Why did Colorado go blue? This will answer all your questions.

The video is 45 min or so but well worth your time.

Nice to see someone put together a concise video version of The Blueprint.

It's a great vid!!!

Leaves out the role of local media and the "independent" voter who wouldn't vote for a GOPer because he said something embarrassing according to media, so they voted for a Dim and gave away our state. Independents have determined every CO political outcome in my lifetime.

I think this explains why the recalls were successful. Independents bought Dims on media perception and then had buyer's remorse. Rinse/repeat.

Does touch on that pot connection so many of us here have pointed out.

Hopefully people are starting to see that the interests of the folks in Colorado are not being represented at the capitol and ask whose interests are being represented.

I know I'm spitting into the wind but would really prefer people used the historically correct color associations of Red = Democrat (Commies), Blue = GOP. Those were the traditional color associations used going back to the 1876 or so. The media changed the colors without any explanation in 1984. I suspect Republicans went along with it because in the 1980s, red was viewed as a "strong" color but it's also psychologically associated with being alarming and threatening while blue is calming and speaks to loyalty.

Colorado didn't "go blue", it veered socialist/anti-Western/anti-tradition/anti-Christian/pro-totalitarian, all in accordance with a predefined plan drafted by the Socialists and others who wanted to tear down traditional American society.

Wonderful video, but HOW do we get the word out - not just in CO, but across the nation?

How can we get the (few) conservative billionaires to intelligently levy some of their money in our cause to restore freedoms to the People?

Conservatives continue to remain divided over minor issues without focus on the big picture whereas the liberals have overcome petty differences with their eyes set on the end goal - and it's winning for them big time.

What strategy can we implement to unite conservatives, to mass our resources and to ignite our passion to others who desire maintaining their freedom over their own destiny?

I have lots of questions but very few answers.

I noticed this as well and wondered why I hadn't heard any discussion on the topic before.

The blue/liberal versus red/conservative association was a well executed maneuver which plays exceedingly well into the subconscious of citizens. Blue is a calming color and red is well associated with danger. Whether individuals realize it or not, this change of color association is manipulating them into their decisions. Just another cog in the play book to fundamentally change people perceptions.

If you want a successful political campaign, read, study and implement "The Art of War". If you don't follow the principles outlined by Sun Tzu, your campaign will surely fail. We really should have an "Art of War" section in the forum. COMSEC, OPSEC,OPSTEMPO, ad infinitum...

You should add Machiavelli's The Prince to that curriculum.

All the strategy in the world won't save us unless we are willing to organize and fund a consistent effort against Libs. The Gang of Four had time, money, and opportunity.

This has always been the weakness... Conservatives would rather pay higher taxes after losing then freely donate time/money to the cause of winning. Libs take our tax dollars and use them against us. We continue to pay Lib corps for goods/services and work as employees in Lib run corps. They now have the advantage in the private and public economies.

We voluntarily capitalize our enemy in the private economy while he decapitalizes us using the public economy.

This includes investing in our kids too so they can come into power rather than inherent loss... (And there's that public school conversation again.)

I dont know.. the party has done more than its share of shooting itself in the foot in this state with its choices as to candidates to push.
