It is imperative we get beyond pinning hopes of national reform on easily bought and paid for national offices and concentrate where not only the enemy is weak but also where much of the tyranny is ladled out-at the local level. <br /><br />Besides we need grass roots support. Winning Freedom politically, economically, and socially at the local level is a sure way of ensuring there's a friendly school of fish for the proverbial guerrilla to swim in.<br /><br />We cannnot garner popular support we lose.J.
