Nikki Tsongas Uses Teens As Pawns In Political Race

I am the first to admit, I am a registered democrat. This is different than actually being a democrat. You see, I do it for a few reasons, but one is because I live in Massachusetts and there are so many “blind democrats” in this state I want an opportunity to talk with some of them. So once in a while a contested (democrat) race happens and since I am registered as a democrat I get the campaign calls. Well tonight, at 7:09 PM, I got once such call from 978-458-6415, no caller ID name, just the number.

It was a polite young man looking for my support to vote for Nikki Tsongas in our upcoming September 4th congressional election. I have already fielded several of these calls so far, but this one disturbed me. You see, it appears that even Nikki’s supporters may not support her. After a brief chat with this teen is was obvious he was just being used as a pawn in Nikki’s political game of “win at any cost”.  He was being used to make phone calls for a person that he doesn’t even really know and isn’t sure he supports.

My question is, did Nikki, or anyone else, even tell these people why they should support her? Does she care? How did she get these teens to volunteer?  Since they aren’t doing this out of pure support, what was their motive?  I can only imagine that she is either paying these teens or they believe they have to do this because someone (their parents) told them to.

This is the making of a “blind liberal.”  They are liberal democrats because that’s what their parents were, and their parents before that.  They don’t even ask themselves, “is this what I support?”  They just blindly follow in the footsteps that have been laid out before them.  Well, it appears Nikki is nothing new in the democrat arena, she is old school and happy to push forward on the backs of the blind army who are just “following orders.”  It’s sad.

Well, judge for yourself, below is the transcript.  Even though I wrote this post later, I logged on right after the call to type in the transcript so I am 99% sure it is word for word.

Me: Hello.
Teen: Hi, I am calling to ask if Nikki Tsongas can count on your support on September 4th?
Me: I don’t know. What is Nikki Tsongas going to do for me?
Teen: I don’t really know actually.
Me: Well do you support Nikki Tsongas?
Teen: Well, I’m not old enough to vote.
Me: That’s okay, just because you can’t vote doesn’t mean you can’t support someone.
Teen: That’s true.
Me: So do you support her?
Teen: I don’t know.
Me: Well, you need to ask what is she going to do for you? She may be representing you when you can vote and would you vote for her then?  Do you want her in office when you are older?
Teen: I don’t know actually.
Me: Well, if you are calling to ask me to support Nikki Tsongas don’t you think that you should support her first?
Teen: Yeah, I guess so.

At this point I went into a discussion about the his career aspirations and where he sees himself in the future because that will likely drive who he’ll want to represent him, etc. There were a lot of “I don’t knows” and it was obvious he couldn’t get off the phone fast enough.  So he got in a quick, “Thank you for your time, Sir”, and I replied, “Thank you, good luck.”

Likely he was not ready to think about these things yet, after all it really is an awakening when you free your mind and “see” the truth.  It’s best he be a little older but at least I hope I sent him on his way.  I guess it’s like that scene in The Matrix when Neo realizes he is in a computer program and “pops”.

“You take the blue pill and the story ends. You wake in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill and you stay in Wonderland and I show you how deep the rabbit-hole goes.  Remember — all I am offering is the truth, nothing more.”

Curious the red pill offers the truth and the blue pill the fantasy…coincidence?
