HOW DO “WE THE PEOPLE” GET REAL REPRESENTATION IN CONGRESS?
by Tim C.
(Mar. 8, 2011) — Politicians do not want you to know they cannot solve the problems in Washington. They know it, and they hope you won’t figure it out.
Politicians cannot make the changes that are required to turn things around. They cannot balance the budget. They don’t even talk about repaying the $15 trillion we owe. We can bang our heads against a brick wall again and again, and it will always hurt. We can send politicians to Washington election after election, and they will always fail. Or we can tell them to Get Out Of Our House – our House of Representatives.
Politicians have created a political catch-22 from which they cannot escape. The two-party system prevents them from doing what must be done. It forces them to make promises they cannot keep. If one party tries to cut spending, the “other” will use it against them. If we continue down this path, our nation will fail.
The solution is to elect leaders who do not care about getting re-elected, do not care about keeping their party in power, and do not care about rewarding those who funded their campaign. GO has a way to make this happen.
Consider this point carefully: politicians cannot afford to alienate voters. If they do, they cede power to the other party.
Politicians will not pass the 28th amendment that has been circulating for years because it would reduce their power. They will not pass a Fair or Flat tax because it eliminates their ability to reward special interest groups. They will not abolish organizations like the Department of Education because they do not want to alienate teacher unions. They will not seal the borders because they fear offending Hispanics. They will not reform campaign financing because they need millions of dollars to get re-elected. They will not cut spending because it will cost votes. Politicians cannot, will not, do what must be done.
Both parties claim spending cuts will harm the economy, but what has increased spending accomplished? Each party has championed massive bailouts, yet the situation has only deteriorated. The two sides are gridlocked over $60 billion of cuts in a $3.5 trillion budget; that’s like a dieter debating whether or not to eat the last two M&M’s in a one- pound bag!
Why do we keep sending the same people to Washington? Ninety-four per cent (94%) of the politicians in the U.S. House of Representatives will again be re-elected if we do not do something different. GO offers a solution.
Our members will be choosing a candidate to compete in each congressional district in 2012. For the first time ever, Americans will have an honest chance to replace the entrenched politicians. Please get everyone you can to join our movement and elect true representatives of the people who will do the work that must be done.
If you are willing to help lead the effort in your locale, please reply to this note with your state and district.
In my opinion it will take us all the way to the 2016 elections to really have maximum impact on Congress and the Presidency. We got part way there in 2010, the rest and some of the RINOs can possibly be ejected from Congress and a real President elected, and in 2014, the “slackers” in Congress can be dealt with….then give them 2 MORE years to get their act together(and get rid of more senate slackers) and start drilling oil, disposing residuals from Obamacare and the banker barons that are killing us financially. Then, maybe, with the help of Heaven, maybe we have a shot at digging ourselves out of the hole the democraps have put us in…..by intent, I may as well add.
As we see by the failed 2010 elections, none of the politicians are even willing to take the basic steps necessary to clean up corruption in Washington because the politicians profit from the corruption in DC.
The mandate of We the People could not have been clearer. We have demanded that BHO’s background be thoroughly investigated. 51% of Republican Primary voters do NOT believe that BHO was born in the US. A majority of all Americans have doubts about BHO’s place of birth. Yet, not one congressman has called for an investigation of whether BHO is constitutionally qualified to be President.
Clearly no political solution by our politicians will be forthcoming from this congress.
It is time for We the People to use the power of the 4th Branch of Government and issue State Grand Jury Indictments of all the politicians who are obstructing justice. Then, and only then, will the politicians take the demands of We the People seriously.

i’m happy to know someone else knows the truth. NO ONE, that is NO ONE cares that obamer is not the president of the USA. they just don’t care. He will be allowed to run again. Even if 12 states pass laws that require proof that a person is eligible to run for president, he will be above that law. The higher powers don’t care what you think. They will allow him in because he is easily manipulated and will do what they want. Most of this is a waste of time. He is not the president, but he will be allowed to continue in the office and will be allowed to be ” re-elected” even without proving his eligibility. I feel sick……..
I FEEL VERY SICK AS WELL!!!!!!!!
Well, Frustrated in Fla, welcome to the post-constitutional Brave New American Era.
Our government Overlords expect “We their Peasantry” to fall in line whether we agree with them or not, join Dorothy & Toto, as we all skip merrily together down the yellow brick road playing make believe President 0bumm0.

Ed’74, Don’t give up and accept what you say. We have the power to win. Through GO goooh.com, we can win in 2012 but everyone needs to help. Please go to the site and become a member. It’s free to join. We need critical mass to succeed so after you check it out and see the genius in the plan tell everyone you know.
Prove you have the fighting spirit to reclaim our country from the usurper. If we do nothing then we deserve what we get.
On a bright note – http://www.conservative.com has just realized that Obama is a fraud so now we have the oldest and largest conservative organization on our side. This can only be good news.
See you on the battlefield!

It is suicide for us to wait till 2012.
Even if Obama does not run again; Even if he runs again and loses. Everything he ever did to us will stay. Obamacare will stay. They found out lately there is at least $105 billion appropriated INSIDE the bill to keep it going at least 8 years. Terry Lakin will still languish in Leavenworth, and then be kicked out of the Military without pension. All the Czars will still be with us. All the Executive Orders will still be on the books. All the Stimulus plans will still be doling out the money. Ditto the Bailouts which are not working.
The ONLY thing that can save us is that Obama, Pelosi, Reid, and all the other people in 2008-9 who gave him a “pass” on Constitutional eligibility must be brought before Congress, or some court, perhaps a Military court because BHO is pretending to be Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces. Perhaps THERE he should be tried together with his attendants.
BUT IT MUST be done SOON. It must be done BEFORE this congress bothers with a budget. Before one more bill is conceived. NOW, NOW, NOW!!!!!!!!!
Call the new Congressmen you trust. Call the Speaker of the House. Call any of the New Senators you trust. Demand they move now or also be charged with misprision of Treason. Or misprision of their oath, or, whatever! DO IT NOW!!! CALL the, WRITE them, E-MAIL them. Don’t stop there. CALL, E-Mail, FAX or WRITE your Governor, if you trust him, or another governor you do trust. LAY ON the pressure HARD until you see the wheels start to turn, then don’t let up until WE HAVE AN INTERIM President!!! (One of us!!)
Aren’t we to ripen with age? What happened to the concept that as your grow, wisdom is acquired?
Aren’t we as individuals old enough by now to see through words of propaganda that attack us from all sides? Why is it so that there are still many people today that submit their souls to strangers that use words of enticement in exchange for an easy way?
LIFE IS NOT EASY! An easy life is not nature’s way! If you go to work each day and a portion of your pay goes towards the stay home pay of another…..you’re are an idiot! But you are exactly what this treason to the U.S. Constitution despot’s and dictator’s want!
The U.S. of America was founded on a sense of mutual truth that all of America’s Founding Fathers were all in agreement! Which resulted in the creation of THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA! WE ALL SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF OURSELVES! WE CAN DO BETTER THAN THIS!
It’s long past due that the Conservatively minded tax paying citizens of the UNITED STATES of AMERICA to GROUP TOGETHER! WE NEED TO HAVE A POW WOW!
WE THE PEOPLE MUST BE!
Young people vote.
The young people of today have been taught the “Progressive Way” (“If it feels right, do it.” There is no god, only your feelings. Don’t say anything that may “Tip over the Apple Cart”. Don’t say anything that may “Hurt” another person—even if it is true!)
They all need to be re-taught. They need to take, “How and Why to vote”, taught by Constitutional Conservative (elder) teachers. They need to pass the essay test on that before they are given a ballot. (but try to get THAT passed in any Congress!!)
There must be Nationwide, State Law by State Law, enforcement of Arizona’s Immigration law, now being attacked by the United States Atty. General and his crony, Barry Soetoro. Said law must be enforced by qualified and “WE the People TRUSTED Law Enforcement officers. Then, and only then shall we have only U.S. Citizens voting.
Then and only then can we have “people who grow wiser with age” stand in front of a group and actually be heard as, “Wise Men” (or “Wise Women”)!
