Your audience learns the very high value and ease of a 12 month commitment to citizen legislative advocacy. This program is especially good for "Legislative Days" in your state capitol or in Washington, DC.

Current political humor and patriotism are used in all Election Analysis/Inside Washington programs which make them engaging. Your audience will leave your meeting feeling they have the real "inside scoop" on current events in Washington, DC. This gives your people a reason to work harder on their Hill visits during your Washington, DC programs and get involved with election candidates. Lawmakers remember who got them elected and remember best who supported them early.

Most eligible members of a PAC (a) do not understand the role a PAC has in electing lawmakers who understand your agenda and/or (b) think PACs are "vote buying" with "dirty" money. PACs support candidates who share the donors philosophy of government and/or issues. This program uses logic and current examples that explain that participating in a PAC is as fundamental to democracy as letter writing and voting. Political humor and patriotism are used to engage the emotions and minds of the audience.

A warm and wonderful story of the opportunity all American's enjoy and one of the really memorable parts of my program.

All of my programs contain humor which entertains your audience to keep their interest level high and means they're paying attention and absorbing the message. The same is true of stories that I tell, they are designed to be entertaining and interesting while underscoring an essential part of the message. The Lava Lamp Story demonstrates the greatness of America and the opportunity it provides in a realistic and moving way that has touched the hearts of audiences big and small. Watch the video and share this wonderful story as so many others have. Meeting planners and attendees alike often comment this is one of the many memorable moments of the program.

Leadership:
A warm and wonderful story of the opportunity all American's enjoy and the GREATNESS of America's political and economic system.

Political Humor
All the humor used is current to what's in the news TODAY. I'm an equal opportunity abuser, I tell jokes about everyone who deserves it without regard to party affiliation. In order to never offend anyone, my humor is always based on bad decisions. For example, a Bill Clinton joke would have to do with last minute pardons, Monica, etc., because those are all decisions he freely made. He did not choose to be a white male. Jokes are NEVER made about what people do NOT choose such as their gender, skin color, sexuality, intellectual ability, physical appearance, etc.

The Beauty and Richness of America
No matter what the political stripe, experience or depth of involvement in the public policy arena, nothing, absolutely nothing, makes the blood flow faster and stimulates the audience to grassroots action faster than patriotic stories about the greatness of America. This was true before September 11, 2001 and is even more true today.

I can do a program that is pure "button busting" patriotism. Most groups choose a topic, i.e., PAC Development, Grassroots Advocacy, Election Analysis, etc., that features the beauty and richness of America, the system that made and keeps us great and the ability of the average person to participate in that system to make it even better. All my programs conclude with a patriotic story that will put a bounce in the step of every audience member and pride in their heart.

Patriotism
On July 4, 2013, America was 237 years old. At 237 years old, America is the world's oldest continuous democracy. America has more political and economic freedom and success than any country on the face of the earth. Also, America is the earth's crown jewel of freedom, opportunity, independence, liberty and compassion.

Pat in the "Borat" Movie
See Pat's only client who wasn't a better speaker after working with Pat. Pat was duped into thinking he was coaching a journalist from Kazakhstan about "American humor" and was actually part the "BORAT" movie.
