The events will feature a Health Care Reform Bus rolling into the first of 11 cities :Phoenix, Albuquerque, Denver, Des Moines, Pittsburgh, Raleigh, Charlotte, Milwaukee, St. Louis, Indianapolis and Columbus, Ohio. One would think these rallies are open to the public.
The planning of these events has been ongoing – The President’s campaign site: Organizing for America (or My Barack Obama.com) has been holding a series of organizational meetings – one of which took place in Utica NY today. The Organization’s website reports that over 280,000 “activities” spoke with the President and received this message:
“Remember one thing. Nothing is more powerful than millions of voices calling for change. That’s how we won this election. You know this and that’s why since OFA launched its Health Care Reform campaign in June, you’ve hosted 11,000 events in more than 2,500 towns in every single state and every single congressional district…I am absolutely confident that we can get this done, but I want everyone to remember, this has never been easy..We are not going to give up now. We are going to get this done.”
What does the President of the United States do when his poll numbers are plummeting and his programs are unpopular with the majority of Americans? – He works through his campaign arm (when does he stop campaigning?) to illustrate to the public (via the media) with loud voices (those participating members of his campaign aided by other likeminded community organizations) that this plan is exactly what the public wants, regardless of any facts. Additionally, one can anticipate that these “well-attended” rallies will be heralded as real American’s expressing their First Amendment Rights, rather than “mobs of Anti-American, Insurance Company plants” which attended, and continue to attend Health Care forums and debates nationwide.” The tactics of those who scream the longest and loudest, are outlined here at Hillbuzz.org a virtual primer for Conservatives, Independents, Republicans and Moderate Democrats on getting one’s point across, no specifically discussed (although not related to) are the tactics being used by the Obama campaign arms. It is a must read in order to understand the Progressive mindset.
