Dear Republican Party, its' members and all its' representing Public Servants,

Why not take the Republican Party's core foundational ORIGINS and for once, USE those to work in our favor, TODAY!?!

JUST WHAT ARE THE MAIN INGREDIENTS THAT MAKE UP THE ORIGINS OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY?

Here are four main origins of the GOP:
1) The actual creation of the Republican Party is ultimately what led to the freeing of the slaves, unifying this Nation, and introducing this Nations' very first de-segregation legislation into Legislative and Constitutional actuality.
2) The Republican Party was once all to well known for being the Party "For the People". Believe it or not, at one time, the members of the Republican Party consisted primarily of Blacks and Whites who were anti-slavery activists.
3) Republicans were the FIRST Political Party to introduce anti-segregation legislation. It was actually Republicans of the 1860's that are responsible for the passing of the first Civil Rights laws. **(It was the Democrats that repealed those Civil Rights Laws)**
4) The Republican party was created as an act of defiance against what activists denounced as the 'Slave Power' -- the powerful class of slaveholders who were working together to control the federal government and to spread slavery nationwide. **
(If we compare that to who we are faced with today--The "Slave Power", and those who seek to "more control of the Federal Government" are still, hands down..the Democrats. Yes. We, Republicans are still activists in defiance of the Democratic Party.)**

Republicans have been way to passive about this outrageous American fairytale that the Democrats have been telling since 1932.

Now, we just need to re-charge the activists that lie deep within us. We Republians, are without a doubt, down to our very cores, true,'Freedom activists'.

It is unfortunate that Liberals have seemed to taint the meaning of the word 'activist' and twist it around in such a way that makes one think we are discovered another mental disorder.....but...

LET ME BE CLEAR; it was actually the Republican Party that gave birth to true meaning of political activism...in the name of freedom, equality and Liberty....and with all that stated,

I now address the true membership of The Re-Energized Republican Party...

Dear Fellow Freedom Activists,I have started a "to-do" list --so that our Ol' Party can once again be GRAND...

~Let us re-energize the true passions that founded The Republican Party.

~Let us re-visit our roots, so we can re-charge our visions.

~Let us re-invite those who were once the sole primary purposes of this Party's original inspiration to perserve freedom & equality; African Americans.

~Let us re-frame the GOP messages in such a way that will ultimately reduce the distance that stands between the Party itself, and those 'common' men and women who have been misled and miseducated by The Democrat Party.

~Let us re-charge our policies and political efforts to bring them up to date. However, we must recognize and understand, being the tradionalists we really are, that by elevating and expanding and possibly even re-inventing some key GOP socia/political policies, that it will still be our core values & principals that fuel every political effort we take on.

May all this lead us and be our guiding strengh so that wecan RE-EMERGE, once again, authentically, as the GRAND Ol' Party.

Yours Truly,
The Political Sage

A Much to do about Nothing: Election 2008

Everytime I watch Obama speak--I wish he would just change his platform from Liberal nothingness to Conservative somethingness--because the man knows how to get the crowd & rally the crowd---

Partisan Politics aside, Obama has that 'aura' of hypnotic leadership and the symbolism of change is Obama's greatest tool--

Newt Gingrich was just on FOX News -and what he said is imperative--to paraphrase what Newt said, [ ...this 2008 election will be more about the nuance of change that a candidate can bring about-rather than ANY ideology--and McCain(if chosen as the GOP nominee) will need to make himself more than just the 'average' Republican to be able to even compete against an Obama type...]

Personally---this is why I really like Mike Huckabee--he could actually compete with that nuance of change. For starters-he does come off as a -not-so-average republican, and also has the same non-partisan message that Obama has. And I hate to say it-- if Newt is right-- the GOP really only has 2 choices of someone who could represent that change is either Huckabee or Ron Paul--crazy but this is the reality we find find ourselves within right now.

If we REALLY want to win--this Party REALLY needs to get past its own hang-ups and possibly set aside some of our locked in ideas of what Conservatism meant, means or should mean--and save this Country from Hellary or Obama--because no matter how much Obama makes people feel all fluffy inside ---his policies won't if he gets to be this Nation's Commander-in-Chief.

God Bless us all...
