Today, August 2, 2010, the Aryan Nations has moved from talking about running for political office to actually doing it. Many of you read a previous post on the forum, and an article in the last issue of the Quarterly where I said I was considering it. I decided to put my money where my mouth is, so to speak.
I went down to my County's Registrar Of Voters Office (they were very helpful), and filed for the office of school board member. It's not the presidency by any means. But it is realistic. I'm certainly qualified. I have college degrees in education, and a teaching credential.
Here's the really hopeful part. There are two seats up for election. As of today, only myself and one other have filed. The deadline is this Friday. If no one else files, then I'm in!
It's only a local office, but we have to start somewhere, and we can't start at the top. JT Bowle's attempt at the presidency is proof of that. I'm not taking a shot at JT for his attempt by any means. He just shot for the moon with only a one stage rocket. Next time, if he sets his sights a little lower, like local elections, he'll have a chance, especially in a White friendly area like Laurens, SC. We must set realistic goals and go for them. That's what I've done, and I sincerely hope JT does too. I can see him as a city councilman. I know that ANP Chairman Suhayda agrees with me on this issue. Realistic goals, like local elections, and then we, and our respective organisations can start to work our way up to the higher levels. Success comes one step at a time.
Wish me luck!

American Hero Joe Arpaio Arrests Fifty Protesters At Own Jail.
Sheriff Joe - He's The Man
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W0B9A...layer_embedded
America’s hero has more guts than all the Feds combined… and that includes NigBama and the Marxist clown college, and you can throw his lame rear-ended administration into that mix for good measure. Joe Arpaio put an exclamation point to Arizona’s defiance of the Feds’ blatant abrogation of the Constitution and the state’s individual right to defend its citizens.
Illegals were bussed in from as far as Texas and California to demonstrate for non-existent ‘rights’ in our country. I guess La Raza couldn’t find enough local illegals to rabble rouse. Joe locked up 50 protesters from right on his own front porch, and has all the macho illegal tough guys in pink underwear, eating last weeks 20 cent baloney sandwiches. Joe then promptly sent out his troops to do an illegal alien sweep. Keep those cards and letters coming, Joe!
Also, a statement from a noted constitutional lawyers says that the Federal court which issued an injunction against Arizona's new law had no jurisdiction to do so. The constitution states that when the governor of a state is involved in his or her official capacity, only the Supreme Court has jurisdiction. This means that Judge Bolton's injunction is invalid, and Governor Brewer is under no legal obligation to comply.
Stand tough, Jan! We all know you can do it!

A Faerie Tale
The Age of Insanity
And it came to pass in the Age of Insanity that the people of the land called America , having lost their morals, their initiative, and their will to defend their liberties, chose as their Supreme Leader that person known as "The One".
He emerged from the vapors with a message that had no meaning; but he hypnotized the people telling them, "I am sent to save you. My lack of experience, my questionable ethics, my monstrous ego, and my association with evil doers are of no consequence. For I shall save you with Hope and Change.
Go, therefore, and proclaim throughout the land that he who preceded me is evil, that he has defiled the nation, and that all he has built must be destroyed." And the people rejoiced, for even though they knew not what "The One" would do, he had promised that it was good; and they believed. And "The One" said "We live in the greatest country in the world. Help me change everything about it!" And the people said, "Hallelujah! Change is good!"
Then He said, "We are going to tax the rich fat-cats." And the people said "Sock it to them!" "And redistribute their wealth." And the people said, "Show us the money!" And then He said, "Redistribution of wealth is good for everybody."
And Joe the plumber asked, "Are you kidding me? You're going to steal my money and give it to the deadbeats??" And "The One" ridiculed and taunted him, and Joe's personal records were hacked and publicized.
One lone reporter asked, "Isn't that Marxist policy?" And she was banished from the kingdom!
Then a citizen asked, "With no foreign relations experience and having zero military experience or knowledge, how will you deal with radical terrorists?" And "The One" said, "Simple. I shall sit with them and talk with them and show them how nice we really are; and they will forget that they ever wanted to kill us all!" And the people said, "Hallelujah!! We are safe at last, and we can beat our weapons into free cars for the people!"
Then "The One" said, "I shall give 95% of you lower taxes." And one, lone voice said, "But 40% of us don't pay ANY taxes." So "The One" said, "Then I shall give you some of the taxes the fat-cats pay!" And the people said, "Hallelujah!! Show us the money!"
Then "The One" said, "I shall tax your Capital Gains when you sell your homes!" And the people yawned and the slumping housing market collapsed. And He said, "I shall mandate employer- funded health care for EVERY worker and raise the minimum wage. And I shall give every person unlimited healthcare and medicine and transportation to the clinics." And the people said, "Give me some of that!"
Then he said, "I shall penalize employers who ship jobs overseas." And the people said, "Where's my rebate check?"
Then "The One" said, "I shall bankrupt the coal industry and electricity rates will skyrocket!" And the people said, "Coal is dirty, coal is evil, no more coal! But we don't care for that part about higher electric rates." So "The One" said, "Not to worry. If your rebate isn't enough to cover your expenses, we shall bail you out. Just sign up with ACORN and your troubles are over!"
Then He said, "Illegal immigrants feel scorned and slighted. Let's grant them amnesty, Social Security, free education, free lunches, free medical care, bi-lingual signs and guaranteed housing..." And the people said, "Hallelujah!!" And they made him King!
And so it came to pass that employers, facing spiraling costs and ever-higher taxes, raised their prices and laid off workers. Others simply gave up and went out of business and the economy sank like unto a rock dropped from a cliff. The banking industry was destroyed. Manufacturing slowed to a crawl. And more of the people were without a means of support.
Then "The One" said, "I am the "The One" - The Messiah - and I'm here to save you! We shall just print more money so everyone will have enough!" But our foreign trading partners said unto Him, "Wait a minute. Your dollar is not worth a pile of camel dung! You will have to pay more..." And the people said, "Wait a minute. That is unfair!!" And the world said, "Neither are these other idiotic programs you have embraced. Lo, you have become a Socialist state and a second-rate power. Now you shall play by our rules!"
And the people cried out, "Alas, alas!! What have we done?" But yea verily, it was too late. The people set upon "The One" and spat upon him and stoned him, and his name was dung. And the once mighty nation was no more; and the once proud people were without sustenance or shelter or hope. And the Change "The One" had given them was as like unto a poison that had destroyed them and like a whirlwind that consumed all that they had built. And the people beat their chests in despair and cried out in anguish, "Give us back our nation and our pride and our hope!!" But it was too late, and their homeland was no more.

Mandatory National Service Measure Orders US Citizens To Perform Duties Under Obama
Democrat: Let's have mandatory national service.
By Chelsea Schilling
A bill introduced in the House of Representatives by Rep. Charles Rangel, D-N.Y., would reinstate a compulsory military draft during wartime and require U.S. citizens not selected for military duty to perform a "national-service obligation" - as defined by President Obama - for a minimum of two years.
Rangel introduced the Universal National Service Act, or H.R. 5741, on July 15. The measure was referred to the House Armed Services Subcommittee on Military Personnel on July 23.
Rangel introduced similar bills in 2003, 2006 and 2007. His current bill does not have a co-sponsor.
Rangel took to the floor of the House to reintroduce H.R. 5741, stating, "I have introduced legislation to reinstate the draft and to make it permanent during time of war. It is H.R. 5741, and what this does is to make everyone between the ages of 18 and 42 - whether they're men or women, whether they're straight or gay - to have the opportunity to defend this great country whenever the president truly believes that our national security is threatened."
According to an announcement released by Rangel's office:
The bill provides for a national-service obligation - either military or civilian - for every citizen and permanent resident, male and female, of the U.S., aged 18 to 42.
Persons may be inducted to perform military service only if declaration of war is in effect, or if the president declares a national emergency necessitating the induction of persons to perform military service and immediately informs Congress of the reasons for the declaration.
Defines "national service" as either military or civilian service as defined by the president that promotes national or homeland security.
Gives the president the authority to establish the numbers of persons to be selected for military service and the means of selection.
Requires those not selected for military service to perform their national-service obligation in a civilian capacity for a period of two years.
Directs the president to prescribe the regulations necessary to carry out the act.
Deferments for education are only permitted through completion of high school, to a maximum age of 20.
Deferments may be made for physical or mental disability, or under claims of conscientious objector.
"What troubles me most about the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan is the total indifference to the suffering and loss of life among our brave young soldiers on the battlefield," Rep. Rangel said. "The reason is that so few families have a stake in the war which is being fought by other people's children.
"The test for Congress, particularly for those members who support the war, is to require all who enjoy the benefits of our democracy to contribute to the defense of the country. All of America's children should share the risk of being placed in harm's way."
Prison Planet writer Rob Dew referenced the following video posted on YouTube and noted, "This echoes the sentiment of President Obama who asked Congress in February 2009 to send him a bipartisan bill in the spirit of national service."

Well, since I'm over 42, this doesn't affect me. It's not my concern, right? WRONG! It's everyone's concern. Unfortunately, what I said is what most Americans over 42 will say. "Not my problem." This measure will give Obongo virtually unlimited resources to carry on this useless war for Israel, and the Judeo-Capitalists that are no doubt channeling money to his accounts. We must all write our congressmen and senators today and tell them to oppose this bill.
I don't know how much good I can do doing that. My congressman is Joe Baca, and my senators are Diane Feinstein and Barbara Boxer, three of the most left-wing liberals in the Capitol Building.

A bill introduced in the House of Representatives by Rep. Charles Rangel, D-N.Y., would reinstate a compulsory military draft during wartime and require U.S. citizens not selected for military duty to perform a "national-service obligation" - as defined by President Obama - for a minimum of two years.
Rangel introduced the Universal National Service Act, or H.R. 5741, on July 15. The measure was referred to the House Armed Services Subcommittee on Military Personnel on July 23.
Rangel introduced similar bills in 2003, 2006 and 2007. His current bill does not have a co-sponsor.
Rangel took to the floor of the House to reintroduce H.R. 5741, stating, "I have introduced legislation to reinstate the draft and to make it permanent during time of war. It is H.R. 5741, and what this does is to make everyone between the ages of 18 and 42 - whether they're men or women, whether they're straight or gay - to have the opportunity to defend this great country whenever the president truly believes that our national security is threatened."
According to an announcement released by Rangel's office:
The bill provides for a national-service obligation - either military or civilian - for every citizen and permanent resident, male and female, of the U.S., aged 18 to 42.
Persons may be inducted to perform military service only if declaration of war is in effect, or if the president declares a national emergency necessitating the induction of persons to perform military service and immediately informs Congress of the reasons for the declaration.
Defines "national service" as either military or civilian service as defined by the president that promotes national or homeland security.
Gives the president the authority to establish the numbers of persons to be selected for military service and the means of selection.
Requires those not selected for military service to perform their national-service obligation in a civilian capacity for a period of two years.
Directs the president to prescribe the regulations necessary to carry out the act.
Deferments for education are only permitted through completion of high school, to a maximum age of 20.
Deferments may be made for physical or mental disability, or under claims of conscientious objector.
"What troubles me most about the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan is the total indifference to the suffering and loss of life among our brave young soldiers on the battlefield," Rep. Rangel said. "The reason is that so few families have a stake in the war which is being fought by other people's children.
"The test for Congress, particularly for those members who support the war, is to require all who enjoy the benefits of our democracy to contribute to the defense of the country. All of America's children should share the risk of being placed in harm's way."
Prison Planet writer Rob Dew referenced the following video posted on YouTube and noted, "This echoes the sentiment of President Obama who asked Congress in February 2009 to send him a bipartisan bill in the spirit of national service."
