The American Dream ended (on November 6th) in Ohio. The second term of Barack Obama will be the final nail in the coffin for the legacy of the white Christian males who discovered, explored, pioneered, settled and developed the greatest Republic in the history of mankind.

A coalition of Blacks, Latinos, Feminists, Gays, Government Workers, Union Members, Environmental Extremists, The Media, Hollywood, uninformed young people, the "forever needy," the chronically unemployed, illegal aliens and other "fellow travelers" have ended Norman Rockwell's America.

The Cocker Spaniel is off the front porch...the Pit Bull is in the back yard.

The American Constitution has been replaced with Saul Alinsky's "Rules for Radicals" and Chicago shyster, David Axelrod, along with international Socialist George Soros will be pulling the strings on their beige puppet to bring us Act 2 of the New World Order.

Our side ran two candidates who couldn't even win their own home states, and the circus fattster Chris Christie helped Obama over the top with a glowing "post Sandy" tribute that elevated the "Commander-in-Chief" to Mother Teresa status.

People like me are completely politically irrelevant, and I will never again comment on or concern myself with the aforementioned coalition which has surrendered our culture, our heritage and our traditions without a shot being fired.

You will never again out vote these people. It will take individual acts of defiance and massive displays of civil disobedience to get back the rights we have allowed them to take away. It will take Zealots, not moderates--not reach-across-the-aisle RINOs to right this ship and restore our beloved country to its former status.

Those who come after us will have to risk their lives, their fortunes and their sacred honor to bring back the Republic that this generation has timidly frittered away due to "white guilt" and political correctness.....

I'm done.

There are MORE TAKERS THEN THERE ARE MAKERS!!!

El Presidente has such nice friends and fun stuff to do

Name: Lisa Zucco
Campaign role: Canvass captain, South Butler County team
Hometown: Plum, Pennsylvania
Based in: Cranberry Township, Pennsylvania

What does a day as a volunteer look like to you?

“We just had the weekend of action, so on Friday night, our Neighborhood Team Leader organized a team meeting where I made an impassioned speech about the virtues of door-to-door canvassing, and on Saturday volunteers met at my house to do canvassing shifts. We had two teams doing two shifts in the neighborhood, and I walked both of them.

“Then, we came back to my house and took a look at all of our commit to vote cards and completed our tally sheets. One thing I make sure to do is give every individual canvasser a count of the work they did that day. It’s good to make them feel that sense of accomplishment, and they’ll be able to track their progress online and keep at it. I also make sure to write down the names of anyone we met that day I think will be a strong volunteer. We don’t have a huge canvassing group in our team right now, but I want to build one. I’m always in recruitment mode.”

What’s your favorite part of your role?

“Canvassing is really my passion. I’ve been going door to door since I was a little kid, thanks to my parents' good example of activism and civic engagement. When I walk, I'm always glad to find die-hard supporters, but I really love persuading undecided voters to support the President! Just the other week, I met a woman who wasn’t sure who she’d be voting for in this election. She had lost her job recently, and had to take a significant pay cut, so she’s unhappy with how the economy has affected her. When I’m canvassing, I think about the fact that I’m talking to people who are just like me, and I try to relate to what they’re going through. So after hearing her story, we started talking about why she voted for President Obama in 2008, and eventually I got her to say she’d at least watch the debates and reconsider.

“That person-to-person contact is probably one of the most rewarding things. If I didn’t have to eat and sleep, I’d be out there canvassing.”

What's the most unexpected part of your role?

“Sometimes, when new people join the team, or people pitch in to walk an extra shift, you get the sense that they’re doing it for you, and not just the President. I think that’s probably the most unexpected thing for me: the sense of community within the team, how we go beyond working to support the President and work to support each other."

How did you first come to the campaign?

“I didn’t volunteer during 2008 because I had a new baby then. I had my hands full! But when Barack Obama became the nominee, I was really amazed. I followed President Obama’s accomplishments with a sense of pride. I’m so distraught with the attacks from the other side on women, civil liberties, and health care … I knew I had to get involved. I’m absolutely committed to making sure he stays in office for another four years—so much that I can barely sleep some nights!”

Tell us a fun fact about yourself.

“I’ll share one canvassing story. Once, I was canvassing for the President here in Pennsylvania, and I met a neighbor who had a Portuguese Water Dog, just like the dog that the First Family has. I’m a total dog person, so we chatted about that for a little bit, then she signed the President's petition and I made a note about visiting her again. Recently, I contacted her about getting involved, and I followed up by giving her a car magnet—the one with Bo that says ‘Bark for Barack.’ I figured, maybe she won’t sign up, but at least this will make her day. And she went wild. I’ve since seen her driving around town with that car magnet—and in our area, which is very conservative, it’s a pretty brave thing to do. I’m not sure whether she’ll volunteer—but I think I cemented her vote.”
