10 Steps to Get Yourself Reelected President if You Are a Democrat

1. Garner a fawning press.
2. Promise to give away a bunch of “free” stuff.
3. Use the full power of Executive Branch to intimidate and silence your opposition.
4. Ensure no voter ID laws are in place prior to the election.
5. Persuade Democratic Governors to establish early voting to maximize chances of voter fraud in your favor.
6. Do everything possible to ensure mail-in ballots from military personnel are not received in time or counted.
7. Use any data base at your disposal to identify likely Democratic voters (such as the NSA Prism data base).
8. Use federally-funded groups such as ACORN and AmeriCorps to get those people registered to vote, and to the polls. Bribe potential voters with booze, cigarettes, or money if necessary.
9. Target these efforts in the big cities of major swing states (a win in a big city can swing the whole state). Remove Republican poll watchers from polls if possible as was done in Philadelphia. (Romney got zero votes in 52 districts in Philadelphia.)
10. Send lawyers to key areas to sue if steps one through nine are unsuccessful.

Easy-pizy.

Made in America

The Europeans who first came to America were highly motivated people, willing to risk their lives in search of liberty and opportunity. They had to be physically strong to endure the many travails associated with their journey.

Through the years other immigrants came to America. They had a drive that prompted them to uproot themselves and their families for the opportunities America offered for hard-working people from around the world.

Getting here was only part of the story. Succeeding here tested their mettle. It required them to sacrifice and work hard. I believe the “raw material” they brought to America was forged here into the people who made America the greatest country in the world. In essence, they were “made in America”.

Today, those bloodlines have thinned. Many Americans today feel they shouldn’t have to work hard. And it seems our new immigrants are more interested in what they can get or get away with.

This country is heading towards disaster but many people say it will be okay. They say that Americans have always prevailed through tough times. That may be true, but they were the Americans who were “made in America”, not the cheap knock-offs we have today.
