Propaganda: The Left's Winning Weapon

The American Left is taking control of the political landscape, and they are not doing it with ideas or action; they are doing it with propaganda.  They have a rich heritage in its use, they learned from the masters, Marx, Lenin, and Stalin.

Conservatives better learn to use the weapon more powerful than the sword or lose the war.

A black conservative has a message which should be heard:

WND: Democrats are lying about their past and overwhelmingly winning minority voters, and a prominent black conservative says they will keep winning until conservatives learn how to win the propaganda war and champion the story of slave-turned-abolitionist Frederick Douglass as an outreach to black voters.

K. Carl Smith is a rising star among black conservatives. He recently addressed the 2013 Conservative Political Action Conference and is author of “Frederick Douglass Republicans: The Movement to Re-Ignite America’s Passion for Liberty.” He told WND conservatives have the right message, but their approach to voters is deeply lacking.

“The Republican Party has done a horrendous job of talking about a message that unites people. They don’t talk about liberty enough, and that’s the all-encompassing message that you want to put out there. That’s not happening. It’s not being done in a very effective way,” Smith said.

“We’re so badly losing the propaganda battle. Whenever we try to express our conservative values, we have already been discredited, so our message falls on deaf ears. I contend that the No. 1 problem facing the GOP and the conservative movement is not the problem of messaging per se, but this whole idea about winning a propaganda battle so your message will connect with people and resonate with people. So when you talk about conservatism, they don’t see you as a sellout. They don’t see you as a racist or that you don’t care about the poor. We’ve got to start winning that propaganda battle first, and that’s what we’re not doing a very good job of,” Smith said.

He said Democrats are very effective in the propaganda battles, largely because their message to black voters and other solidly Democratic voting blocs is built on a glaring lie.
