WE HAVE EXCELLENT NEWS FOR YOU GUYS FROM THE STATE OF NEW
MEXICO AND WOLF-PAC.COM.
WE ARE NOT DONE YET, WE WILL NEED YOUR
HELP AND THERE ARE ONLY TWO DAYS LEFT, IT IS IN FACT PANIC TIME.
FIRST, THE GOOD NEWS, DEMOCRACY IS ALIVE AT THE STATE LEVEL.
YET
ANOTHER BIPARTISAN VOTE, FIRST LET ME TELL YOU HOW YOU CAN
HELP.
ALISON@WOLF-PAC.COM.
IF YOU ARE IN NEW MEXICO, EMAIL HER
RIGHT NOW.
THEY NEED TO PASS THE HOUSE AND IF THEY DO IT BECOMES
A STATE NUMBER SIX -- DON'T YOU HAVE TO PASS THE SENATE FIRST?
WE JUST PASSED IT YESTERDAY!
27/14, IT PASSED THE SENATE IN
NEW MEXICO, WITH THE HURL WOULD HELP OF STATE LEGISLATURES
THEIR.
ANOTHER BIPARTISAN WIN, BOTH DEMOCRATS AND REPUBLICANS
VOTED FOR THAT, AND ALL THE PEOPLE WHO VOTED FOR IT SHOULD
GET TREMENDOUS CREDIT, ESPECIALLY BECAUSE IN THIS CASE
THE LOBBYISTS ARE ON TO US.
IT'S NOT JUST THE RIGHT WING BY THE
WAY, ALSO LEFT-WING LOBBYISTS, COMING AROUND SAYING HOW DARE
YOU -- I WILL LEAVE OUT THE GROUP FOR NOW, BUT A LEFT-WING
LOBBYIST GROUP, THAT ALLISON YOU WILL EMAIL TO GET INVOLVED IN
THE FIGHT, THEY SAID THAT'S JUST THAT CHICK FROM CALIFORNIA WHO
HAS LIKE A RELIGIOUS FOLLOWING.
WHAT?
AND THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO
BE LIBERALS.
NO, YOU KNOW WHO THAT QUOTE UNQUOTE CHICK FROM
CALIFORNIA IS?
SHE WAS A SCHOOLTEACHER IN ORANGE COUNTY
AND SHE JOINED WOLF PAC, SHE NEVER EVEN HEARD OF THE YOUNG
TURKS, SHE JUST WANTED TO GET MONEY OUT OF POLITICS, SHE
RESEARCHED IT AND FOUND US, SHE VOLUNTEERED AND MOVED ON UP THE
RANKS AND BECAME ONE OF THE NATIONAL DIRECTORS.
UNLIKE THOSE
GUYS WE DON'T HAVE A CULT OF PERSONALITY, THIS IS OVER 35,000
VOLUNTEERS.
WHY DIDN'T PASS THE SENATE DESPITE ALL HIS LOBBYISTS
THAT WERE AGAINST IT?
NOT ONLY THE GREAT WORK OF THOSE
LEGISLATURES, BUT YOU KNOW WHAT INFLUENCED THEM?
YOU GUYS DO.
EVERY TIME THERE WAS A COMMITTEE HEARING THERE WOULD BE 50 WOLF
PAC VOLUNTEERS ALL FROM NEW MEXICO, ALL FROM THEIR DISTRICT,
THEY WERE LIKE WE'VE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THIS, THAT IS WHY
WE NEED YOUR HELP RIGHT NOW.
THERE ONLY TWO DAYS LEFT, GO TO
THE HOUSE AS IT NEEDS TO PASS THE SENATE AND THE HOUSE, THEN
NEW MEXICO BECOMES A STATE NUMBER SIX.
HOW DOES IT WORK,
WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE STATE NUMBER SIX?
THERE ARE TWO WAYS
TO AMEND THE CONSTITUTION, THIS IS FOR ELECTION REFORM FOR FREE
AND FAIR ELECTIONS.
THAT IS WHY WE GET BIPARTISAN VOTES,
REPUBLICANS ALSO LIKE THAT.
THERE ARE TWO WAYS, ONE IS
THROUGH CONGRESS, YOU THINK TWO THIRDS OF CONGRESS, THAT SWAMP,
WILL SAY GO AHEAD, GET THE MONEY OUT OF POLITICS?
OH, IT'S
RIGGED?
IT IS RIGGED TO PUT ME IN OFFICE, WHY WOULD I FIX THAT
SYSTEM?
THEY WON'T DO IT AT THE NATIONAL LEVEL, BUT THE FOUNDING
FATHERS WERE BOTH GENIUSES AND ACTUAL REVOLUTIONARIES, THEY PUT
A SECOND WAY TO DO A REVOLUTION IN THE DOCUMENT.
THEY SAID YOU
CAN GET AN AMENDMENT TO THE STATES, 34 STATES TO CALL FOR A
CONVENTION, AT THE CONVENTION YOU DISCUSS THE AMENDMENT AND
PROPOSE IT.
EITHER WAY, YOU NEED 38 STATES TO RATIFY THE AMENDED.
SO DON'T BELIEVE ANY DEMAGOGUERY ON THE LEFT OR RIGHT ABOUT THIS,
IT'S IN OUR CONSTITUTION FOR A REASON, FOR EXACTLY THIS REASON.
I GOT TO SHOW YOU SOME OF THE HEROES HERE IN NEW MEXICO.
SENATOR ORTIZ PINO, HE IS OUR SPONSOR FOR THIS SENATE
RESOLUTION, FOUGHT FOR IT TOOTH AND NAIL, ONE OF THE NEW
FOUNDING FATHERS AS WE GET OUR DEMOCRACY BACK.
>>JOINT RESOLUTION 12 IS FREE AND FAIR ELECTIONS RESOLUTION,
IT CALLS FOR AN AMENDMENT TO OUR U.S. CONSTITUTION THAT WILL
RESTORE FREE AND FAIR ELECTIONS IN AMERICA.
SINCE CONGRESS IS
INCAPABLE OF SOLVING, IT SEEMS THESE DAYS, ANY PROBLEM, THE
RESOLUTION CALLS FOR A LIMITED ARTICLE V AMENDMENT CONVENTION
TO PROPOSE AN AMENDMENT THAT WOULD DEAL WITH THE INSOLENCE OF
MONEY IN OUR ELECTIONS.
MOST AMENDMENTS TO THE CONSTITUTION
START THIS WAY.
THE STATES BEGIN CALLING FOR A CONVENTION, AND
EVENTUALLY CONGRESS GETS THE MESSAGE AND MAKES THE
AMENDMENT THEMSELVES, PROPOSES THE AMENDMENT THEMSELVES.
>>HE IS EXPLAINING THAT FOR TWO IMPORTANT REASONS, ONE, THERE
ARE TALKING POINTS, AND WE TRACE THEM ALL THE WAY BACK, SOME
GROUPS ON THE LEFT USE THAT TOO -- A CONVENTION THAT WOULD BRING
REAL CHANGE?
IF YOU ARE ON THE LEFT YOU SHOULD WANT CHANGE.
THE
PEOPLE ON THE RIGHT, THE GOOD THING IS, THEY WANT CHANGE.
THAT
IS WHY THEY VOTED FOR TRUMP.
RIGHT OR WRONG, THEY THINK THIS SYSTEM IS SCREWING US.
>>AND A LOT OF DEMOCRATS VOTED FOR TRUMP.
>>BECAUSE THEY ARE DESPERATE FOR CHANGE.
BUT ELITES HATE
CHANGE.
THAT'S WHY THEY HATE THE CONVENTION.
CONVENTION, THAT IS
REAL CHANGE, DON'T DO THAT.
WE TRACED TALKING POINTS BACK ABOUT
RUNAWAY CONVENTIONS, THE JOHN BIRCH SOCIETY CAME UP WITH THAT.
THE SAME GUYS WHO THINK ABOUT STUFF LIKE FLUORIDE IN THE WATER
AND EISENHOWER WAS A COMMUNIST, THOSE GROUPS CAME UP WITH
TALKING POINTS ABOUT HOW CONVENTIONS, THAT WOULD
BRING REAL CHANGE, DON'T DO IT.
>>GUYS LIKE MARK LEVIN HAVE BEEN PUSHING THE NOTION OF A
CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION FOR A LONG TIME, SO EVEN IF THEY DON'T
AGREE WITH THE OUTCOME YOU CAN GET THEM ON BOARD WITH THE
PURPOSE OF HOLDING ONE IN THE FIRST PLACE.
>>THAT'S WHY THE ELITES HATE IT, LEFT AND RIGHT CAN AGREE.
AND
YOU DON'T HAVE TO AGREE ON WHAT THE CONVENTION SHOULD BE, YOU
CAN ONLY HAVE ONE ON ONE TOPIC AT A TIME, IF LEVIN WANTS TO
HAVE IT ON SOME CONSERVATIVE TOPIC, LIBERALS FREAK OUT --
THEY GET TO USE DEMOCRACY TOO?
YES, THEY ALSO GET TO VOTE,
THAT'S WHAT DEMOCRACY MEANS.
AND THE SOLUTION OF SOME OF THEM ON
THE LEFT IS, WE SHOULD UNILATERALLY DISARM.
WE
SHOULDN'T USE A CONVENTION AT ALL.
NO, IT'S IN THE
CONSTITUTION, USE IT.
IT'S AN AGENT OF CHANGE.
HE'S EXPLAINING
YOU HAVE TO GET TO 34 STATES, AND I HAVE ANOTHER SENATOR WHO
WILL TALK ABOUT IT IN A SECOND, FIRST LET ME GO TO SENATE
MAJORITY LEADER PETER WORTH, WITHOUT HIM THERE'S NO WAY THIS
THING PASSES.
HE GIVES ANOTHER ARGUMENT.
>>IT HAS CHANGED THE LANDSCAPE SO DRAMATICALLY THAT I HAVE
GRAVE CONCERNS FOR OUR DEMOCRATIC PROCESS MOVING
FORWARD, GIVEN THESE HUGE AMOUNTS OF UNLIMITED MONEY THAT
ARE IN THE SYSTEM.
SO THIS IS A WAY FOR THE PEOPLE TO EXPRESS
THEIR FRUSTRATIONS AND THEIR CONCERN BY COMING AND PUSHING
SOMETHING LIKE THIS, AND I CAN'T GIVE ENOUGH KUDOS TO ALL OF THE
YOUNG PEOPLE WHO HAVE GOTTEN INVOLVED IN THIS ISSUE WHO CARE
AND ARE LOOKING AT OUR FUTURE.
SO I HAVE CERTAINLY LISTENED TO THEM.
>>WE WANT TO BRING DEMOCRACY BACK, YOU DO THAT BY GETTING THE
CORRUPTING INFLUENCE OF MONEY OUT, BUT I ALSO WANT YOU TO
REMEMBER THAT DEMOCRACY EXISTS AT THE STATE LEVEL.
SO SEEING
POLITICIANS ACTUALLY STAND UP FOR YOU IS KIND OF AN AMAZING
SITE.
WE ARE USED TO THE SOMEWHAT OLDER MIDDLE-AGED
POLITICIANS WHO GET UP AND TELL YOU, NO, WILL COMPANIES AND
DEFENSE CONTRACTORS ARE GREAT, YOUR KID DOESN'T NEED AN
EDUCATION.
HERE ARE POLITICIANS WHO GIVEN THEM, WHO ARE RESPONSIVE TO
THESE CITIZENS SAYING I WANT FREE AND FAIR ELECTIONS AND
I'M FROM ACROSS THE POLITICAL SPECTRUM, THEY RECOGNIZE IT
AND FIGHT FOR YOU.
AMAZING.
>>AND SOME OF THAT IS BECAUSE IT IS CHEAPER TO RUN FOR OFFICE
IN THESE STATES, AND THEY SEE HOW MONEY IS STARTING TO TRICKLE
IN.
IT USED TO BE JUST CALIFORNIA AND NEW YORK AND BIG
CITIES, NOW IT'S STARTING TO TRICKLE INTO RURAL COMMUNITIES
AND THEY ARE LIKE, WE DON'T WANT TO HAVE TO DIAL FOR DOLLARS 80%
OF THE TIME.
IT CHANGES THE FORMAT OF HOW POLITICS WORKS AT
THE STATE LEVEL.
AND MY FRUSTRATION IS THAT IT'S NOT
JUST THAT THE ESTABLISHMENT DOESN'T WANT THIS CONVENTION FOR
THE SAKE OF HEARING THE OPPOSITION, IT'S THAT THEY WANT
TO STIFLE IDEAS.
WHEN YOU DON'T PUT THE OPPOSING SIDES AT THE
SAME TABLE TO TALK THINGS OUT, GUESS WHAT -- THOSE CENTRISTS,
SUDDENLY THEIR IDEAS GET PUSHED OUT BECAUSE IT'S OBVIOUS WHERE
THE RIGHT IDEAS ARE.
>>AND BERNIE SANDERS HAS SHOWN, THEY SAW WHAT HAPPENED DURING
THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION, HE WAS OUTPACING HILLARY CLINTON
FOR SEVERAL MONTHS WITH SMALL DOLLAR DONATIONS.
SO THEY SEE
THAT THE BIG-MONEY MACHINE DOESN'T NECESSARILY EQUATE
TO GETTING YOU IN OFFICE OR KEEPING YOU IN OFFICE.
>>ON NOMI'S POINT, THERE ARE A LOT OF REPUBLICANS WHO VOTE FOR
THIS LEGISLATION BECAUSE THEY ARE LIKE, WAIT, I DON'T WANT
ROVE OR BLOOMBERG TELLING ME WHAT TO DO AT THE STATE LEVEL.
SO THIS DOESN'T HELP ME AT ALL.
IT HELPS THE NATIONAL GUYS WHO
HAVE MONEY FROM THESE DONORS BY THE MILLIONS AND OVERALL BY THE
BILLIONS.
AND WHEN HE SAID, THE FIRST SPEAKER THERE, SAID THAT
MOST AMENDMENTS HAPPEN BY CALLING FOR A CONVENTION, I
DON'T KNOW IF YOU KNOW THAT, A LOT OF PEOPLE DON'T, IT'S THAT
THE THREAT OF THE CONVENTION SCARES THE BEJEEZUS OUT OF
CONGRESS, AND MORE THAN HALF OF OUR AMENDMENTS HAVE BEEN PASSED
BECAUSE OF A THREAT OF A CONVENTION.
SO IT WILL GET TO A
POINT WHERE THEY ARE ABOUT TO HAVE A CONVENTION -- EVEN FOR
THE DIRECT ELECTION OF SENATORS, NONE OF THE SENATORS WERE
ELECTED THAT WAY, THEN THEY HAVE THE CONVENTION, AND THEN OH
YEAH, WE MEANT DIRECT ELECTION.
THIS IS SENATOR IVEY SOTO --
>>IF SOMEONE IS CONCERNED ON THE RIGHT AS TO HOW MANY BLUE STATES
MIGHT TRY TO MANIPULATE OUR CONSTITUTION, IF SOMEONE IS
CONCERNED ON THE LEFT AS TO HOW MANY RED STATES MIGHT TRY TO
MANIPULATE OUR CONSTITUTION, IN THIS LAST ELECTION 30 STATES
VOTED FOR TRUMP AND 20 VOTED FOR CLINTON, AND IT TAKES 38 STATES
TO AMEND OUR CONSTITUTION.
SO NOT ONLY, MISTER PRESIDENT,
COLLEAGUES, WOULD WE BECOME NUMBER SIX OF A GOAL OF GETTING
TO 34 UNLESS CONGRESS TAKES ACTION BEFORE THAT, THE
RATIFICATION WOULD REQUIRE BOTH BLUE STATES AND RED STATES, OF
ANYTHING THAT CAME OUT OF THERE.
AND IF WHAT CAME OUT OF THERE
WAS NOT THOUGHTFUL AND BALANCED, IT WOULD NOT GET RATIFIED.
SO I
FEEL, AS SOMEONE WHO LOVES OUR COUNTRY AND LOVES OUR
CONSTITUTION AND BELIEVES IT IS A WONDERFUL DOCUMENT THAT IS
VERY FORWARD-LOOKING, I FEEL COMFORTABLE SUPPORTING THIS.
BECAUSE OF SUPPORTING THIS, WHAT WE ARE DOING TODAY IS SAYING
CONGRESS, HEY, PAY ATTENTION.
LISTEN TO US.
THERE IS AN ISSUE
HERE.
>>ABSOLUTELY.
HE MAKES TWO GREAT POINTS, WHEN YOU JUST HEARD
RIGHT THERE WHICH IS ALL THE FEAR MONGERING ON THE LEFT AND
THE RIGHT, WHAT IF THEY SAY WE SHOULD SHRED THE CONSTITUTION
AND HAND IT TO THE LIZARD PEOPLE -- 38 STATES ARE GOING TO
AGREE
WITH THAT.
THERE IS ONLY ONE THING SUCH A HUGE PROPORTION OF
THE AMERICAN PEOPLE AGREE WITH -- OTHER THAN SOCIAL SECURITY --
IT'S ELECTION REFORM.
AND YOU KNOW HOW MANY CONVENTION CALLS
THERE HAVE BEEN?
700, BUT THEY ARE ON DIFFERENT TOPICS SO
THAT'S WHY WE NEVER HAD A CONVENTION.
YOU NEED 34 ON ONE
TOPIC, NEW MEXICO CAN BE NUMBER SIX ON THIS TOPIC OF ELECTION
REFORM, BUT THE VOTE IN THE HOUSE IS IN TWO DAYS SO YOU HAVE
TO GO RIGHT NOW.
IF YOU ARE IN NEW MEXICO, ALISON@WOLF-PAC.COM.
YOU SWING THESE REPRESENTATIVES MORE THAN YOU CAN IMAGINE.
MAKE
IT HAPPEN RIGHT NOW.
