How to Create Fun at Grassroots for Your Party, Candidate, or P.A.C. (U.S.A.)
Could your greatest contribution to politics at the grassroots be to make volunteering kind of fun for everybody. Your party candidates may appreciate good, clean fun -- and the local Precinct Chairmen need help promoting some very good candidates for [your-party]. You and they may want their volunteers to feel engaged, happy and committed. Not bored to death. Why you? Why not you? Your candidates and your values need support in contested primary and general election races possibly down to your local justice of the peace precinct and many other races. Okay, you're probably not a clown. Be cautious! Cause some good, clean, happy laughter. This also could motivate volunteers for general elections in your locale, state House and in U.S. House of representatives districts, and statewide or federal elections, as well. So how can you have fun and help your cause... your PAC or candidate. You can party hardy! Read on...

Have fun in your party, ( grassroots PAC ), for your candidate, your local Democrat, Republican, or independent party. Make your party or campaign events fun: with music, humor and snacks. Serve Bar-Be-Que for fundraiser, or free/or ice cream, hot dogs and/or watermelon. Get around and enthusiastically meet and greet precinct chairs, state representatives, U.S. representatives, your Justice of the Peace, constable, etc. at such party events. Express your joy and enthusiastic support for such agreeable people -- with whom your interests coincide (or intersect in a real way). Send out a serious mailing piece to [your] supporters and their voters in their respective precincts. Do public relations and build friendships for your, PAC, informal group or formal political party, if you can afford to do it... raise funds if not and still do it.

Be proactive in your, precinct, or state house (or U.S.) of representatives district by sending out a communication. Expect that it would be several thousand (possibly 3,000 or so for one state district to likely voters for your party, or several hundred for a precinct). Consider using post cards because people look at both sides to see what it is (and for no folding or stuffing). You may need to use postage stamps (that is more personable than a postage meter) and you will need labels put on them. Hand address local correspondence, if you have enough volunteers and/or time to hand write the addresses. Consider helping with publicity to help them be elected as true [your-party] Precinct Chairs. You need good leadership at the grassroots level (if not yourself). Set a deadline to accomplish that kind of thing... Hopefully, have a FUN stuffing party one evening (if you can pin down a good location). Be available to help your party, if possible if you can and it means enough to you then "Please RESPOND A.S.A.P. to ____ your party. Praise your friends, for they are amazing! Your work, your speaking with friends and family, your passing along the messages sent to you (forwarded to your e-mail friends), shows the respect you hold within your cause and your community and for each other. Party and PAC devotion translates to success: for [your] district, and for the candidates who will be appreciative and will help break gridlock... Cooperate: it helps build your party or PAC, etc. Work to be able to pull the elections off without a run-off. Runs offs are tiring and expensive. If so, the credit is YOURS, i.e. such as in spite of three primary opponents.
