GoFundPence 2.0

 

Make America Moral Again
(Rockies caps are available super-cheap about now..)

Epstein is the trigger. Mike Pence is the man to pull it. Time is of the essence here. Opportunities like this must be seized quickly or they go away just as quickly. The good news is I did some work on this back in the ‘24 Campaign, but there just wasn’t enough time to pull things together. Now I’m prepared to pass on the concepts and deliverables I developed before, spiff them up a bit for the new situation, and let all the brave new reformers use them to change the tide for the better.

Yes, I’m talking about giving all you sudden moral stickler MAGA dropouts a head start on the ‘28 Campaign, which, believe me, the pollsters are already making serious money on. Still don’t get it? I’m giving you the basics for Mike Pence for President 2.0.

I had already collected materials and some copy notes for a Kindle book called, simply enough, Pence for President. Here’s the cover I designed at the time.


The cover pic was idealized somewhat, to suggest more intellect
 and mystique than Mike had been able to display as Vice President. 
No one was allowed to look more iconic than Donald Trump.

I even jumped the gun a little and included an ad for the book in my heavily trafficked podcast before the manuscript was actually finished. 

Guess I overestimated his and my popularity at the time

We were under the gun. The pollsters were doing everything possible to make it hard not just on him, but on everyone. All the media figured the only way to take Trump down was to send enough bodies into the campaign against his nomination to keep him from getting enough delegates. You’ll remember how that worked out.


Still, just because I never finalized the text, the Pence partisans shouldn’t feel there are no materials to work with, both for a fundraising campaign book and for a variety of ads in support of his bold and beautiful platform as a candidate.

For example, there’s an AI app buried somewhere in my iPad that breaks into my image files on a regular basis and makes its own little movies from my photos and artwork, enhanced with digital video effects I can’t afford personally. These can be invaluable to the production of  posters and the winning imagery of breakthrough ads. You can use any or all of these for free:

No, not all of them are flattering. The app doesn’t know anything; it just grabs 
and sequences and pushes pics around. You get to choose what works for you. 

I’ve also got pics the AI app didn’t realize might be evocative in terms of issues and ideas, because AI doesn’t know anything about issues and ideas. And the app also doesn’t have any imagination, so it can’t dream up an unlikely visual icon on its own without being told.

Something I’me giving away for free here. The book and the ads can do different things. The written biography can leverage the gentle, unassuming side of the Pence personality, as exemplified by the gentle, unassuming personality of the State of Indiana. 

Here he is at the University of Indiana, modestly standing to one side. Trump never does that.

The whole book can be that way. His marriage to a high school sweetheart, his high school and college participation in the stamp club, the forensic society, and his years as hall monitor and soccer team manager. 

You know, the good guy most young women never even 
glance at, only to wish they’d married them 10 years too late.

But the Pence we have come to admire never had to run that gauntlet. Marrying his first love and his obsessive fidelity to her may have made him the butt of jokes in jaded DC, but not in the flyover country so slickly appropriated by the Trump billions. Deep down, Middle America knows and respects the sanctity of the true Christian “missionary position,” and they don’t laugh about it when you get them away from those MAGA cheerleader types.

Why Pence was quietly admired for refusing 
even to lunch with a woman not his wife.

We’ve always known how the Missus felt about the Trump relationship.


But the desire to serve proved what a man he was in other ways too.

His Wiki Bio doesn’t mention any service in the USMC, But they don’t 
like the military anyway, and who would put that on a car if it weren’t true?


You could see the Indiana morality kicking in well before Jan 6.

The tough stuff that makes him the hero ascendant of the ‘28 campaign, however, is the stuff of advertising built around his iconic role as a solitary Hero of Morality in the tragic Trump 1.0 administration.

This guy!

The man who leapt into action in Jan 6.

We all remember that fateful day when Pence stood up to the Destroyer of Democracy and certified the election of Joe Biden.

He knew what to do. His mom read him the fairy tale about 
Horace at the Bridge when he was just a kid.


Was he hiding under a desk when Capitol Hill cops were being slaughtered? No, says this pic.


Too modest for a Victory Parade at Joe’s Inauguration, he attended incognito.

Over the span of months later, Mike Pence played a role in the Jan 6 hearings that couldn’t have been more obvious if he had been physically present. Old style American Democracy had returned and he was one of the new age founders of it.

See Below the Fold for more about the heritage of this historic levying of public justice.

And that’s the bold outline of Pence ‘28 platform. A return to Indiana-style morality and sexual mores, simple and lurid as necessary to make the pursed lips of wives and other women relent into a tolerant smile. Strict enough about the religion thing to satisfy the historical elders who, when you think about it, even had universities older than the country that were very religious in their own way.

Our last helping hand is in the form of a bit of merchandise (see graphic up top), cheap to produce we think, that will give the Pence logo “Make America Moral Again” fly off the shelves and into the hearts of average Americans who discovered that winning for five months straight was winning too much and had to be slowed down a little or quite a lot actually. To be on the safe side.

You’ll have to take it from here, you roguish Epstein rebels. Can’t wait to see how moral you get on the campaign trail.

I have my own guesses about how it will go… 


BELOW THE FOLD…

Some of the raw materials that can be used to flesh out the book and the advertising copy. These relate to Mike Pence’s own bio, and the history of morality and religious preferences in the great state of Indiana.

Yes, it’s AI, but everything is now, isn’t it? Which is why it doesn’t even matter what’s pushing the button on the Autopen. You’ll have to do some word changes and stuff like that, but the basic ideas you need are all here, embedded in the Hoosier history books.

My World and Welcome to It

     This post was last updated at 5:30 A.M., Monday, August 11. Latest entries are “A New Breed of Chosen People?” and “An Old Forgotten Story Back in the News.” The Instapunk Times is hot off the presses... Undernet Black was updated August 11. This will be a pinned post in perpetuity, but it will be updated continuously, just like all of our lives. The title — “My World and Welcome to It” — is stolen happily from James Thurber, who is known as a humorist, unabashedly untrained cartoonist, and dog lover. He was also subject to melancholy, a drinker of note, and something of an outsider (in his own damaged eyes at least) as an Ohioan, born and educated, who became a fixture in the glamorous Algonquin Roundtable of Manhattan writers and playwrights. I can relate to all of that but the fame and the lifelong journey to blindness. I believe he was likely the best writer of the gang that gathered in the Algonquin Hotel in the 1930s, and I made my own pilgrimage there once in ...

An Old Forgotten Story Back in the News

Image
  Here’s the “official” story as it has stood for a quarter century. This will be an unusual post. It contains my longest ever direct quote of another source, which happens to be the longest ever post I have seen at the Gateway Pundit website. Ordinarily this is a kind of topic I would have handled fairly briefly at Facebook, but the relevant text by Gateway and by me is too substantial for that. I tried doing it that way before choosing this site instead. Here’s the graphic I prepared for the FB post: After I’d  prepared the graphic, things started to get complicated. There was just too much relevant content for a Facebook post. I have a personal connection to the Oklahoma City bombing story you probably have to be 50 to share. I remember exactly where I was when it broke into the regular cable programming one April morning in 1995 with a Special Announcement of an unfolding catastrophe in the state where my sister lived. My TV, large screen for the time and equipped with sur...

The Best Movie of the 21st Century?

Image
The IMDb List A month or so ago I heard an episode of the Cluck and Buck Radio Show (i.e., Clay Travis/Buck Sexton) discussing the lists of best 21st Century movies that have been popping up now that we’ve got a quarter of the new century under our belts. They weren’t happy with the names they were hearing. After a lot of what passes for manly banter between them they settled on The Dark Knight Rises as their pick for Number 1. It’s a better choice, I agree, than most of the titles on the list above, but the whole process of selection here seems sad. Even pitiful. I’ve seen exactly eight of the 21 movies shown here, and the only one I’d consider a candidate for the top spot is Lord of the Rings . I liked Lost in Translation’ s   inclusion   on the list as well. That’s about it. Most of it seems like pretentious junk, overhyped sequels, and predictably dark excursions into some director’s disappointments with the universe. Not what I watch movies for.  I very much do...

Where We Stand 6 Months into Trump 2.0

Image
  “Yes, you. The rabbit at the back of the room. Stand up.” There will be a lot of talk by the experts now that the first half year is in the bank. The Honeymoon is over, so to speak. The bride has returned from her lavish world tour and is now spilling the secrets to her girlfriends. Was it all perfect? No. She won’t be discussing the great sex in detail because they were sleeping together before the wedding anyway, and now she can’t help confiding to her intimates some of the real life annoyances that always crop up when you’re sharing close quarters in foreign surroundings. Her confidence that the things about him she thought she could change or improve has been shaken. In little ways, he is still living his own life, no matter how solicitous he seems. He is always busy but he is not always with her. He stares alone out the window in the middle of the night. Sometimes he seems to be looking past her, even when they’re touching. She had particularly wanted to see a,particular mus...

I’m changing my Spirit Animal

Image
  In recent years, I’ve been making it a practice to snap a photo of myself on my birthday as I ascend into the heady realm of old age. I turned 72 on July 10, which is supposed to be the new 40 or something if you’re up to date on the newest dietary supplements and anti-prostapocalypse Kegel exercises that keep you youngalike for decades longer than your dad. 70 is not the new 40 though. By coincidence, if there is such a thing, a young lady I’ve regarded as a daughter since I met her sent me a photo she found just last week. I was 44 then. The Boomer Bible was 7 years behind me. She wasn’t trying to be unkind, just reminding me how long we’ve known each other. The years take their toll now, just as they always have. I don’t deny playing with the photos after I take them. My motives aren’t even pure. I’m trying to stage-manage the future, at least in part, because when they show us portraits of a long dead writer they tend to want us to see what they looked like toward the end, wh...

A quick flash of Klieg lights from the subconscious

  Saw a short but evocative post from Michael Smith on Facebook yesterday that struck an immediate chord with me:   It struck chords with a lot of people in fact. We’d already been through this once with all the guiltiest talking heads in the media interviewing all the accomplices in the political class about how the fact of Joe Biden’s serious dementia could have been covered up so thoroughly. Nauseating to watch. Now we have a similar but not quite identical phenomenon of the complicit talking heads in the huge set of hoaxes designed to destroy the Trump presidency inviting some of of the prime perpetrators on to deny the truth of Tulsi Gabbard’s charges with a straight face. Nodding all around as more lies are piled on top of the mountain of old lies. Does no one realize they are, if possible, making matters worse for themselves when the investigators bring their charges? Reading Smith’s post and the comments appended to it made me think of a movie I had seen as a kid. It w...

REPOST: Take a Look at Who’s Behind the Destruction of America

Image
More than 300,000 of you have visited here. How much have you read? I don’t know. I do know there are more than 650 posts at IPR, averaging better than 1,500 words a post when you factor in the long and longer ones. There is also contained herein an outreach to voluminous other materials in other of my sites over 20+ years time. That’s why I do an occasional Repost to highlight older material that is currently as relevant as it’s ever been in the present context. There’s a precursor to this post, also a hearkening back, that may make a good reminder of my qualifications to comment on Barack Obama. It’s called “ Only the Willfully Blind Never Saw It… ” and worth rereading in its own right. This one is full of content that can be browsed, dipped into, returned to, and used as a ready reference source as new related events transpire. I’m not insisting anyone readmit, just offering it because we have now reached the point at which a former President of the United States is almost certainly...

My Ghost Prevention Plan

Image
  The Valley of the Jerseyikes When you’ve decided to your own satisfaction that life doesn’t end with physical death, what have you got to worry about? That probably depends on where you come down on the age-old questions about ghosts. Do they exist? Are they a possible fate of troubled souls after they’ve shuffled off this mortal coil or been yanked out of it too suddenly? What if you expire peacefully and find yourself waking up in the attic of your own house, somehow tethered to it with no watch you can trust to keep track of time? I know I’ve stopped wearing a watch at all, like almost all of you out there. Are we taking some kind of risk that we’ll miss the departure signal for the trip to the other side? One side effect of getting old and not liking most of what’s on teevee is that you wind up watching too many paranormal shows, which have the virtue of no politics, no gratuitous sex scenes, and extended stretches of restful watching with almost nothing happening on screen. ...
