What Can I Do?

One of the most common and frustrating questions about how to reverse 100 years of Progressive attacks against the U.S. Constitution is "What Can I Do?" Many people feel powerless. Some even say "I Don't Vote Because It Doesn't Make Any Difference," or simply "My Vote Doesn't Count."

Well, if there is anything that the Tea Party movement has shown is that everybody's vote and everybody's opinion does count, and when you sit on your couch and don't say anything the Progressives, who represent the minority (<20%) in this country, gradually erode away your God given inalienable rights.

So, what can you do? The Tea Party Patriots make the following recommendations (slightly edited to be more generalized):

1. Hold rallies and vigils in very public places and try to get as much media as you can
2. Write letters to the editors of local newspapers.*
3. Write articles on your own blogs and comment on other blogs, especially those that seek to propagandize the Progressive agenda
4. Call, email, and fax Congress.*
5. Post the facts on your Facebook pages and Twitter accounts.*
6. Respond through press releases to local media.
7. Form your own rapid response team to combat the Obama and Progressive machines.
8. Most Democrats like to trot out personal, anecdotal stories about how their "crisis-du jour" will hurt a specific person, so tell your story about how Obama and the Progressive movement will hurt you.
9. Take the time to confirm and double check the facts and arguments.*
10. Use your network and the experience you gained from working for campaigns to reach out to people in your area - i.e. schedule phone banks, door belling, sign waving - basically, instead of working to educate your neighbors about a candidate, work to educate your neighbors about the dangers of the Obama and Progressive agenda.

*I find these (2, 4, 5, and 9) to be something anyone can do.

In addition:

• make sure to vote in Primaries and Elections, and badger your friends and acquaintances into voting. Make sure they know how important their vote is, and point to the 2010 election to drive home your point.
• Get involved in something, whether its a Tea Party, the local school board, county or state issues and election, national elections, whatever, just get involved.
• Know what is going on in your local community.
