Why we do what we do!

Article 6 of the US Constitution requires the members
of both houses of Congress to "be bound by their
oath" to support the Constitution. The exact words in
the last paragraph of Article 6 in the US Constitution
are as follows:
"The Senators and Representatives before
mentioned, and the Members of the several State
Legislatures, and all executive and judicial Officers,
both of the United States and of the several States,
shall be bound by Oath or Affirmation, to support this
Constitution; but no religious Test shall ever be
required as a Qualification to any Office or public

Nevada “Winged It”
By: Tony Warren, Pacific Area Director
National Precinct Alliance
With blitzkrieg speed and determination, the GOP in
Nevada was transformed from a demoralized group of
moderates, into a reenergized and determined
Constitutional Conservative Party. The “Precinct Plan”
isn’t a new idea. In fact, it has been around for years,
but none of us had ever heard of it before. We had no
blueprint to go by. All we had was an idea that made
sense to about 30 members of our little group who
attended our second meeting. We took a vote and
made infiltrating and taking over the Clark County GOP
our goal. Quite an ambitious goal for so few that had
no real political experience or knowledge, but we knew
there was no time to form a political party or change
anything else. We had to harness the power of the Tea
Party Movement and do it quickly.
We also knew that 30 people was not enough make the
changes we wanted to make, but we had just attended
a Tea Party with over 1000 patriots gathered in a park
protesting on April 15th. Tea Party people, our kind of
people, all demanding the government listen to us. But
how to bring them together for a single goal was the
question. We reached out to them using the internet
and word of mouth. We used Facebook, Meetup.com,
and any conservative group we could find in our area
by searching the internet. Our plan was not met with
overwhelming enthusiasm, but enough people listened
and agreed to give it a try.
We got the date and location of the next party meeting
off the County GOP website, formed a coalition of like
minded groups and about 100 of us attended that next
meeting of the Clark County GOP Central Committee.
We soon discovered were still a year away from the
precinct elections but we were just in time for the party
leadership elections and we could vote in it at the next

Trust under the United States". Yet, much of the
legislation in the last 80 years passed through
the House and the Senate, address provisions
that are clearly outside the Constitutional
Authority of the federal government.
The words most overlooked are the words
binding the members of the “several State
Legislatures and all Executive and Judicial
Officers, both of the United States and of the
several States”. Our Founding Fathers placed
this required Oath or Affirmation, to support the
Constitution, to bind State Legislatures and all
Executive and Judicial Officers from acting
outside the bounds of the U.S. Constitution.
They also knew the state legislatures would
choose the two U.S. Senators representing their
state whose representation embody the
sovereignty of each state. In 1913, through
ratification of the seventeenth amendment of the
U.S. Constitution, the sovereignty of the
individual states was relinquished and our great
Republic morphed into a Mass- Ruled
Democracy. This was not the intention of our
Founding Fathers. Article 1 Section 3 of the
Constitution was included purposely as a check-
and-balance to thwart any attempt of the Federal
Government to repress the people.
George Washington said: Government is not
reason; it is not eloquent; it is force. Like fire,
it is a dangerous servant and a fearful master.
Why do I say all this?
My intention is not advocatory for the repeal of
the seventeenth amendment, but to say this; the
time is now at hand which will determine whether
Americans are to be free men or slaves.
What does this have to do with what we do?
Not only did our Founding Fathers establish a
Republic, they established a Republic Of By and
For the People. They intended for the grass-
roots citizens to rule precinct-by-precinct. In the
way our states’ sovereignty was hijacked,
through lack of commitment to our system of self-
government, in an equivalent way, the whole of
our country has been hijacked and the process of
self-government hidden right under our nose due
to apathy, lack of participation and commitment.
We are not stupid people but have chosen
stupidity and to ignore the process of policy.
So, what is the answer? What are we to do?
The solution is really very simple... Get involved!
Newsletter
The Tea Parties and the 912 Project have energized
millions of concerned Americans. But even after the
magnificent September 12th, 2009 march on
Washington D.C. – in which over 1.5 Million
participated in the nation’s capital – most participants
have an uneasy feeling that nothing essential has
changed. And they are right…
Something is missing!
Millions of Americans are asking: “What can I do?”
And almost no one will give them the answer.
The Answer is the Missing Action
Ingredient…The Precinct Strategy!
The Precinct Strategy is the only peaceful and
constitutional way to take back our nation. It’s been
around for over 200 years – but it’s been
“obscured”... hidden through ignorance and the lack
of diligent citizenry for many years. Now that we
know, it is time to move this silent majority GIANT
into action to locate and elect individuals into the
office of “Precinct Executive”… individuals that will
adhere to the constitutional principles of limited
government, free markets, and individual freedoms.
Why run for Precinct Executive?
What do we want to accomplish by this? How do we
as a nation get back to constitutional principles of
limited government, free markets, and individual
freedoms? We see the candidates. But where do the
candidates come from?
The candidates, democrat and republican, who win
public office will almost always be the candidate
endorsed by the local PARTY LEADERS. One of
those two candidates, either the republican or the
democrat, will be elected in November, and go to
Congress to make the laws, and determine much of
our country’s future. This is very obvious to most
Americans. What is not obvious is what is happening
at the grassroots level. Every two years there is an
election most Americans are not aware of… the
election of our Precinct Executives. The Precinct
Executives elect the Party Leaders and the Party
Leaders endorse the candidates for office. Hence,
the only way Americans can fire the current local
county Party Leaders is through the Precinct System
by electing like-minded Precinct Executives.
How does this effect change?

Rule # 1:
People Are Policy. What that means is this… if you
want to change the law, if you want to change policy;
you have to change the people that make the policy.
The Precinct Executive is where policy will start.
Rule # 2:
If Your Name is not On the Ballot, You're Not Going to
Win. For our Senator or Representative to win the
November General Election and begin to reverse
policy we have to get their names on the ballot. We
must ensure they win the Party Primary election. If we
want to change the people who change the policy, it
becomes our job to make sure that our Senator or
Representative wins the primary.
Rule # 3:
Only Candidates Endorsed By The Party Win The
Primary. Republicans and democrats alike trust their
Party Leaders to make the correct decision in
endorsing their candidate. If we are going to change
the people who make policy, we must ensure that our
Senator or Representative is endorsed by the Party so
their name will appear on the ballot.
Where do endorsements come from? The party is
made up of members of the Executive Committee.
And it is the Executive Committee that gives the
Party's endorsements.
Both Democrats and Republicans have their own
Executive Committee in every county. This
Committee decides whose name will go on the ballot
at the primaries. The endorsed candidates consistently
win. It is vital that we understand this process. It is
through this process we regain control of our country.
If we want change, we must take control at the
grassroots. It is our job to elect Precinct Executives
that will adhere to the constitutional principles of
limited government, free markets, and individual
freedoms... and Precinct Executives that will elect
Executive Committee members that will adhere to the
constitutional principles of limited government, free
markets, and individual freedoms.
It is the Central Committee that elects the members of
the Executive Committee. The Central Committee is
made up of one person from each precinct in the
County. Each one of those members is called a
Precinct Executive. The terms "Precinct Executive"
and "Member of the Central Committee" are
synonymous. This Central Committee meets once
every two years where the Executive Committee is
elected "by" the Central Committee.
If we want to change the people that make policy, it is
our responsibility to ensure that our friends have a
majority on the Party's Central Committee, so that:
Newsletter
• Our friends are elected to the Executive
Committee;
• Our friends win the primary;
• Our friends can get on the ballot in the
November General Election;
• Our friends win and change policy.
If we want to change policy it’s our responsibility to
be elected members of our Party's Central
Committee. And that's why we're asking you to run
for Precinct Executive so that:
You become a member of the Central
Committee; you will decide who becomes a
member of your Party's Executive Committee.
Because there can be only one member of the
Central Committee from each of the precincts, it is
imperative that we locate, and encourage
individuals that will adhere to the constitutional
principles of limited government, free markets, and
individual freedoms to join with us.
That is why if each of us would do this in our own
precinct then we will succeed. And so we conclude
with:
Rule # 4
He who holds the office of Precinct Executive is he
who holds the Power of the People...
Therefore it is vital that freedom loving people who
believe in our Charters of Freedom run for the
office of "Precinct Executive"...
Terminology – Precinct Executive
There seems to be some confusion as to correct
terminology of the Precinct Executive. What we
have is a cluster-mess of terminologies throughout
the country that mean the same thing. Instead of
Committeeperson, or committeeman, or
committeewoman, or committee captain, or
precinct chairperson, or precinct chairman, or
precinct chairwoman, or etc., etc., I think you get
the idea. In light of that, we will use the
terminology Precinct Executive. So, when you
hear one of us mention “Precinct Executive” We
mean all of the above!

meeting. Call it perfect timing or just call it Las Vegas
luck, but the old party RINO’s had no idea what had
just hit them. They welcomed us with open arms and
celebration fitting a Trojan horse, thinking they had just
boosted their membership numbers with naïve
unwashed children who would be easy to lead. But we
had other plans. The old guard was clueless to the fact
that we were as mad at them as we were with the
Socialist Liberal Progressives.
To fully understand what happened in Nevada, you
must know the demographics. Southern Nevada is
about as liberal as it gets, the rural counties are solid
conservative patriots and the Reno/Carson City area is
a split between liberals and moderates. The key to
changing the State GOP was Las Vegas, the most
populous part of Clark County and the State. Unknown
to us at the time, we were at ground zero of the
conservative explosion that would sweep across
Nevada and would soon catch on fire across the
Nation.
The time-line of events:
March – April: Nevada Patriots and NAC at separate
meeting started examining How to join and influence
the CCRP (Clark County Republican Party). Grassfire
members encouraged to join the other local groups to
communicate and promote the coalition idea. The
leaders of the separate groups formed a coalition (The
Leadership Coalition) and started working together in
order to be more effective. The Las Vegas Glen Beck
9-12'ers came on board with the idea and all members
were encouraged to join the GOP to achieve the
needed numbers.
June- October - Coalition was successful in electing
members as officers to CCRP. We started filling
commission district seats for the State convention with
coalition members. Note: The commission district reps
are the Nevada equivalent of Precinct Executives for
this purpose. CDR's are members of and have a vote
on the CCRP Executive Board.
November - Coalition successful in changing Nevada
State GOP leadership with grass roots conservatives.
Present: With 15 active coalition groups and growing,
and over 200 Precinct Executives, all from the
conservative grassroots movement. We continue to
work within the system to influence the Republican
Party.

State Directors!
State Directors - welcome aboard! Your first task is
to confirm the two key dates for your state, namely
your Filing Deadline and Primary Date. Our NPA
website has dates listed, but you can also confirm
them by referring to the website for the Federal
Election Commission
http://www.fec.gov/pubrec/fe2010/2010pdates.pdf
Great! Once you have confirmed your key dates,
what is the next step?
If your state filing deadline is within 6 weeks, it is
URGENT – do anything you can, quickly, to meet
fellow conservatives and get them involved.
Identify the most heavily populated counties and
focus on finding County Coordinators for each.
If your state filing deadline is more than 6 weeks,
you still need to get busy getting but you'll have a
bit more time to get your County Coordinators in
place. Check with your Area Director - they might
need your temporary assistance with the State
coordinators of other states now in the URGENT
zone. For example, KY, WV, NM, IN, OH, NC all
has filing deadlines in Jan or Feb.
What if your filing deadline has passed? Don't give
up hope - County party leaders still have empty
seats to fill, so the challenge is to identify precincts
with open seats and put forward conservative
individuals who can then be appointed as Precinct
Executives.
The next step is most crucial of all...oops - out of
space - we'll cover that in the next newsletter!
