Below is a link to a U tube video of Jack Petsche at a meeting (I think it was in Shaker Hts. in 2015) talking about how his group disguised the Move to Amend initiative in Brecksville as Democracy Day.  It’s alarming that a Move to Amend leader actually brags on camera about deceiving fellow citizens – and he’s running for Brecksville City Council.

Voters should know that he made these statements, as heard on the video:

“We didn’t use the phrase Move to Amend.   We didn’t spell it out – we used shorthand but you all know what we are here for”. 

“If we’d just left it at we want the city to say we support a Constitutional Amendment to say corporations are not people and money is not equal to speech we would have failed”.

This short video shows Jack Petsche explaining to a group of Cuyahoga County residents how to trick the state into allowing citizens petitions into the voting system in a targeted city, in this case Brecksville, Ohio where I live. The event that Petsche is talking about is the local election on November 2, 2015 where Petsche was trying to find a way to get support to propose in Brecksville an amendment to the US Constitution. What he found was that he couldn’t actually say that so he found a way to create a system in Brecksville to do it by tricking the citizens and the Board of Elections by calling his initiative Democracy Day.  I was involved in that election promoting candidates that I felt would benefit the city and outside  one of the poling places I ran into Petsche who was pushing his Democracy day imitative.   I had a discussion with him that evening and also watched him interface with residence coming in to vote. I found that his spoken words did not match what he was actually trying to do — which was to change the US Constitution.

Petsche like most progressive politicians and activists follow the principles first documented in Saul Alinsky’s “Rule’s for Radicals.” Some of which are: never tell the truth, hide your real agenda, and demonize your opponent at ever chance you get.  In other words use deceit and misdirection to get what you want!

When I was in the Army as a Green Beret office in the mid 1960’s we studied Marxism since it was our primary mission to combat the expansion of the U.S.S.R., this was called the Cold War. I can tell you now that for all practical purposes the Old Democrat party has been taken over over those that believe in  Marxists  principles which they now hid as Socialism. Socialism is a word used with the connotation of a system that leads to a Utopia.  Since humans are not perfect we can not develop  a system that is perfect and all attempts of creating a Utopia have resulted in tens of millions of people dying in that attempt. We do not want to go down road ever!
