"....How To Crash A Plane Or Sink A Ship Without Having To Actually Be ON The Plane Or The Ship...."

Speech was my college major.

 

Well, at least, during that one semester that my major wasn't marketing, English, primary education, philosophy, psychology, sociology.

 

Or welding.

 

Ironically, though, never political science.

 

Which seems odd, now, given that the art of interpreting politics seems to come so easily.

 

For example, I know exactly what the Democratic Party needs to do in order to insure not only decisive victories in the upcoming 2014 mid term elections but, also, very likely maintaining residency rights at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave come 2016.

 

Stand by.

 

Simple strategy shortly.

 

 

 

(CNN) – Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin reposted a quote from Martin Luther King, Jr.'s famous "I Have A Dream" speech on Monday–and took a swipe against President Barack Obama at the same time.

 

"Mr. President, in honor of Martin Luther King, Jr. and all who commit to ending any racial divide, no more playing the race card," she said in a Facebook post Monday, a holiday that marks the civil rights icon's birthday. 

While the 2008 GOP vice presidential nominee didn't give a specific example of Obama playing the "race card," her comment comes after the President referenced his race in a New Yorker article published over the weekend.

"There's no doubt that there's some folks who just really dislike me because they don't like the idea of a black President," Obama said.

The quote came in a section of the story about his declining poll numbers among white voters over the last year. He also lost the voting demographic by a wide margin in his 2012 re-election bid, the article notes.

According to CNN national exit polls, Obama won only 39% of the white vote.

"Now, the flip side of it is there are some black folks and maybe some white folks who really like me and give me the benefit of the doubt precisely because I'm a black President," Obama added.




First, a little twist of the plot.

Contrary to what instinct and/or hunch might inspire, the path about to be taken here has nothing to do with the potential debate on whether the former Alaska doorknob's Governor's take on all of this has, or has not, validity.

Primarily because the inevitable and inarguable laws of political physics are in play here.

Those who think Palin is a world class political mind will be unmoved by any argument and/or comment to the contrary.

Those who think that Palin is a doorknob lightweight will be equally unmoved by any argument, yada, yada.

What's offered here, by your humble former marketing, English, primary education, philosophy, psychology, sociology, welding major turned part time political postulator is simply the aforementioned and promised suggested strategy for Democratic victory in the next two to four years.

ATTENTION: Democrats (and, for that matter, any political participant of any kind other than card carrying, freely admitting to be members of the traditional Republican Party):

Stop any activity that even remotely runs the risk of discouraging Sarah Palin from opening her mouth and speaking.

Engage in any and all activities that will, in fact, encourage Sarah Palin to open her mouth and speak.

Include, in any text of ANY public remarks made during the forthcoming 2014 and/or 2016 political campaigns, direct and SPECIFIC mentions of the name Sarah Palin.

IMPORTANT: In each and every SPECIFIC mention of the name Sarah Palin, it is CRITICAL that the following phrase be used when making said specific mention of the former Alaska doorknob Governor:

     "REPUBLICAN Sarah Palin"

DO NOT, at any time, refer to the former Alaska doorknob Governor without referring to her as:

     "REPUBLICAN Sarah Palin"

Begin to think of it as her complete name.

As in "Mary Tyler Moore"

"Julia Louis-Dreyfus"

"Amy Farrah Fowler"

"Kim Kardashian" (this will allow for true Kardashian-ites whose taste in celebrities indicates they may struggle a little with basic math skills)

and "Jennifer Love Hewitt" as.......

      "REPUBLICAN Sarah Palin"


Trust me when I tell you that repeated use of that very key three word phrase will result in another three word phrase that practically guarantees defeat of the Republican Party in 2014, 2016 and any future years that the former Alaska doorknob Governor continues to publicly inject her unique brand of perspective and insight into the American mainstream.

Guilt by association.

Fear not, Democrats (and, for that matter, any political participant of any kind other than card carrying, freely admitting to be members of the traditional Republican Party) that damage will result from your opponents playing:

The race card.

The economy card.

The health care card.

The Benghazi card.

The IRS card.

The deficit card.

Or any card that the media can and/or will dub "the ____ card".

No worries.

As long as Sarah Palin is at the table ever ready to play the former Alaska Governor doorknob card.

Oops.

Sorry.

REPUBLICAN Sarah Palin.
