I'm sure that this has been brought up before... but for every time it's brought up it should be expounded on a hundred times!
If the evil GOP soul sucking sacks of crap are ever to be defeated, we have to convert as many people as possible to our cause.
When a person is undecided, show them the local and federal platforms of each party. Don't share your conspiracy theories with them right away.. the repukes have told them to expect this. Instead present what each side says, and state why you feel the Democratic cause is the right one.
Make sure they don't get away with the one-liner cliches, and patriotic ass water they've been fed by fox news. Press them to admit that they "hate gay people" if they support the repukes. Force them to say "I hate poor people, and I think that they are all inferior - if you're poor it's your fault and you deserve to stay that way and suffer." Make them come out and say "I think we should destroy every nation that doesn't agree with us."
Don't give up until they admit that they think a person who works over 40 hours a week doesn't have a right to a livable wage, while their bosses vacation in the swiss alps. Do not relent until they admit that they care nothing for the environment, and the world they will leave their children.
I'm sure I missed some there, but the point is: If anyone will admit to all of those things and feel no shame... they're a sociopath and unredeemable. Or to stupid to choose for themselves, and someone is already pulling the strings. But the reasonable ones who like to think of themselves as good people, will (I believe) swing closer to our side.
Don't be intimidated by the crowd of zombies in the lunchroom. Perhaps some of them are just waiting for an ally, and I'm sure that many just don't understand the issues... YET!
