Revolution? Really? Some people in America today have started to call for a revolution, and talk openly about how it would be great if it was peaceful, but ok if it was bloody. This is something that has to be addressed. In my view this is one of the most infantile, uninformed, and ignorant ‘movements’ — if you can call it that — in the American political experience today. What do our fathers and mothers and grandparents have to teach us about the adversity they lived through in the 30’s and 40’s, 50’s and 60’s and the 1970’s? They learned to work together, because the nation’s survival depended on it. How sad that some of the sons and daughters of the ‘greatest generation’ want to take their toys home and demand revolution … a revolution the young people of today will have to fight. Is this what you really want? Sponsored by Ryan Plumbing and Heating of Saint Paul

Which side will win in 2014? Conservatives still don’t know what to do to help their candidates get elected. A listener email provokes a podcast about how to get involved, what specifically to do and why its important. People still think social media and clever websites will win elections. Do conservatives know the difference between social media tools and real political action? Or, do people actually think protests, websites, meme’s and hanging pictures around your neck to tweet make a difference? Hint; No! Doing the unglamorous, necessary work of day to day politics, wins the race in the end. Protests, websites and social media are tools. “Boots on the ground” and money win elections. What have you done today to ensure that your guy wins on November 4th 2014? Sponsored by Baklund R&D
