Friends,
First…to send comments, requests, recommendations, problems, etc to Patriots Revolt please use info@patriotsrevolt.com
Many of you sent comments when you completed the pledge form at Patriots Revolt web site. Those of you that commented will find your contribution below. This only reflects those that commented, not the entire list of those that pledged. There has been no editing or omissions.
The comments were offered in light of the stated goals of Patriots Revolt and as messages to Americas political leaders. Remember this movement was just started a few days ago….we are grass roots without any major national media source to help with our message. It takes me, you, your email list, your blog, your letter to your local paper, your family, your group, et al, to spread our message.
I sent a letter to editor, it was published in the local paper and resulted in six Patriots signing our pledge…..everyone can do the same..take some words from stuff I have sent, use your own words, word from our web site, whatever it takes to get a letter out…there is no pride of authorship in anything I write…you use it as your own if it fits.
Forgive the length of the email. The purpose of providing this feedback is for information and to share what America is thinking and to let you know we’re not alone…often we hear what polls say, what some talking head shares…..the comments below come from Americans that have been abandoned by the elite political apparatus in America….the tangible betrayal of American citizens is all around us…the rudder in America is broke.
It will be painful to restore what we have lost. For sure it won’t start by electing more of the same…selecting the “lesser evil” so to speak. It takes a measure of backbone, courage, guts, however one describes bucking the system and charting an “uprising” in America to stop the “criminal rape of our citizens”. I admit there is a certain amount of fear in electing a candidate…America is addicted to a political apparatus that is destroying our country…it may take a catastrophic event for America to begin the road to recovery.
When we have two presidential candidates that alienate ordinary, hard working Americans the way McCain and Obama do, it makes no sense to elect either one…..we have to do what we can to show the political establishment in America the “robot” like obedience to one party or the other is over.
I pray for a miracle to alter the conditions and choices we have for our presidential options.
Please use info@patriotsrevolt.com to send suggestions, to volunteer, problems, etc…

P.S. My prayer yesterday evening was that our web site would be overwhelmed with interest…it was and it was caused to crash…..our webmaster apologized to those that were trying to get on while it was down but couldn’t until he upgraded the site….I hate to make his life miserable by traffic crashing the site, but, then I don’t either…our message is getting out there and that’s part of the task.
HERE’S YOUR COMMENTS………….
Ron said: I should not have to hold my nose when I vote - and I won’t!
——————————————————————————–
Sam said: Start doing what we have elected you all to do. Stop the nonsense decision surrounding Washington these days. If the decisions made were a crime, all of you would be in Jail..So get with it..We the people want common Sense change.
——————————————————————————–
David says: We need change and not Obama’s type. McCain will not give the change this country needs either. They are both part of the problem not an answer to the problem.
——————————————————————————–
Bob says: America has had a non-working ‘broken’ Congress for far too long - - we MUST set term limits to eliminate the elitist/life-long/career politician who only consider themselves NOT America.
——————————————————————————–
Joe says: I 2want a LEADER
——————————————————————————–
Eve says: I have a bit of “change” you can believe in: many of you come up for re-election in 2008, 2010, and 2012–WE CAN CHANGE YOU OUT for representatives who work for OUR COUNTRY’S INTERESTS.
——————————————————————————–
Lloyd says: The Patriots Revolt needs to establish the Patriots Party and run true conservative candidates for state and federal elective offices. Also, you need a street or post office address where supporters can send information and donations.
——————————————————————————–
Tom says: I think this is the best chance to get our point across to our candidates and the congress.
——————————————————————————–
Jackie says: You must “Wake UP and smell the roses”. As has been stated, “Enough is Enough”, We won’t stand by and see our country’s sovereignty eroded. Pay attention to what your constituents want. After all, you are supposed to be serving the people and not the other way around. We must do every thing possible to keep America’s sovereignty in tack not go into a One World Government. I view this as the greatest danger to America
——————————————————————————–
Robert says: No more H1B Visas unless Americans can not be found for the jobs - Also, the person hired must be paid the going American wage for the job.
——————————————————————————–
Joan says: I strongly urge our politicians to put aside their party differences and enforce the safety, health & welfare concerns of the LEGAL United States Citizens. Also urge them to stop the attempt to remove God from our Nation. Without God in our lives in this country, we will soon cease to exist as a free nation in this world.
——————————————————————————–
PHD says: It is about time that those who are elected to represent “We the people . . . ” do just that, and not self-serve or deny the people that for which they yearn — honesty and transparency in government — and less of it. I would add that there be an irrevocable decision to deny any “loan” to any country that isn’t friendly and accepting of the United States of America.
——————————————————————————–
Samuel says: Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord!!!!!!!! Wake up and hear God speaking!
——————————————————————————–
Kenneth says: start doing what the American people want and demand
——————————————————————————–
Brad says: A move back to conservative values is a must and required for the preservation of our Republic.
——————————————————————————–
LE says: GOD Bless America!
——————————————————————————–
Joseph says: I am a Airborne Infantry Combat Veteran of the Vietnam War and a retired law enforcement officer. I went to Vietnam in 1968 a Democrat and returned in 1969 a Republican and have been a registered Republican ever since. I consider myself a Reagan Republican, however the Republican Party is straying from the once proud conservative party to a party who’s candidates will give in to liberal goals and ideas to retain their seats of power. Let us get back to American Values and Traditions.
——————————————————————————–
Herb says: To all who see these presents: Be advised that I refuse to support you unless the foregoing demands are met.
——————————————————————————–
Elizabeth says:We MUST have national leaders who believe in America’s sovereignty and in her Constitutional governance.
——————————————————————————–
Bill says: All Congress should remember that they are the servants and not the masters.
——————————————————————————–
Eva says: Stop the invasion of America NOW! Build that fence that you promised us NOW! Drill NOW!
——————————————————————————–
Luke says: The INVASION of the USA by 12 to 20 million criminals, illegals and terrorists and our governments failure to secure our borders and ports is proof that our elected officials have abandoned the American People. They all need impeached and then prosecuted for failing to defend our country from all enemies forge in and domestic. I will not stand by and let the politicians continue to refuse to protect this country and it’s people.
——————————————————————————–
Patti says: The time has come for those in positions in government to remember: they are where they are only in accordance with a social contract with the people, whereby we exchanged our votes as currency in exchange for their promises to represent us faithfully and to carry out policy as we dictate. A breach of this contract does have ramifications and we intend to see to it that those ramifications are carried out for the unfaithful, unlawful, and unconstitutional acts of those in government positions.
——————————————————————————–
Rick says: We dumped tyranny before, we can do it again!
——————————————————————————–
Connie says: I had to scold John and Cindy on a school campus for handing out tobacco products to youth. They seem to have a lot of misplaced concerns!
——————————————————————————–
Mark says: Congress is broken. Fix it or get out of Washington. The tax paying voters are sick and tired of the inaction of our government to get anything accomplished.
——————————————————————————–
Ed says: Do what you where elected to do, REPRESENT the people !!!
——————————————————————————–
David says: As things stand, Bob Barr will get my vote unless Dr. Ron Paul gets the Republican nod.
——————————————————————————–
Brian says: It is long overdue. To watch the so-called leaders of our country turn their backs on God, open our borders, sell out our country to foreign entities, condemn our military personnel, continue to ease punishment for lawlessness, invent more programs to give away tax money to people who choose not work, and raising our taxes to pay for it. It doesn’t take an overstuffed suit with a college degree to figure out the end result of this kind of leadership. We need to return to the basic common sense principles that made this country the envy of the world before it’s to late. The chickens will come home to roost, let’s pray there is no fox in the henhouse. God bless America!
——————————————————————————–
Daniel says: Take a look at Alan Keyes, or anyone else that wants to rid the Country of illegals,and FIGHT for Our rights under the 2nd amendment. And save American jobs.
——————————————————————————–
Lauren says: The Constitution limits the power of government, while it protects the power of the people.
——————————————————————————–
Bill says: ALLOF OUR TOP LEADERS AND MOST OF OUR MID LEADERS ARE TRAITORS We need patriots like Ron Paul and others like him to run this country
——————————————————————————–
Kevin says: A veteran — whether active duty, retired, national guard or reserve — is someone who, at one point in his/her life, wrote a blank check made payable to The “United States of America”, for an amount of “up to and including my life.” That is Honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it. –Author Unknown
——————————————————————————–
Greg says: As a disabled for life U.S.Army veteran of the Vietnam War I wholeheartedly voted for John McCain 1982 when he first ran for congress. I will not make the same mistake. Vote the constitution party. Baldwin/Castle. Darrell Castle is a disabled Nam vet and like Baldwin a Christian first American second. I don’t support Newt. Why ? He let the draft dodger in chief slide. Just say NO to Newt
——————————————————————————–
Larry says: Those elected to an office are there to serve the best interest of our country as put forth in the founding documents such as the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence just to name two
——————————————————————————–
Anthony says: The 55 MPH law caused substantially more wrecks because the improved drive handling rendered driving slow very boring. Wrecks will sky rocket. How about this one? Environmentalists are ecstatic that people are driving less because of gas prices. Are they ecstatic that we are forced to buy cheaper, less nutritional food to save money there too? You make me sick.
——————————————————————————–
ArJay says: This election cycle is one for the Guinness Book……the first national contest where both candidates are friggin’ DEMOCRATS! The “Manchurian McCandidate” will NEVER get my vote!
——————————————————————————–
Robert says: Right on!
——————————————————————————–
Colin says: I am so very proud of you!! This is exactly what has been needed, but too many of us (including me) thought it could never come about. It can; it must; it will !!
——————————————————————————–
Glenn says: Congress, both Republicans and Democrats alike, need to start doing the job they were elected to do. Stop the “in-house” fighting and stop catering to the big “power companies/businesses/groups”.
——————————————————————————–
Deb says: I believe our Founding Fathers set up the best way for the people of this country to be governed. The Constitution is not made up of “suggestions”. I also believe that this country and it’s Constitution are worth fighting for to the end.
——————————————————————————–
David says: Time to wake up !
——————————————————————————–
Vincent says: two additional need to addressed: 1)returning the current or future administrations to a Constitutional form of government. 2)Address the illegal wars, and the US becoming an aggressor nation. Thank you
——————————————————————————–
Don says: Read about President James K. Polk. He helped to build America. Today’s politicians are destroying America.
——————————————————————————–
Dan says: If you really want to fix “Social Security”, how about putting all of yourselves on it & getting rid of your personal pension plans ?
——————————————————————————–
Erika says: AMERICAN CITIZENS FIRST!!
——————————————————————————–
Lura says: We must do something to turn America away from Socialism. Individual Liberty is under assault. The Government continues to overstep their Constitutional bounds.
——————————————————————————–
Lou says: I was going to hold my nose and vote for McCain, but after his pandering to the racist groups, LULAC and La Raza, I can not with a clear conscience vote for him. He cares more about the Latino vote than mine, and he is trying hard to win the trust of Latinos but not mine. Only a commitment to Patriot Revolt demands could change my mind or my vote!
——————————————————————————–
Anthony says: FAIR TAX, TERM LIMITS
——————————————————————————–
Hugh says: you don’t even get it, do you McCain?
——————————————————————————–
Janet says: what ever happened to WE THE PEOPLE–neither one is good for this country
——————————————————————————–
Stephen says: Represent and communicate with the working citizens of your district. Establish term limits for all elected positions (Max eight years) or two full terms as president has.)! Term limits will keep the government officials from padding their pockets with excessive raises and minimize the weight of lobbyists and the power of there “gifts.”
——————————————————————————–
Steven says: I feel every problem facing this country can be directly traced back to the congress and I feel that every one of these men and women should be fired. Not voted out, it takes to long and never happens, but fired. Told to pack your crap and get the hell out. Then vote in awhole new batch to see if they want to do the bidding of the people and look after the welfare of the USA and her people. Not the interest of special interest groups who want to bring this country to its knees.
——————————————————————————–
Linda says: Grow up and work together!
——————————————————————————–
Patrice and Tony say: The United States of America needs a leader like Congressman Tom Tancredo - a true conservative, with integrity and principles!
——————————————————————————–
Gary says: lets get this thing going! thank you
——————————————————————————–
Pam says: It is about time someone had the guts to stand up and say what I believe most of us as Americans and Christians want.
——————————————————————————–
John says: It’s time to end the ‘Private Elite Club” on the Hill that doesn’t listen to the American People (U.S. citizens!).
——————————————————————————–
Michael says: No more business as usual
——————————————————————————–
Thor says: This government has committed treason against the nation. The American people formally declare the Second American Revolution.
——————————————————————————–
Kenneth says: Am proud to be a member, thx.
——————————————————————————–
Pamela says: I’m MAD as Hell and I’m not going to take it ANYMORE!!!!!!!
Isaiah 40:31 - But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.
