Five Things You Can Do On Election Day to Help Defeat Barack Obama
Election Day is coming up — November 6th, 2012 — in about 24 days. That’s just a little over three weeks.
I’ve gotten quite a few emails from people telling me they want to help defeat Obama, but they don’t know what to do to help on Election Day and don’t have the time to figure it out; they asked me to do that work for them and give them suggestions on what they can do to really make Democrats lose BIG this year.
As always, I’m willing if you’re willing…so here are five things I’m telling my friends to do on Election Day to help defeat Obama. Now, everyone is different. Don’t think for a second I am asking you to do all of this…or any of it if you are someone whose schedule won’t accommodate it. Maybe you have better ideas that work for you. I ask you to share those in comments so we can all consider them. I’ve ranked these from easiest to most confrontational, knowing there are varying degrees of comfort out there in terms of what people are able to do. Don’t feel bad if you’re someone who doesn’t like going out in public and talking to strangers about the election or if you’re not up to taking a camera and documenting voter fraud or intimidation efforts…that’s not for everyone, and you can play a part in defeating Obama that meets your comfort level for activism. There is a role for everyone!
This is what I am telling my personal friends to do to make a difference in these remaining three weeks. You can do these things too…or not…but it would be great if you could think of something to do on Election Day to make life harder on Democrats. Reading political sites is great, but it doesn’t provide any action against the Left…it does not impact others. That requires taking another step and getting the information you read online out to people who don’t frequent political sites and who might instead get all their information from the tee-vee (which we all know lies to people).
5. Spread the word to all your contacts that the tee-vee and newspapers can’t be trusted and that they are deliberately misreporting the news to help Barack Obama; point out specifically that everything MSNBC and CNN says are flat-out lies (and remind them that not even FOX can be trusted all the time because there are people working there who want Obama to win as well). This is a big generational-gap thing but I’ve noticed that people over 40 still believe the tee-vee tells them the truth and that it’s not a waste of time or money subscribing to the local newspaper. If I had to give one really good piece of advice to a friend, it would be to cancel the local newspaper delivery TODAY if he or she is still getting that bird-cage-liner and fish-wrapper thrown onto their doorstep each morning. ALL US newspapers lie. They are ALL controlled by lefties who push the Democrats’ talking points onto you. Stop sending these people your hard-earned money and giving Democrats free propaganda service. Why not replace the newspaper with reading your “news” online. There are some great websites that provide good information. Many of them are located in the LINKS sidebar right here on this site. If you must have the coupons or funnies that come with the Sunday paper, but one…take out the sections you need…and throw the rest of it out. Don’t even look at it.
This is hard for a lot of people who are used to reading the paper, but trust me: you will be so much happier if you avoid the daily dose of Democrat propaganda that’s being delivered to your doorstep. Some people claim they like to keep an eye on the lies that are being put out there, but that’s like saying you enjoy keeping barrels of toxic waste in the house so you can “keep an eye on radiation poisoning”. Reading the newspaper every day exposes you to the Left’s talking points and often depresses and demoralizes a lot of people. Why subject yourself to this? Try canceling the paper and telling the person you talk to on the phone that you made this decision because you just couldn’t take the lies, propaganda, and Leftist talking points anymore and you will not financially support the Ministry of Truth any longer.
Now, the tee-vee is harder to remove from your life. I did it back in 2009, and it was tough. I won’t pretend it wasn’t. I grew up on tee-vee in the 80s and 90s and I never thought I’d eliminate it from my life completely. Until the 2008 election, I’d always have either CNN or MSNBC on in the house just for company’s sake; I enjoyed having the little update of “news” provide background noise to whatever I was doing at home. But none of the news channels are actually giving you unbiased news, which is what I realized in 2008 when I saw them all swing wildly into propaganda mode for Barack Obama. I think most people reading this understand that MSNBC is really just the TV arm of the Democrat Party at this point and should be listed as a political activism channel that supports the Left. CNN is not as bad, but is close, and no longer delivers news either but provides political opinion that generally skews 90% to the Left. FOX News is fun sometimes, I admit, but it has too many people masquerading as conservatives who really want Barack Obama to win. Some of that last bit is because what Obama’s doing to America provides FOX easy coverage since it’s not all that hard to write stories each day blasting something terrible he’s done; it’s a lot more work for conservative “reporters” when a Republican is in the White House so I think many people at FOX have a vested interest in secretly hoping Obama wins so that they have another four years of easily-obtained content.
I say turn all of them off. Trust me, if something important happens on any news program you will hear about it online. Breitbart.com and Mediaite.com do a great job of covering everything that’s happening on the tee-vee. There’s no need to watch this stuff yourself 24/7. You can see the important stuff in YouTube clips later and spare yourself the grief of having to watch this stuff live.
Get the cable and save yourself some serious cash each month. Try online options like Hulu, Netflix, or Amazon Instant Video to watch shows you enjoy without paying a monthly cable bill. Almost all shows that air on cable channels besides HBO or Showtime are available on Amazon.com the day after they premiered on the tee-vee. I don’t miss a single program I need to see because I don’t have cable…the online options cover it all.
If you really want to hurt the Left in a way that’s non confrontational on your part, the very best thing you can do is to stop your newspaper delivery and cancel your cable tee-vee. Not only will you be costing the Ministry of Truth money that they’ll lose in revenue from you, but you’ll also eliminate your household’s exposure to the Left’s propaganda. Think about the impact THAT will have. If you’re not being exposed to the toxic propaganda then you also won’t expose other people to it through your conversations (or telephone calls, like the ones my boyfriend’s mother CarolAnne makes to our apartment to repeat the lies she hears on the tee-vee or reads in the paper).
4. Stop spreading any of the Doom Reports you see pushed by the Left or the Tokyo Roses in conservative ranks about “Obama winning this!”.
This is another thing I’m asking people to do that costs nothing but might involve breaking some bad habits on your part. Are you someone who repeats the lies that you hear or see in the “news”? Do you call up friends and spread this garbage, or do you force your family members to listen to you go on about how worried you are or how depressed you’ve become because you’ve been sitting in front of the tee-vee soaking up radioactive Doom Reports all day and now you “need to vent”? Are you selfish like this and become a burden to your friends and family? If so, please stop today.
It’s a simple thing you can do that will make a big difference in this election. I’m not going to mince words here or sugarcoat this, but if you are someone who can’t help yourself and feel a need to spread Doom Reports to others then I think you have a problem that’s akin to alcoholism. That means you need to start by admitting you have a problem…and then taking steps to preventing yourself from engaging in destructive behavior anymore. Alcoholics can’t take a drink…and in your case I think you might not be able to watch the tee-vee or read the newspapers anymore…because you can’t control yourself when the Doom Reports start flowing. Do you know how alcoholics get drunk and embarrass their friends and family or go so wild with the booze that they need to be cared for, put into a cab, and babied until they sober up? Have you ever thought about how you might behave when you soak up all the Left’s propaganda in the media and then go around to everyone you know crying about how “We’re all doomed! Obama’s going to win! Someone please spend hours with me convincing me this is not true!”.
It’s time to end this behavior if you’re someone who engages in it. If you can’t control yourself after watching “the news” then how is that any different from an alcoholic who can’t be trusted with a bottle?
Before you blast out an email, share a Facebook link, call your friends to tell them something, or post something negative online…why not think about what the effect of what you’re doing will have on others. Is what you are doing going to pump people up to vote and show them that, yes, Barack Obama is going to lose and so we must make his loss as big as possible? If the answer is yes, then by all means do it.
But, if what you are about to say or do is something Democrats WANT you to spread to others…then why on Earth are you going to help them by doing that?
Think before you drink…and think before you spread any stink. Do. Not. Help. Democrats. EVER. Don’t be their messenger service or rebroadcasters. Don’t legitimize the Left’s propaganda by spreading it to your friends and family. Never, ever spread to others anything that fosters a belief that “Obama is winning this!”. Just don’t do it!
3. Canvass your neighborhood and talk to the people who live around you and get them to think about what they really think of Obama, Biden, Romney, and Ryan. This is hard for a lot of people because talking to strangers is tough. A good way to do it is to just take a clipboard and a sheet of paper and set out to knock on doors and ask people if they have time for a quick survey. Say you are doing it for a research project related to the election (which is true). Then just ask them for the first word they think of when they hear the names Obama, Romney, Biden, or Ryan.
Write down their answers on the paper….in four columns (one for each name). You’d be amazed at what people will tell you just by giving those answers regarding word association. You don’t even have to tell them who you are supporting. You don’t have to talk politics at all. Just having them think about each name and a word that describes the person is enough to make them think about the election. Nine times out of ten they’ll want to know what other people said. I like to let them know that other people think Obama is “incompetent” or “hiding something” or “disappointing” too…or that Romney is also “successful” or “a good businessman”…while Biden is “bumbling” or “a cranky old man” and Ryan is “serious”, “prepared”, or “hot”.
This is a very non-confrontational way to canvass. I usually say I am a student working on a study for an assignment. Which is not untrue because I am student of life and I am studying the election. I’m studying it online, and my research is helping me understand the election.
Not everyone is comfortable doing this. Justin HATES knocking on doors with me but my friend Megan Fox likes it and so does my friend Althea and her kids. So I have different activities I can do with different people that I think impacts the election in different ways…some subtle, others in-your-face. Speaking of which…
2. Take your digital camera/phone/video camera with you when you vote and be prepared to film anyone outside intimidating people or anything odd that happens there. It’s not okay in most places to film inside the voting location because you are not allowed to get photos/video of people actually voting. BUT you are certainly permitted to film outside and on your way into the building. If you see anyone electioneering at the location, film them and then call the police and report it. This is a matter for 911 if you see it happening because 911 is for calling the police to be present on the scene for something. If you see electioneering happening inside a polling place or you see anyone intimidating voters, the cops need to be there to stop it. Demand to file a police report on the matter, too, so there is a record of this happening. And make sure you get it on video.
I’m 35 and taking pictures/video of things is hard for me to remember because this sort of thing was always so rare to do for the majority of my life. Cameras were bulky and we only took them with us on vacations…so it doesn’t immediately occur to me that there’s a camera built into my cell phone. When something’s happening, my adrenaline starts pumping and I more likely than not will confront someone and usually start yelling for them to stop. I’m trying to get Justin used to immediately whipping out his phone to film as I handle the confrontation part…but even at 25 he’s still slow on the draw and generally just stands there unable to believe whatever’s happening is really happening. I think this is human nature for my generation and even people as young as Justin. But, in the future, people will be more attuned to this and will have the cameras out immediately. I’m just not there yet.
If I was you, I’d have the camera out filming from the moment I got of my car at the polling place (or from the moment I left the house if I walked there). Film your entire walk into the place, just in case. You can always delete it later if you don’t need the video because nothing happened. When you get to the doors to enter the polling place, put the camera phone in your pocket but I would have it running anyway. You never know…someone might says something that’s inappropriate that you’d then have on film. If they do, make them repeat it so you can get that on tape. Then, after you are done voting and you are leaving take the camera out again in case there’s intimidation or electioneering going on outside on your way out. You never know what you will catch.
If you get something on tape that’s intimidation or electioneering related, call the cops, then call the Board of Elections for your county, then demand to file a formal complaint on it, and then go home and upload the video to YouTube and make sure everyone you know (including us) knows about it. Document, document, document and then spread the word.
You just need to make sure you don’t film anyone actually voting inside the polling place because that’s against the law in most states…but recording audio inside a polling place is not illegal in Illinois (just no capturing people actually voting on visual film). If you see anything strange and unusual or suspicious, tape it! And then complain about it to the officials in the polling place, the cops, and the Board of Elections.
1. Poll Watching. I know this is the most time-requiring and confrontational thing you can do on Election Day, but it’s very important for those who are able to do it. Can you take a vacation day on November 6th and spend it volunteering as a poll watcher where you live? This is different from being an Election Judge who is in charge of the polling place (but those are needed too). They might have all the election judges they need where you live, but I doubt they have enough poll watchers. You need to contact your local Republican Party and be persistent in the notion that you will be a poll watcher on Election Day. Now, some GOP groups are less helpful than others because some of them are little cliques that don’t like outsiders (and some are just incompetent). That’s the reality of the world we live in. If you encounter resistance from them or the incompetence results in them not calling you back then you can try the Board of Elections in your county to see what your local laws allow in terms of poll watching. I’m not going to say where I’m going to be on Election Day because I want to catch voter fraud and intimidation on film as it happens, but Justin and I (and possibly my friend Megan Fox too) are going to be driving around Chicago to spots where union thugs have been spotted in the past engaging in voter intimidation efforts.
I want to get these people’s faces on film so that starting November 7th I can put it all online to identify these people and find out who pays them to do this every election here in Chicago. These are union thugs who stand outside the polling places here and intimidate people as they’re going inside to vote, warning them that if they vote ‘the wrong way’ that the union will know and there will be consequences. It’s time this is stopped…so I’ve picked out about 10 polling places that we’re going to monitor on the ground here in Chicago for any of these thugs. If I find them, I am going to film them while Justin calls the cops on his phone and we will file formal complaints with the Board of Elections about it and demand someone is sent immediately to stop these voter intimidation efforts.
If you don’t want to become an official poll watcher, you can do something similar where you live. Just find the polling locations online and keep driving around to see what is happening. If you see thugs outside intimidating people, call the cops, get them on film, and put it on YouTube. Send us the link and we’ll make sure people know about it. You don’t have to confront these people or say a word to them: let the cops do that.
Between now and election day, make sure you look up the direct numbers for the Board of Election in your county…but if you can’t find those and you have a problem on November 6th, be sure to call 311 and tell the operator you are witnessing voter intimidation and you need to speak to the Board of Elections immediately. Ask to file a formal complaint and demand that an investigator be dispatched immediately to rectify what’s going on.
Don’t let Democrats steal this election through intimidation and union thuggery!
Everyone has a unique skill set. Everyone has personal likes and dislikes. But everyone reading this can play an important part in this election on YOUR own terms.
What are some things YOU would be comfortable doing between now and election day?

- Stay on topic of the article ("This is OT, but..." = bad!)
- I will STING if you troll, spam, bait, swear or attack someone
Kick them lefties to the curb.
I’m too nice. I never realized that the union would intimidate people. I live in an area where everyone knows everyone – mostly because they all belong to the same union, working at the Ford assembly plants, etc. Maybe that’s why there are no Romney signs up because they all know where each other lives too.
I am going to take your suggestion and call on Monday to see if I can help.
Thank you Kevin for all you are doing. My education has expanded so greatly
Two more items: Jesus said certain demons could only be cast out by prayer and fasting
It looks like there is some poll watching needed in Connecticut:
Connecticut Dem Jokes About Corruption
Ugh. One thing poll watchers may want to look for is the counting of the ballots midday. They should only be counted at the end. It happened in midday in my small town and then the Dems got on the phone and called people. NO BALLOT COUNTS UNTIL THE END!!!
In New York, no matter when you go to vote, you know what number you are. So they are counting you all day. I had no idea they aren’t permitted to do this. They keep a little running total and give you a number. It’s happened at every polling place I voted in New York for as long as I’ve been voting.
Kevin, I wish I had 50% of your energy !
I am in Florida and will be a poll watcher, and I must say that things are looking good here, although I will wait until the fat lady sings.
I suggest everyone for Romney wear RED on election day. Florida has “junked up” the ballots, Loads of stuff on them..and predictions are that the lines may be 3 hours long on election day. I am going to vote early and hope my ballot is safeguarded..I trust no one anymore.
Amen, Sarah. Praying is something we can all do starting now.
A quick ground report from southern ct … Our area and state are probably going to go the same old way as usual, but … I had a half hour to kill today and spent it driving local neighborhoods. Something I saw in mixed neighborhoods that would not have been there even a year should … Neighboring yards sporting o signs next to RR sign house. It all seemed bold and oddly harmonious. All it really means, though, is that these neighbors are realizing there is more than one way to vote on the 6th. There is no shame or fear from RR supporters right now. The Phoenix rises and gets ready to flex her wings.
I took a drive into Litchfield hills. R&R signs are popping up all over the place. Have still only seen one O sign.
My wife just took a big pot of acorn squash soup down to the R/R Victory office for the volunteers who are out canvassing in the cold today.
1. Praying
2. Donating. I can’t donate much, but I’m giving small donations to state and national candidates. I’m in Kansas which is 100% sure to go to Romney (plus our four districts probably will go R and we have no Senate race this year) so this is a way I feel I can try to make a difference in other “swing” areas and important national races elsewhere. But I don’t forget that state and local politics are really important too, and I’ve donated to my state Rep and intend to donate in a few other state races. In Kansas this year, all the interesting stuff is happening on a state and local level, and we have the potential to make a big difference in the state legislature.
3. Just generally trying to impress upon others the critical nature of this (and every) election, and researching every race, not just so I know who and what to vote for, but so I can share that info with others. The people I know best are already conservatives, but I just hope that when I say things in wider forums like Twitter or the politics & citizenship Sunday School class at church (where the pastor encourages people to “vote Biblical values” but meticulously avoids mentioning anyone by name, nor their records or the ways in which they have specifically violated Christian values, which IMO needs to be said, since mindbogglingly, there are cars in the parking lot with Obama stickers on them), the info might hit someone.
We would not have a Dem. Governor (Um Uh Malloy) here in CT if it were not for Dem. corruption in Bridgeport. In 2010 they supposedly ran out of ballots in Bridgeport and had to photocopy more. It was a complete mess. The Rep. lost the election by about 5K votes.
We are not unlike IL or PA, just on smaller and compact scale. Many parts of the state will vote red, but are cancelled out by the big cities Bridgeport, Hartford and New Haven. We also have lots of union folk here – state workers, teachers, SEIU, you name it – all voting Dem. and getting state hand outs left & right. Tough to be a Rep. here.
OMG, Kevin, Tactic #3 is LOL!
What I’m going to suggest is easy because people do it naturally anyway, and that is … complain. When you’re in the line at the grocery store or gas station or at work, grouse a bit about the level of prices, or taxes, or insurance costs, or how long your neighbor has been looking for work, etc. You don’t even have to mention politics. The reason this works is that the American people hold presidents accountable for bad economic conditions, and by doing a bit of complaining, you bring that awareness to the forefront of people’s minds.
Now, you don’t have to go on and on. I don’t like to complain much because I don’t like to dwell on the negative. But, a few comments here and there, said in a polite, slightly shocked, bemused and disappointed manner (“Man, I can’t believe it’s $15 more to fill up this week than last week!”) goes a long way. If you want to mention politics, you can do it obliquely or in a casual way (Hmm, I wonder if these are Obamacare costs starting to kick in?).
I’m in Texas and and I point out that Obama doesn’t like our state. By hindering our energy companies, he hinders good jobs here and high fuel costs everywhere. I point out that everything is higher because energy is higher. I point out that a half-empty restaurant is because people have to cut back so they can make it to work. I have to wonder if the Austin Democrats will support Obama as they, too, were hurt when TX was denied federal disaster status so we get get some help from Ft Hood and FEMA. I believe it was over 9,000 fires last year in the state, human lives were lost, 100s of homes lost, pets and livestock killed or lost, and I doubt those affected were all Republicans, but they might be now!
I have done this quite a bit. It helps open people up, too.
I always moan in the supermarket, it really is easy. Pick up toilet paper, the rolls have pretty much been cut in half, Angel Soft would ot last a day in most families. “OMG, did you see this”? Go to the checkout line that is the longest and complain the entire time. People freak when it is right in front of them. The gas station is another great place to do this, and it is so easy, you don’t have to bring up politics at all.
Kevin,
The Romney campaign is training poll watchers and have a cutting edge electronic app that is revolutionizing the election process!!! All you have to do is go to http://www.mittromney.com and click on “in your community”. Find your state and click on it. Fill out the volunteer form. Or contact Dan Centinello at Dan Centinello send him an email and tell him you want to be a poll watcher. This is a game changer and they need as many polls/precincts covered as humanly possible.
Yes I signed up and went through the training process. The Romney campaign is putting us everywhere in Ohio but they desperately need MORE poll watchers in Cuyahoga County (Cleveland) where I am.
Red an, you must have seen the drudge run vid today revealing bridge port “will get the votes, even if it takes a few extra days?”. I hope something is done to prevent that. It’s so wrong. It sounds like these shenanigans are usually just ignored. I’m naive I suppose but this is shocking and upsetting to me.
I just checked it out. Thanks for the heads up. Pretty amazing these Dems. Bridgeport is our Chicago, our Philadelphia.
Over 40? Make that over 60. I’m 49, and ditched the Propaganda Press as a news source in the mid-90s.
The reason I picked 40 was that I’m 35 and still feel nostalgic about the paper. We did not have the Internet until I went to college, so in high school I would still read the paper every day. In college, my major (political science) required me to have a subscription to the NY Times as part of my course fees. So I had to read that every day for class. It was pure brainwashing on the part of the professors.
Justin’s 25 and he doesn’t have any vestigial connection to newspapers. His parents didn’t get them delivered when he was in high school. By then, his parents were reading the Internet instead.
So I’m betting that people just a little older than me might have trouble letting go of the newspaper. It’s been a part of their lives for too long, maybe.
There are exceptions, Kevin! My husband and I are in our 60′s and we don’t read the paper, don’t waste $ on subscribing, and it drives us NUTS that his parents (90′s) read the paper every day! She (my mother in law) is Republican, and he (father in law) is Democrat! We do watch FOX news, but beginning to not trust it. Thinking about ditching the Cable, especially after reading your article–thanks for the great ideas and information.
I’m a brand new reader, maybe 2 days ago read your open letter to Romney, which is very nice–great job!
I forgot to mention — my husband and I are Poll Workers in CA, San Diego east county. Looking at the list of voters–Gag–mostly Dems. At primary election, kids at this school wanted to “vote for Obama!” Will be interesting to see if we have poll watchers, but we’ll be too busy to check that out, and need to save our energy–be there 5:30 AM till after 9 PM when we’re done cleaning up and drive our ballots to headquarters.
Virginia, especially Fairfax County, has a need for Republican poll watchers and Election Officers.
Fairfax AKA Faisal Virginia is lousy with Muslims. Being horse country there unfortunately are some very rich republicans who brown nose the Muslim power structure in Fairfax and Middleburg VA because of money and horse shit.
Here’s an idea. I keep a package of post it’s and a sharpie with me. When I fill up the car with gas I leave one on the pump that says “Obama! Saving the economy one gallon at a time! Also have many other short sayings and leave them at grocery stores as well. It feels so good.
I know ttis is off topic, but just gave my future son in law a Holister furry hoodie, damn I think the guy may be gay, not that that’s a bad thing unless you’re Jess. Wish I had had better gaydar! I originally bought the damn thing at my daughters insistence., oh well!
Hey Im 44 I don’t watch the TeeVee for news LOL! I do watch FOX will watch FOX on election morning while sipping a mimosa and getting my stogie out and ready to smoke when Obama makes his concession speech. (God willing and the creek don’t rise)
Poll watching is good. A friend of mine had a blast when they elected Scott Brown in MA and she drove up from New York to help. Also if you hear that Romney/Ryan need help in a state like VA, PA, OH, WI, MI, try and do a car trip, and then do pricinct walks. I ran into a lot of Texans doing pricinct walks in Florida in 08.
Go to your local GOP HQ and dig in. If they need help with anything be there for them. If everyone pitches in then we can win this. The whole thing now is to get out the vote.
Guys if they need pricinct walkers in Minnesota do it..Mitt’s with in four there…Bidens going up to do a rally…

May I also suggest, consider being a poll greeter. In my state, judicial elections are non-partisan so the job of the greeter is to hand out palm cards of the conservative judges. The Dems do the same thing with the Lefties. Often people skip the judicial races because they aren’t identified by R or D. We all know how dangerous the courts can be so every race matters. Poll greeters are important and it is an easy thing to do, you can commit to the hours that best fit your schedule.
Another thing you can do is find out in advance if anyone needs a ride to the polls, it would be a nice project to do through local civic / church organizations to offer seniors, veterans, etc a ride on Election Day.
Lastly, if you are in a safe conservative district / state, many campaigns have the ability for you to make calls from home. Help someong like Mia Love, Josh Mandel, etc.
Love lots of the ideas! Thanks for the info on poll watchers at the RR site.
Was telling hubby the other day that ads which begin, “In this economy…” are making an impact in peoples’ minds, well the un-brainwashed without obama phones. It’s easy to make a fast remark wherever you are – grocery store, gas station, church where I go insane when I see zippy stickers (Catholic).
I want to cover them up with a, “What the H are you thinking sticker,” but that’s just me.
Keep working, talking and walking your precincts.
We must outvote and overcome their margin of fraud.
If I may add one to the list. You can volunteer to drive anyone without transportation to the polls. This can be done by contacting your local GOP office.
I met Christian Adams at a republican lawyers of Philadelphia event. He is the former Department of Justice attorney who resigned because of Eric the traitor Holder’s refusal to prosecute The New Black Panther Party for their most blantant voter intimidation at a Philadelphia polling station on the campus of Temple University.
Unfortunately many young students at Temple are indoctrinated with white guilt and are even taught that The Black Panter movement was great. In any case Mr. Adams spoke to me personally for several minutes and signed his book with a very kind note of inspiration to me. I told him I had volunteered for the HRC campaign (God forgive me) and that there was much voter intimidation of Hillary supporters. He was very aware of that. He spoke to the audience and expressed that Philadelphia was a hot bed for voter fraud infavor of the democrats. He also urged us to become poll watchers in Philly because the dems would surely be up to their old tricks. Poll watching in Philly in areas that will surely go to Obama can be a bit scary. But I will try to watch the polls in Montgomery County where surprisingly enough many Jewish people who’s only real religion is liberalism, still support Obama. Pennsylvania is definitly in play for Romney. If anyone hear lives in PA, please consider registering as a poll watcher or just bring a camera and your car to a poll.
BTW
Christian Adams book is called Injustice. I strongly recommend it.
To support alternative media, I have a subscription to TheBlaze TV (Glenn Beck’s channel) and watch that instead of CNN/MSNBC/FOX. They are doing good stuff there. I also like that Obamabots heads will explode when they hear about Glenn Beck’s success.
Looove TheBlaze!
Great post Kevin! You’ve motivated me to get back in the game. I’m going to take some food to the local Romney campaign office tomorrow and see what kind of help is needed.
By the way, I am still seeing close to zero Obama bumper stickers in my corner of SE VA. In 2008, they were wall to wall!
I saw a sign yesterday as I was going to visit my sister that I hadn’t seen before. The yard had Romney/Ryan signs, Murdock and Mike Pence….Then it had a large bright yellow sign that said, “WE CAN’T WAIT TO VOTE!”
I read a study that showed when people are exposed American flags, they tend to vote Republican. I’m trying to find the article but it wouldn’t hurt to put out a flag or consider a flag sticker for the car.
Found it:
US Flag primes voters towards Republican viewpoints.

Maybe we could create a master list of links to articles so that when we are phoning people or talking to them, we can access the articles that prove our point.
Example for rebuttals to “Mitt hates the poor.”
Mitt personally paid for 7000 pints of milk a week for 2 years for a veteran’s home.
Mitt paid for the college educations of two paralyzed children. etc…
We could come up with lists of provocative questions like:
Why do you think Mitt Romney gave more to charity than Obama, Biden, and Ryan combined?
Why do you think Mitt Romney’s students in MA were rated number one in the US?
Why do most people oppose partial birth abortion, and why does Obama support it? (Answer: It’s barbaric, and Obama is a barbarian.)
Why has family income gone down these last 4 years?
Why have fuel prices doubled under Obama?
It gives you the chance to listen to people’s rationale for why they think these things are happening, giving you the perfect opening to explain why they are really happening. Most answers are rotten Obama policies, and Republican policies are proven to work.
I read once that what really sells people on a product or person is the enthusiasm and knowledge of the salesman. So the customer may not have faith in the product, or completely understand it, but he develops faith in the salesman.
One thing no one else has mentioned-if you know someone, an elderly neighbor, family member, someone you go to church with, who is just as fed up with Obama, but this person doesn’t normally get out to vote, volunteer to take them so they can. There are quite a few older folks that are widowed or alone and not really able to drive themselves or get around too easily.
I am working on project ORCHE in Boston at Mitt’s campaign headquarters. It will be a safety check to ensure honest voting is happening in our battleground states.
We need all the help we can get and these tips are excellent.
We need people to be our eyes and ears at the polls, pls. volunteer if you live in any of the battleground states.
You can go to Romney website and type in project orche. You will be background checked but this is the most important election of our lifetime.
If Obama wins, our country is transformed forever!
We must get Mitt Romney in as our 45th President and he will get this country back on track, and he will work within our U.S. Consitiution and secure our freedom and liberties.
The average American hasn’t a CLUE how much of our tax money Obama has sent down Muslim sh*t holes while he plans to slash the military, STOLE 716 BILLION FROM MEDICARE and threatened towithold senior’s social security checks!

Obamas 2009 Supplemental Appropriations for Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Pandemic Flu was revised and passed by the full committee.
It gives billions http://creepingsharia.wordpress.com/2009/05/1 …
of U.S. taxpayer dollars to countries and entities that support Sharia law and/or harbor, hide and support those who want to destroy the U.S. and our allies.

Obama gives your tax dollars to rebuild Muslim mosques around the world
http://canadafreepress.com/index.php/article/ …#
ACCORDING TO THE ASSOCIATED PRESS, THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION WILL GIVE AWAY NEARLY $6 MILLION OF AMERICAN TAX DOLLARS TO RESTORE 63 HISTORIC AND CULTURAL SITES, INCLUDING ISLAMIC MOSQUES AND MINARETS, IN 55 NATIONS. See the State Department document here.

And THAT’S just the tip of the iceberg.
THIS will blow your mind!!

They should have 2010 up, but they don’t. That’s where you’ll find Obama’s largesse towards Muslim countries really go off the charts.

Here’s a fun #6 for all of you who run in mostly-lefty circles: concern-troll or purity-troll your friends and loved ones about Obama’s failure to close Guantanamo, drone attacks, war in Libya, the TSA, “compromising” with the GOP or being insufficiently aggressive in promoting his agenda, failing to create single-payer healthcare, etc. and advocate either voting for Jill Stein, Gary Johnson, or not voting at all. The leftists aren’t going to vote for Romney no matter what, but they’re not excited about Obama, and in many cases are deeply disappointed in him, although not for the same reasons we are. So feed the disappointment, and depress Obama’s votes!
The other day I was reading an article out of Chicago, about Jesse Jackson, Jr.
It was about an investigation into his finances.
One person left a comment that floored me: this person stated that, so what if he stole money, or cheated on his tax forms, he was the best politician around and he needs to be President, and he should be allowed to keep the money……I guess stealing is ok in the Left’s playbook!
I also spoke with a Wal-mart greeter….an older woman that said she had voted for Obama. She stated that Romney doesn’t care about 47% of our citizens!!
I told her what he was talking about, and that Obama’s campaign had also said they were giving up on trying to get votes from the white, male, blue collar worker.
What did she say…..”I guess I just won’t vote this year!”
What has happened to our society, so many think that nothing is important anymore, not even trying to return our Country to prosperity!!!!
