Also have our top five conservatives start being spokesmen on a national level to counter their bs. Lets go on offense for a change!!!!

What if the candidate needs to have 10 membres of the society to sign a nomination form in order to run for an executive position, but after the elections are over, I win, but later someone complains that my nomination form is invalid because i forged some signatures? (like 2 out of the 10). IIs it too late because the voting is done, and the issue should have been brought up before election day, or can the court revoke my president position? Hi.

Had a good crowd and there was an overabundance of tasty things to eat. From turkey and dressing to pulled pork bar-b-que to chocolate cake, cookies, and lots of other stuff. If you missed it you really missed out! Lots of great fellowship with our fellow Republicans and a great opportunity to celebrate the wins we achieved in Arkansas this year. We are considering a permanent home for the Garland Republican Party. The current campaign headquarters at 600 Ouachita is for sale and we have really enjoyed using it for the past several months. If you have any input on purchasing the current building or moving to other quarters for our meetings in the future, please contact me, Chuck Chatham (501)617-1656 or one of the other persons on the search committee, Brad Smith or Larry Rainey with you input. If you want it to be visible to everyone, leave a reply here. We could use as much input as possible for this really important decision for the future of the Republican Party in Garland County. Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas and a wonderful holiday season. Hope you have the opportunity to enjoy a great celebration with family and friends at this festive time of the year. Looking forward to seeing you all at our next meeting in January. What a great time we had at the Christmas party. Had a good crowd and there was an overabundance of tasty things to eat.

We must have morality in the pews for this is where we get our businessmen-women, people who run for office, etc. We have too many businessmen-women who have flushed morality or have said to their heart..."shade that for I need to buy a new bass boat besides I deserve more because my men-women worked hard." Some of these businessmen run for office and some of them get voted in because the people do not know them. That is our problem. One cannot have it both ways. No morality? Then no change. Then, one in business that is not properly managed will finally go broke. Again, it is back to the pews. Too many are sitting in the pews with deaf ears and cherry picking morality as if it is a cafeteria. If you are a deacon, elder, or church member, you had better listen to the Teacher for one cannot call wrong right and right wrong and expect the country to do otherwise. "The heart is wicked who can know it." Wonder why scripture said that? We must have leaders who do right even when no one is looking. Our young people's minds have been taken over by the other world. They are the "present" and future of our nation. What you see if what you are going to get without radical changes in the hearts of our people. Our pews have become stale with the "fire" insurance mentality whereas China's underground Christianity is thriving mightily. Is the Christian mantel being passed to another nation? I do not know but the Lord said if you do not praise me I can cause the rocks to praise me. WE have a long way to go returning to our Judo-Christian roots and I am not hearing of much stirring in the pews. For one thing, too many pastors are afraid of their congregations and another thing they are afraid of IRS whenever we do actually have freedom in the pulpit. Morality is not just a “piece”.

We have a lot to be proud of here in Arkansas that is to be sure. I am not so sure how the "battle of ideas" nationally plays out. Seems the main idea nationally was "keep the bennies rolling". Turns out we had 3 million less votes for Romney this year than McCain got in '08. What happened to those people? Democrats say we must court Hispanics, blacks, gays, and radical activists of all colors, and cite things like immigration reform. Turns out over 70% of Hispanics according to exit polls cited free benefits from Washington as their reason for supporting Obama, not immigration reform. They weren't voting for ideas, they were voting for Santa Claus. We can not turn into something that violates our core convictions to pander to a coalition of splinter groups as do the Democrats. It is hard to run against Santa Claus and that's what Obama managed to cast himself as this time. They voted for free stuff and were joined by the people that refused to vote for Romney because he wasn't their "ideal candidate". Together they formed a coalition that gave us the gift of four more years of Obama's extreme socialist agenda. That agenda will result in true hardships for the American people in the next few years. This whole mess will come to a fiscal head soon and we will likely see the same things here as you are currently seeing in Greece. It will mean hardships that we will make us look back at 2012 as the "good old days". At that point even the idiot contingent in the American voting block may become willing to try something new and unique like "the principles of Liberty, adherence to the Constitution and limited Government". I certainly hope so for the sake of my kids and grandkids. As for me, I hope I will see it in my lifetime, but at my age that might not happen. One thing for sure, we can't quit just because we lost an election. Liberty and the American way of life are just too precious. To each of you who took the time to reply, thanks for your responses.

The principles of Liberty, adherence to the Constitution and limited Government are NOT ideas that are being shared and promoted and adhered to. Instead we spend time, money and energy trying to win a popularity contest,instead of a contest of principles. What we get is a politician who, after the election is over, continues to try and BE POPULAR by holding onto their office, which eventually makes them unpopular with the people. Live principled, Vote principle and hold accountable according to principles. This is how "We the People" win our country back. John is right that morality is an important piece, but if we want to win elections we MUST win the battle of ideas,in the political arena, fighting with political weapons. If we want to win souls we must win them fighting a spiritual warfare, using spiritual weapons and win them to Christ. Arkansas and Garland County did a great job of winning of electing candidates to office and our heads should be held high for the accomplishment. The real work of politics begins the day after elections and we all must roll up our sleeves and work harder, longer and smarter than our opponents. Great loss can be followed by great victory if we learn from our own mistakes, which we can change. Good Job all! We didn’t “lose” an election; we lost a battle of ideas.

The root problem is "morality" or rather the lack thereof within our nation. "The love of money is the root of ALL evil" and we are seeing this in our nation. A common and true statement in our day is "follow the money." Sad. Disturbing. Recession is going to continue and perhaps worse. Fasten hour seat belts. Until the morality problem is resolved, LASTING positive changes will not occur. Nothing will change except further falling into the depths of crime in our cities as well as our nation. Our nation has been very sinful, more interested in what passes for pleasure rather than what is right. We are living in a time that calls "right wrong and wrong right". And by he way, that was predicted in scripture. Prayer changes things, including ourselves. Pray. Pray. Pray. I say again.
