Step one:
Use a daily drip drip drip method on TV, Radio, & in every publication. Gin up anger in the "low information" voter.
Step two:
Low information people love bus tours as much as they love attention paid to them. Make them feel important. Invite them to participate in the Bus-a-paloozza.
Sounds expensive? Get people in the shadows like the AMA, Pharma, Hospital Corporations and assorted Think Tank organizations to kick in millions to support the "activities" of the e-mailers, forum crashers, organizers.
Step three:
Play up the "Get yourself on TV" angle. Angry people love to be on tv, showing their outrage, even if the outrage comes from a script.
Step four:
Remind people that only THEY can stop this "angry black man in office" and his "dangerous" attempt to provide health care to all Americans. To reinforce this anger, people like Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Glenn Beck, Michelle Malkin, Laura Ingraham, and hundreds more just like them, are stepping up their anger-inducing invectives.
Step five:
Release the zombies!
Step six:
Send in the photographers & press. Documentation of their events is the most important part. They MUST be seen as "just plain folks" doing their civic duty. The more vocal, the more in-your-face they are, the better (makes great sound bytes & even better photos).
Step seven:
Cover media event reporting that reinforces one opinion. There are many ways to do this, so it's as easy as finding ticks on a hairless dog.
Mob intimidates candidates & ordinary attendees...they're just exercising their constitutional right to be heard
Candidate calls off meeting..they're "chicken"
Candidates ask for participation by supporters aligned with their political philosophy..they're portrayed as "asking for trouble" from the "mob-folks" who are there to disrupt the meeting.
Candidates use a members-only approach and limit meeting to actual constituents (not the bus-people/mobbers)....they're being elitist, and much door pounding ensues , along with chants of "Let Us IN" ...makes for a great photo-op.
Step eight
Trot out every poll possible that shows any change in public perception (which is EVERY poll, every time..that';s why pollsters stay in business). Every poll that shows division, can only help gin up even more angry white people, ready to do "battle" with rehearsed outrage.
Any media person who claims that this is all just a grassroots "uprising" of concern, is a bald-faced LIAR. They do not report it accurately because
(a) It takes longer than the time it takes to show a 20 second clip, and then chuckle (b) The incitement is coming from THEIR advertisers/ benefactors/ corporate buddies/ former (current?) colleagues (c) It's just too much fun to see ignorant people being manipulated into showing their fears & racism..up close & personal. (d) It gives them all something to talk about, write about & enjoy, during the usually dull month of August.
