Saul Alinsky wrote two books on the methodology of effective  political organizing without regard for any moral precept other than victory – Reveille for Radicals and Rules for Radicals.  The Clintons (especially Hillary) and now seemingly the entire Obama administration are Alinsky devotees or “Alinskyites.”  The constant clarion call of “change, change, change” rings throughout Rules for Radicals.  Deconstruct Alinsky, and you can predict Obama’s next move.

The Tea Party movement arose in opposition to Obama’s policies.  That’s why I joined, anyway.  In order to be effective, we need to be one step ahead.  We cannot afford to be reactionary because by then it’s already too late.  We need to get inside the Obama administration and be able to determine their next move.  Saul Alinsky is the key.

- My Action Plan –

Step One: Read Rules for Radicals.  Take notes.  Write in the margins.  Read like you’re preparing for the most important test of your life.  Study as though your life depended on it.

Step Two: Scour the Internet for information about Alinsky.  Don’t waste time re-inventing the wheel.  Put all the information you find in one place and share it with the world.

Step Three: Organize small group studies that deconstruct Rules for Radicals point-for-point and page-by-page.
