Ramble & Rumble with Rabbi


LEADERS LEAD LOCALLY
Dear Fellow American Patriot:

  Discuss, debate and digest the "Friendly Forum" community conversation about LEADERS LEAD LOCALLY in our online chat room with this link to our Friendly Forum discussion: "May I Introduce a Friend/LEADERS LEAD LOCALLY"

  The rousing rallies woke-up fellow freedom fighting friends. You energetically responded in your community. Thank you, American Patriot, and Congratulations!

     Rabbi Eukel pre-interviewed 75 T.E.A. (Taxed Enough Already) organizers and State coordinators across the United States. The vast majority, 87%, had never done anything like that before. Most, but not all, did not know if the rising river they were riding was a memory moment or a momentous movement. The short-sightedness and first-level fervor, for some, led to not collecting names, addresses, phone numbers or emails. Many of those Patriots became Special Guests on Ramble & Rumble with Rabbi, a live Internet radio broadcast Rabbi Eukel hosts Monday-Friday from 6-7:30AM CST.

     The Patriot events were not only a memory moment. The pictures, YouTube uploads and images posted in blogosphere were more than just historical references to say to our over-burdened-with-taxes-grandchildren, "I remember when we protested massive government spending. See, there I am holding that poster with the Slammin' Slogan: 'Bitterly Clinging to Guns & Religion and I'll Keep the Rest of the Constitution Too!' But then we went home, thinking our patriotic duty was completed."

     Surely, your involvement was meant for more than a memory?

     The answer to the question, "What Now?" has been the launch of LEADERS LEAD LOCALLY.

    GOD-fearing, honest, incorruptible men, women and young people are urgently joining to lead locally. Not to the exclusion of other concerns. After all, the American spirit is able to achieve and applaud many great causes at the same time. The driving transformation to restore and renew our Judeo-Christian vision and values in our own community touches us daily. Massive government spending through taxes and debt financing, we dramatically feel the pinch in local living cost increases - gas, food, housing, clothing, taxes, fees and property assessments. The "trickle down" floods our budgets raging through our house, the school house, the court house, and yes, even the church house.

     Thomas Jefferson said about big government give-aways, "A government big enough to give you everything you want, is strong enough to take everything you have."

     LEADERS LEAD LOCALLY has sounded a clear clarion call. Unnoticed by the national chattering class are the Local Liberal Elitists whose blind ambitions or selfish services slips us toward socialism, or worse.

     The local transformation movement has begun. It is called LEADERS LEAD LOCALLY. It includes you, your family and your neighbors.

     You are not being asked to join a self-important national organization who wants your $50, $100 or $500 in a down economy only to be hit-up again with another crisis market-driven ploy three or six months later.

     You are being urged to join LEADERS LEAD LOCALLY for $10!

     LEADERS LEAD LOCALLY  is a strategic organization locally. Neighborhood joins neighborhood in common causes. Your locally elected officials dare not ignore your active, energized and focused local leadership. 

     Two questions you are asking about now ... (then we have two questions for you)

     1.  What value do I get for my $10 as a Member of LEADERS LEAD LOCALLY?
     2.  What is expected as a Member of LEADERS LEAD LOCALLY?

     Fair and tough questions. Here are the answers.

     First, it is a one-time, life-time Membership of $10. $9 goes directly back to your affiliated and qualified
LEADERS LEAD LOCALLY neighborhood organization. Second, it is your hard-earned and valued money. You voluntarily offer to join with other like-minded American Patriots in your neighborhood.

"Collaborating in Community" you are simply pledging with others:

                                        I am responsible. 
                                        I resolve to partner with other neighbor Patriots
                                            to restore and renew our Judeo-Christian vision & values.
                                        I begin in my house, the school house, and the court house.

     The second question we imagined you asking is, "What's expected?" Members of LEADERS LEAD LOCALLY are expected to encourage and participate in the sponsored events in your neighborhood.

     Two events are strategically planned. One is on-going. the other is suggessted to occur, in conjunction with others, each spring and early fall in your neighborhood.

     They are detailed in the boxes below: Project Precinct Protection and American Revolution Oratory Competition. You are urged to review the two strategic neighborhood to neighborhood events of LEADERS LEAD LOCALLY.

        These two friendly gatherings will also give you and your neighbors the clear opportunity to identify the "Local Leaders" among your neighborhood Members of LEADERS LEAD LOCALLY. Who emerges that can be trusted with the organizational integrity, development and growth for the transformational future? Your neighborhood elected and affirmed Local Leader will manage the funds and be responsible for the success of your qualified and affiliated LEADERS LEAD LOCALLY neighborhood organization.

        Okay ... what is meant by qualified and affiliated LEADERS LEAD LOCALLY neighborhood organization? Hey ... you had two questions, and then I would ask two ...

        It is important, so let's answer it now.

        LEADERS LEAD LOCALLY has a working purpose. We expect agreement from Members and their affiliated neighborhood organization. The Scripture mandate is from Exodus 18:7-27, especially verse 21 "... select capable men (women, too) from all the people - [men] who fear GOD ... and appoint them as officials over thousands, hundreds, fifties and tens." See also Acts 6:3.

        LEADERS LEAD LOCALLY has a mission. We expect affiliated local neighborhood organizations to work toward that mission successfully to qualify and maintain qualification.

        Much is being built NOW! Your early leadership participation will shape important energy and efficiency for the future growth and development of
LEADERS LEAD LOCALLY.

        Now our two questions.

        Will you join NOW, today LEADERS LEAD LOCALLY?

        And with your enthusiastic "YES!" response, we ask ...

        Will you be one of the first 10,000 members over the next 100 days to establish early a strong
LEADERS LEAD LOCALLY?
        
        Each day we mark the passing of the first T.E.A. rallies it becomes a fading memory for some. YouTube videos, photos and follow-on rallies have value but do not fully translate into transformation. 

    Were those events worth more to you than a local badge of honor? Was it not for you, as it is for me, a heart-burn passion to restore and renew the preservation of life, liberty, justice, pursuit of Godly happiness and the reduction in massive government spending (often funded by stealth taxes)!?

        Join
LEADERS LEAD LOCALLY.

                                                            Rabbi DF Eukel

So You Joined LEADERS LEAD LOCALLY ... What's Next?

 

First, thank you, my fellow American Patriot. Every Member and Leader of this association of neighborhoods is necessary as a vital part of this strategic transformation movement.
In fact, for your neighborhood organization to be affiliated as a developing LEADERS LEAD LOCALLY, we encourage you to have at least ten Members.
That means, of course, they, like you, are American Patriots, who complete the Association Application. Look, numbers count. We want to encourage and equip your neighborhood organization to count.
So, get ten together, with each of them strongly encouraged to get one, who will get one, in the next ten days, just like you. That simply means in the first 10 days of your affiliation with LEADERS LEAD LOCALLY, you have encouraged and equipped each other to grow to 100 Members.
When your neighborhood organization of LEADERS LEAD LOCALLY has grown to 100 Members you are both affiliated and qualified to receive back $9 of the $10 one-time, life membership fee for each Member. You do the math. We have. It means your LEADERS LEAD LOCALLY  budget begins with $900 cash on hand! A good start in ten days. Before the Founder can send your well-earned funds, however, there is some paperwork that must be complete:
#   Every Member should have signed the LEADERS LEAD LOCALLY pledge and affirmed it before your Members.

#   Every Member should have a complete Association Application on file locally, and forwarded to the Founder.

#   Every Member should have their one-time, life Membership fee of $10 invested, and received from the Founder their uniquely numbered Membership Card as a receipt.

#   Your neighborhood LEADERS LEAD LOCALLY should adopt the Association's Bylaws, elect officers, determine financial institution to deposit funds and set your regularly scheduled meetings (e.g., 2nd Tuesday monthly at Rabbi & Dee Eukel's home in Mount Vernon, MO 541 Country Lane with gavel at 6:45PM CST, adjournment by 8PM), all of which should be fully communicated to the Founder.

#   Your neighborhood LEADERS LEAD LOCALLY should communicate to the Founder, in writing, who the event managers (and their assistants) are for Project Precinct Protection and American Revolution 1773-style Oratory Scholarship Competition, including contact information (name, address, phone [work/home/cell], email).

#   Obtained from your County Clerk, you should make a clear clean copy of all Precincts, the Precinct Committee men and women (including address, phone contact) for all Political Parties in your County, and forward a copy to the Founder.
#   You shuld forward to the Founder the High School Principal(s), Assistant Principal(s) and Counselor(s), Name of High School(s), Adress, Phone Number in your County from which you should be recruiting Juniors and Seniors for participation in the American Revolution 1773-style Oratory Scholarship Competition.
 

 

Project Precinct Protection
Project Precinct Protection is an ongoing strategic event of LEADERS LEAD LOCALLY.

Project Precinct Protection recognizes local political parties hold the keys to transforming power. Furthermore, Project Precinct Protection understands that the gatekeepers for all political power are known as Precinct Committee men and women.

Your Precinct Committee organized as a Central Committee in your County may be a part of the problem, rather than the solution. Most of us do not know which. Conduct your your street survey. Ask in one day, 100 people, "Who is your Precinct Committee man or woman?" You will most likely get 96 responses of "Who?" or "What?" Simply, because we do not know who, what and why of our neighborhood Precinct Committee, the power to influence is unchecked. These gatekeepers may be allowing overtly or subtly an undermining of true and traditional American values.
 
Why is Project Precinct Protection strategically important? Two reasons. First, party precincts already exist. Let me simply illustrate. With today's costs of new construction rising, it is clearly less costly and more efficient to remodel or add-on, than acquire the land, clear it and design and build a new long-lasting family home. We do not need a new party or a new party structure. Frankly, such 3rd party efforts are counter-productive and may hint more at egos than working strategically within the mainstream.

The second reason Project Precinct Protection is strategically important requires careful attention. Are you fully engaged?

The Political Party of your choice and their Precinct structure can be fully transformed by the Primary Election of August 2010, with filing in February 2010. [Note that we are being specific for Missouri here, but those respective dates in other States can be simply inserted.]

Simply, we recruit 50 American Patriots like you, Members of LEADERS LEAD LOCALLY, who will commit to be Precinct Committee men or women in the County of your neighborhood. They will file in February 2010 and be elected in August 2010.

Result? Your like-minded American Patriots become the majority voting block of the local Political Party. Your Precinct Committee men and women elect the officers for the County Central Committee, the State Legislative District and the State Senatorial District. The chair and vice chair of the State Senatorial Districts are automatically at the table for the State Political Party's Executive Committee. They remain at the table in 2012 during the next Presidential election.

So, Project Precinct Protection encourages neighbors to talk with neighbors to find out the who, what and why of the precinct committee structure.

Additional strategies and tactics for Project Precinct Protection are made available for Members and the Leaders of LEADERS LEAD LOCALLY.



American Oratory Competition

The early fall and spring event for LEADERS LEAD LOCALLY is American Revolution Oratory Competition.

This exciting strategic event in your neighborhood attracts young people  -  juniors and seniors in high school.

Dressed in home-made 1773-period costumes, young people will be encouraged to passionately proclaim in two-minute oratory (around 250 words) their vision and values on preserving life, liberty, justice and the pursuit of Godly happiness.

Local leaders, organizations and individuals will donate funds for the cash scholarship awards ($45 1st, $30 2nd, $15 3rd, and $10 4th) and serve as judges. Young activists will be evaluated in five weighted categories  -  preparation, persuasion, presentation, period authenticity and personableness.

The Scholarship Competition in your neighborhood will also be the gathering for friendly identification of Local Leaders. Who emerges that can be entrusted with the organizational integrity, development and growth for the future? Your elected Local Leader will secure the funds and be responsible for the success of your qualified and affiliated
LEADERS LEAD LOCALLY neighborhood organization.

Many of us enjoy water cooler discussions on national or international issues. It is what everyone else is talking about. Those common conversations give us a sense of belonging.

However, do you have this observation, as I do? Most of the chattering class express the same "talking points" they just heard on talk radio, the talking heads of television or read on the front page of a newspaper. Many of us are simply commenting on commentary with little respect for the facts, the whole facts and nothing but the facts - plus some color for attention-getting interest.

Don't get me wrong.

Common community conversations I care about. And in our republic form of government ( it is not a democracy) freedom of speech is a critical First Amendment right, protected (up to this point in our 233 year history) for citizens of the United States of America. Everyone regardless or race, creed, gender or preference is entitled to their own opinion.

We are, however, as truth-speakers, NOT entitled to our own set of facts.

I am here to advocate passionately for Leaders Lead Locally first and foremost. Frankly, what happens in my house affects what happens in the house of worship. What happens in our houses of worship sweeps into the school house, the county court house and flows upstream to the state house, the Peoples House and finally the White House.

So, those preachers and congregational leaders who do not have an understanding of politics as "Who Gets What, When, Where, Why and How" are, to put it bluntly, clueless that the house of worship is The Venue for Vision and Values.

GOD's Loving Commands shapes our raging rivers for righteousness.

Every family needs the soaking that refreshes their left, right and center banks of influence for how now their family should live.

Leaders Lead Locally!

I have created an acrostic for L.E.A.D.E.R. that allows you and I to hang six important principles or "talking points" about Leaders Lead Locally. Due to time constraints, I will simply list them without further "talk." I trust we can come back to this water cooler conversation again.

L - Legacy Leadership
E - Evaluate Visions & Values
A - Apply Listen-Learn-Lead model
D - Develop Message & Media Contacts
E - Embrace Humor & Winsome Style
R - Relationship Rich, rant poor


Should you have comments, you are warmly welcomed to comment - for or agin' ... Shalom.
