The 2024 campaign season is underway, with the vote coming up in a matter of months. I have six brief questions for the Republican incumbents and challengers who want my vote. Being an elected official obviously carries tremendous responsibility. Some Republican candidates have a good track record, but others don’t. How about you? Simply put, your voters need to know if you stand with the “inside-the-Beltway” types and the “Con Inc.” rhinestone conservatives, or if you’re made of the right stuff.

Please don’t send back a boilerplate form letter; that means only a staffer read it. Since voting for you will likely involve an hour or two (depending on the line) as well as a round trip to the polls, my candidate can spare a couple of minutes to read this personally.

There’s so much I could discuss: the economy, the ongoing wars abroad, campaign finance reform, international trade, conservatives who couldn’t even conserve the women’s restroom, and so forth — but I’ll keep it brief. I’ll make it easy, too. In other words, I’m not really expecting a reply; the important part is that you consider all this. It’s in your best interests, too — as I’ll explain soon enough, your future career depends on it!

Results count. Talk is cheap. Too many politicians expect voters to keep electing them simply because the other party is worse. That’s a cop-out, and beneath your calling. Moreover, half the electorate doesn’t even bother to vote. I wonder why? Earn the support of your constituents through effective actions. If you ignore your base, they’ll go away. For one example, the South consistently backed the Democrats for generations — until their support was taken for granted. Then they lost a huge voting bloc.

Question 1. What is your position on law and order?

As a Republican, this one ought to be pretty easy, and you might well have something to brag about here. Hopefully you are also aware that law and order doesn’t mean hassling honest citizens, shaking them down, and tightening control over them — everything from traffic cams and picayune infractions to domestic spying and politically-motivated lawfare — while the bad guys run the streets, right? Now let’s cover some specifics.

What were you doing in 2020, during the months that our cities were in flames? What have you done about truculent Leftist foundations inciting urban rioters? What’s your record with paramilitary street gangs, some of which span states and even cross international boundaries? Have you done anything about prosecutors with agendas, who abuse their authority and put their political opponents through Kafkaesque proceedings while letting rioters, looters, and felons walk? We the people want to know.

Question 2. How did you respond to the stolen election of 2020?

I’ll assume you didn’t just fall off a turnip truck. You know very well how a corrupt, mentally-incompetent usurper got installed as the Commander-in-Cheat, supposedly with the most votes in American history despite having less charisma than a grub-infested tree stump. I won’t go into detail about observers illegally being shut out of proceedings, polls closing at 3 AM in key swing states, boxes of ballots for the girl-sniffer mysteriously arriving in the middle of the night to overturn the results, the media circling the wagons, and all the rest of it. You already should be well aware that something very hinky was afoot — but what did you do about it back then?

During the two months following the blatantly rigged contest, I mainly noticed Republican politicians licking the windows in the Capitol rotunda. Was your party even trying to win? Your competition sure does; they play for keeps! That’s why they nearly always get their way eventually. More to the point, were you one of the do-nothings content to be a beautiful loser while the Democrats ran away with the Presidency, or are you an exception? Did you at least speak out? If so, I’d be quite happy to know.

Question 3. What have you done to ensure future electoral integrity?

Most Republican politicians obviously dropped the ball, standing idly by while their President got thrown under the bus. (Maybe some of you had a visitation from that tricky character with those embarrassing pictures!) It seems that some assumed the Steal of 2020 was just going to be a one-time thing. Were you one of the ones who imagined you’d just let that one slide, and thereafter the Democrats would go back down to their usual level of cheating?

More importantly, what measures have you taken to prevent future mail-in ballot games, get dead people and illegal aliens off the rolls, make sure that voters are who they say they are, and so forth? I’ve heard about some measures in Florida, but nary a peep elsewhere. A little effort in this regard might work miracles for your party’s results — just saying!

Question 4. How have you curtailed illegal immigration?

Now here’s a brief one. What did you do to support the construction of a barricade along America’s southern border? How else did you protect the public from illegal immigration? What have you done to prevent international intruders from working under the table, driving down wages, and meanwhile receiving taxpayer-funded freebies? If you’ve taken some decisive measures, great, let’s hear about it! On the other hand, if you’ve done nothing effective, then what does this say about your position on law and order?

Question 5. How have you curtailed Third World immigration in general?

I don’t want to be crowded out of my own country by illegal aliens, but being crowded out by incompatible economic migrants arriving legally is hardly better. The Founders established the United States for “ourselves and our posterity,” as they wrote in the preamble to the Constitution. Moreover, they wisely understood that even with the best intentions all around, not all populations get along together. Many cultures mean many conflicts. (You can figure that out merely by cracking open a history book!) The Founders didn’t create their new country just to give it away to Third World hard-luck cases. Then the 1965 Immigration Act hijacked America. Ted Kennedy lied shamelessly on the Senate floor to get it passed, promising that it wouldn’t change our country’s ethnic composition. The public was never consulted.

Now, this should get your attention, if anything does: What will you do if your party becomes irrelevant through changing demographics? Time’s running out — not just for America, but for your career, too! Third World migrants consistently bloc-vote for Democrats, as you should know. Altering our demographics in the Evil Party’s favor is like permanently stuffing the ballot box, to say nothing of what else this is doing to society. Note well: Efforts by the Stupid Party to court them as “natural conservatives” have gone nowhere. Why are you guys repeating the same mistakes while expecting different results?

Now it’s crunch time, and the implications should be obvious! Unless something changes, America will become a permanent one-party banana republic, until there is no America left. That’s right — you’d better do something about it, if you expect to keep your nice job. Your own family and their descendants will be living here, too, and further inaction will affect their future, just like what many of your constituents are enduring now. Inherited wealth and gated communities only go so far; ask Rhodesia and South Africa about that! Your party has had nearly six decades to stop this obvious endgame strategy, but with no real results besides tough talk and empty promises. I will give you a break personally, however, if you’ve made some real efforts to stop population replacement migration.

Question 6. Have you been standing up for the founding population of the United States?

Although I could digress into a long history lesson about it, you should already be aware that white people founded this country and are essential to its existence. This is your party’s major base of support, too. Of course, the Democrats very explicitly appeal to their constituencies and openly discuss serving their interests. They’re hardly shy about it, to say the least. Maybe you don’t care for identity politics, but your competition certainly does! If you simply want everyone to be treated the same, then what have you done to end preferential treatment for the Left’s favored groups?

More to the point, if minority voters can be courted, then why not the very population that established the United States? The usual sort of “dog whistling” isn’t enough, not while The Squad openly slags us off in Congress. Are our own interests and concerns not at least as valid as everyone else’s? Today’s Leftists believe that white people shouldn’t have a voice or any representation as a people — and if you do too, then you’re one of them. If you won’t stand up for us, then what’s the difference? So what’s your track record on appealing to your core constituency, and more importantly, getting real results for us? I’m not asking the impossible here; just the same sort of representation that Democrats give to their own constituencies. Even some kind words and recognition would do wonders.

Hopefully you’re not afraid that you might offend people who never will vote for you in the first place, or that some wormy journalist who hates everything you hold dear will call you a name! Some support would certainly be helpful given all the vilification we’ve been getting lately from the usual suspects — everyone from two-bit demagogues all the way up to certain top government officials. We’re up to our necks in woke nonsense, largely because our politicians stopped standing up for us during the mid-1960s. It’s high time for this to change.

A few Republicans have indeed made some steps in the right direction lately. If you’ve been helpful in this regard, I’d love to hear more. On the other hand, politicians who are too chicken to stand up for their base, taking their support for granted because their voters have nowhere else to turn, are unfit for public office.
