-Caveat Lector- THE HOFFMAN WIRE Oct. 5, 1999 Michael A. Hoffman II, Editor http://www.hoffman-info.com 1. Vote Fraud in America 3. Sun Tzu and Pat Buchanan ====================== 1. Vote Fraud in America The Agents of Paralysis are at it again as we approach the presidential election season, urging us to get in there and back ²our² candidate for Great White Hope. But if we take the bait, where will we be in January of 2001, when leaders such as myself call on their fellow Americans to pitch-in on the long term struggle for a future for our people? Having been burned-out, demoralized and perhaps even nearly bankrupted on the gossamer wings of another futile presidential election campaign, theyıll tell me, ³Itıs no use² and ³Itıs too late² and theyıll crawl into their bunkers --which is right where the System wants them. We are offering a new audio-cassette tape of an interview with the foremost authority on ³Vote Fraud in America,² Jim Condit, Jr. Jim will provide you with the missing key to the current election farce. Heıll tell you why your vote in the national elections doesnıt count, how the 1996 Republican presidential nomination was stolen from Buchanan and how fraud could work again in 2000, unless the candidates themselves call attention to it. Condit, who won a court case in the 1980s against the Ohio Board of Elections, and who is a former aide to Buchanan, told this reporter (see Revisionist History newsletter, no. 11), that Buchanan has thus far shown no interest in exposing vote fraud. But if Buchanan doesnıt expose vote fraud, he wonıt win election as federal sewer inspector, much less the presidency. So what game is afoot here? Listen to the ³Vote Fraud in America² tape. Mr. Condit will show you which elections are faked, which ones are likely to be honest and the activist steps you can take in your own county to help secure an honest ballot box. By means of this tape, we want to alert our people now, before Great White Hope Fever sweeps them into yet another frenzy, resulting in a no-win disappointment. Letıs put the big shots on notice-- we wonıt be fooled again by their dialectic of opposition. We know they set-up and control their own opposition. ======================= 3. Sun Tzu and Pat Buchanan As an ex-farmer let me offer you an agricultural parable. The tropical plant, like for example, the tomato, is fast-growing (a matter of weeks) and ostentatious in its flowering coloration. Its fruit is appealing to the eye. It is a gaudy bauble in the garden of summer. But its roots are shallow and at the first hard frost it is blackened, withered and dead. The burdock, on the other hand, is a northern plant. It is a nuisance in its tenacious, prickly adhesion. It is homely. It lacks style and gloss. It grows slowly (a matter of years). But winter frost cannot kill it and it is nearly impossible to uproot by hand, so deep are its taproots. If one understands the Hegelian dialectic, and behind it, the "knowledge of the equilibrium" of the Zohar, one knows that, thus far, the Pat Buchanans are like that tomato. They have shallow roots, dependent on the sunshine of the System's own news shows, publicity machine, polls, elections and atrocity propaganda and provocations. They are here for a season and then they vanish for four years, like reruns on the late show. We feed the tomato instead of the burdock and then ask, when winter winds blow the torn and stained campaign fliers down the empty streets of our collective broken dreams, "Why do we never win?" Cheap thrills are just that. The System doesn't fear an exchange of talking heads on MSNBC. If they did, they wouldn't broadcast them. They fear constituencies, business networks, organic communities, local 3rd party candidates for city council, school board, state legislature, sheriff-- backed by voting blocs and paper ballots counted in front of the citizens--they fear anything with roots independent of their Videodrome and their rigged national ballot box and polls. Where was Mr. Buchanan in 1996, when he had four years to build and register a third party which would make vote fraud in America the galvanizing issue? He was supporting Bob Dole, the most incompetent presidential candidate of any major party in modern history. After the inevitable Dole defeat, Buchanan returned to his plush job within the System's media octopus and squandered three precious years that could have been spent building a new party. Now on the strength of rhetoric alone, we are being summoned for another election crusade by a man who refuses to challenge the very election System that cheats him of victory. At the risk of alienating everyone--and such are the risks which true vision entails--I say Pat Buchanan is that shallow-rooted, gaudy tropical fruit--a creation of the very media-System he purports to want to destroy. If his campaign were entirely symbolic, costing us nothing and running no risks of plummeting morale should he go down to defeat, I might say, support Buchanan for symbolic effect. But it is worse than useless to pretend that 1999 is 1979 or even 1989. Half our movement is so burned out they are praying for financial collapse or the end of civilization itself, via the Y2K bogeyman. How were our people reduced to such a state, and will a campaign built on kleig lights and electronic vote fraud rally them, or only seal their cynicism in 2001? I wish I could apologize for telling you that thus far the Buchanan campaign is a summer soldier, a tropical plant, priming us for another plunge into suicidal paralysis when Bush or Gore or Bradley is inaugurated in January of 2001. The fight is no longer over who controls La Cesspool Grande in the District of Corruption. It is over who controls Main Street in our towns. We can still win locally and thereby inspire others. More than anything, our movement needs the inspiration that comes of victories, however small. I have never seen our people approach the brink of suicidal paralysis to such an extent as they have in the past two years. Most of the "leaders" I know, with a few honorable exceptions, had given up, to await Y2K collapse, Wall Street collapse, famine, Comet Hale-Bopp apocalypse, concentration camps for patriots, Chinese army invasion; the rapture, or the apparition of the Blessed Virgin in a miraculous mud puddle. You name the goofball, millennial, fear-mongering prognostication and I'll find you a soothsayer among militia leaders, preachers, priests and the right wing, who trumpet it from the short wave towers. At present, the system is stirring these folk from their near-death state with jolts of media juice and shafts of electricity emanating from ritual denunciations of Buchanan for having written, correctly, that Germany had no designs on America during WWII. These are hot button issues, along with NAFTA and the culture war, and they can reanimate even a seeming right wing cadaver. But these mere "controversies" have no substantive organizational legs of their own. Only a people without historical consciousness could believe they do. The record of persecuted movements--and I'm not talking about the contretemps of the Self-Chosen, I am referring to the historical victims of the Professional Victim Class--teaches a different political and sociological lesson. I am a descendant of Palatinate Germans--Lutherans, Mennonites and Catholics--who lived through fire, sword and scourge in Europe, and Indian attacks and frontier travail in America. But they survived and prevailed because they had a community that stuck together and adhered, thanks to a network of hard-working, frugal farmers and shrewd businessmen, who traded among themselves for the advantage of their group, rendering themselves almost independent of the vagaries of elections and political controversies and excitements. I tell you that such organization is not the result of victory but the makings of it. One does not put the cart before the horse. No Great White Hope can build such a community network for us. We must do it locally with neighbors of like mind. From numerous such bases woven into a nationwide network there comes the foundation for a national leader and national victory. Without them, we are chasing shadows with a butterfly net. The chief objection will be that we "have no time for those things now." That is the apocalyptic mentality speaking, born out of the plastic and tinsel of the 15 minute attention span, the portable phone, the instant meal and the constant propagation of the imminent end of the world. Only subjugated people think like that, with so short-term and ruptured a time-span; weak people for whom real work is anathema. They much prefer tapping a keyboard, clicking a remote control and shelling out a few palliative bucks. Such people have shallow roots and flit from candidate to candidate, scheme to scheme, pipedream to pipedream, no matter how much they are are warned against such futility. Soon they are spent and exhausted and when the farmers and the precinct captains, the builders and the family men come by to ask them to help build a community from the ground up, they shout, "It's too late!" and slam the door of their fortress-bunkers in their neighbors' collective face. The Kabbalah expounds on this demoralization process but I cannot readily distill it into a few words. Let me instead borrow the more pithy formula of Sun Tzu, to explain what is at work here: "...attaining one hundred victories in one hundred battles is not the pinnacle of excellence. Subjugating the enemy's army without fighting is the true pinnacle of excellence." Sun Tzu, The Art of War The American people have yet to discover their true leaders and therefore, they have yet to fight. Those phantasmagorical battles which they imagine they fight lead inevitably to burnout, and the resulting bunker of the recluse, and from there to the psycho-geography of the heirs of General Sun Tzu, who thus far have subdued America without a real fight.
