Political Power vs Political Access
“You have to be politically FEARED to be politically RESPECTED.”
We have written about this before (HERE) … but it seems time for a reminder.
The #1 mistake we see new people and groups getting involved in the political process … the mistake we made ourselves (so not judging) … is people confuse “Power” with “Access”.
Access “feels” nice. You are listened to, you have a seat at the table, your phone calls are returned … they say nice things about you … but access really means you are “Never being perceived as a threat.” You may think you are friends with these people … but as President Truman said, if you want a friend in Washington, get a dog!
Power however is actually getting a politician to do what you want them to do … even if that is as simple as getting them to do what they said they would do on the campaign trial … or to simply follow the Republican Platform.
[NOTE: Another novice “misunderstanding” is thinking people / politicians / GOP officials would never just outright lie to your face. Trust no one!!! Verify everything!!! Good people don’t mind you asking questions. Know that these people lie constantly.]
MAKING THE HARD “ASK”: But wait until you ask a legislator to do something … the basics … like provide us with Medical Freedom, take PORN Books out of our libraries and schools … or God forbid you ask them to give us CLOSED PRIMARIES!!!
Ask them specifically what they will do, and all of a sudden you will learn there are 1,000 “excuses” … and you will know the difference between “political access” and “political power”.
We have seen it with SCHOOL CHOICE. Kids are needlessly suffering, it is an easy fix, and even the most far right school choice supporters cower at the prospect of crossing the “establishment”. They know the issue, yet they won’t speak up. That is when you know their true character.
Once you ask for something objectively right to do, but against the power structure … you will find out real quick your “access” means nothing. We did!!!
Your phone calls will no longer be returned. You will finally understand that politicians only care about getting elected or re-elected … and you will learn that unless you have the ability to REPLACE THEM, what you want for “We The People” really won’t matter if what you ask for is “hard”.
On the wall at HQ:
“You have to be politically FEARED to be politically RESPECTED.”
As we stated the last time we discussed this topic … if you don’t see it yet, you will, so just give it time and keep asking questions.
But if you are still excited to get a “selfie” with Lindsey Graham, you are probably reading the wrong daily emails and might want to unsubscribe. 😉
