We must go back to the basics, “blocking and tackling” , to know our government officials. This is Part Two of a Step by Step Tutorial that will lead us to know our officials, keep track of them, know what they stand for, know how to judge them, and take us from “back row moron” to “Head of the Class”  with this knowledge: 

1. Go to Congress.org enter your zip code.
2. A Complete listing of all your governmnet officials will appear arranged from U.S. President through State officials. Click on “Officials” in the top heading for a list of House and Senate leaders.
3. Use the Name Links to obtain biographical, representative views, and opinions on current issues. Read this information using a questioning “grain of salt”.
4. Print this list out, use it as your “Evaluation Guide” and LEARN this list!

Next you want to be able to research the voting records of these officials to judge their performance. Are they working for you?…their own political interests?…or something even more sinister?…

1. Go to Votesmart.org, in the upper left corner enter the official’s name whose voting record you want to research and evaluate,  Click GO         
2. A Complete Listing  for the official will appear . Over on the right side there are Links that take you to the officials Voting Record, Issue Positions, and other valuable information.
3. Print this information, study and learn where these people stand.
4. Do this for officials that are running for another office, such as a senator running for U.S. President.
5. Make This Your Business, Your Responsibility!…

We must be educated and prepared to change the political landscape by voting out the bad officials who aren’t working for us and  who are about to destroy America. No more sitting around muttering to ourselves about how bad things are getting and saying “This Should Not Happen In America”. Get off your bottom and out of your safe little social circles.

Remember, nearly 40% of registered voters did not vote in the 2008 Presidential Election. A high percentage of these voters were Conservative/Republican voters who stayed away from the polls. In the past weeks “Tea Parties” across America have been instrumental in waking Conservative minded folks up and there are many more planned. 

Do your own social event. Employ the three “C’s”,… Cokes, Charcoal, and Chat. Have a cookout, invite friends and neighbors and instead of talking about what football coach is next to be fired, Talk About What We Can Do to take our Country, our Freedoms, and our Free Enterprise back. 

When you know what your government officials are doing, using the tools outlined here, you will have Power and Ammunition. You can judge whether these people should be in office. As a Conservative American if they aren’t working for YOU…Find Someone Better and Work to Elect Them!  Go To The Head Of The Class!

On the lighter side of reality, here is one of our recent Tees…
