...and now for the Democrats (see previous letter below)

      Not much to say here, except that since I've written every Republican Senator to stand up to Mitch McConnell, I figured that I better write to the Democrats to stand behind these Senators should they choose to do so.  This way, McConnell will be outnumbered and defeated in however he wants to exercise his power.  If the Senators would cross the aisles and united with the other party on an important issue that needs to be address, then McConnell will have to give in.  The power of a united government.

     Again, feel free to copy this letter and send it to any or all Democratic Senators.  To write to the Republicans, see next post.

                                     “I know it’s in the Constitution, but I don’t care!  Make me!”

                                                                -Senator Mitch McConnell

Dear Senator (Democrat):

      My name to Alastair Browne.  I reside in Durham, North Carolina, and I am reaching out to each and every member of the United States Senate.  Please read this entire letter.

      I would like to bring up the subject of Mitch McConnell, Senate Majority Leader of of the Republican Party.

     As you very well know, Senator Mitch McConnell has vowed to obstruct the policies of our incoming President, Joe Biden.   He has vowed to wreck the economy, or at least slow it down, and sabotage Biden’s presidency.  I could get into greater detail about this, but this is the main point of this letter - we have an obstructionist in the Senate, who holds a lot of power, and he has to be dealt with before he does any more damage.

     All Senator McConnell cares about is power, and he will do anything to get and keep it.  He does not care about the Constitution, as noted in above quote, he does not care about the American people, all he cares about is himself.

     Of course, you and your fellow Democrats know all this, and that is why I am writing to you.  There is still a way to stop Senator McConnell, even now.

     I have recently written to every Republican explaining all this, and I encouraged them not to vote along with Mitch McConnell and the rest of the Republican Senate should they be in disagreement.  I asked them to stand up to Mitch McConnell, to say “NO,” to tell him that they do not represent him but the American people, if necessary.  I encouraged them to vote their conscience and beliefs, and should Mitch McConnell try and blackmail them, or threaten them in any way, shape of form, to vote their beliefs anyway, and let the chips fall where they may.

     This is where you come in! 

      In the event that there are Republican Senators who want to vote against Mitch McConnell on any issue, you have to go across the isle, reach out to them, and stand with them, regardless of any party affiliation.  They will need your support.  There may not be many of them who do, but those that do, along with the Democrats, with be able to override McConnell on whatever he demands.

     You must not let these particular Senators stand alone.  A Senator like McConnell with the power he has will crush them.  You have the power to stop this, and McConnell.  If enough Senators unite to stand up to McConnell, he will lose, and perhaps be humbled enough not to exert so much power.

     This does not mean that they, other Republican Senators, should desert their party.  This does not mean they are being unfaithful, or treacherous, to their fellow Senators.  It just means that they are standing up for what is right!  

     Do not let your fellow Senators be intimated.  They must vote against Mitch McConnell on certain issues even if it costs them, because that very act of blackmail and intimidation can later be used against Mitch McConnell, exposing him to the public for what he really is.

     Should McConnell blackmail, pressure, or intimidate any individual Senator, Democrat or Republican, to vote a certain way at the risk of a certain cost, simply say to Senator Mitch McConnell, “bring it on!”

     This is the way Mitch McConnell can be dealt with and put in his place, even now, having  both Democrat and Republican Senators untie against him.

     Not all Republicans, I know, will unite.  Some are hard-core followers of Mitch McConnell, but I feel that there are a few Senators who are with him because they fear him.  You have to reach out to these very few Senators.

     All Senators and Congressmen and Congresswomen are Americans first, party members second, and in order for America is to progress as a nation, we have to return to this very belief.  We also have to return to the written Constitution, not submit to one man demands.  Remember that the election is over.  Now you have to get down to work.

    Thank you for your attention, and I look forward to hearing from you soon.

   

Sincerely,

  Alastair S Browne

A Letter to all the Republican Senators, 2021

 I would like to share with you a letter I have written and sent to all the Republican Senators in Congress.  This is about Mitch McConnell, whom, I'm sure you know, has pledge to obstruct President Joe Biden's policies, especially his economic policies, for the purpose of destroying Biden's administration.  McConnell tried this with Obama from 2009-2017, which didn't work.  Why?  McConnell is a power monger who wants to control the country from behind, and will stop at nothing to get and obtain power.  

I tried to help get him out of office this past election (2020) but failed.  The answer is to appeal to the Republican Senators themselves, to see if there are any decent ones left willing to stand up to Biden for the sake of our country.  Read the letter.  It is assumed that you know the issues here, so I won't get into too much detail describing Mitch McConnell and his schemes.

Feel free to copy this letter, or better, put it in your own words, including issues I may have missed and send it to all the Republican Senators.  It may grab their attention.  If just one Senator gets this message and wants to do something about it, it will be worth it.

The Honorable (Republican Senator’s name)

United States Senate

Washington, DC.  20510

“I know it’s in the Constitution, but I don’t care!  Make me!”

                                                     -Senator Mitch McConnell

Dear Senator (surname):

      My name to Alastair Browne.  I reside in Durham, North Carolina, and I am reaching out to each and every member of the Republican Senate.  Please read this entire letter.

      I would like to bring up the subject of Mitch McConnell, Senate Majority of of the Republican Party that you represent.

     Senator Mitch McConnell has, unfortunately, vowed to obstruct the policies of our incoming President, Joe Biden.   He has vowed to wreck the economy, or at least slow it down, and sabotage Biden’s presidency.  I know that is a harsh way of putting it, and you may not agree with this, but please bear with me.  

     Because Senator McConnell has a dislike for President Joe Biden and the Democratic Party, he will do everything he can to destroy Biden’s presidency by killing any bill proposed by the Democratic Party, especially bills that, if passed, would benefit the American people as a whole.  If this means destroying health care plans, plans to rebuild our infrastructure, destroying the environment, or even destroying the economy, he will do it.  I know you are a Republican, but don’t underestimate Mitch McConnell.  He will stop at nothing to get what he wants.

      This must not be allowed to happen.  President Biden is YOUR president, and he needs your support, no matter which party he, or you, are affiliated.  You are all Americans first, party matters shouldn’t even be in the equation, and you are all working for the good of the country and the American people, not your party or yourselves.  You must also reach across the isle and talk to Democrats because, like you, they want to make America a better place, and they do have a lot to say in this matter.  You cannot ignore them.

     What I sincerely request of you all is that whenever a bill comes up in Congress that would be beneficial to the American people as a whole.  In a situation like this, you must vote your conscience, your beliefs, and what is good for the United States, even if other senators of your party, including Mitch McConnell, tell you otherwise.  You must be an individual and think for yourself, not your party.

     You represent your state, its residents, and ALL of the American people, NOT Mitch McConnell.  Stand up to Mitch McConnell if he tells you to vote on an issue in which you disagree, and vote against it.  Show courage, regardless of what will happen, and fight him, if necessary.  You may have a lot more people on your side than you realize.  Show Integrity, and do what is morally right.  We have too little of that now, and we need more people of courage and integrity to make this country better.

     Senator McConnell simply wants power.  That is all he cares about, and he will disregard the U.S. Constitution to get it.  Note the quote at the top of the letter regarding the nomination of Judge Merrick Garland for the Supreme Court under Obama.  McConnell refused to even hold a hearing, even though the U.S. Constitution required it.  We need to abide by the Constitution, at all times!

     If you allow Senator McConnell to dictate to you what he wants, the United States will not go anywhere but down, and no one will benefit from this.  Considering our position in the world, the United States cannot afford to stand still because of the disruptions in the economy he will no doubt cause

     I truly believe that Senator McConnell wants to turn the U.S. into a one-party state, taking away all our Constitutional rights, and become a totalitarian society.  If you allow McConnell to get his way 100 percent of the time, this just might happen.  This is what the American people fear.

     Please do not allow this to happen.  I am reaching out to you and all your Republican colleagues to stand up to Senator McConnell when he demands a bill to pass when he is wrong on it, or simply ignores an important issue and casts it aside to be ignored.  He has stacks of bills he has ignored throughout the years, and this cannot be allowed to continue

     Be your own individual self, and stand up for what YOU believe in, not Mitch McConnell.  Say “NO” to Mitch McConnell if necessary because America depends on it.

     We, as Americans, are going through a crisis right now, and our very survival depends on what you do in the next two to four years.  Please do what is RIGHT!  Please stand up for what you believe in, even if your colleagues don’t agree with you.  Please stand up to Mitch McConnell, please stand up for the American people, and last, but not least, please support President Biden regardless of his political party.  The election is now over, and we need to work with each other as Americans, not members of a political party.

     Thank you for your attention, and I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Sincerely,

  Alastair S Browne
