If we don't come out of this tailspin we don't survive. Our middle class lives are at stake.
Be willing to gambit the Queen to gain board advantage. In other words, kill the "Republican fear" extortion. The problem with extortion is that the ransom never goes away and the ransom price always goes up. Don't pay the ransom. Let the hostage die and along with it, the only bargaining chip die with it. In other words, gambit the Queen for long term goals. Vote your conscious. Don't vote against your own best interests. Don't let fear be the influence any longer.
Drop your gloves. Stay on the offensive. Don't "settle" for compromise if compromise is mediocrity.
Build a following. Play on emotion. Back it with facts. Do your research. Be relentless. Demonstrate passion. Don't give up every time you hit a bump in the road.
Our middle class lives are at stake.
