MINORITY-QUOTES, relatable quotes, motivational funny ...

The "silent majority" was mentioned by President Nixon in 1969, who labeled middle Americans who weren't protesting the Vietnam war or joining the counter culture — two activities being over-reported by the media of the day. The silent majority didn't speak up much but respected traditional American values with a good-natured approach to political issues.

They were silent, but they voted. In 1972, Nixon was re-elected with one of the largest landslides in U.S. history — 520 electoral votes to only 17 for McGovern.

Today, most Americans focus on work and family and trust that our elected officials will work for us, and if they don't, the folks who pay attention to such stuff will vote them out.

But after five years of hysteria over Donald Trump, the media have hyped so many radical liberal causes to the point where many conservative Americans feel they are an endangered minority. If we speak up, we feel we will be ridiculed or ostracized by our friends and co-workers or even lose our jobs. People with conservative bumper stickers have had their cars vandalized, and those wearing patriotic clothing have been harassed and physically assaulted.

There are so many issues that face us that we can easily be overwhelmed and simply give up on political discourse, which furthers the idea that liberals rule the day.

But the silent majority in the United States is waking up — not in a uniform manner, but on an issue-by-issue basis. They know what their eyes are seeing on the nightly news, and they aren't fooled one bit by blatant liberal spin.

  • Just call me "angry-frustrated old timer", because I remember the better days.

  • Likely everyone here's schedule is loaded to the gills fighting. 

    Around here there are meetings and events galore. 

    People going to city council and school board meetings. 

    Ohio Freedom Fighters has a meeting every Wednesday with speakers like Dr. Frank or Dr. Tenpenny. 

    Many hundreds show.  Or a thousand.  I do the electronics. 

    Then we have seven children spread out to 5 states.  And they have children. 

    It is 1:45 AM now.  How much sleep do I sacrifice?  Answer - how badly do I want to save America?

    Telegram is HOT.  Wife and I and our friends garner much there.  Little delay from a newsworthy event to it being posted - maybe minutes.

    But I take stories here and put them there and everyone benefits greatly.

    Trying to figure a technique to get some of those people to check out this place. 

    The awakening going on, and it is HUGE, it could be argued would not have happened if this site and a couple others had not been running for many years prior.

    Years back (15) tried and quickly abandoned FB because I saw so much moral depravity.  I knew it would devolve and the owners were depraved.  Did it? Silly question.

    Let me wrap up with major encouragement to all those who have been here for years.  Your time is not wasted.  You are digital soldiers.

    Back soon.

    • What I see in sw Ohio- former Rep Candice Keller started Patriot America77.com. they went everywhere.  Institute on the Constitution (IOTC) teamed up and taught Constitution,  interposition and constitutional Sheriff responsibilities..  Attendance either doubled on up by over 50% each time (monthly) since starting up. 

      Added entertainment. Kept growing,  now spreading out.  People running for school boards.  I was just sworn in as R Precinct Committeeperson. Online training about common law Jural Assemblies. Training against CRT. There is a rising tide of involvement, is what I see.

  • Quiet night I see.

  • Get it through your thick skull. We are not stupid, we are voiceless. If everyone on the playground is a bully, there can be no hero. Nobody sticks up for truth tellers or righteous people because they will be lambasted ostracized and abused. Look at history to only see with every dictator, every communist, every socialist, every Marxist regime has done to its people. We were the shining city on the hill, now we're drowning in the swamp. You can't take the middle class every day average person expect them to be able to do something. I can't think of a single leader alive right now who has the power to change anything. 

    • We are in this mess PRECISELY because we were too busy, as we told ourselves, with "Important things."

      Our Founders solemnly warned us we would lose our freedom when ordinary people refused to be involved in politics.

      And that is what happened.  We stopped holding anyone accountable.  Voting is a nothing burger when actions do not back it up.

      Think hard about this.  You do know, I hope, at 3AM Nov 3 CNN reported there was 158 million registered voters.

      In a high turnout election never has total voting reached 65%.  Close but not over.  This time be generous and say 75%.  Means 118.5 million voted.

      At 10PM CNN said DJT had 74 million.  That leaves 44.5 million for Bidan. (Misspel on purpose)  Then counting stopped.  DJT broke the algorithm in the machines.

      Nonsense went on start/stop over and over.  Then the announcement Bidan got 80 million.  IMPOSSIBLE.  A 97% turnout???

      To add more fire - reverse the algorithm and the reality is DJT got over 100 million votes leaving 18.5 million MAX to Bidan.

      Does anyone realize where this is going???

       

    • This is the final step before Socialism. 

      This is what happened in Minnesota, I watched it all.  At 11:00 election night, Trump was ahead by 280,000 votes here in Minnesota. The next morning he was behind by 200,000 votes, even though the tabulating facility’s was “closed” over night. Sometime around 3:00 in the morning we had a massive ballot dump. This happened in about every state, not just the swing states.

    • Yes, I'm aware of all of the goings on the left vomited on us and has been doing so for years. I fought the good fight since the days of President Reagan, Rush Limbaugh, etc. This world is a social media    whore. Those controlling information are particularly hard to fight back against. 

    • Badgerman, I believe you speak accurately about this. I took Mary Kays quote to lightlight the problem:

      "You can't take the middle class every day average person expect them to be able to do something."

      At the federal level, no, you cannot. Nor were you ever supposed to in the sense you mean. But at the state and local levels Mary Kay,

      the average everyday person is royalty. Your grass roots servants are directly accountable to you on a regular basis!

      The argument that 'You can't fight City Hall' is a dissuader to actively participate in state and local politics.

      But in a patchwork quilt of state and local governments, each reflecting the Peoples intentions, the Federal government is 

      nessesarily changed in character by the holistic participation. Those that want unilateral despotic authority sabotage this process.

      Focusing economic, military, and political power in itself, promoting dependency on its redistribution of the vital nessesities for societies to live and thrive,

      these are the tools and methods of despots. Look how the District of Columbia is now compared to just 20 years ago. The despots even want statehood for it.
