It will require the sacrifice of our time and treasure. I am willing and able, and more than ready. I will have some basic organization set up by the weekend after Easter. Keep in touch, and keep touching the lives around you. WE WILL WIN!!!!!

Thier forsight was amazing. Besides, it would be way easier to just take over the republican party and return it to conservatism. There arent any left in that party with any backbone. Ronald Reagan is spinning in his grave at what it has become. Look at the effectiveness of the third parties that have come about since Ross Perot. Or the lack there of. We need leaders not politicians playing a game with Our government. Read my two post below.

I will study on this and pray to see which way I will go, but I will go. I cannot sit back a complain but take no action any longer. I encourage all here to take similar action. Find a place to serve and lets replace them all. The platform I offer is very simple: First the replacement of the politicians with leaders. We deserve better than politicians. "In the absence of leadership, men will follow anything" Next: Term limits for all elected officials to break the cycle of power. Max two terms for the House and one for the Senate. Next: Campaign finance reform so that ONLY registered AMERICAN VOTERS can contribute, with limitation so the wealthy do not overthrow the election. Corporations can't vote, Unions can't vote, Special interest groups can't vote, they should not be allowed to contribute in exchange for influence. Next: A flat tax. tax the dollar not the citizen. EVERYONE pays the same percentage, but everyone pays. If you want to be Free, You have to be Equal. If WE are all equal, there are NO Minorities.

The plan: Lets completely replace them who are supposed to be representing US. If We The People will band together with the common purpose of completely replacing the U.S. House and 1/3 of the U.S. Senate in a single election, we will take a great first step in getting our country back. This requires common men and women willing to serve to become active with an army of volunteers behind them. It requires the use of the internet to spread the word, using vehicles like Facebook, You tube, e-mail and the like. The mainstream media will fight tooth and nail to stop us from haveing our voices heard, as will the two parties. But we surround them. We are many more than you or I know, and our numbers are growing daily. Glen Beck has started this site for us to congregate and formulate our thoughts into actionable plans. I, for one, will lead or even follow the right choice of leaders, but I will not move out of the way. I dissassociated myself with the Republicans when they failed to lead. Now is the time for action and not just words. I am planning a run for either congress from the 7th district of the state of Georgia, or the open Senate seat in 2010.

Along with the entire House of non-Representatives. Lets join together in the effort to completely replace the House and 1/3 of the Senate in a single election.

It is all chopped up. I would welcome thier help where ever they are.

But for here: it is completely legal to vote someone out of office. That is the way to completely replace the career politicians. Everyone I talk to agrees that they need to go. I travel quite a bit and cover the U.S., Mexico, and Canada. I speak to folks everywhere. I constantly encourage others to make a difference where they are at. I have seen results in several places. But if We the People are to really get our country back from the politicians, we have to stand up and stand together and throw the bums out. BUT, we need leaders to replace them. I am willing to do my part. I will not complain without a solution to the complaint. But I am only one man. I need you to stand with me and convince others to do the same. I have a plan. It is not perfect, but it is a plan and requires action. The time you spend posting blogs can be put to good use. When we band together we win. STAND UP AMERICA!!!!!! IT is time for the revolution to begin. It begins with ME.

I will run for elective office in 2010 as a U.S. Congressman from the 7th district in the state of Georgia. I encourage all 912er's to find a place to serve. I further vow to inspire all who will listen to help me by completely replacing the U.S. House of Representatives and 1/3 of the U.S. Senate in a single election. This is the only way I can see us getting our country back. I used to be a republican until they caved on one of the most important issues in the "Contract with America", namely Term Limits. Term limits will break this cycle of power for the career politicians and enable the common citizen the true power of change. I am a proud conservative, a proud Christian, and a proud American Citizen, and I will not appologize to anyone for it. I love my country. I have served in the military for 12 years. I am still willing to fight and die for it's values and it's people. I am an Independent American Citizen and I will serve no party, only my fellow citizens. Stand with me, Stand UP AMERICA. Stand up and LEAD!!!!!!

Join me in the effort to completely replace the U.S. House of non-representatives and 1/3 of the U.S. Senate in a single election. Then and only then will we get our voices heard and be represented again. Read my blog and take action. Stand up and lead Americans!!!!

This would require a massive grass roots organization like say The 912 project. Once replaced, three simple changes enacted by the new representatives. 1- Campaign finance reform so that ONLY registered American voters can contribute with limitatations so the welthy (George Soros) don't overthrow the election. 2- Term Limits for all elected officials to break the cycle of power. 3-A flat tax, so that all citizens pay the same percentage of income. We all have an equal responsibility for funding the government. If you want to be free, you have to be equal. If we are all equal, there are no minorities.
