We need to do more than just talk…

Our movement is gaining momentum each day, as we tell the truth about what is happening to our country, how it is losing what it once stood for. We know in our gut what is happening and we have the high ground. But it is not enough to only say these things to our neighbors, we have to organize in a way that shows that our patriotism is for everyone, that we represent the real soul of America.

When one makes a claim on the soul of a nation, it is not enough to preach. One must also understand organization. It is important to build an organization that includes everyone. A sure instinct on the part of the leadership is necessary. That is why we listen to the millions of people who believe in America, the ones who come from the broadest range of the population. We must be able to sense what the people want, what moves their souls. They must feel the resonance, they must find the right words to reach the soul of the nation. The relationship is reciprocal, and it is not to be found through reason, only through instinct.

Liberals do not understand this at all. Once they laughed at us and said: "What does the Tea Party want? They speak of patriotism and love of country, of gut instinct about what is right for America These are outdated ideas. The understanding is the important thing. Knowledge is all, one must study at the universities."

No! One can’t study it! It is a question of instinct. Either you feel what is right for people, or you do not. Either fate was kind enough to give you this instinct, or not. All the learning in the world cannot replace instinct. If you do not have it, you are lost. The most important thing for our leadership is not to lose that instinct. Liberals believe they can replace instinct with brainwashing!

If we want to lead a people and deserve the honor to do so, we must always be careful to follow our instincts. It is necessary to constantly return to the people. There is only one place to sharpen instinct: the people. A leader who loses his connection to his people soon loses the ability to lead them.
