NOW THAT YOU HAVE READ MODULE 1, YOU HAVE BEEN THINKING ABOUT THE WHO, WHAT, WHERE, AND HOW TO GET THE DEMOCRACY U CANDIDATE PROGRAM MOVING.
LET ME CITE ONE IMPORTANT FACTOR IN THIS QUEST FOR A CANDIDATE AND THAT IS, PARTY AFFILIATION IS IMMATERIAL IN THIS EFFORT. WE DON’T CARE IF YOUR CANDIDATE’S PARTY AFFILIATION IS RED, BLUE OR GREEN. THE TWO ITEMS THAT DO MATTER KNOWS NO PARTY. THEY ARE THE IMPORTANT “ISSUES” AND THE BASICS OF DEMOCRACY. BOTH OF THESE SHOULD BE THE FOCUS AND STRATEGY THAT ARE IMPORTANT TO U. YOUR ISSUES AND OF COURSE DEMOCRACY, WHICH IS THE FOUNDATION OF GOVERNANCE THAT REPRESENTS ALL OF US.
LET’S GET DOWN TO WHAT RACES ARE IMPORTANT AND WHAT ARE THE TIME LINES. THEN WE WILL DISCUSS THE USE OF DATA INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THE DOLLARBILLBRIGADE.COM SITE.
DURING 2017 THERE ARE NO CONGRESSIONAL ELECTIONS, BUT THERE ARE TWO STATE ELECTIONS, NEW JERSEY AND VIRGINIA. THESE TWO STATE RACES ARE IMPORTANT BECAUSE OF TWO CONSTITUTIONAL OFFICES WHICH I CALL THE “CZARS OF DEMOCRACY” (SEE BLOG OF APRIL 13, 2014), THE GOVERNOR AND SECRETARY OF STATE. ALTHOUGH THERE ARE THE IMPORTANT STATE LEGISLATORS, ADDING THEM TO OUR CANDIDATE TASK WOULD INCREASE OUR EFFORTS BY THOUSANDS. WHEREAS, THESE TWO OFFICES BASICLY CONTROL VOTING, VOTING ISSUES, VOTER RIGHTS, GERRYMANDERING AND THE POWER OF THE VETO. VERY IMPORTANT.
THERE IS MUCH TO BE DONE AT THE STATE LEVEL AND THE STRATEGIES WE WILL DISCUSS ARE APPLICABLE TO THESE ELECTIONS WITH APPROPRIATE MODIFICATIONS. UNFORTUNATELY THE DOLLAR BILL BRIGADE DATA BASE DOES NOT COVER PERFORMANCE DATA ON STATE CONSTITUTIONAL OFFICES AT THIS TIME. ONE FACTOR WE MUST KEEP IN MIND, TIME IS CRITICAL AND FINDING CANDIDATES IMPERATIVE IN ORDER FOR THEM TO MEET THE QUALIFICATIONS FOR CANDIDACY.
SO LET’S START WITH THE CONGRESSIONAL INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THE DOLLARBILLBRIGADE.COM. UNDER THE “HOW THEY VOTED” MENU ITEM YOU WILL FIND A SENATE AND HOUSE MATRIX. EACH MATRIX CONTAINS THE NAME OF EACH REPRESENTATIVE OF EACH STATE AND CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT, THEIR PARTY AFFILIATION, THE PERCENTAGE VOTE BY WHICH THEY WON THEIR LAST ELECTION, AND FINALLY HOW THEY VOTED ON MAJOR ISSUES AS CITED IN THE MATRIX INTRODUCTION. THE SENATE INFORMATION IS KEYED BY UPPER AND LOWER NAME CASE AS TO WHO WILL BE UP FOR RE-ELECTION IN THE YEARS 2018, 2020, AND 2022. IN BOTH TABLES YOU CAN SORT ON ANY COLUMN OR ANY NAME TO OBTAIN THE SUMMARY OR DETAILED INFORMATION YOU SEEK. AS INFORMATION BECOMES AVAILABLE AND TIME PERMITS I WILL ADD ADDITIONAL INFORMATION LIKE WHO HAS BEEN AFFILIATED WITH A.L.E.C., WHO DOES NOT INTEND TO RUN FOR RE-ELECTION, ETC, ETC. LET ME NOTE THAT UNDER %WIN, A WIN OF 100% MEANS THE PERSON WAS UNOPPOSED.
SO HOW DO WE USE THESE DATA BASES? ONE SIMPLE INFORMATIONAL SORT IS TO SORT ON “%WIN” AND NOTE THOSE REPS WITH THE LOWEST %. THEY ARE THE MOST VULNERABLE IN THEIR DISTRICT AND/OR PARTY. SOME MAY BE THE INCUMBENT YOU MAY WANT TO SUPPORT IF THEY VOTED TO SUPPORT YOUR POSITION ON THE ISSUES OR IF NOT, THOSE DISTRICTS/OFFICES MAY BE A TARGET FOR A POLITICAL CHALLENGER. NOW DON’T GET HUNG UP ON PARTY AFFILIATION. LIKE I SAID ISSUES OVER PARTY. FOR EXAMPLE, DID YOU KNOW REAGAN WAS A DEMOCRAT BEFORE HE CHANGED PARTY TO BECOME THE REPUBLICAN PRESIDENTIAL NOMINEE. SAME FOR TRUMP AND PARTY CHANGES BY DOZENS OF SENATE AND HOUSE MEMBERS OVER THE YEARS.
DON’T BE BLOWN AWAY BY THE NUMBER OF YEARS AN INCUMBENT HAS SERVED, THEIR HIGH %WIN FIGURE OR PARTY CONTROL. LET ME USE AS AN EXAMPLE, IF KHIZR KHAN WERE TO RUN FOR THE ONLY REPUBLICAN CONTROLLED CONGRESSIONAL HOUSE SEAT IN MARYLAND, HE COULD AND WOULD PROBABLY WIN. AS I INDICATED IN MODULE 1 A CANDIDATE DOESN’T HAVE TO LIVE IN THE CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT IN WHICH THE[Y DESIRE TO RUN. SO IF DENIRO LIVED IN NORTHERN CALIFORNIA HE MIGHT RUN AGAINST A LOCKED IN INCUMBENT IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA, EITHER IN THE INCUMBENT’S PARTY IN THE PRIMARY OR IN THE OPPOSITION PARTY’S GENERAL ELECTION. DID YOU GET THAT EITHER IN THE INCUMBENT’S PRIMARY OR THE OPPOSITION PARTY IN THE GENERAL OF COURSE S/HE WOULD HAVE TO WIN THE PRIMARY.
LET’S FINISH THIS MODULE AND SPEAK TO SOME POSSIBLE ISSUES WHICH CANDIDATES CAN USE TO DEVELOP A CAMPAIGN. JOBS, IMMIGRATION, CLIMATE CHANGE, CHOICE, CIVIL RIGHTS, VOTER SUPPRESSION, FEDERAL ELECTION REQUIREMENTS, SINGLE PAYER HEALTH SYSTEM, SOCIAL SECURITY/MEDICARE/MEDICAID, LBGTQ, EQUAL PAY, MINIMUM WAGE, HOMELAND SECURITY…JUST TO MENTION A FEW.
ENUFF FOR THIS MODULE, AS I INTEND TO KEEP THESE MODULES UNDER A THREE MINUTES READ. THE NEXT MODULE WILL COVER AMONG OTHER THINGS, HOW TO GO ABOUT USING SOME DIRTY (MAYBE SOILED) TRICKS.
THE FUTURE BEGIN TODAY !
