3 Steps to ressurrecting the Republican Party

1. Act like Republicans first; Conservatives Second.

The voting public is caught up in popularity contests and reality television, not good, sound political reason. Republicans need to lay of the hard line social agenda, temporarily, and go back to the basics. Small government and individual responsibility come to mind. Focus on these two fundamentally Republican beliefs, convince the public of their value and watch the votes come rolling in. (A little inspiration )

Acting like Republicans first ensures that a conservative agenda, fiscal and social, can be achieved easily and with an agreeable voting public. Small government addresses welfare, wasteful spending and suppression of liberty. Individual Responsibility ends the blame game, the abortion debate and class warfare. Concentrate then conquer.

2. Speak the truth.

As Republicans, we use reason and logic to guide our decisions not the overwhelming emotional standard used by Democrats. When confronted with a social issue which tugs at the heart strings or a fiscal reality that might anger some, we dance around the issues in an attempt not to offend. Stand tall, speak the truth. The truth will always win in the end. The Democrats have become the party of “yes, you can have it and we will find someone to pay for it.” Unlike the delusional mind of a liberal, a conservative should understand the greatness of the individual. People want to make it in this country, they want to succeed and thrive but the inspiration is lacking when handout after handout keeps them blinded by convenience. Tell them the truth. The truth might hurt but it will make them and you better.

3. Kick, Scream and Yell.

The Democrats have control over ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, NPR, Hollywood and most newspapers and magazines. They consistently protest about everything from freeing Palestine (SEE: Lovely Liberal Protestors ) to saving the albino, long toothed bird moose (is that even real?). They scream for freedom of speech so long as it is their speech not descent ( SEE: Ignorant, brainwashed students ) and they are outspoken in their public speaking and indoctrination attempts.

Republicans need to start kicking, screaming and yelling at every opportunity. When one of our elected officials is invited to debate on a news program, they need treat the interview like a hostile interrogation (which it will be from practically every left leaning news organization) and fight tooth and nail on every issue debated. The reason the Left is being heard is because they are louder. Be loud. In the arena of ideas liberals will always lose because sob stories and a historically failed ideologies are not ideas just pander. I am not recommending a protest on every street corner (most Republicans have responsibilities and cannot drop everything to protest bread sales) but a united front and, yes, if the issue is important enough (fighting FOCA, Omnibus, National Healthcare,) public protest, nationwide.

The GOP needs to encourage the growth and recognition of new organizations that push Republican and Conservative ideas and solutions. We need new, fresh faces to help sell our ideas in order for future generations to appreciate and understand our ideology. Attack the liberal indoctrination that runs rampant in our education system beginning in grammar school and continuing through university. Support conservative writers, bloggers, websites, newspapers, magazines and radio shows. Support conservative Hollywood and ignore the pretty faces and tiny brains of the Hollywood "elite". Educate your neighbors and your friends and most importantly your children. Remind them that "Republican" and "Conservative" are not bad words. It is not wrong to be pro-life. It is not wrong to expect citizens to take responsibility for their own lives. It is not wrong to want government to stay out of your life, your business and your wallet.

Kick and Scream and Yell.
