1 person“As a result, all three branches of the corporate-owned government, their media propagandists, and the millions of Americans who tune in have abandoned their traditional roles. Government no longer represents the People. The press no longer holds government accountable, and the willful ignorance of far too many of our fellow citizens deprives all of us of representation. The entire system is so completely corrupted and dysfunctional, that we are at a point where we need to scrap the whole thing and begin anew. Enter Occupy Wall Street.”

“”ia "union" designehttp://www.patrioThe Patriots Precinct Division – is all about retraining citizens in American civics. The place where the people can exercise direct political power is in the political precinct. Contrary to popular opinion, the political parties are not a top-down system, but a bottom-up system, beginning with your local precinct. Over the last year or so, thousands of people have learned about the precinct and are now in power in the precincts, with more needed. Although precinct power is local, it must be nationally coordinated in order to have a national impact. Unorganized, the precinct strategy is at best a twenty-five year strategy to alter national direction from the precinct level. But strategically designed and nationally organized, that time frame for change can be trimmed to a two to four year process. This division is designed to accomplish national change by organizing education and opportunity communication between precinct delegates across the country.
- Fill all vacant precinct seats in both political parties
- Educate delegates on all of the powers available from the precinct
- Strategize locally, across each state and across the country
- Problem solve through information sharing
- Control the political process and parties from the bottom-up
- Affect local, state and national change by working with others in common

“State governments remain the primary source of both revenue and spending decisions for programs ranging from K-12 education to state colleges to the police, courts and prisons. And crucial programs for working families, like workers compensation for injured employees, a $72.9 billion annual program12, and unemployment insurance, a $34.1 billion annual program13, are almost completely administered by state governments with the rules for eligibility determined by state, not federal politicians.”
