Let me start out by sharing something about my daily work. As a coach, I never have full information. Every situation holds more information than I can access, yet still I have to make recommendations. And I have to stand behind them.
2) What does it mean to "stand behind" my recommendations? It means I have to be ready to be fired over them. Laughingly, I have claimed to be the most fired person you'll ever meet. Thing is, I almost never get fired anymore. Alas.
3) Truth is, those few clients who opt out tend, I sadly say, to ghost out. They don't actually fire me. They simply stop accepting my advice and slowly fade into silence. This makes me crazy. But it is a thing. Clients, instead of firing me, ghost away. Alas.
4) Here's why I share. In all cases, them firing me, me firing them, or the ghostly silence, I still had to take a stand and stand behind my recommendations. That is always there. It never disappears. St. Paul always teaches me to speak boldly as I ought to speak.
5) And that's why I love my reading list. I lose track of the numbers. What? Are there 400,000 precincts/voting districts in America? Are there something like 3,000 counties? I confess, I forget. No matter. Let's just say there are a lot of them, yes?
6) It's not just my own, today's best analysis establishes the simple fact that if we would save America from its seeming socialist destiny under current powers, Republicans MUST rise up in the Precinct Committeeman dedication. Let that sink in.
7) Once again, allow me to qualify myself. I tried, but failed to vote in 2016 for Donald Trump, which would have been my first vote had I succeeded. I didn't believe in voting. Trump converted me, but still, I was unable to place that vote for technical reasons. No kidding.
8) I'm a good convert. I now believe that voting is the single most important aspect of citizenship in our democracy - and yes, we are both, a democracy and a republic and in that order...democracy first, republic second. More on that another day...
9) The problem is this. Voting holds such little real power. We don't actually organize ourselves around voting. We organize by way of political party. It is the Precinct Committeeman who holds greatest actual power in our nation, but we don't realize this.
10) So here's your book. Probably, it's more a pamphlet than a book because it's so short. But do NOT confuse short with failure to be hard hitting! This is simply MUST READ material. I stand behind that recommendation!
11) In building my list, I have to work strategically first, tactically second. I'll explain more about that another day too. Tactically, Daniel Schultz' work here is the single most important guidance America needs us to take in. We MUST become Precinct Committeemen.
12) We? I confess instantly, I will NOT become one. For my reasons, it is NOT the right path for me. What I pledge, is that I will recruit them. If you're interested in becoming one, reach out to me by DM. Let me recruit you. I'll give you the lay of the land. I promise.
13) Let's turn to my list now. I believe you should read all 18 books on the list. In what order? I can't tell you that in general. The list has evolved, but not to the point of being properly sequential. Reading book 1 first, and then onto book 2 may - OR MAY NOT - work for you.
14) What I can stand behind, 100%, is that if there's a book on my list you haven't read, then you should get it and read it. One at a time, not the entire list all at once. The list is an ongoing perusal, if you will, of the work of my entire life of study.
15) Frankly, I care a great deal more about the strategy of all this than I do the tactics. I am passionate about tactics, I truly am. But I live more in a strategic than a tactical world. What is the strategy to save America from Her current socialist direction?
16) The other book I'd have to match to Schultz' is Unrestricted Warfare. Our current resident in the White House is China's man, lock, stock, and barrel. Our election stolen, we are growing subject to China, now.
17) Let's rise up, higher. You need your own reading list. Mine will do, if you embrace it. But no matter if you reject some or all of it, that's okay. The real challenge is the question of whether or not your have any reading list at all. Do you follow?
18) My list, yours, or the list anyone else recommends is close to zero importance. What matters is that you have one, and one you truly embrace. Once you have a list, you must NEVER NOT be reading one of the books identified.
19) It has been one of evil education's highest objectives to separate reading from action. Our task is to reverse this trend. We must inculcate reading the greatest thinking in history with determining our own tiny, local actions.
20) Are you a Republican Precinct Committeeman? If not, why not? If so, let me help you. My reading list will help. I promise. But in any case, there are steps for you to take. And if you're not a Precinct Committeeman, then read Daniel Schultz' book and sign on if you can.
Thread ends at #20.
Let us help you become a Precinct Committeeman. Ask for our help and we’ll give it!
Friendships evolve. As they grow, new depths are attained. I speak very specifically of @HelpStopHate 's David Sumrall. David is my friend. Our friendship has grown and deepened over some several years now.
2) The image you see above is from Claude Shannon's 1948 paper on the mathematical theory of communication. Go figure! I was reading Shannon's book again this morning, and work that David and I are doing came into mind.
3) Many years ago, I developed a method of study. I just call it "How to be a truly excellent student." Or, Excellent Studies. What hit me this morning is that it's all about communication. We have to turn to another source, Warren Weaver. He gives us the following definition.
I’m not sure. I don’t remember exactly. Was it 33,000, 32,000, or just north of 31,000 followers I once had here at Twitter? Right now, I’m at 18,145…ish… Why ish? Twitter plays censorship games.
2) Out of you 18,000 followers, the numbers indicate that there are some 1,800 prospects for my services as a coach. Of those, 180 are serious prospects, and 18 are clients. That is, clients in the waiting. Please understand, I don't have the ability to accept 18 new clients.
3) Why should you care? I publish patriotic analysis. I serve our nation thereby. I do not ask for and would never accept financial contributions for my work. Rather, I am a PROUD Self-Funder! I am NOT a PAYtriot. We have to talk about that.
The always amazing and informative @JackPosobiec posted this image for us. It couldn't be more important. Let's discuss it thoughtfully.
2) We'll start with a quick bit of background. For the full story, we'd have to go back to Nixon, Kissinger, and Carter. But for our purposes, the story can commence with Bush 41, and include Clinton and Bush 43. The key is the WTO.
3) Tiananmen Square was a moment. Bush 41 could have led the world to condemn it, and scorn China's evil CCP. Instead, he granted them the right to oppress their people. He rejected Democracy's principles of freedom when it came to China. The shame echoes on to this day.
So there I was, yesterday, having a wonderful conversation with a brilliant soul. Our topic was grief and grieving, as a pet is aging and will soon pass away. My question was: do you feel you've ever experienced true grief?
2) I could NOT have been more shocked than to hear the response. It came it two parts.
1) I have philosophy, it helps. It gives me comfort.
2) There is no such thing as ownership. I never owned my pet, as one never actually owns anything.
3) I so profoundly wish I were a wiser man. The philosophical error here was, for my great friend, far less important than his emotional distress. A wiser man than me would have known that and left the philosophy behind. The heart rules. Not the brain or mind.
Few things have quite so crystal clear a beginning. This does. The study of Natural Law for any American patriot begins in the very first paragraph of our Declaration of Independence.
2) Here is the key phrase: "the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them." We'll discuss "the separate and equal station" first. Then, Natural Law will be our true target.
3) As always, honor to my teacher is my delightful task. @shestokas is my greatest teacher of American history, of our founding, of the legal basis of our nation's destiny. You must buy his book:
What are your purse strings? Your purse is your coin, hanging from your belt by strings. Having such a purse, you're rich. Therefore, you wear a woolen wig. Wigs made out of wool are a thing.
2) When we hoodwink you, we pull down your wig and cut your purse strings at the same time. We pull the wool down over your eyes. We trick you. We steal from you. We make you blind for the moment at take your coin from you. It's fun and profitable. Thieving is fun.
3) The word "heist" is a slight mispronunciation of the word "hoist." It means to lift. We hoist up the sails. We lift them up. We take the wealth of a bank or a train car with cash in it. We hoist it. It is a heist. Very similar to cutting your purse strings, yes?
