In the military, we use "Op-Plans" (Operations Plans), various constructs that achieve only a limited purpose, but when they are all linked together, the overall mission gets accomplished.
I've long thought that the best way to run a political party would be with Op-Plans. With an Op-Plan, a specific, limited objective could be accomplished. An example might be as limited as taking back one seat in the Senate, or it might be expanded as wide as taking back the entire Senate (taking it back from the leftists).
I need some help here, because I am about to propose that all previous thought on the organization of (supposedly) conservative political parties be abandoned. That would put all the current right-of-center parties (GOP, Libertarian, Constitution, the new Conservative Party, etc) out of business.
In their place, I propose a Coalition Party. The Coalition Party would involve the ENTIRE Right (and as much of the Center as could be convinced to join), and it would have a limited political objective, and when it had accomplished that objective, it would disband. Sort of like the Coalition put together to defeat Saddam Hussein in Kuwait in the Gulf War.
The overall objective of the Coalition Party would be "The Un-Do".
Yes, the party would exist for a "negative" reason. It would gain and hold power specifically for the time necessary to roll back, by proper Constitutional means, the bloated and intrusive Federal Government. Ronald Reagan started out to have this as his goal, but along the way, he became involved in the big government instead of rolling it back. Most thought that Arnold Schwarzenegger started out towards that objective in California, but he has obviously gone over to the Dark Side of big government as well.
Another advantage of having a Coalition Party with this objective is that the current Democratic Party will re-constitute itself to fight it, and fight the Un-Do. When they do, they will use, shall we say, "excessive force", and in doing so, un-intentionally promote the Coalition Party and the Un-Do. Their zeal to defeat any idea of an Un-Do might even get hot enough that the nation might decide to shed it's burdensome government with a cataclysmic event, and in doing so, hasten the accomplishment of the Un-Do. The Coalition Party would have to plan to use that contingency if it develops. As of now, such planning would still be protected by the First Amendment, but who knows how long the First will last? It is being assaulted almost weekly with new proposals to muzzle dissent of the machinery of big Government and it's current leader, President Obama.
Even the Convention required to establish the Coalition Party would be a useful exercise, since a Constitutional Convention will probably be required after the Un-Do, and the Coalition Party members will have practiced the niceties of such assemblages, and will have an advantage over the Left when one is held.
Notice here that I don't advocate eliminating the Left from the political scene. I want to simply being the nation back to a level of governance that gives only the most basic help necessary to the individual, who will then succeed or fail depending on his/her own strengths and skills, and not be artificially supported by Uncle Sugar, as close to 50% of our population is now. We dare not allow that percentage to actually get to over 50%, because then that majority will permanently enslave the remaining individuals as a permanent source of their support. Such enslavement is currently advocated by the Obama Administration, and if given sufficient time, will be accomplished even without a corresponding political majority.
So, time is running short to form a Coalition Party and get it registered for the 2012 election and beyond.
The first job in forming such a party is to get the right-of-center parties to bury their dogmatic hatchets in favor of an Un-Do strategy. I think that peace between the parties of the Right can be achieved, if only those parties will look to the security of the overall idea of Un-Do. All parties right-of-center are endangered species now anyway, and unlike the little creatures of the planet, do NOT have the protection of government to insure their survival. If Obama has his way, we WILL become, first de-facto, then de-jure, a one-party nation (aka a dictatorship).
The Un-Do will have to be done. It is a matter of National AND individual survival. Let's do the Un-Do now, while sufficient INDIVIDUALS still exist to lead the effort. Most of us who can lead this effort will be gone in a few years, and as we die off, we are NOT being replaced in sufficient numbers to prevent a complete change-over to a gimme-society. IN no more than five years, the gimme-society will have sufficient of it's tentacles around the Constitution to actually smother it's flame of enlightened individualism, and at that point, the only option left will be a violent Un-Do. As a military man, I would not care to speculate on the success of THAT Un-Do, but suffice it to say, we have an opportunity to make our Un-Do work legally and properly, but we have to act quickly.
Let's talk up the idea of a Coalition Party, with the ONLY purpose of that party being the Un-Do. Let's look up some of our friends in the righto-sphere and ask them the important question: are YOU willing to put ALL your political dogma aside to achieve the objective of an Un-Do, and ONLY that objective?
I will write more about my idea of a Coalition Party and the Great Un-Do in these pages. Please don't try to convince me that force of arms will be required to accomplish the Un-Do, because I have come to the realization that while such military action might be a fine way to die, it is unlikely to achieve it's objective of an Un-Do. We have to do this through the Ballot Box, not the Cartridge Box.
