Political tags - such as royalist, communist, democrat, populist, fascist, liberal, conservative, and so forth - are never basic criteria. The human race divides politically into those who want people to be controlled and those who have no such desire.

If It Feels Good They Will Want To Do It Again
Topic: Out of Flyover Land

 I have this posted on the website I use for Local Political Issues

Hot Issues From Linn County Iowa

But the principles of a Bedrock Foundationn for Grassroots Political Activity can be applied I think in a healthy manner to any location or Party for that matter.

 
There has been some talk about a Precinct Initiative.

An enterprise I full heartedly endorse. There will be many plans and information forthcoming,'

Here are some of my ideas and what I hope will be useful tools.

Those who have been following my posts, may recall sometime back I posted a table with links to maps of the County Precincts.

Later I used the same format to post the Form As for all the Precinct Caucuses from last year.

Here I present that same format to be built into a table of Facebook Groups where residents of Precincts may communicate and inform each other.

I have started such a group for

Linn County Iowa Precinct 38 GOP

I ecourage you to form such a group for your precinct, send me the link and I will post it in the table. 

So once we have such a group how do we find real live people to join?

I have some suggestions.  A journey of ten thousand miles starts with a single step.

Do you know anyone in your precinct who is a Republican, or Conservative?

How about inviting them over for a backyard cookout?

I ask you, which would you be most likely to repsond positively to:

We are trying to organise Party Members in the Precinct in order to be more effective in Volunteer, Election and Fund Raising initiatives

 OR 

We are inviting a few families who have the same values and desires as we do by for a backyard cookout and we would like your family to join in?

I think FIRST we get to know each other.

That is a sound foundation for a politically healthy Precinct.

There will be other ideas  and I am certainly not trying to tell anyone NOT to do anything,

But how about trying this?  I think it will work. Why?

Because it would be FUN.

You spend a nice afternoon, with some good food and fellowship with folks that think like you, and you will ENJOY yourselves.

It will make you FEEL GOOD

If there is anything I have picked up over the years it is this:

You give someone something that makes them Feel Good?

They are going to want to do it again.
