties to make a differencehellip
WHAT MOPPrsquos 4 pronged strategy
1 Key element (hence the name Missouri Precinct Project) Identify the 40-50 of the unfilled precincttownship
committee positions in their county that go unfilled (many of our members have filed to fill these positions across the
state ndash ie St Louis County stat 35 new)
2 Get out the Conservative vote ndash
a MOPP encourages its members to utilize our database (we are in the final stage of determining which program we
will be using) to canvass their neighborhood to identify and register conservative voters educate voters on issues
and candidates and get them to the polls on election day
b MOPP also partners with ldquoChampion The Votehellipencouraging our volunteers to become Champions in the
Champion the Vote program to register unregistered Christian voters (in Missouri in 2008 there was only a
4000 difference between the 2 presidential candidateshellipthatrsquos a pretty close margin but yet there are
approximately 150000 unregistered Christians in the State)
Go here to become a ldquoChampionrdquo httpchampionthevotecomheadquartersmissouri
3 Encourage becoming a poll worker to help prevent voter fraud
4 Build and maintain a database in order to form a more effective coalition united voice for Conservatives across the State
HOW EducateMotivatendash

IN SUMMARY If we are ever to get control of our government and change the type of people we get into office and the control that big-
money currently brings we must get directly and actively involved at the grassroots level in the two-party system
It is not going to be easy and it is not going to change overnight But without this approach we are simply reshuffling the
chairs on the deck of the Titanic Do we just want the furniture to look better before we crash into the iceberg or do we
want to change the shiprsquos course to prevent it from sinking
Mission Statement
Restore Constitutional principles and conservative values by engaging conservatives in grassroots politics

The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
December 9 2011
By Sara Noble
ldquoThe elective franchise if guarded as the ark of our safety will peaceably dissipate all combinations to subvert a Constitution dictated by the
wisdom and resting on the will of the peoplerdquo ~ Thomas Jefferson
While Americans are focused on the election the Progressive wing of the Democratic Party funded by two eccentric businessmen and a George Soros son are stealthily orchestrating the decimation of the voting process and states rights through the National Popular Vote Compact (NPV)
The NPV is a popular sound bite that will do the opposite of what it is portrayed to do ndash make each Americanrsquos vote count It does not do that
because it keeps the electoral college but misuses it What it actually does is create a ldquoforced mergerrdquo between heavily populated states and less populated states
Currently moving at a rapid pace the NPV is a state-by-state initiative that will force states to allocate their electoral votes to the winner of
the national popular vote rather than the winner of the popular vote in their state
NPV will greatly reduce the power of most states in that the highly populated states will be able to gain the electoral votes and in fact 11 states could decide the Presidential election
California Texas New York Florida Illinois Pennsylvania Ohio Michigan Georgia North Carolina and New Jersey have 57 of the votes cast
in 2008 and together they have 270 electoral votes the amount necessary to win the election Do you want these states to decide who is President
while other states have no say
Is this what the Founding Fathers wanted An election based on demographics and geographics
Why is the current structure of the electoral college so important Our Founding Fathers believed that the state by state disbursed system
maintained the sovereignty of the states and disallowed Federalism The containment of ldquomischiefrdquo or voter fraud of the ACORN type is contained within states instead of being spread nationally The electoral college provides balance and firewalls against voter fraud
Do you believe all states should be purple and not red or blue Then you do NOT want the NPV Supporters of the NPV claim it will favor
Republicans in that there are more underutilized Republican votes than Democratic votes which I doubt since the heavily populated states are predominantly liberal Whether this is true or not does not matter
17
The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
(cont)
We should not favor one side or the other in the United States of America
The initiative has been approved by half the states necessary to pass it The states that have approved it equal 70 electoral votes and only 138 are needed for it to pass It is well on its way to becoming law
NPV circumvents the Constitution by allowing individual states to change the Constitution without an amendment However the compact clause of
the Constitution does not allow any state to ldquoenter into any Agreement or Compact with another Staterdquo Liberal states like California could join with
Illinois New York and another 8 other liberal states forming a super bloc that would give all their electoral votes to the winner forming the bloc that could take the election
Article V specifically states that the Constitution must be amended ldquono State without its Consent shall be deprived of its equal Suffrage in the Senaterdquo The NPV as structured will immediately take effect without an amendment and it will probably be in time for the 2012 election
NPV has bipartisan support and the opposition should be bipartisan as well It is not a partisan issue it is about states rights and the power of each individual guaranteed by the electoral college
NPV will have many unwanted side effects The states that decide the election will probably be the states that receive the federal dollars because
their votes count They will likely be the only states that candidates will visit
Another problematic side effect reared its ugly head in my own Congressional district on Long Island Our congressman Tim Bishop received most
of his funding from New York City and other areas outside Long Island including as far away as California NPV will encourage the influx of money from outside the key 11 states It will be lobbying on steroids
Then there is the nationalization of voter fraud Some states require proof of citizenship photo IDrsquos no IDrsquos but NPV will eliminate that choice and the containment of fraud that states provide
I personally experienced absentee voter fraud For example one woman voted from Canada and used the address of a local middle school The courts
in NY let these votes stand Even the dead people we found were counted because you only have a few days to prove they are dead and courts want a
death certificate which is hard to get on hundreds of people in a matter of days So in NY dead people vote I happen to know of a number of illegal
aliens who voted as well
In Kansas the Democratic primary of Rizzo vs Royster shows the seriousness of voter fraud A group in support of Rizzo brought in 50 Somali nationals to vote Rizzo won by one vote
ACORN often mobilizes aliens to vote
In Mississippi 23 counties had more people registered to vote than were alive
Examples are endless though some would have us believe fraud is not a widespread problem
There is the costly and lengthy litigation which will ensue if NPV passes Examples are -
What happens constitutionally if a state in the NPV doesnrsquot like the candidate they are forced to give their electoral votes to and pulls out of the
compact though they are not free to do so
NPV does not meet equal protection under the 14th amendment for the states who do not sign on to the NPV
The compact clause Article I suggests it needs congressional approval
Article II delegates power to the states which the NPV overrides
Administratively a non-qualified person not even on the ballot could win it will force states with solid voting requirements to go with those who
allow rampant fraud if they have higher population density the individuality of states that includes early voter registration felons voting voting by mail et cetera will dissolve into the requirements of the heavily populated states Close elections will cause inevitable and lengthy delays
There is even a question of whether some states will be able to vote under the compact
18
The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
(cont)
Litigation will take a long time and could end up leaving the incumbent President in place for months or years
NPV will -
Federalize the vote
Destroy state sovereignty in the Presidential election
Circumvent the Constitution
Disenfranchise voters by giving 11 states the power to decide the election
It will ignite endless litigation
Reduce voting to the lowest common denominator
Give a handful of states supremacy
NPV is a ldquoone size fits allrdquo and it forces many states to abandon the voting procedures and policies that make them unique It focuses on the end
results and sacrifices process

NOTE One of our very own Republican Missouri Legislators introduced a bill in the last legislative session in favor of the National Popular Vote and to eliminate the Electoral College Dwight Scharnhorst (93rd District before re-districting) explained that he did not know that what this bill was about and that is why he introduced it Unfortunately MrScharnhorst is now running unopposed in the newly re-districted 88th District

GETTING INVOLVED IN YOUR PRECINCT
WHY Because we believe ldquoall politics is localrdquo
Become involved at the local level to restore conservative values and principles that will then ldquotrickle UPrdquo to all levels of government
MOPP is not the first to utilize this strategy ndash Phyllis Schlafly implemented the ldquoprecinct strategyrdquo to defeat the ERA 30+ years ago
We believe that Missouri needed to join the ranks of other states with similar efforts including Texas Florida Pennsylvania Nevada and
Utah
We want to encourage Missourians across the State to work in their own communities and counties to make a differencehellip
WHAT MOPPrsquos 4 pronged strategy
1 Key element (hence the name Missouri Precinct Project) Identify the 40-50 of the unfilled precincttownship
committee positions in their county that go unfilled (many of our members have filed to fill these positions across the
state ndash ie St Louis County stat 35 new)
2 Get out the Conservative vote ndash
a MOPP encourages its members to utilize our database (we are in the final stage of determining which program we
will be using) to canvass their neighborhood to identify and register conservative voters educate voters on issues
and candidates and get them to the polls on election day
b MOPP also partners with ldquoChampion The Votehellipencouraging our volunteers to become Champions in the
Champion the Vote program to register unregistered Christian voters (in Missouri in 2008 there was only a
4000 difference between the 2 presidential candidateshellipthatrsquos a pretty close margin but yet there are
approximately 150000 unregistered Christians in the State)
Go here to become a ldquoChampionrdquo httpchampionthevotecomheadquartersmissouri

IN SUMMARY If we are ever to get control of our government and change the type of people we get into office and the control that big-
money currently brings we must get directly and actively involved at the grassroots level in the two-party system
It is not going to be easy and it is not going to change overnight But without this approach we are simply reshuffling the
chairs on the deck of the Titanic Do we just want the furniture to look better before we crash into the iceberg or do we
want to change the shiprsquos course to prevent it from sinking
Mission Statement
Restore Constitutional principles and conservative values by engaging conservatives in grassroots politics

The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
(cont)
We should not favor one side or the other in the United States of America
The initiative has been approved by half the states necessary to pass it The states that have approved it equal 70 electoral votes and only 138 are needed for it to pass It is well on its way to becoming law
NPV circumvents the Constitution by allowing individual states to change the Constitution without an amendment However the compact clause of
the Constitution does not allow any state to ldquoenter into any Agreement or Compact with another Staterdquo Liberal states like California could join with
Illinois New York and another 8 other liberal states forming a super bloc that would give all their electoral votes to the winner forming the bloc that could take the election
Article V specifically states that the Constitution must be amended ldquono State without its Consent shall be deprived of its equal Suffrage in the Senaterdquo The NPV as structured will immediately take effect without an amendment and it will probably be in time for the 2012 election
NPV has bipartisan support and the opposition should be bipartisan as well It is not a partisan issue it is about states rights and the power of each individual guaranteed by the electoral college
NPV will have many unwanted side effects The states that decide the election will probably be the states that receive the federal dollars because
their votes count They will likely be the only states that candidates will visit
Another problematic side effect reared its ugly head in my own Congressional district on Long Island Our congressman Tim Bishop received most
of his funding from New York City and other areas outside Long Island including as far away as California NPV will encourage the influx of money from outside the key 11 states It will be lobbying on steroids
Then there is the nationalization of voter fraud Some states require proof of citizenship photo IDrsquos no IDrsquos but NPV will eliminate that choice and the containment of fraud that states provide
I personally experienced absentee voter fraud For example one woman voted from Canada and used the address of a local middle school The courts
in NY let these votes stand Even the dead people we found were counted because you only have a few days to prove they are dead and courts want a
death certificate which is hard to get on hundreds of people in a matter of days So in NY dead people vote I happen to know of a number of illegal
aliens who voted as well
In Kansas the Democratic primary of Rizzo vs Royster shows the seriousness of voter fraud A group in support of Rizzo brought in 50 Somali nationals to vote Rizzo won by one vote
ACORN often mobilizes aliens to vote
In Mississippi 23 counties had more people registered to vote than were alive
Examples are endless though some would have us believe fraud is not a widespread problem
There is the costly and lengthy litigation which will ensue if NPV passes Examples are -
What happens constitutionally if a state in the NPV doesnrsquot like the candidate they are forced to give their electoral votes to and pulls out of the
compact though they are not free to do so
NPV does not meet equal protection under the 14th amendment for the states who do not sign on to the NPV
The compact clause Article I suggests it needs congressional approval
Article II delegates power to the states which the NPV overrides
Administratively a non-qualified person not even on the ballot could win it will force states with solid voting requirements to go with those who
allow rampant fraud if they have higher population density the individuality of states that includes early voter registration felons voting voting by mail et cetera will dissolve into the requirements of the heavily populated states Close elections will cause inevitable and lengthy delays
There is even a question of whether some states will be able to vote under the compact
18
The National Popular Vote ndash 11 States Can Decide the Presidential Election
(cont)
Litigation will take a long time and could end up leaving the incumbent President in place for months or years
NPV will -
Federalize the vote
Destroy state sovereignty in the Presidential election
Circumvent the Constitution
Disenfranchise voters by giving 11 states the power to decide the election
It will ignite endless litigation
Reduce voting to the lowest common denominator
Give a handful of states supremacy
NPV is a ldquoone size fits allrdquo and it forces many states to abandon the voting procedures and policies that make them unique It focuses on the end
results and sacrifices process

NOTE One of our very own Republican Missouri Legislators introduced a bill in the last legislative session in favor of the National Popular Vote and to eliminate the Electoral College Dwight Scharnhorst (93rd District before re-districting) explained that he did not know that what this bill was about and that is why he introduced it Unfortunately MrScharnhorst is now running unopposed in the newly re-districted 88th District

GETTING INVOLVED IN YOUR PRECINCT
WHY Because we believe ldquoall politics is localrdquo
Become involved at the local level to restore conservative values and principles that will then ldquotrickle UPrdquo to all levels of government
MOPP is not the first to utilize this strategy ndash Phyllis Schlafly implemented the ldquoprecinct strategyrdquo to defeat the ERA 30+ years ago
We believe that Missouri needed to join the ranks of other states with similar efforts including Texas Florida Pennsylvania Nevada and
Utah
We want to encourage Missourians across the State to work in their own communities and counties to make a differencehellip
WHAT MOPPrsquos 4 pronged strategy
1 Key element (hence the name Missouri Precinct Project) Identify the 40-50 of the unfilled precincttownship
committee positions in their county that go unfilled (many of our members have filed to fill these positions across the
state ndash ie St Louis County stat 35 new)
2 Get out the Conservative vote ndash
a MOPP encourages its members to utilize our database (we are in the final stage of determining which program we
will be using) to canvass their neighborhood to identify and register conservative voters educate voters on issues
and candidates and get them to the polls on election day
b MOPP also partners with ldquoChampion The Votehellipencouraging our volunteers to become Champions in the
Champion the Vote program to register unregistered Christian voters (in Missouri in 2008 there was only a
4000 difference between the 2 presidential candidateshellipthatrsquos a pretty close margin but yet there are
approximately 150000 unregistered Christians in the State)
Go here to become a ldquoChampionrdquo httpchampionthevotecomheadquartersmissouri
3 Encourage becoming a poll worker to help prevent voter fraud
4 Build and maintain a database in order to form a more effective coalition united voice for Conservatives across the State
HOW EducateMotivatendash
1 Precinct training seminar last October partnering with Dallas Tea Party and American Majority
2 Precinct Organizing and Preventing Voter Fraud training (Feb 2012)
3 Caucus Training Seminar
4 Training Manuals ndash
--Caucus 101 Handbook
(We are very pleased at how many grassroots individuals participated in the recent caucuses even though they have
never been involved before)

IN SUMMARY If we are ever to get control of our government and change the type of people we get into office and the control that big-
money currently brings we must get directly and actively involved at the grassroots level in the two-party system
It is not going to be easy and it is not going to change overnight But without this approach we are simply reshuffling the
chairs on the deck of the Titanic Do we just want the furniture to look better before we crash into the iceberg or do we
want to change the shiprsquos course to prevent it from sinking
Mission Statement
Restore Constitutional principles and conservative values by engaging conservatives in grassroots politics

GETTING INVOLVED IN YOUR PRECINCT
WHY Because we believe ldquoall politics is localrdquo
Become involved at the local level to restore conservative values and principles that will then ldquotrickle UPrdquo to all levels of government
MOPP is not the first to utilize this strategy ndash Phyllis Schlafly implemented the ldquoprecinct strategyrdquo to defeat the ERA 30+ years ago
We believe that Missouri needed to join the ranks of other states with similar efforts including Texas Florida Pennsylvania Nevada and
Utah
We want to encourage Missourians across the State to work in their own communities and counties to make a differencehellip
WHAT MOPPrsquos 4 pronged strategy
1 Key element (hence the name Missouri Precinct Project) Identify the 40-50 of the unfilled precincttownship
committee positions in their county that go unfilled (many of our members have filed to fill these positions across the
state ndash ie St Louis County stat 35 new)
2 Get out the Conservative vote ndash
a MOPP encourages its members to utilize our database (we are in the final stage of determining which program we
will be using) to canvass their neighborhood to identify and register conservative voters educate voters on issues
and candidates and get them to the polls on election day
b MOPP also partners with ldquoChampion The Votehellipencouraging our volunteers to become Champions in the
Champion the Vote program to register unregistered Christian voters (in Missouri in 2008 there was only a
4000 difference between the 2 presidential candidateshellipthatrsquos a pretty close margin but yet there are
approximately 150000 unregistered Christians in the State)
Go here to become a ldquoChampionrdquo httpchampionthevotecomheadquartersmissouri
3 Encourage becoming a poll worker to help prevent voter fraud
4 Build and maintain a database in order to form a more effective coalition united voice for Conservatives across the State
HOW EducateMotivatendash
1 Precinct training seminar last October partnering with Dallas Tea Party and American Majority
2 Precinct Organizing and Preventing Voter Fraud training (Feb 2012)

IN SUMMARY If we are ever to get control of our government and change the type of people we get into office and the control that big-
money currently brings we must get directly and actively involved at the grassroots level in the two-party system
It is not going to be easy and it is not going to change overnight But without this approach we are simply reshuffling the
chairs on the deck of the Titanic Do we just want the furniture to look better before we crash into the iceberg or do we
want to change the shiprsquos course to prevent it from sinking

GETTING INVOLVED IN YOUR PRECINCT
WHY Because we believe ldquoall politics is localrdquo
Become involved at the local level to restore conservative values and principles that will then ldquotrickle UPrdquo to all levels of government
MOPP is not the first to utilize this strategy ndash Phyllis Schlafly implemented the ldquoprecinct strategyrdquo to defeat the ERA 30+ years ago
We believe that Missouri needed to join the ranks of other states with similar efforts including Texas Florida Pennsylvania Nevada and
Utah
We want to encourage Missourians across the State to work in their own communities and counties to make a differencehellip
WHAT MOPPrsquos 4 pronged strategy
1 Key element (hence the name Missouri Precinct Project) Identify the 40-50 of the unfilled precincttownship
committee positions in their county that go unfilled (many of our members have filed to fill these positions across the
state ndash ie St Louis County stat 35 new)
2 Get out the Conservative vote ndash
a MOPP encourages its members to utilize our database (we are in the final stage of determining which program we
will be using) to canvass their neighborhood to identify and register conservative voters educate voters on issues
and candidates and get them to the polls on election day
b MOPP also partners with ldquoChampion The Votehellipencouraging our volunteers to become Champions in the
Champion the Vote program to register unregistered Christian voters (in Missouri in 2008 there was only a
4000 difference between the 2 presidential candidateshellipthatrsquos a pretty close margin but yet there are
approximately 150000 unregistered Christians in the State)
Go here to become a ldquoChampionrdquo httpchampionthevotecomheadquartersmissouri
3 Encourage becoming a poll worker to help prevent voter fraud
4 Build and maintain a database in order to form a more effective coalition united voice for Conservatives across the State
HOW EducateMotivatendash
1 Precinct training seminar last October partnering with Dallas Tea Party and American Majority
2 Precinct Organizing and Preventing Voter Fraud training (Feb 2012)
3 Caucus Training Seminar
4 Training Manuals ndash
--Caucus 101 Handbook

never been involved before)
Note MOPP will soon releasehellip 1) ldquoPrecinct Training Manualrdquo and a 2 ldquoBecoming a Poll Workerrdquo manual

IN SUMMARY If we are ever to get control of our government and change the type of people we get into office and the control that big-
money currently brings we must get directly and actively involved at the grassroots level in the two-party system
It is not going to be easy and it is not going to change overnight But without this approach we are simply reshuffling the
chairs on the deck of the Titanic Do we just want the furniture to look better before we crash into the iceberg or do we
want to change the shiprsquos course to prevent it from sinking
Mission Statement
Restore Constitutional principles and conservative values by engaging conservatives in grassroots politics

GETTING INVOLVED IN YOUR PRECINCT
WHY Because we believe ldquoall politics is localrdquo
Become involved at the local level to restore conservative values and principles that will then ldquotrickle UPrdquo to all levels of government
MOPP is not the first to utilize this strategy ndash Phyllis Schlafly implemented the ldquoprecinct strategyrdquo to defeat the ERA 30+ years ago
We believe that Missouri needed to join the ranks of other states with similar efforts including Texas Florida Pennsylvania Nevada and
Utah
We want to encourage Missourians across the State to work in their own communities and counties to make a differencehellip
WHAT MOPPrsquos 4 pronged strategy
1 Key element (hence the name Missouri Precinct Project) Identify the 40-50 of the unfilled precincttownship
committee positions in their county that go unfilled (many of our members have filed to fill these positions across the
state ndash ie St Louis County stat 35 new)
2 Get out the Conservative vote ndash
a MOPP encourages its members to utilize our database (we are in the final stage of determining which program we
will be using) to canvass their neighborhood to identify and register conservative voters educate voters on issues
and candidates and get them to the polls on election day
b MOPP also partners with ldquoChampion The Votehellipencouraging our volunteers to become Champions in the
Champion the Vote program to register unregistered Christian voters (in Missouri in 2008 there was only a
4000 difference between the 2 presidential candidateshellipthatrsquos a pretty close margin but yet there are
approximately 150000 unregistered Christians in the State)
Go here to become a ldquoChampionrdquo httpchampionthevotecomheadquartersmissouri

4 Build and maintain a database in order to form a more effective coalition united voice for Conservatives across the State

IN SUMMARY If we are ever to get control of our government and change the type of people we get into office and the control that big-
money currently brings we must get directly and actively involved at the grassroots level in the two-party system
It is not going to be easy and it is not going to change overnight But without this approach we are simply reshuffling the
chairs on the deck of the Titanic Do we just want the furniture to look better before we crash into the iceberg or do we
want to change the shiprsquos course to prevent it from sinking
Mission Statement
Restore Constitutional principles and conservative values by engaging conservatives in grassroots politics

GETTING INVOLVED IN YOUR PRECINCT
WHY Because we believe ldquoall politics is localrdquo
Become involved at the local level to restore conservative values and principles that will then ldquotrickle UPrdquo to all levels of government
MOPP is not the first to utilize this strategy ndash Phyllis Schlafly implemented the ldquoprecinct strategyrdquo to defeat the ERA 30+ years ago
We believe that Missouri needed to join the ranks of other states with similar efforts including Texas Florida Pennsylvania Nevada and
Utah
We want to encourage Missourians across the State to work in their own communities and counties to make a differencehellip
WHAT MOPPrsquos 4 pronged strategy
1 Key element (hence the name Missouri Precinct Project) Identify the 40-50 of the unfilled precincttownship
committee positions in their county that go unfilled (many of our members have filed to fill these positions across the
state ndash ie St Louis County stat 35 new)
2 Get out the Conservative vote ndash
a MOPP encourages its members to utilize our database (we are in the final stage of determining which program we
will be using) to canvass their neighborhood to identify and register conservative voters educate voters on issues
and candidates and get them to the polls on election day
b MOPP also partners with ldquoChampion The Votehellipencouraging our volunteers to become Champions in the
Champion the Vote program to register unregistered Christian voters (in Missouri in 2008 there was only a
4000 difference between the 2 presidential candidateshellipthatrsquos a pretty close margin but yet there are
approximately 150000 unregistered Christians in the State)

IN SUMMARY If we are ever to get control of our government and change the type of people we get into office and the control that big-
money currently brings we must get directly and actively involved at the grassroots level in the two-party system
It is not going to be easy and it is not going to change overnight But without this approach we are simply reshuffling the
chairs on the deck of the Titanic Do we just want the furniture to look better before we crash into the iceberg or do we
want to change the shiprsquos course to prevent it from sinking
