Choosing which State to Liberate
Choosing which State to Liberate
By George Cunningham
In Tim Condon's article Our Most Important Decision he identifies the Final Four States by utilizing the all-important criteria of a low state voting population. In his article, Tim correctly identifies the single most important factor to our success as the State voting population. With this in mind it is difficult to dispute the final four suggested, those being Vermont, Alaska, Wyoming & North Dakota. Moreover, the suggested final two Wyoming & North Dakota seem to be our best chance of success.
But with consideration to Wyoming, several important points need to be reconsidered.
- Wyoming is considerably smaller than North Dakota by 77,000 voters or nearly 1/3.
- In Wyoming 20,000 activist voters would constitute about 9.3% of the 213,000 voting population.
- In North Dakota 20,000 activist voters would make up only 6.8% of the 290,000 voter population.
- Wyoming already has a larger conservative voting population than North Dakota.
- Wyoming may have a much better job outlook than North Dakota, if you take into consideration the commutable job market.
- From Wyoming
- Evanston in southwest Wyoming is local to...
- Salt Lake City, UT
- Ogden, UT
- West Valley City, UT
- Sand City, UT
- Orem & provo, UT (a stretch)
- Cheyenne in southeast Wyoming is local to...
- Fort Collins, CO
- Greeley, CO
- Longmont, CO
- Boulder, CO (a stretch)
- Denver & suburbs (a stretch, but achievable for freedom)
- Beulah, in east Wyoming is local to...
- Rapid City, SD (a stretch)
- Sheridan, in north Wyoming is local to...
- Billings, MO (a stretch)
- From North Dakota
- No cities of appreciable size are commutable (unless you own a plane or tele-commute)
Concerning the other issues raised about Wyoming.
- Land owned by the federal government
- This may make things difficult and costly if "parting company" becomes necessary, but should not hinder our initial bid for freedom
- Concerning geography
- If the USA/UN decide to hinder our trade, Canada may assist in that hinderance. The border may not make much difference concerning restricted trade, commerce (i.e. smuggling) might be as easy in Wyoming as in North Dakota. In this "New World Order" we may find North Dakota just as land-locked as Wyoming.
- The climate is about 20 degrees more hospitable in Wyoming and the landscape considerably more beautiful than North Dakota
- Wyoming is more centrally located for travelers
- "Flying under the radar" may be easier from North Dakota, but after wrestling control of the State legislature we will certainly appear on everyone's radar.
In the final analysis, it seems that Wyoming may be the best choice, if we are to prevail against the forces of darkness.
In the movie "The Patriot" as the French come to our aid Mel Gibson states "Viva le France" and the French soldier aptly replies...
- --"Viva le Liberty"--
