A few weeks ago, I relinquished my position as Chairman for the Illinois Modern Whig party. I did not do this because I no longer support the party; I remain steadfast in my support for their efforts and will on a local level, continue to work for the party as best I can.
I gave up this position because I feel the state of Illinois, and our nation, are ripe for the Modern Whig party to make major progress. Unfortunately, I have neither the time or the money to make this happen. Sadly, when I asked for volunteers, I was bombarded with emails from people willing to volunteer, but not willing to give either, their time or money. A new party, such as the Modern Whigs, must be supported by volunteers until it has time to grow roots. I provided as much financial support as I could, but simply could not do it alone.
I have always believed that everyone has a price. What I learned about people, at least in Illinois, is that they are all fed up with what is happening in our state and our nation; but they have not yet reached the point where their anger was greater than their desire for Starbucks. I, on the other hand, had reached this point many years ago. I do not have luxuries such as cable TV or air conditioning, but while other people consider HBO a necessity, I understand that none of this will matter if we sacrifice our most basic rights, our freedom and our independence!
Since most of my posts are critical of our national "leadership" (sic), I have decided to create a new all-encompassing blog. I titled this blog U.S. Constitution in Crisis because this is where we, as a nation, face the most danger. A title such as "America in Crisis" is a bit misleading, since America includes North, South and Central Amercia's. Further, while as citizens of the U.S., we are said to be patriotic if we stand up for America. The fact is, a true patriot is loyal, not to the dirt on which he walks, but to the Constitution for which he swears his loyalty. Our soldiers, our politicians and yes, our President, all swear to "preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."
Our Constitution is under attack by a small faction in power today. Their rhetoric, their actions and their practices are very dangerous to the future sovereignty of the United States. They have learned that they can spread a lie about their opposition and retract it later, knowing that once the damage is done, the retraction is meaningless, because as humans we will always remember the negative. They also learned that they can win the support of immigrants, legal and otherwise, by giving them unencumbered passage into the U.S. They know that these immigrants, coming from places much different than the U.S., will not understand the danger of their actions as it relates the U.S. Constitution. They also know that these immigrants, while I am sure are very good people with assets which will provide great value at some point; are not generational citizens and therefore, do not understand the struggles we have faced as a nation to save our Constitution and all that it represents. Their parents, grandparents and great grandparents did not fight for our freedom.
This very dangerous group in power today, is teaching their new supporters that all people of color are or were victims in the past and therefore, are entitled to cradle to grave, government support. The only stipulation is that the Democrats must remain in power, otherwise, the evil white male conservatives, will turn back the clock and put them in the fields, tied down in chains. The democrats have been very successful with their objective to win the support of the minority groups and mutilate the U.S. Constitution.
What these unsuspecting people do not understand is how absolute power corrupts, absolutely! What they do not understand is that the people in power are in the game for power and greed. They have one objective; to selfishly acquire as much as they can, by any means possible. What they do not understand is that the conservatives have a history of working for the greater good of all citizens, while the democrats have a history of polarizing the nation, serving only the small group they need to keep them in power. They provide just enough to this group to retain their loyalty. These citizens do not understand however, that in exchange for their vote, they have given up their independence and the opportunity to grow to their full potential. While I am sure some people would gladly exchange their independence for a "free ride"; I have to believe that most people, given the correct information, would object to this practice.
As loyalists to the U.S. Constitution, it is our job to get the word out, to educate, to ask questions and to challenge lies. In 2008, citizens voted for "change" without asking Obama what changes he was proposing. In 2012, citizens re-elected Obama based on a successful electronic campaign of lies about the conservative candidates. The conservative candidates were not successful at educating the voters on the dangerous tactics of the liberals and the deadly results of their polices. Gearing up for the 2014 election season, we MUST make a better effort to educated the voters! Despite the media black-out of conservative message, we must get the word out using the same methods as our opposition - Facebook, You-Tube, Twitter and all others. Further, we must get our message, not to our supporters, but to Obama's supporters.
We know our supporters will vote for us; we need the Obama supporters to understand that their future wrests on their support of the conservative party. We must teach them that they cannot give-in to fear mongering. We must teach them that voting on single issues such as abortion rights or gay marriage, is a selfish act and does not benefit the masses. We must teach them the basics of Christian teaching - selfishness is bad, taking without giving is bad! We must show them that as a group, the conservatives of the nation have given much more to charity to help their brothers and sisters than the democrats. We must work together for change that matters; change which will guarantee all citizens, their rights will be preserved and protected under the Constitution of the United States, so help us God!
