Where's the GOP on big tech? Anti-regulation is the default position, but after what happened to Saul Epstein we need to open the discussion. Saul's son Jacob died of a drug overdose last year and because of who Saul is, the story took off in the gossip media. Now, if you do a name search in Google, you'll see right on page one a reference to the drug overdose of his son, something that deeply troubles him since he'd rather that information be kept among the family. He desperately wants to remove Google results but Google does not answer his removal requests, which in the EU would have to be removed by law. Not so in the US. There are many reports of harmful search results - here's one good example advocating to regulate Google. He researched what online reputation management services were capable of and the removal of search results was something they offered, usually bundled along with other services like review management, media monitoring, periodic checks for 3rd party attacks, digital advertising, etc. Since he only wanted the search removal service, he eventually discovered a unique service that used search engine optimization to ethically and legally hide negative search results. These kinds of services are very expensive with ongoing monthly fees. Saul could afford them, but should he have to? Should big tech firms like Google be regulated to ensure our privacy is protected in some way, maybe provide a way to get private information removed from Google? Where does the GOP stand on the regulation of Google? Anybody got a convincing answer?

Coordinating Republican volunteer efforts.

Please register all Republican activists in the GUESTBOOK

Let me know which state you are in, how you would like to contribute, and any new information you may have found which can contribute to the Republican State Parties network.
I would also like to know about other URL Links of interest, so that I may add them.

How to help

Determine how you would like to contribute

  • Where - locally / nationally
    Become a Point of Contact for your area.
    Money / Fundraisers - always useful
    Get out the vote - call constituents in you local area.
    Put up yard signs
    Write the Editors of your local newspaper.

Persuade influential people

  • Find energetic people who are likely to help a good cause.
  • Persuade those who are "sitting on the fence".   Don't waste your time Pig Wrestling.   You can drag a Democrat in the mud for a long time before you realize, "Hey, they like it!"
  • Explain the underlying problems with liberalism.   Get people to use their heads to accomplish the goals that satisfies their hearts.
    • "If you give a man a fish, he eats for one day.   If you teach a man to fish, he will eat for a lifetime."
  • Teach others the same self responsibility that Republicans use to pull themselves out of poverty.

Computer services - Design Web Pages

  • We need a central web page for each state.   Find the contacts who will OK the URL for the Republican National Committee Home Page. Send me their names and phone numbers (and e-mail, if they have it). Use search engines to find local candidates.   Put those pages in the State Page.

Make yourself available

  • Call your local republican headquarters, and let them direct you to a particular campaign.Put your name on the headquarters list.   See where they need help.   Call in frequently to know of upcoming events where you can be of service.

Help train other volunteers

  • I receive email from thousands of volunteers with questions.   Any help screening these messages gives me more time to develop on-line database utilities for your assistance.
