The Silent Majority<\/p>\n
Where is it?<\/p>\n
In a kinder, gentler and more respectful time, politically speaking, we spoke of the “silent majority.”\u00a0 This group was represented with individuals from all walks of life, from the north and the south, for the east and the west, democrat and republican.\u00a0 Who speaks of the silent majority today?\u00a0 Who represents them and what effect do they have in our society today?<\/p>\n
I would like to make a proposal about this group and then discuss several points to back up my proposal.<\/p>\n
As Barack Obama began his first campaign to become president of the United States, he created a theme of “hope and change.”\u00a0 Little detail was ever discussed about his proposed “transformation of America” during the entire campaign, but it worked – Barack Obama was elected President of the United States of America.<\/p>\n
During his first year in office, he gave a speech in Pennsylvania.\u00a0 In that speech, he isolated a group of people as “enemies” of the country.\u00a0 He referred to them a “Bible huggers and gun toters.” \u00a0I was appalled.\u00a0 I could not remember any President speaking in such terms about a relatively large and meaningful group of people -people who love their God and are protective of citizen’s rights to hold and bear arms.\u00a0 At the time, I wrote several letters to President Obama accepting his challenge that I was an “enemy of the United States.”<\/p>\n
Let me propose a different way of analyzing the presidency of President\u00a0 Obama.\u00a0 Instead of reviewing the first term and then the second, let’s review his first two years and his last two years.\u00a0 In 2009 and 2010, the democrat party controlled the House of Representatives, the Senate and the White House.\u00a0 They also held a majority of the governorships of the nation and most of the state legislatures.\u00a0 However, when 2015 rolled around, President Obama found himself with a republican House and Senate.\u00a0 As he stated, “I have my phone and my pen”, and for the last two years of his presidency he ruled as he desired with executive orders, regulatory pronouncements and personal declarations.\u00a0 That has changed, now the republicans hold a majority of the governorships (today they have 35 governorships) and over 1,000 democrat seats in state legislatures have been lost.\u00a0 Apparently someone was not pleased with “transformation” they had experienced in the previous 6 years.<\/p>\n
Who was the leader of this great change in the political landscape of America?\u00a0 Which pollsters were driving this change?\u00a0 Were there elite marketers and organizers driving this change?\u00a0 None of the above!\u00a0 A mass of Americans stood up and said, ENOUGH!\u00a0 This group has several common characteristics, such as:<\/p>\n
This “indefinable group” caused the massive political change from 2009 to 2015.<\/p>\n
Now it was time for the presidential campaign of 2016.\u00a0 The “silent majority” were seeking a “catalyst” to continue and complete their desires.\u00a0 The Republican Party started with 16 candidates, all of whom were fine individuals, with some great ideas and a desire to serve.\u00a0 One of them, Donald J. Trump, was considered to be a “joke”, a “farce”, a total outsider.\u00a0 He was rough around the edges and, in the beginning no one thought he had a prayer.\u00a0 The Media laughed, were incredulous and totally disbelieving as to his credibility.\u00a0 But a funny thing happened on the way to the election –\u00a0 he didn’t go away!\u00a0 His followers were quickly dubbed, the deplorables, racists, white supremacists, ignorant and unsophisticated, and many other names.<\/p>\n
Mr. Trump made many mistakes, spoke outrageously at times and was often counted out, but he never quit.\u00a0 At 8:00 PM on the night of the election, most people still assumed he would lose.\u00a0 No group of people has been so consistently wrong as the group who opposed Donald J. Trump from the beginning until the present time.\u00a0 This group includes democrats, the liberal media and even a fairly large slice of the leadership of the Republican party!\u00a0 Every excuse in the book has been heard and discussed, but here are a few facts that will not go away:<\/p>\n
Now comes the critical question – “Will the deplorables, the racists, the white supremacists, the ignorant and the unsophisticated” be around in2018?\u00a0 In 2020?\u00a0 The answer is a resounding: yes!\u00a0 “We the People” still seek the same goals, they are crucial for our survival as a nation.\u00a0 “We the People” continue to hold dear, the qualities and integrity that some have such a desire to destroy.\u00a0 We will not allow that.\u00a0 We do not need a leader, we have our standards.\u00a0 We aren’t\u00a0 sure what politicians have similar\u00a0 standards,\u00a0 but we are identifying them daily and we will work hard to get others to run against them and conquer them!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
