Local politics is the foundation of our American political system





William R. Hawkins of the American Thinker (Nov.7, 2014 ~ GOP Overcomes Libertarian Plot) writes,  " The GOP is expected to offer national leadership, and the party will be judged on the success of its policies.  Whether it's economic recovery, national security or traditional values, the party must be active, not passive."


And he is so right we expect leadership!

We must first acknowledge that local politics is the foundation of our American political system, as U.S. Speaker of the House Tip O’Neill, said “all politics is local.”

The vast majority of today’s elected officials began their political careers from a lower office, perhaps a very small, local office, and worked their way up.  Today’s senators and governors were yesterday’s party precinct chairs, HOA presidents, PTA presidents, zoning committee members, school board trustees, and city council members, all very important to a successful vibrate community.

The key to future success of our party and communities will be identifying and organizing thousands of individuals who are willing to help improve our communities through direct political action, by getting involved.

We as Republicans must seek out and support local republican candidates, they are the future of our party and the only hope for implementing our principles in all levels of government, now and in the future.

If you want to conquer your fear of the path our country is taking, do not sit home watching FOX News and cheering Carson, Cruz or Rand.  Go out and get busy.  Get very busy, and start on the local level. Get involved in your local Republican party.

Here is a link to all the state Republican Party Organizations:

Please reach out to them for the contact information of your local Republican party Chairman.

Ask your local Republican party chairman to get you in touch with the Republican officers of your precinct.  These are like-minded members of your very own community.

Start today...the 2016 election is on its way.
