As those of of you who've followed my blog and twitter know, I am greatly trying to become more involved in the political activisim within our great republic.
But I've ran into some big obstacles that I'm trying to overcome.
I tried contacting the websites and phone numbers of the local tea party, tea party patriots, and other conservative groups, asking how I could become more active. I got no response at all.
I tried calling for a rally, that actually got some response, but not enough as no one knew who I was. And once again attempts to contact local conservative organizations went ignored.
So how do young unknown conservatives get involved?
I'm sure I'm not the only one who's had issues.
I'm not likely the only one frustrated with being ignored.
I can't be the only one confused on how to find an active conservative group that's local to me.
Too much of conservative movements is still word of mouth. Not enough is public so that more can easily join.
We are your children, neices and nephews, neighbours, employees, future inlaws, your cashier, your banker, your server at the restaurant. We are your future!
Just because we are young(er) and new(er) to the movement, doesn't make us stupid and useless.
We are facing the same issues you are, are just as sick of the problems we are facing, and have the same beliefs you do.
We care about the United States of America. We want to help. We want to be active. We want to rally and protest with our fellow conservatives.
Stop ignoring us!
Seek us out. Respond when we seek you out.
Help us join you, or help by joining us.

Ignition point Wisconsin
The fight has once again ignited. Wisconsin is the center of it this time, but it is spreading to other states. Obama and the unions have begun and/or are preparing protests in various states across the country.
Conservative America, WAKE UP!
Now is not the time to sit idly by if you have any kind of choice.
Now is the time to organize and start rotating counter-protests and rallies of support for the governors and state legislatures who are standing up for what is right.
This is a huge moment. Win this one and we eliminate some of the unions' power. And support in states like Wisconsin will hopefully embolden and inspire the rest of our country to join them, in taking power back for We The People, where it rightfully belongs.

Some Thoughts on Wisconsin
Wisconsin Democrats flee state in order to avoid voting on the budget.
Seriously?
Are you 5 and didn't want to do the dishes, so you ran away from home?
Either get yourselves back into Madison, and vote what the people want, or resign so that the governor can call for new elections. If you don't have the intelligence or backbone to do either, then just stay gone.
Hopefully the rest of Wisconsin's congress and the Governor will declare you in contempt of their call to return, and begin impeachment proceedings, so that the vote might continue.
To add to it, the SEIU, is calling on unions from out of state to join in protesting the proposed budget. Not just in words mind you, but in person.
Might be time for Wisconsin to close the borders whilst this is taken care of.
And definitely is the time for Tea Party and other conservatives from around there to counter the protests, with visible support.
To the Wisconsin congress and governor now barricaded inside the capitol (for fear of their safety from the mob outside), keep up the fight. We The People are with you. We are praying, and help is coming.

Thoughts on Conservative's biggest obstacle
As some (I wish I could say all) of you know my last blog was an attempt to start a nationwide rally that would've been held this Saturday, to protest the Senate's failure to repeal healthcare. Almost immediately I was being told that 8 days was not enough notice. To me that originally just seemed more of a challenge, but very sadly it became quickly apparent, that they were right.
Even more sadly, I've seen liberal rallies go from idea to occurence in under 24 hours.
So why is it that conservatives can't make a rally happen in just over a week, yet liberals can in less than a day?
There are several reasons, but the biggest is part of what makes conservatives, conservatives. Love of the status quo.
Liberals want change, and so they'll act for it. Conservatives want to be left alone, they don't want to have to step up, and so try to avoid upsetting anything.
Eventually if you piss off a conservative, you can definitely get them going, but unless they maintain their levels of aggravation, they calm down, and it will take them even longer to rise up again.
If conservatives are going to win, they have find a way to overcome their natural desire to stay out of it, and not just for one vote or one Glenn Beck rally, but for as long as necessary to overcome liberalism and to keep it from returning.
They need to not just be able to rally at short notice, but be prepared to do so for as long as it takes.
Question remains how do we as conservatives make that change?

Calling All American Citizens
As we all now know, the Senate has failed to repeal Obama's Healthcare. 47-51, and the traitors to the Constitution and this nation of The United States of America, have chosen their side.
They've ignored the voices of the people from November.
I find it very interesting timing that they've done this at this time of year.
Next Saturday, Februrary 12, 2011, we celebrate the 202nd birthday of President Abraham Lincoln.
I believe it would be a good day for the people of the United States to stand up for their rights against a government that no longer stands for the people, but has brought tyranny through the imposition of unconstitutional taxation.
As Americans we are guaranteed the right to peaceful protest.
In support of that right I call upon my fellow citizens to join me, by gathering at each state's capitol to protest the continuance of a government headed away from the will of the people. To call for each state, and its citizens, to consider impeachment of those who voted against the repeal. And if necessary to call for new elections, so that We The People may actually have representation in our government.
If you believe in The United States of America, and The Republic founded therein, I ask you to join me at your state's capitol, at 1pm MST, and spread the word for all true Americans to do so.
Sincerely,
Jonathan D. Sangster, American citizen
