Political Strategy - Politics, Strategies, Tactics, News and Opinion
I am filled with fury and energy. I am on a quest.
I want to use all of my imagination and brains and experience and skills and strength for one goal. I want to get George W. Bush out of office by means of a large, surprisingly decisive popular vote, and a 100 point electoral victory. It's the most important thing I've ever had to do.
I don't want to spin my wheels. I don't want to preach to the choir. I don't want to waste time on those who will never be converted.
Who is on the fence? Who could still be undecided about this race for the presidency? I have debated with myself about reaching out to my extended family in swing-state Florida. I've considered e-mailing them all and finding out who's pro-W - but might be talked into staying home instead, and also who's anti-W - and needs to be pushed into getting out and voting.
But what would probably happen is more something like this: I contact them, ask about politics, and they get all pumped up about Bush (or other Republicans), and go out and vote GOP - when if I hadn't roused them from their slumber, they would never have stirred themselves to vote at all.
Quandaries like that make me want to do fewer specific operations, and more "atmospheric", viral, catalytic work. I've done many, many score pieces of art, some on specific topics, some generic and iconic. When those spread into the internet, they often take on a life of their own.
If I can make a piece of art that also has a clear idea in it that contributes to my goal of regime change, that feels like it might touch many, many minds as it spreads by web page and e-mail.
But who knows? Who can tell me? Would I have greater effect picking out an onboard discussion somewhere, a "mixed" board, and trying to pick off fence-sitters? That can't be efficient.
I'm seething! We must win! We must get this right!
How many of you have felt a low, throbbing, constant, deep anger every day since they called Florida for Bush? Do you find yourself doing the dishes, listening to NPR or Amy Goodman or Rush Limbaugh or ABC News and suddenly find yourself gritting your teeth, muttering, your hands gripping the edge of the sink at some new, astonishing provocation?
Do you read a story on CommonDreams or SmirkingChimp or BartCop or DemocraticUnderground, and then just want to pace around downtown, looking for someone with a BC04 sticker on their car so you can spit on the windshield?
And how productive is that, anyway?
AAGGH!
There's a lot of us out here. I've heard about a woman who writes on every piece of paper money she touches, in the margins, things like "Anybody But Bush - Haven't You Had Enough?" or that thing I posted yesterday "Kerry... or Revolution" or "Bush Must Go".
Sometimes, those efforts feel like they actually put ideas in front of eyes. But is it getting Bush back to Crawford? What will?
We have to make this happen. No matter what.
Point me at something.
