Control the elections at all costs. no exceptions.
As a failsafe:
Only allow 2 parties so they are easier to control,
Fight against term limits so your blackmailed and bought off politicians never get replaced.
Control the DNC and have the DNC gatekeep the D candidates never allowing a patriot in.
Control the RNC and have the RNC gatekeep the R candidates never allowing a patriot in.
Do no allow third parties, as it will be harder to control 3 parties than it is to control 2 parties.
