Precinct Chair: "The Most Powerful Office in America"

[hillbilly]

i just met with my county central committee chairman and got his backing to run for precinct chair. we talked a long time about policies and principles. no Iraq War, though, and no discussion of presidential candidates. i'm sure had either of those come up, i would have lost him.

Yep that's where we loose em.


Mention Ron Paul & your automatically labeled a conspiracy nut. And to talk of anything anti-war gives one the automatic label of "liberal traitor".

*sigh*


They are coming at us from so many angles it's scary. We need to be fighting back on all fronts-- both within & without the political box they've created, to the best of our individual abilities using the individual tools each of us has.

For those of you who are leaders in precincts that have already voted, please, visit the official website, sign in, and on the list of things to do, click on out of state identification. It took me 10 minutes to call 8 numbers. Only one took the survey (the rest were disconnected or voicemail). Every one of these that we can get done is huge, and with so many people in the system, it shouldn't be too hard to put a big dent in the numbers.

The way the site is set up is extremely easy. We need to get those Potomac voters, the race isn't over yet.

Thanks for posting this, its all GREAT information. I'm young, I'm 21, but I'm going to try to become a precinct chair or something, whatever it would be that I could do, for my precinct during the next time this election comes up. Hopefully things will work out and I can make it happen. My district is rural and doesn't have tons of people, so hopefully there won't be anyone really finding a problem with me.

justinc.1089: Great!

Make some friends that you can bring along to make sure you get elected!

Read about "Neuro-Linguistic Programming" and "rapport" for some useful ideas on talking. Here's a start: http://www.nlp-now.co.uk/rapport.htm

Read about pick-up: http://www.fastseduction.com/guide/ and try the exercises to build confidence and get used to talking to people. A lot of it is based on NLP principles.

Also read "How to Win Friends and Influence People" for some more ideas. Maybe read "Sleight of Mouth: Conversational Belief Change" for some more advanced ideas.

Good luck!

Now would seem to be a good time for people to step up and act on this, both parties seem to be weakened and with initiative things could change for the better.

NV Democrats floundering. How are their conventions going in YOUR state? http://www.dailypaul.com/node/139315

odd-numbered years are usually the year for the elections of party officers. We need to make a monster push in 2011.

This is a HUGE year here in NC, but it is right after the first of next year that precinct meetings start happening.

It's never too late to get a jump on things tho, get out there and do some campaigning with the nearest liberty candidate if you can.

Volunteer to do some phone banking if you have unlimited long distance (it doesn't matter where you are, you can do this...)

Find out when your local party of choice is having their meeting, regardless of what kind of meeting it is, and GO.

Get out there and do something....

Is this really true? If so, I'm going to need to get working and get tons of Ron Paul people in as precinct whatchamas here in Wyoming. It's a caucus state, and so the precinct people have ridiculous, disproportionate power, unilaterally sending whoever they want to the GOP convention as delegates.
