We have met the enemy and it is us and Main Stream Media ("MSM") disinformation about the Tea Party and what it stands for is helping to keep people ignorant and keep holding them and the fruits of their labor hostage. In my heart of hearts, I believe We The People can right the ship, but it has to happen with this election. Defeating Obama would be great but as long as the House and Senate are not under his "spell" or control, we can stop further decay. It all starts at the local levels and taking control of Congress so as to clip the wings of the Imperial President. So I offer the following to be copied, pasted and disseminated in hopes of raising awareness and getting people to think instead of just "feel" and act emotionally:
"In the spirit of letting the Tea Party speak for itself as opposed to allowing others who are not part of the Tea Party to try and control the debate on what it is the Tea Party actually stands for through the steady beat of propaganda through their control of the Main Stream Media (the "MSM") in a manner with respect to which Josef Goebbels would be green with envy, below is a link to the Tea Party Platform from the Tea Party itself. Of course, I understand through those unbiased and perpetually truthful members of the MSM, the liberal elite and the liberal sages of Hollywood and the Entertainment world that the Tea Party platform is merely a “clever ruse” to disguise a “hidden racist agenda” and that all members of the Tea Party are actually “reactionary bigots” but, just for the sake of argument on the PRINCIPLES espoused as opposed to the unspoken motives of the source of those principles, I offer them for consideration. After all, is not a basic tenet of the roots of Western philosophy – by that evil racist “DWEM” ** Rene Descartes I believe -- that a principle and/or idea can be tested and evaluated separate and apart from its source which source may not even exist but in one’s own mind?
Of course, that is just a philosophical tenet stemming form the “Dark Ages” of the Enlightenment and the Renaissance and, as I understand it from the cultures that continue to mutilate women, who still stone people to death for petty offenses or “sex” offenses (but only women), who still have issues with separating their drinking water from their feces and urine, and who still kill innocent people in the name of their “god”, that whole Enlightenment thing and the Renaissance were in and of themselves “culturally biased” to begin with so NONE of that philosophy has any validity anyway. But just in case you have not been so brainwashed as to reject entirely the basic principles for evaluating what one observes with one’s own mind as articulated by Rene Descartes in his Discourse on Method (http://records.viu.ca/~johnstoi/descartes/descartes1.htm) (a fairly short read but a little more difficult than simply traipsing through the latest Danielle Steel “novel”, Time, Newsweek, the New York Times and/or absorbing the “truths” of the talking heads of the MSM like Chris Matthews and Keith Olbermann, i.e., you may actually have to take a little time to reflect and digest the content) check out the Tea Party Platform and tell me what it is exactly that you may disagree with IN PRINCIPLE as opposed to disagreeing with it as a result of the source?

**DWEM: Short for “Dead White European Males”. A Word (I cannot remember what you call these summaries for longer phrases. Please enlighten if you can) created by those who claim cultural bias in all things but what they themselves have figured out in the scant years they have been on the planet who seem tied to the idea of ignoring the past and starting “anew” with each generation. A group condemned to repeat the errors of the past as they refuse to learn from history."
Let's put people to the test by politely asking them why they support a candidate and politely correcting mistakes of philosophy and/or fact.

Race, is a hugh factor, as to why Obama is doing so good. People are not aware of this or are too afraid to address the topic. If this topic is not addressed Obama will be reelected!
From the book: America Under Fire – 3 things America must do to rebuild its foundation.
1) Learn how to fight a guerrilla war
2) An economic solution that no one thought of
3) The other side of racism (It’s embarrassing being white and it’s not alright to be lily-white).
This is something which was disgracefully missed in the 2008 election. There is another side to racism, ladies and gentlemen, and people in America, especially white people, seem to be completely unaware of it. Barack Obama, should not be allowed to run for reelection in 2012, on grounds of Racism.
“Number one is the Reverend Wright thing. Now I don’t know if Reverend Wright is a racist or not, nor due I care; but what I do care about is the fact that if Joe Bidin, John McCain, or Sarah Pallin went to a church for 22 years where a white minister was preaching and saying racist things against black people, and hateful things against America, with racism always looming in the background, all 3 of them would have been throw out of the election immediately (two weeks tops and they would have been sent home crying like little babies). Obama got a complete pass. In fact, most white people, probably the stupidest people on the whole planet when it comes to racism; we’re not even aware of this. If you did mention it, they would just smile and say, “Oh, that doesn’t bother me,” like there one of the good one’s, or they’d say, “yeah I know,” acknowledging what happened and admitting it bothered them, but this had no real effect on the way they acted or voted. If one of the 3 white people (Bidden, McCain, or Palin) did this, these very same white people would have demanded there immediate dismissal from the campaign. This is racism (the other side of racism), and if you don’t start seeing it, white people, racism will never go away in America. It’s a double standard; the same laws that apply to white people must also apple to black people or racism will never go away in this country. I can still hear the brothers laughing in the Marine Corp when white people said this. Well, Ladies and Gentlemen, this has to bother you because it’s racism (the other side of racism). White people, you can’t have a double standard in this country when it comes to racism. The same rules that apply to white people must also apply to black people. If this doesn’t happen, then racism will never go away in this country, and this has to bother you. You’re not being one of the good ones; your just making complete fools out of yourself. And if your doing this because your afraid then shame on you. Mr. President, I ask that you don’t run in 2012 due to the Reverend Wright thing for the reasons I mention above. Now most white people are completely confused at this point, but since you’re half black, you know exactly what I’m talking about. I ask that you don’t run in 2012. Sorry, black people, but most of you were completely aware of this and said nothing, so most of you are also guilty of racism too (the other side of racism). Juan Williams, was the only black person I know of who mentioned this, and the only news man in all America to see this and had the courage to state it. Of course white people completely missed the importance of what he said.
Another example of racism during the election (the other side of racism) is when the media kept saying that the young affluent white people were voting for Obama. What does that mean? If your not voting for Obama, you’re an ignorant, worthless piece of shit, possible a racist? That’s a racist statement! And why where the young white kids so heavily supportive of Obama? Could it be that these kids had been so thoroughly brainwashed in our schools with being politically correct and multiculturalism that they where inwardly terrified at voting against him? Inwardly being made to feel that they now were playing an important part in righting all the wrongs of the past, something they know nothing about? Being made to feel, after years of propaganda, by our schools and the media, that they finial got there chance to wave there freedom flags high. How do I know this? Because before I joined the Marine Corp and the brothers taught me different, I would’ve voted for Obama for the same reasons.”
For more information you can buy the book “America Under Fire” on-line at Amazon, Barns and Noble, or Xlibris.com. It’s only about $16 for a paperback and about $8 for an E-Book.
Also covered in the book, is the impotent and stupid way, America always insist upon fighting a guerrilla war. Many of the same mistakes we made in Vietnam where making again in Afghanistan, and Iraq. Why? Part 1 - this is why the book was written; and part 2 covers an economic solution to America’s economic problems. This solution will probably never be implemented but people must become aware of it and start thinking and acting accordingly.

Roger,
As to some of those that don't vote, be glad. They most likely are people that are clueless as to who is even running for office (kinda like I was about 10 years ago).
Roger,
If Obama gives full access to his natal records to Romney in return for his tax returns; the voters will get engaged, if they are not already. I don't know that to be true.

No, the problem is the people who don't vote.
Totally disengaged.
It's not always the voters fault. The wisdom of the crowds has often been proven far greater than any one person, or group of people*. But if the voters are given contrived input, their wisdom will be off, sometimes way off.
During this debate all will agree, whomever is elected to take the oath of office of the presidency of the United States, the country, itself, will have to rally around the President. There are two issues that presently stand in the way of allowing this to happen. In Obama's case, it's his birth certificate authentication and in Romney's case: his tax returns.
It seems both Romney and Obama have made a Faustian bargain between themselves and against an informed electorate: "You stop raising the issue of my tax returns, and I'll not press you on your birth certificate."
This is the only reason I can think of for Obama to suddenly stop his (personal) attacks over Romney's failure to publish the last ten years of his federal tax returns and Romney's failure to press Obama about his Hawaiian Health Department records and his natal hospital records.
Either way, it's the electorate who will be paying the price.

I have seen the results of what the muslims do back in the 60`s when they killed over 50 phillippinos or a whole fishing village and all the men women and kids with their head cut off..
Wait until they turn the phone off.. Then watch them start to riot and bho calls in his private army to clean things up....
@Oren Long: they're way too busy with their free iphones and ipads, etc. It'll get interesting when those dry up too.
Those who want Sharia and Communism amaze me! If this comes they will find out how lead feels or big knifes and being put into trenchs before they kill them... Just look at German or Russian history and you will see what is going to come if they gain power...
Way too simplified , the problem goes back to communist educators , who , instead of educating our young for the last fifty years have been indoctrinating them . Just as deceptive were so many communists , calling themselves progressives , getting into government by deceiving the voters , and once in , hiring many more communists .
