The media usually prints whatever the candidates say. "Career Politicians" are not going to tell you about their "weaknesses"
or; what TRULY motivates them to vote as they do
(Special Interests control almost ALL of the Bills and ALL the Votes)
or; how it happened that so many of them came in of "modest means" and
have become WEALTHY while in office.
So, we usually only get "Glowing Reports" about all the Elected Officials.
What are Special Interests? A body of persons, corporation,
or an industry that seeks or receives benefits or privileged
treatment, especially through legislation.
Translation: THEY get the benefits and YOU get to pay for it!
Most of us suspect that all is not as well as it seems here.
But; It is VERY difficult to find the FACTS.
So, we usually vote along Party Lines - because we still believe that "Our Party will only choose those that will help us and they would
NEVER support someone that did not follow their Political Platform."
So, they keep getting re-elected and not much Good ever seems to happen.
Politicians DEPEND on Voter Ignorance - to keep them in Power.

As the delegates left the building, a Mrs. Powell, of Philadelphia,
asked Benjamin Franklin, “Well, Doctor, what have we got?” With no hesitation, Franklin replied, “A Republic, if you can keep it!”
Food for Thought:
Do you ever wonder WHAT our Georgia Legislature really does? Do they REALLY work for You & Me?
Where do all the bills & laws (3,000+) come from?
How many HELPED You? Anybody you know?
Can you think of ANY that did not originate from "PARTY" or SPECIAL INTERESTS? Why have we not had an Independent on the GA
Ballot since 1943? WHO did this help?
Why does our Georgia Legislature - the General Assembly - allow the Federal Government to walk all over us? Our State Sovereignty is GONE!
HOWdid the Federal Government get all this power?
Much of it is PROHIBITED by the 10th Amendment to the Feferal Constitution:
“The powers not delegated to the
United States by the Constitution,
nor prohibited by it to the States,
are reserved to the States
respectively, or to the people.”
Is our State Government powerless to stop the Federal Government's abuses?
Can we regain our FREEDOM? Is YOUR life Better with bureaucrats controlling it?
Do your TAXES buy you more than you had BEFORE they went up,.and up, and up?
Can YOU benefit from this Incapacity?
Our GOAL: To restore the Liberty, Exceptionalism, Wealth, Confidence and Respect that our
Citizens, Country and Government once enjoyed,
by
restoring The Constitution to its rightful place
as The Supreme Law of our Land
and
making ALL elected officialsresponsible to US,
their PAYING employers; We The People.
The MEANS: To provide the Citizens of Georgia with easily understood and FACTUAL information
regarding Local & State issues, the legislative processes,
WHO their elected officials are (and the un-elected too) and
HOW they Voted,
so they can truly understand how the issues will
affect their Lives, Fortunes and Futures,
and confidently WANT to participate in our government
by Voting as they TRULY believe,
rather than being mislead by
self-serving "Career Politicians",
Political Parties,
the Media and
other "Special Interests".
We will do this with "common-sense" as our guide and adherence to the Georgia State Constitution
as our singular determinant.
We are non-partisan, NOT affiliated with any Political Party.
We are losing our Liberty and our Constitution fast. Both the Political Parties are CORRUPTED. Only YOU can save Our Country - withINFORMED Votes.
We will study the ISSUES:
Where did the bill come from? Where is it likely to go? Who is sponsoring it? Why is he sponsoring it? Who will profit from it? And, who will lose?
No more DOUBTS about Voting! Know Who, What, When, Where & Why - Always! Vote with CONFIDENCE
Please
55% of us, We The People, Do VOTE - but, 95% of us admitKnowing Littleabout the Candidates or the Issues.
But, We are ALL interested in Local Issues - the things that affect our Everyday Lives.
What is a Career Politician's WORSTFEAR?Voters that know"the FACTS"
GUARANTEE
They feel OBLIGATED to vote anyway! What are the results of this?
45% of us Don't Vote - usually because we don't believe in EITHER Candidate or: we feel our vote Doesn't Count.
It appears that almost all the Candidates try to hide the truth about how they vote and "Why?"
We would ALL Vote if: 1. We felt sure we knew what is TRULY Going On (Who & What).
2. We felt sure OUR Vote could make a difference in OUR lives.
Very few of us have the time to research and try to unravel The FACTS about Politics & Politicians.
The Votes DO count! What is lacking is INFORMED Votes.
Informed Voters bring out the HONEST Candidates. They can work FOR you, safely, when YOU know the FACTS.
Informed Voters make their Elected Officials ACCOUNTABLE! Ifthey don't work FOR The People, they get voted OUT!
Wake Up Georgia is non-partisan. We will bring you The FACTS about every Candidate, every Elected Official, every Issue - Starting with LOCAL gov't & going up.
And, you will find it EASY.
YOU can decide YOUR Future (not some far away bureaucrat)
Why?
Even though almost ALL Voters will admit they do NOT know enough about the Candidates:
We will start with your LOCAL Government
because virtually everything here has a direct, and usually immediate, effect on your life.
The FACTS, as you know, are hard to find. So:
WE will "Do the Research". First, we see what they profess to believe. Then we verify: look up voting records, actions in the past, who are they "aligned" with and all the rest.
We intend to review every single Candidate, every single Elected Official, every single Person Appointed by these Officials and every singleISSUE.
Then, we will try to "de-politicize" it:
What does the Democratic Party say? What does the Republican Party say? What does the Media say? What's the "SPIN"? What do others say? What is in it for each of them? What are they not telling us?
How will it affect YOU?
How will it affect your neighborhood? How will it affect your neighbors? How will it affect The COUNTRY? What is the real objective? How will it affect your TAXES? Will it mean MORE taxes down the line? What will the long-range effects be? .. and more.
We will do the same for County, State and Federal Governments, and their AGENCIES.
Did you ever hear anybody say: "MY representative is OK - it's all the OTHERS that are bad!"
They have usually been mislead!
If we do hear something bad about a candidate or an elected official, it is usually from some other area - rarely from his "Home" District.
(usually from a candidate that is trying to divert attention from himself)
Albert Einstein once said: "The definition on INSANITY is doing the SAME thing over and over again - and expecting DIFFERENT results!"
We believe: YOUwillWANTto Vote
for Candidates that TRULY represent YOUR interests (instead of Party & Special Interests)
on ISSUES that affect YOU - where YOUR Voice is truly heard (not the voice of Special Interests) IF; You are INFORMED - of The FACTS
We are losing our Liberty and our Constitution fast. Both the Political Parties are CORRUPTED. Only YOU can save Our Country - withINFORMED Votes.
The Founding Fathers created the FIRST government in ALL History that was by, and for, a FREE People. Its LIBERTY has produced more Happiness and Wealth than ever before seen on Earth.
It has lost its way. It is now in danger. Only YOU can save it.
Why should I Join?What's in it for ME? YOUR life will actually improve
if we have better government. You CAN havea voice in YOUR OWN future
You will have CONFIDENCE in your vote.
For the 1st time, you'll KNOW who the candidates REALLY are!
You won't be fooled or confused anymore.
You will understand "WHY & HOW things happen"and
KNOW that there IS something YOU can do about it, ;Vote - for TRUTH.
Once the bureaucrats realize that they WORK for YOU,
they will be more accountable (to "The People")
and WASTE LESS of YOUR hard-earned Tax Dollars
Politicians will LISTEN & RESPOND - to YOUR needs,
not "enrich & empower" themselves
by catering to Special Interests
Once this happens, you will get: Lower TAXES,
Government that worksFOR you
(instead of against you), and more Disposable INCOME. Better Government?
;It can ONLY happen if The Voters are informed
;enough to RECOGNIZE those candidates that are HONEST enough
to truly PROTECT their Lives, Liberty, Property & Rights.
