PLEASE PAY CLOSE ATTENTION TO THE FOLLOWING
INFORMATION. IT'S THE GUTS OF HOW THE LEFT HAS GAINED SUCH OUT OF PROPORTION
CONTROL OF POLITICS WITH A SUCH A MINORITY OF VOTERS.
The
left-wing political leadership recognized that, by themselves, they were only a
tiny percentage of the American population, never enough in numbers to win
elections. However, small as they were, they were organized and they had a
plan, a grand scheme to socialize America! They knew where they wanted to go
but how to get there was the question! Patient gradualism was the answer.
Studying
the mechanics of American politics, they soon recognized that, on the average,
only fifty percent of all adult Americans ever bothered to register to vote.
ONLY HALF! Then, in the primary elections, where the two parties choose their
candidates, again, ONLY HALF of those who took the time to register even
bothered to participate. So, only ONE OUT OF EVERY FOUR Americans actually vote
in primary elections where candidates for the general election are selected.
It's quite a shock to realize that three out of every four Americans have no
say-so in the selection of primary candidates. THAT'S NOT ALL!!! ... Add to
those facts, multiple candidates run in primary elections, it is not uncommon
for five to ten candidates to seek the same office for each party; thereby
splitting the vote even farther. This is especially true when no incumbent is
running for re-election, or when every ten years, new seats are created by
reapportionment and the office is considered an "open seat". [More in
a later column on how the games are played in reapportionment]
Therefore,
a small organized percentage of voters could nominate and elect their candidate
in primary elections since multiple candidates inevitably seek the same office.
The following is an actual example of how a small minority can win a major
California State Senate office. The registration heavily favored one of the
major parties.
District
population approximately 600,000
Those
who could register to vote 400,000
Those
who bothered to register 235,000
Total
who voted in primary election 120,000
Dominate
party primary vote 70,000
Lesser
party primary vote 50,000
Eight
candidates sought the major party nomination and the winning candidate gained
16,000 of the 70,000 votes cast; the other seven candidates split the remaining
54,000.
The
primary winner won handily in the general election because of the registration
advantage. He easily gained the Senate seat and served for 22 years. He gained
leadership and helped elect many others of like mind. Is this race an
exception? No! It happens all the time. Realize the significance of only 16,000
votes out of potentially 400,000 who could have participated. Think about it.
Is it any wonder that a small dedicated minority of voters could have a
disproportionate impact on our government when three out of four Americans
don’t even register or bother to take part in primary elections ---- in the
very important process of selecting who their candidates might be? Think long
and hard about it!!!
The
left saw that in local elections for school boards, city council, supervisory
races, a even much smaller numbers of votes could affect the outcome. With an
organized minority of fellow activists, left wing candidates could, and have
won local offices. Once elected, and establishing a base of operations as an
incumbent office holder, it's much easier to develop important name identity
--- therefore, making it much easier to move up, step by step, to higher
office, such as state representatives and state senators. Then, at a later
opportunity, to Congress and the US Senate. Many a national left-wing
Congressman and Senator has successfully followed this upward path and are now
in national office. Study the careers of Democrat Congressman George Miller and
Henry Waxman as good examples.
Once
elected, even to the smallest seat, the socialist becomes an active part of the
movement; committed to help promote the socialist cause, and helping others
succeed. They effectively use their office to hire those of like mind, train
staff, raise funds and gradually introduce, bit by bit, socialist legislation.
For years and years, the good socialist activist moves upwards to one higher
office after another --- that is, if he or she remains a good soldier.
The
socialists, in Democrat or Republican garb, believe that any method that
achieved socialist power is “ethical.” As mentioned before, “the end justifies
the means” becomes their motto and method of operation. Deception and lying
became the tools of their trade. To call someone a “lying socialist” is a
redundancy.
To Be Continued ...
