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.
