Title: 10 Ways You Can Participate in Politics
Post by: TheRebelephant on January 06, 2018, 08:51:54 AM
Sometimes people want to participate in the political process but they just don't know how or they don't think they can. In this blog post, I give ten ways that you can participate in politics and change your community for the better!

I hope you found it valuable. If you have any suggestions or criticism, it would be greatly appreciated. I'm still very new at this whole blog thing.

When a campaign office opens in your area, walk in and volunteer to knock on doors, post signs and hand out leaflets.  Really, it's that simple.

open your wallet & contribute.
make calls via a phone bank.
Write your local paper and tout your support of the candidate of your choice.
Invite your candidate to a public event you're hosting, even a family event counts.
Post on social media, like this, and voice your support or reservations about the candidates.

These are all things Liberals use to influence fence-sitters and friends, etc.  Unfortunately, the MSM does not appreciate this kind of "democracy" - they consider it their duty to tell us how-to-vote.

I even read before I deleted it.
He's young, and bless his heart, he's actually doing something, but honestly, I wish he'd have consulted us first, because, in truth, his page sounds like it was funded by the Young Republicans club, a group of kids still believing the left-right paradigm of good and evil (Left and Right). when in fact, the good and evil resides within the GOP and brainlessly feeding them money only supports the evil side of the party.

Here's a cut from one page, a new years resolution.

"My goal for this year is to write and publish (at least) three blog posts per week. This may be challenging with school going on but definitely not impossible. Along with my blog posts, I also am going to create and upload two videos every week."

Volunteer to work the polling place. It is where voter fraud happens.

Very true.
Sadly, most fraud takes place in heavy Dim districts where it's a given, or via electronic measures, beyond the prying eyes of the honest.

Okay I admit now that chartreuse and brown do not go well together and my purple, green, orange and black plaid pumps caused some people to have seizures. I was trying to be sort of Gaelic avant garde
