Who are the money people that would fund a new party or a new effort to organize a grass roots movement to fix the republican party?
I will start with these potentials
Ross Perot
Philip F. Anschutz
Richard Mellon Scaife
Ross Perot is a closet democrat. He only ran to get Clinton elected and stick it to Bush Sr. and it worked beautifully
Do NOT split the party! Every major election we’ve lost over the last 40 years had a split Pub ticket (with the notable exception of this one).
However, I agree with you that we need our own Soros.
And we need to get out and VOTE in the freaking primaries! The numbers there are dismal!
Rush Limbaugh? ;-)
I think we need to rebuild this thing from the ground-up.
Rush, Hannity, maybe Mark Levin ...
Ross Perot is a big government Republican...plus he’s in poor health these days.
Richard Mellon Scaife is now friends with the Clintons.
If you couldn't get his real birth certificate, why would a court give you access to his e-mails, text messages, etc.? Just think of what will happen to the judiciary the next 8 years. ACLU lawyers will overrun the bench again.
Herman Cain
Rush might have a couple of million but he can’t fund a HUGE effort. We need millions.
Michael Dell?
Hollywood cash?
the super rich people don’t really care about traditional values and they don’t care about “Joe the plumber”
Truit Cathey
It’d be cheaper and easier to chnge the leadership.
What about the guy who owns the Dallas Mavericks? I think he voted for McCain, that is what I heard anyway...
The American people won’t be saved by billionares. They will be saved by themselves or not at all. We will need to dig deeper and put every dollar we can spare to work for the cause.
We need motivated volunteers more than we need cash IMHO.
Gates and Buffet voted for Obama and you’d think if anybody would be for capitalism, they would. I’d say it is over.
You can’t fix the party if the people want a free lunch purchased by the government. The chain of events will lead to a dictatorship just like the chart shows -after democracy comes a dictatorship. We no longer have a republic. I can’t see a comeback no matter what is ahead.
Let’s face it, the republic has been gone a long time. Even when the republicans are in they vote liberal policies. For years we have tried to get abortion stopped, drilling started, etc...all for naught. America has gone the way of the rest of the world and there will be a NWO.
If it wasn’t for looking for Jesus to come, I’d be without hope.
you need a stance where people can agree on abortion and the immigtation issue has to come up, look at the mexicans and the fraud here. also campaign finance and voter id an registration is important early on. there also has to be coordinated planned and suprised protests that garner media attention and the party has to demand the remaining people to tow the party line and stand up to pelosi and reid
