I say we start small.

I am starting to get excited... the more I talk to people now, the more they sound like Americans who's eyes are open to what is going on in Washington. I used to be a minority. At a party, I would be the right wing, nut-job that was way far off from the center. I actually had a friend read my facebook page and say, you were more on point then I thought. WOW, someone admitting that perhaps the view of limited government is more center then right. I am amazed. Then I thought to myself, that is how we do it!

Do you have any idea how many people I have spoken with, shown information to, emailed, called, etc. etc. Most people would call me a loon. But, now I have a person who is opening their eyes to what I see. That is huge in my book and that is how we win. We just keep informing, keep doing research, so we know what we are talking about. If someone asks me a question in a conversation and I don't know it; I don't try to wing it. I simply say, I am not sure; let me check it out. Then I check it out. Be the voice of reason in your community and you will be someone that people listen to and take your word as truth.

So I say, keep it up, I believe it is starting to work. People are beginning to wake up to what is going on. As evidence with the 9-12 Rally this weekend in Washington, hundreds of thousands - a million showed up to show Washington, no more Corruption! NO MORE LIES! Democrats, Republicans, Independents, etc, etc, all came together and said NO MORE! It was perhaps one of the biggest rally’s in US history. That is so exciting to me it is hard for me to sit still. It is happening, people are waking up and how did it start... well we all know it wasn't because of the media covering the corruption; it was because people like you and me spreading the word.

Keep it up, it is working!!!

The difference between a Democracy and Republic

Democracy: The main characteristic and unique feature of a Democracy is; Rule by Omnipotent Majority. In a Democracy, the Individual, and any group of Individuals(a minority), have no protection against the unrestricted power of The Majority. It is a case of Majority rules-over-Man.

Republic: Its function is to control The Majority firmly, as well as all others among the people, predominantly to protect The Individual’s God-given, unalienable rights and therefore the protection of the rights of all Minorities and the liberties of people in general. The definition of a Republic is: a constitutionally restricted government of the representative type, created by a written Constitution--adopted by the people and changeable (from its original meaning) by them only by its amendment; with its powers divided between three separate Branches: Executive, Legislative and Judicial. Here the term "the people" means, of course, the electorate.

Just wanted to post it, because some people I talk to and debate in conversation seem to think we are a Democracy, just wanted to make sure I cleared that up :-)
