2010 Elections

The following is a message received from Mike Lewinski of the Kendallville 9/12 group:

 

Among the patriots who make up the 912/TP struggle against the Statists, there seems to be agreement that the enemies of freedom who have been elected to representative positions must be thrown out of office if we are to restore our Constitutional Republic . The Kendallville group believes that as long as we still have free speech and the vote we must use those gifts from the Founders to defeat the evil from within which is destroying our country.

From this perspective it seems our efforts, in the final analysis, have to be directed to the vote. Educating people, registering citizens, and seeing that they get to the polls should be our primary objective. This is the only real bullet we have.

We ought to be collaborating to accomplish that. A portion of our collective intelligence and wisdom should be focused on educating people, registering voters, and getting them to the polls twice in 2010 and again in 2012. We should be sharing information about this. The first election is only 7 months away. And don't forget, that election determines whether or not we will have any real choice in the fall election.

Remember, ACORN and the politically active leftist unions are going to be making mega efforts to educate, register, and get people to the polls in those same elections. Is that something we are just going to concede to them? Are we going to rely upon "chance" to turn the tide at the polls, or are we going to start doing the hard, tedious, boring political work necessary to use free speech and the vote to beat the evil that wants to enslave us?

Certainly, there must be some people in each group who would be willing to work with others in our groups to focus upon the ways and means of positively effecting the elections. Please have anyone who would be willing to help us figure out how we can accomplish the three goals listed above contact me [mlewinski@mchsi.com 260 925-3849]. If you want me to come to one of your meeting and discuss this I will be glad to do so. Work on this effort which has barely been started can be found at www.auburncommittee.org Sign in, go the forum link located in the menu bar at the top of the page, open New American Revolution, and open the Hope thread. There you will find the three files-Candidate Questionnaire, Registration Project, and Get Out The Vote.

Additional Information

If you have not heard, the Kendallville City Council voted down a State Sovereignty Resolution by three to one. The mayor said in a prepared statement that she could not support it because she believes in a "living Constitution". Two of the three councilmen who voted against the resolution had told us a month earlier that they could support it. One of the councilmen, with whom we had not spoken, implied that we were just a bunch of Beck robots, and said that Glenn was an entertainer holding his finger up in the air [Glenn's selling out his country for ratings (money)]. We do have a video of the council meeting.

When we meet tonight, I'm going to talk with our group about punishing these politicians, and lifting up Regan Ford [the councilman who voted for the resolution he authored for us] with a tea party in Kendallville. In the State Sovereignty Demonstration Packet [which is attached] we observed "In the upcoming election season, we will be in a good position to ask all of our candidates where they stand on state sovereignty and what they will do to support it. If we had not been successful, we would have worked to make state sovereignty an important issue in the councilman's next election. Either way, a focus on state sovereignty opens up so many of the issues we want politicians to address [shape the elections].

I am also going to ask the group to commit $100 of the $1,000 towards a Goto Meeting.com annual contract for a webinar capability which also includes go to meeting capabilities. [Think of an old fashion telephone party line with a computer screen that can be shared by all of the participants. It's not much money and it would enable leaders from the group to conveniently meet, as well as allow geographically diverse individuals within all the groups to work together on whatever projects might be decided upon. Any thoughts you might have on the use of such technology is welcome. “Goto Meeting” can accommodate 16 sites. The webinar can handle up to 1,000 sites. Isn't technology wonderful?
