Debra Medina......... America's most exciting candidate since Ron Paul. A true Libertarian/Republican candidate who supports eliminating property tax in Texas, restoring and asserting state's rights, second amendment rights, castrating the federal government and reducing corruption right at home. Stop Globalism/N.W.O. at the border. Use Texas troops to secure that border. Judge Nap and Alex Jones have both interviewed her on www.infowars.com. Go to the site and search DEBRA MEDINA. With your support of "shoe leather, elbow grease, and dollars" she will win. Debra Medina. (Republican/Libertarian) next Gov of Texas. NC libertarians for the republic.....

If you didn't get to watch the KERA debate here it is.
This debate video is a must watch if you care about Texas.  I think it should be required viewing for voters. 

Full debate video here, 1 hour:
http://texasdebates.org/video.php
 
We were in the audience and it was incredible!  Goose bumps!!!  The applause at the end was thunderous.  We were so quiet and well behaved during the debate.  No applause was allowed during the debate, but you wouldn't believe all the quiet chuckling that went on ALL over the auditorium!   Neither Rick nor Kay showed up for the after debate press conference that was scheduled.  The press was in another room waiting for the candidates.  They were supposed to go in turn and get 10 minutes each.  Debra got all the attention.
 
I was interviewed twice, once before the debate and once afterwards. After the high dollar reception (we didn't go!) she joined us at IHOP, her choice.  We got there first to reserve some space, they had a separate section off to one side I thought would work best.  I told them that the next governor of Texas was on her way over!  They scurried around to get it ready!!  It was GREAT!!!!   The waiter asked for an autograph, the couple near us asked for a photo and they got stickers and buttons!   The waiter had just come on shift.  He was awakened by his friends texting and calling him from the campus watch party about how awesome the debate was!  He was sorry he'd missed it all the excitement and he came to work and lo and behold, in we come with our little party!!! 
 
The word from Cape Buffalo where the Dallas Tea Party had arranged a watch party was that before the debate about half the crowd clapped for RP and half for DM, no one clapped for KBH.  After the debate the DJ asked for an applause meter to see who won the debate.  No one clapped for Kay, THREE people clapped for RP and the room errupted in applause for DM.  The DJ was in shock.  I heard this from others who were there as well! 
 
She hit number one on Google Trends that night!!!!  10,000 unique new visitors to her website in the first 20 hours after the debate!  Traffic was up 4x -10x  the usual.
 
Several links to news clips - CBS was great, very professional and impartial.  I called and thanked them.<

What is a KERA debate?????? Do you mean the Medina, Debra Medina debates? What is wrong with you...??? !!! They were the Debra Medina debates. Get the name out there. Also, I remember the phrase, "ain't no place like Texas" and "we do things bigger and better in Texas". Those slogans have an arrogance and have a Supremacist sound to them. They hint at racism and push people away from your cause. You in Texas are arrogant, and you need numbers. I left the wonderful city of Austin because of that arrogance. "ain't no place like Texass, Beautify Texass and buy a Yankee a bus ticket home". And if you really are a libertarian and really believe in the constitution and bill of rights you will amend your pitch. If Medina used your saying she would NEVER get the job. Do you want to loose? We have a tough enough job promoting the Bill of rights and Constitution. Even though it is the most wonderful man made, god inspired document it has the appeal of empowering old white guys. If that is true then let it fail and if you cannot get over your Texas "good old boy, good old white boy arrogance" and get your message out that it is God Given rights for ALL PEOPLE, then you are an obstacle to true freedom and a hindrance to Liberty and should step aside. "Bigger and Better" ...loose it. What you SHOULD promote is liberty and justice of the constitution. Not "The south is gonna rise again" I may support the cause of liberty...and I do, but if someone out there says........I do things bigger and better....or If you ain't from Texas you ain't S#&t. You are using my support for your cause to dominate me and I won't let that happen by any race or nationality. Think about it. I am not your enemy but your arrogance may make you mine. Philip in N.C., supporter of Debra Medina....... but not Texas arrogance.

The State of Texas does stand on its own. Our legislators are independent of the other states as the constitution provides. All states delegated some rights to the Federal Government, but should keep their independence and govern everything not delegated. The independence of the states is what keeps the Fed in check and should not be a threat to anyone but the Fed. We are the largest of the contiguous states, of which reference to should not threaten anyone. I hope the other states can stand alone with pride and nullify the Fed's dominance over them as well. The states formed the Fed, not the other way around. This individual pride should have nothing to do with racism or degradation of the other states.

Posted 01/29/10 DebbieMcKee Campbell, TX

Philip, I've told you before that I can't endorse Debra wearing the CFL hat, I have to be careful how much I post and what I say about it. I'm doing the best I can. KERA debate is accurate. We've hounded KERA for months to let Debra in. Every supporter in Texas knows that. And tonight's debate is the BELO debate, that's who is sponsoring it. Anything I say on the State page I'm saying to Texans first. I'm rallying MY fellow Texans. It has nothing to do with racism or supremacy. Isn't every state proud of themselves? I really don't know where you are coming from or why you got so irrate. But I sure don't deserve your ire. Debra herself quite often says that TEXAS will lead the way. America is looking to Texas to lead the way out of this mess. We have the 7th or 13th largest ecomony in the world. (Sorry can't remember which number is correct.) We have an important place in the grand scheme of things. That's just a fact.

"I've told you before that I can't endorse Debra wearing the CFL hat, I have to be careful how much I post and what I say about it. I'm doing the best I can." Sorry I missed what you've said in the past. Is that b/c CFL doesn't endorse candidates or some other policy? In any case, thanks for the first hand account of the debate. One other question. I notice your picture in front of Ralph Hall's office. I'm relatively new to Rockwall, I get the feeling he's entrenched there, but don't know much about his voting record at all. What's your take on him, and is he facing any competition in this election?

No RINOs in Nevada State GOP

Nevada Precinct Success Launches National Precinct Alliance

http://canadafreepress.com/index.php/article/17665 

By JB Williams  Monday, December 7, 2009

Nevada has become the proving ground for the precinct committeemen initiative and the success in Nevada is very likely to transform the GOP and RNC in the coming election cycle.

According to conservative grassroots activists behind the Nevada success story, a small group of about 30 Tea Party activists took matters into their own hands by way of filling vacant GOP precinct chairs, first at the local level, then the county and six months later, Tea Party activists seized control of the state GOP precincts, placing local Tea Party approved people at the head of the Nevada GOP.

Nevada precinct activist Tony Warren describes the timeline of events here at the new National Precinct Alliance web site.

"Nevada just had its elections for GOP Leadership. As a PC, It was my duty and great pleasure to drive 5 hours from Las Vegas to Hawthorn Nevada, along with our other delegates, to represent Clark County. Our approved slate of candidates swept the elections and we now control the entire State. No RINO was left standing. Every one of them has been moved out of our way. Every change to the State Party bylaws we didn't approve of was voted down. It was a complete and total VICTORY for the grassroots conservatives in Nevada."-said Warren

Nevada was the proving ground and now Warren and his leadership council, Dan (aka ColdWarrior) and Philip Glass, have taken the Nevada strategy and formed a nationwide networking organization aimed at recreating the precinct level success in precinct after precinct, state after state across the nation.

There is no doubt that the long term solution for a runaway government is the patriot's control of a primary party, and the direct retaking of the federal steering wheel. Until recently, too many citizens had forgotten that the government belongs to them if they will only get off the couch and get engaged in the process.

As I have explained many times, I have a 12 year old and a 10 year old at home. As great a kids as they are, if I leave them to tend to my house, the cleaning, the cooking, the shopping, the financial planning, etc., - I will likely return home to a mess and a half within only a few hours or days.

The people wrongly assumed that they could leave the care of their nation in the hands of elected officials, as if those elected officials had the same goals, the same talents and the same agenda. Now they know what happens when they fail to tend their own house and let the DC children run wild.

Rasmussen reports this morning-"Running under the Tea Party brand may be better in congressional races than being a Republican." Yet another foolish plug for the 3^rd Party concept? Once again, the devil is in the details...

That report goes on to state-"In a three-way Generic Ballot test, the latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds Democrats attracting 36% of the vote. The Tea Party candidate picks up 23%, and Republicans finish third at 18%. Another 22% are undecided."

And there you have it! Democrats have a solid 36% of the vote. A minority of the vote, but a winning minority that will win once again if the right remains divided.

The GOP can only win with the combined support of the 18% RNC voters and the 23% Tea Party voters. The 22% so-called "undecided's" will likely break nearly 50/50 at the end of the day.

Only if Tea Party folks unite with RNC folks can they defeat the DNC, better known today as the Democratic Socialists of America. Scattered over numerous 3^rd party efforts, the American Right has NO chance of regaining political power, much less saving U.S. sovereignty, security or freedom today.

If the right unites, they win in a 53-47 take over in the next election cycle. But if they allow themselves to be divided among 3^rd party efforts, they lose again to a 47% larger leftist minority.

Once you understand the simple math, you must ask what it will take to unite the pro-American political right with what's left of the old RNC.

The answer is simple-It will take gaining control of the GOP/RNC and returning America's "conservative" party to its "constitutional" roots. To do that, the people can no longer leave the "doing" to others. They must directly engage in the process individually and at the local level, the precinct level. That is the sole focus of National Precinct Alliance.

Others know how to throw a party, march, higher expensive speakers to come and hawk their latest book.  But Warren, Dan and Glass have shown the way to retake America in Nevada and now they are leading the charge nationwide.

As easy as 1, 2, 3...

• Retake the precincts
• Retake the Party
• Retake the nation

"To me, it is no longer a question of, "can this work?" It is a question of when the rest of the Patriots in our Country put forth the small amount of effort required to do the same thing."-said Warren

As a result, National Precinct Alliance has been chosen as the single strategic partner for the Precinct Committeemen project by newly formed and already affective patriot network Freedom Force US.

Freedom Force US was formed for the sole purpose of bringing patriots across the country together in a targeted tangible strategy, strategically partnering with initiative specific organizations capable of mobilizing millions of citizens in a proven strategy.

Thanks to Freedom Force and strategic partners like National Precinct Alliance, the people will soon be a few clicks from real power via their precinct chair.

In case you are tempted to think this is a "partisan" initiative, think again. The American right must retake control of their own party, the GOP. WWII Democrats and Jefferson liberals also angry with the current Marxist regime in Washington, must begin the process of retaking the DNC by the same methods. They just have a greater task ahead of them as the DNC is currently controlled by the Democratic Socialists of America, while the RNC is floundering about and ripe for the taking.

For more information on how to reclaim your country at the precinct level, visit the National Precinct Alliance. State and county precinct coordinators are being assigned every day and the necessary forms are available on the web site.

Visit Freedom Force US for more information on the absolute power of freedom! Pledges of support are being taken through December 15, 2009. Not a penny has been taken in yet and already, we are making history with tangible results! That's as it should be! It's all about the people...

Yea we can work on cleaning and cuereing the GOP, but in the mean time what party should get in? You can't Vote GOP If in 2012 if the Party itself is not 80 70 or even 90% Clean, It's going to take years before we can get to the roots in the Mean time we can vote for the few good men in the GOP that being Rand Paul, RonPaul and Jeff Sessions frome Alabama. but the party itself is not clean and there for anyone how is planing on voteing GOP should use the Yellow light and use extream castion. in the mean time the Constitution Party will do just fine. The Constitution Party is the largest growing 3d Party in America that holds there Canadates acounatble. in addision they are for Constitutal Goverment Grass root consivitives belives in the Free Market Limiteded Goverment is Aganced iligalImagration Abortion, Big Goverment and Undelcard wars and Gun Bands in addion there Pro Life ther for LigalImagration. Belives that war should be declard by maken a delcaration of war and belives that we should not be intangled in Forein Polcy. The Constitution Party means what they say and says what they mean and there a good assed for the people of theses Uniteded States how started out as the Tax payers party and was renamed the Constitution Party and had Alen Keys as a Canadate in 2004 with Chuck baldwin as his runing mate in 2008 it was Chuck Baldwin how won the Party's Nomonation for the Constitution Party aganced Obama, McCain, RalfNader, Bobbarr and many outher Canadates including the Libertaran Party The Green Party the Republican and Demacratic party the the demacrats and Republicans are known as the 2 major partys in American Politics and yet the CP was determein to win never backen down. Chuck won the Party's nomination by wining the popular vote with in the Constitution Party, he reseved a huge endorcemet frome Ron Paul and ran as in the CP Primarrys, after RonPaul had droped out of the Republican primarrys. The Constitution Party lost due to the lack of covrage it got frome the Media. the CP was not widly known as McCain and Obama was and Chuck Baldwin's voice was not heard widly anofe but non the less the Constitution Party had gotten more votes then ever before in it's History sence it's first establisment in America when it was first formed in 1990. almost 200 years later after 1776 the Birth of a new nation. See why The Constitution Party needs to Domanate in Loacl State and Fedral Leval including the white house it needs to also be the super majorty in the state's and the Congress and Senit in bouth the state's and Contree in order to get what it wants which is in the best inrets of the People of theses Uniteded States everone how want's Limited Goveremnt a Goveremnt runded by the Constitution needs to get behind the Constiution Party and suport it on a massove scale big time. Then wile there in Power, we Can use there Victorys as a Tool and Refence to reforming the GOP and Republican Party. or dispanding the GOP all togeather by voteing it out of exzatance. the best thing thoe is to take the GOP by hand and bump it down to a 3d Party then with the Constitution Party in power well let the GOP wach and Learn then we can straten out the GOP. that's my Advice. I also Advice the Campain for Liberty and it's suporters to take this messege and rase public awarness on the CP and what we can do to fix the GOP.

Dear Editor,

This is a response to Mr. Jaco’s letter about taxpayer funded health care. That’s nice that your family has been so well cared for by medicare, etc. However we should look at the realities of expanding or even continuing such programs- yes, health care must be paid for- but the idea of taxpayers footing the bill is a rather new one - only a few decades old. The consequences of such programs are unfunded liabilities that our country has no way to pay for, to the tune of 60 +/- trillion dollars. That means we’ve obligated ourselves to that as a future debt, promise to provide and pay for services we can‘t afford.

Whatever happened to personal responsibility, the free market and real charity? I’ll tell you what’s happened to it - the federal and state government came in and gradually took over just about every aspect of our lives. We look to big brother or nanny state instead of the person in the mirror.

 The more government has entangled itself in health care the more the costs have risen and efficiency and quality has gone down. What has government ever taken control of that has IMPROVED?

 Why am I, an uninsured person paying for the healthcare of EVERYONE else? Through corporations and businesses passing their expenses to consumers (me) and government passing the programs’ costs to taxpayers (me) - I pay for other’s care and cannot afford my own. There is something wrong with this picture. And no the answer isn’t for me to get in line for Medicaid (which I’m sure our family would qualify for, but we wouldn’t dream of asking others to pay for something that is OUR responsibility!).

 Healthcare choices should be left to the individual. No one should be forced -YES - forced to pay for someone else’s personal choices or consequences from those choices.

Imagine how much money we’d have in our pockets if we weren’t forced to subsidize - with everything we buy and taxed on every dime we earn - the care of others.

We could afford our own insurance if we chose to, whatever level we decided and from whatever provider we wanted. Like buying auto or home insurance. Insurance should cover the major catastrophes in life. Every sniffle, flat tire, routine oil change or burned out light bulb shouldn’t be paid for by insurance.

 Then we’d also have more money in our pockets to help the truly needy with charity. Which should be in the hands of community and churches, NOT the government.

We need to get back to taking care of ourselves- we do a much better job.

The trillions in promised future benefits is unsustainable. We must work toward removing government all together from those areas of life not authorized by the Constitution and not impose further burdens of debt on our people - such burdens will be born by children not yet born!

 Like Melody Brunson’s op-ed about changing buying habits and Ms. Eades letters about helping one another. We must start being more responsible for self , family and neighbors. And strengthen our churches and communities.

 Our debt based economy will continue to come crashing down. We’ve been plundered by Austin, Washington, Wall Street and the Federal Reserve (as well as the international bankers). And the looting hasn’t stopped. You think the dollar losing 95% of its purchasing power in the last 90 years is bad, just wait until the inflation which will result from the recent printing of trillions more in monopoly money comes home to roost. We will be the ones to pick up the pieces, we CANNOT look to the ones who’ve done this to us to take care of us.

This will mean a paradigm shift. Back 100 years or more would be a good place to start. Before the Federal Reserve Banking system, before the AMA censuring alternatives to healthcare, before socialism and fascism, before U.S. global empire building, before Federal indoctrination institutions (government controlled public schools), before the propaganda machines run by a few corporations.

 It’s not left vs. right folks, it’s tyranny vs. the people.

 Personal responsibility and local control are the prescriptions we need.

Small turnout, but we met new folks and had fun anyway.   We visited Rep. Eddie Bernice Johnson's office when we first arrived at 4 PM  to make sure they would be open closer to 5 when we brought in the petition signatures we told the secretary we were there supporting HR 1207 and wanted the Congresswoman to co-sponsor it.  She didn't think she'd heard of it, ( I thought, boy the constituents aren't making enough phone calls!).  Anyway, thankfully 2 of the guys who showed up WERE her constituents so we were covered.  We had 5 of us outside her office building holding signs, we got some pretty good response from the passersby.
 
When we went in just before 5 PM with the petitions, a letter and a packet of stuff I brought (JBS movies, AFTF, Fiat Empire, a Republic Magazine, etc.) the secretary told us that they had heard from DC and she did sign on!!!!
 
That was VERY exciting to hear! 
 
We left there and some of us went to the Fed, we were joined by others during the course of the evening.  All total, there were 9 of us and Adrienne, Sharrod and I were there for 3 1/2 hours!   We really got a LOT of good response tonight, even the Loomis truck driver who just left the FED with his police escort from OK honked and waved! 
 
I got more hassle from the Fed security guards than ever before, it was weird.  They kept trying to get me to tell them what group we were with.  I kept saying we were just concerned citizens, WE THE PEOPLE.   At EBJ's office we were officially from Campaign for Liberty, but at the Fed bank, we were just grassroots, concerned people in my book.  We did tell one security guard to go to auditthefed.com  for info (that was on a couple of the signs and he was trying to read them)  He kept trying to get info from me so he could have their public relations people contact me.  I said that wasn't necessary, and told him I'd been on the tour,   I did give him my name though.  (I didn't have any desire to sit down with a FED PR person.)
 
I guess maybe they are starting to wonder, here we are 10 months later, still demonstrating.

Hey Debbie, heard you became the new state coordinator in Texas! Congrats! If you haven't seen me around lately it's not because I don't care but because I moved to New York in June. We're doing big things up here. Hopefully, if we do our job, the midterm elections will vindicate us. -Dustin
