If you're immediate reaction is . . .
"Why, my congressman will never sign something like that!"
. . . all I can do is jump for joy! It means we're getting somewhere!
I'll explain exactly how this is intended to work in the next installments of Putting Boots (Birkenstocks) on the Ground. But before we go there, I have to make one critical point. This really has to sink in and be fully understood in order to appreciate the power of the candidate contract and its potential as a game-changer in our current dysfunctional political environment. Here it is . . .
While the candidate contract is a legally-binding agreement, properly implementing it is NOT A LEGAL STRATEGY.
IT'S A POLITICAL STRATEGY!
This is not about courts and juries and lawyers.
It is about forcing elected representatives to represent us.
It is using a legal instrument to our POLITICAL ADVANTAGE!
Please repeat this as often as needed for it to sink in . . .
Candidate
contracts are legal instruments to force democratically-elected
representatives to represent their constituents. They are political
levers!
They are POLITICAL SLEDGEHAMMERS!
All will become clear in the next installments.
