Surprising New Strategy Released for GOP Insurgent Campaigns

Raleigh, NC, USA (November 11, 2015) -- Contact: Americans for Legal Immigration PAC (ALIPAC) | (866) 703-0864 | WilliamG@alipac.us

Overpasses for America (405) 788-0266 | Overpasses@gmail.com

Zach Werrell (301) 481.1500 zwerrell@gmail.com

After many months of planning and anticipation among activists fighting illegal immigration, ALIPAC is releasing the next critical component of the strategy to primary more Establishment Eric Cantor-type Republicans out of office in the 2016 cycle.

Earlier in 2015, ALIPAC released The Cantor List, which is an unprecedented comprehensive list of all the incumbent Republicans in federal offices that have been documented supporting amnesty for illegal aliens, just like Eric Cantor. Congressman Eric Cantor's defeat, despite his ability to outspend GOP primary challenger Dave Brat 40 to 1, was achieved by accurately informing Republican voters of his support for immigration reform amnesty for illegals.

Cantor was defeated by Dave Brat, and ALIPAC's new strategy announcement is that Brat's GOP Primary campaign manager, Zach Werrell, has now formed a campaign consulting firm - Sic Semper Strategies - that is now available to help multiple Republican challengers in all states defeat corrupt DC establishment candidates and amnesty supporters like those on the Cantor List!

Werrell has also just published a new book called, "How to Bag a RINO", with Gray Delany, Dave Brat's former Deputy Campaign Manager, which is intended to be a 'How To' manual for GOP primary challengers running against establishment Republicans that have betrayed their base on issues like illegal immigration and amnesty!

"Zach Werrell's new campaign consulting firm and his new book, 'How To Bag A RINO,' can provide insurgent conservative campaigns challenging amnesty backing Republicans, like those found on our Cantor List, with unprecedented resources, knowledge, and power!", said William Gheen, President of ALIPAC. "We are now working hard to inspire and recruit as many quality candidates as possible so we may then import the successful formula that took down Eric Cantor into their campaigns!"

Copies of How to Bag a RINO: The Whiz Kids Who Brought Down House Majority Leader Eric Cantor can be purchased at: http://www.howtobagarino.com

"ALIPAC's efforts helped make the defeat of Eric Cantor possible. The Cantor List is a great tool to help the grassroots identify which Republican incumbents are out of touch with the base conservative voter,." said Zach Werrell. "The results from last June were no fluke. My hope is the replicate our success last year in Central Virginia in as many States and Congressional Districts as possible. This is why anyone who wishes to throw sand in the Establishment's gears needs to buy a copy of 'How to Bag a RINO' and find a candidate. If you already have a candidate to challenge a RINO, read the book and contact me. This is literally a battle for the preservation of our Republic, do not try to go it alone. "

Zach Werrell is currently working to help JD Winteregg replace John Boehner in Ohio, Jay Kinzler challenging Peter Roskam in Illinois, Curtis Coleman challenging John Boozeman for the Arkansas Senate Seat, and several other candidates that will be announced soon.

"We are going to circulate this great news and strategy to all of our Overpasses for America state groups, and ask them to work hard to find GOP challengers for the amnesty supporting Republicans on the Cantor List. Then work to get Zach Werrell and his book into those campaigns." said James Neighbors, President of Overpasses for America. "With illegal immigration now being the top issue of the 2016 campaign cycle, we have a real opportunity to utilize this targeting list, book, and new consulting service to defeat many more Eric Cantor type Republicans!"

The US Chamber of Commerce is deploying an effort to spend 100 million dollars in 2016 to defeat incumbent Republicans that have blocked their 'immigration reform' amnesty legislation from reaching Obama's desk for signature.

ALIPAC hopes that the Cantor List, Zach Werrell's new book and consulting firm, and the efforts of grass roots activists in organizations like Overpasses for America can overcome the Chamber's efforts and make 2016 the year that Americans threw more illegal immigration amnesty supporting Republicans and Democrats out of office than ever before!

Gossip, circumstantial evidence, and sensationalist media coverage continually feed that presumption. There is just one problem. He didn't do it.

ALIPAC Calls for a Primary Challenger for Speaker Paul Ryan

Raleigh, NC, USA (October 30, 2015) -- Contact: ALIPAC | (866) 703-0864 | WilliamG@alipac.us

Responding to the news that Representative Paul Ryan (R-WI) has been elected as the new Speaker of the House replacing John Boehner, Americans for Legal Immigration PAC is calling for a GOP primary challenger to remove Ryan from office in 2016 in the same way that Eric Cantor lost his seat for supporting amnesty for illegal immigrants.

Republican lawmakers elected Ryan as Speaker despite a massive outcry from their constituents that lit up DC phone lines and social media against Paul Ryan because Ryan supports immigration reform amnesty and actually voted to fund Obama's illegal, unconstitutional, and unpopular amnesty orders.

Rep. Ryan's vote to support Obama's amnesty orders, which 26 states are suing to stop, earned him a position on ALIPAC's "Cantor List," which contains the names of Republican lawmakers who are documented as supporting amnesty for illegals as Eric Cantor did. Cantor was defeated in a landslide by challenger Dave Brat despite the fact that Cantor outspent Brat 40 to 1.

"Everywhere you could see on social media and in online forums, conservatives were screaming at the top of their lungs for GOP lawmakers not to nominate another Obama protecting and facilitating, illegal alien amnesty supporting, Chamber of Commerce puppet like Paul Ryan and John Boehner!" said William Gheen, President of ALIPAC. "Paul Ryan needs to be thrown out of office like Eric Cantor! We need a strong GOP challenger who opposes amnesty for illegals and Obama's unconstitutional amnesty orders to file for office against Paul Ryan. That candidate could then give a voice to all of the Americans who told these lawmakers not to elect Ryan. There is clearly a large degree of national support for a true conservative to run against Paul Ryan in 2016."

ALIPAC hopes that other grassroots conservative organizations will join the call for a strong and qualified GOP challenger to announce against Paul Ryan and the other constituent betraying lawmakers on The Cantor List (Click to view). While some profiles are not yet complete, most of the names on the Cantor List have their own "amnesty support profile" which quickly provides information and sources to voters and campaigns alike proving the lawmaker's support for amnesty.

Polling data shows that a super majority of GOP voters oppose immigration reform amnesty for illegals, despite the fact that pro amnesty groups like Fox News and the Associated Press have paid for designer polls that fictitiously claim most Americans favor amnesty instead. The true polling data is reflected in Donald Trump's meteoric rise to his double digit first place position in the GOP Presidential primary by bringing attention to illegal alien crimes and promising to deport all illegal immigrants as current US laws ratified by Congress require.

"Any GOP primary challenger in America can quickly and inexpensively take the lead against amnesty supporting RINOs like Boehner, Cantor, McCarthy, Chaffetz, and Paul Ryan by promising to deport all illegals just like Donald Trump!" said William Gheen. "The true polling data and these astounding elections examples show that Americans are fighting mad about illegal immigration and immigration reform amnesty supporting members of Congress. We are going to do all in our power to see more corrupt DC politicians like Paul Ryan thrown out of office in 2016."

The US Chamber of Commerce has vowed to deploy more than 100 million dollars to defeat members of Congress in 2016 who have stood up against and stopped amnesty legislation such as Marco Rubio's S. 744. Many of the Chamber's targets are found on ALIPAC's endorsement list. (Click to view)

New Book Release - AGING: WARNING - Navigating Life's Medical, Mental & Financial Minefields, by Sharon Sebastian

AGING: WARNING - Navigating Life's Medical, Mental & Financial Minefields, by Sharon Sebastian, faults a failed Government and Care Industry in this highly Explosive Exposé.

Sarasota, FL, USA (October 29, 2015) -- Guerilla journalist, Sharon Sebastian, writes a timely and prescient book with shocking insights about aging in America.

"Make no mistake; aging in America is warfare. Families suffer, lives are lost prematurely, and incomes are under siege." - Sharon Sebastian, Author

Sharon Sebastian's "AGING: WARNING - Navigating Life's Medical, Mental & Financial Minefields" is a take-no-prisoners exposé about the malfeasance of government and the multi-billion dollar elder care industry. Families, seniors, and veterans must not attempt to maneuver the minefields of medical or elder care without being armed with this book. Sebastian warns, "Families need to know what they don't know."

Embedded for years within the elder care system from hospitals to nursing homes, Sebastian uncovers a system that is deeply flawed and a liability to the future of the American family. A multi-year investigation reveals that seniors and their families are both targets and casualties of a profit-driven care industry and culpable State and Federal governments.

Input from top experts from various fields is coupled with insider knowledge on how families may remain safe, sane, and solvent. Patients and families demanded that "the truth must be told." First-hand investigations give vital insight to the rapidly increasing numbers of families who "need to know."

Sharon Sebastian witnessed it, researched it, and now shares it as she openly warns about the perils of aging in her fight for the rights and protections of all Americans. Charting a path for change, Sebastian sets a course for redirection at a time critical to America's future.

Sharon Sebastian, author of "Aging: WARNING - Navigating Life's Medical, Mental & Financial Minefields" is a columnist, commentator and contributor in print and on nationwide broadcasts on topics ranging from healthcare, culture, religion, and politics to domestic and global policy. Website: http://www.AgingWarning.com

New Book Release - Anything for Amelia, by Andrew C. Branham

Anything for Amelia, by Andrew C. Branham, tells a horrific adoption story of fraud and abuse.

Jackson, MI, USA (October 29, 2015) -- Andrew C. Branham's Anything for Amelia is a true story of the challenges endured by two gay men who had the desire to adopt a child. Consistently ranked in the top 100 on Amazon. All FIVE Star Reviews!

When Andrew and DJ decided to adopt and bring a child into their lives, little did they know what they were about to endure; yet never did the thought cross their minds to give up. The horrific, pitilessly, and beyond comprehensible hoops one women would make them jump through demonstrates beyond a shadow of a doubt that little Amelia was going to be much better off in the loving home that Drew and DJ could provide her. Just when you think, how can two people survive such a nightmare and the journey is just about over when little Amelia is born and will be safely in the arms of her loving dads, Sandi decides to pull one more shenanigan that could change their lives forever.

More than 10 million adults have been adopted or fostered in their childhood. Along with spiraling increases in adoptions comes a growing need to disclose the significant flaws in adoption laws that open the doors to fraud, manipulation, and abuse of the system. AMELIA is the first book to explore this dark side of the adoption process through the true story of one couple's journey through hell. Called "the most difficult adoption in U.S. history" by adoption experts, the book appeals to nearly all families (traditional and non-traditional) interested in adoption, foster parenting, or surrogacy. An amazing book filled with tips, advice, and eye-opening first-hand accounts, this is one feel-good story that serves an important purpose and fills a critical gap in adoption literature. - D. J. Herda

Common throughout the reviews - "A must read!, Intriguing, I was sad and needed to stop for many tissues, Shocking Story, Eye opening, Awesome, Loved, Great, Heart-breaking, Touching, Beautiful, ..." This book is the type of book you will not put down until you're done, and even at that point you will want to re-read it.

Keywords - Gay, Dads, Adoption, Horrific, Nightmare, Child, DFS, Adopt, Advice, How To, Relationship, LGBT

The ebook version of Anything for Amelia ISBN 9781506900278, published by First Edition Design Publishing, is available on-line wherever ebooks are sold. The 234 page print book version, ISBN 9781506900261 is published by First Edition Design Publishing and distributed worldwide to online booksellers.

Rosendin Electric Ranks Third on EC&M List of Top 50 Electrical Contractors for 2015

New Construction Projects, Increased Demand for Data Services, and More Efficient Field Operations Contribute to Improved Revenues for Rosendin Electric.

San Jose, CA, USA (October 23, 2015) -- Rosendin Electric, one of the nation's largest private electrical contractors and an employee-owned company, was ranked third by revenue on the 2015 list of Top 50 Electrical Contractors compiled by Electrical Construction & Maintenance (EC&M) Magazine. Rosendin Electric was the only privately held electrical contractor to rank in the top four in revenue.

Rosendin Electric was among 10 contractors on the EC&M list to post annual gains of 15 percent or more in 2014. Much of the growth is attributed to economic recovery, since overall revenue from electrical and telecommunications projects climbed from $15.7 billion in 2013 to $21.8 billion in 2014. Regional markets where Rosendin Electric has a strong presence, such as San Francisco and Silicon Valley, have seen resurgence in new construction in 2014 and 2015 due to pent up demand. Rosendin Electric also had a variety of projects in the industries that demonstrated the strongest growth - healthcare, data center, power, education, and manufacturing.

In addition to increasing their volume of construction projects, Rosendin Electric continues to be a pioneer amongst peers in the development of technology to improve operational efficiency. Rosendin Electric was one of the first electrical contractors to equip project managers, superintendents, and field supervision with tablets to allow them to review project specs and diagrams, clock workers in and out, manage the supply chain, and much more. The use of sophisticated materials tracking software, for example, supports just-in-time delivery of essential materials to the job site to eliminate construction downtime. In addition, Rosendin Electric provides its employees with comprehensive documentation and hands-on training, as well as webinars and video clips to improve efficiency and safety in the field, all of which contributes to improved efficiency and reduced costs.

"There are so many ways that technology has helped us to become more productive," Sam Lamonica, CIO of Rosendin Electric, told EC&M. "We now have tools to help us with everything from estimating to modeling to prefabrication. The benefits are just so wide-ranging."

About Rosendin Electric

Rosendin Electric, Inc., headquartered in San Jose, California, is an employee-owned electrical engineering, power, and communications provider and is one of the largest privately held electrical contractors in the United States. With over 3,500 employees and experience worldwide, Rosendin Electric has built upon a 95-year reputation for quality design and installations.

New Book Release - Unwonted Reflections, by Barry Cheskin

Unwonted Reflections, by Barry Cheskin, is an "out of the ordinary" set of haiku and other unwonted poems weaned on hardship and reflection.

Boston, MA, USA (October 21, 2015) -- Barry Cheskin' Unwonted Reflections is a book of quotes and poems are dedicated to those who have suffered through life's hardships. It's a collection of reflections and poems that have been in the works for close to a decade.

"As a life-long musician, with forty-four years' experience, I always loved songwriting, but couldn't find a wide audience. This book has been written with one goal: To reach people that could use a little bit of inspiration in their tough daily lives. It's not meant to ignore the good life, but rather focuses on hope, especially for those struggling with their lives. It's a book of empathy. Its purpose is to leave something for the world in order to make it just a slightly better place. I say that with courage because it comes across as rather arrogant, but I only say that because the bottom line is that I care about people. I've simply desired to share my thoughts with folks, hoping it can at least create one smile or tear."

Barry Cheskin is a musician of forty-four years who also loves to write. He learned piano at the age of 3 and learned guitar at age 11. He grew up in Longmeadow, Massachusetts with a happy childhood, but as an adult has struggled with hardships, including two divorces and the death of both his parents at too young an age. He graduated from the Boston University College of Communications with a Bachelor of Science in 1990. He has always had pets, and currently has a Chihuahua he treats as his own daughter. Barry has spent fifteen years working in the insurance industry, but has spent years writing on the side as a hobby. Barry was born in 1968, a rather wild year for the earth to experience. He hopes to inspire many people with his book of quotes and poems.

New Book Release - Reinventing The World, We Can Do Better, by Ben Korgen

Reinventing The World, We Can Do Better, by Ben Korgen, highlights the stagnant repetition of ineffective leadership and how we can break free.

Hope Valley, RI, USA (October 21, 2015) -- Ben Korgen's Reinventing The World, We Can Do Better defines history recycling leadership spawning repeating cycles of prosperity, poverty, tranquility and violence.

This book suggests we can escape this by preparing political leaders for recruiting idea people, harvesting ideas, filtering out the best ones and subjecting them to worldwide referendums.

Humans will need fresh ideas. People tend to elect leaders whose image is a stable, solid citizen who can govern the ship of state with a steady hand on the helm. However, idea people usually do not make good leaders. Their most valuable thoughts pop into their heads at random in ways that prospective voters perceive as erratic and undesirable in leadership positions.

Science, engineering and technology have long histories of racing forward with little or no recycled effort. They have accomplished this driven by leaders who realize that maintaining the forward momentum depends on accepting the inputs of idea people.

This book addresses needs for a worldwide effort by offering a sample path for testing, adopting or discarding for something better. This path includes methods of world-scale recruitment of idea people, harvesting ideas, filtering them to winnow out the most promising ones and debating their value before worldwide referendums for approval and implementation.

Author Ben Korgen has had a highly varied career. He served in the US Navy, earned a bachelor's degree at the University of Minnesota Duluth, earned a master's degree at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, then coached high school football, earned a PhD in Oceanography at Oregon State University and had a long and rewarding career in Oceanography at the US Naval Oceanographic Office, the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill and Tulane University in New Orleans.

Genre - History-Recycling Leadership, Idea People, Idea Creation, Idea Sorting, Linking Ideas to Leadership

The ebook version of Reinventing The World, We Can Do Better ISBN 9781622879823, published by First Edition Design Publishing, is available on-line wherever ebooks are sold.

American Shero, by Courtney Long, is a black, Brooklyn, female coming of age story, set in the ever-changing drama of modern love and romance.

Brooklyn, NY, USA (October 21, 2015) -- Courtney Long's American Shero is satirical next wave feminism, politically incorrect, and an honest look at the current state of young love in America.

When it comes to relationships, there exist four states: you're either trying to get in one, out of one, maintain one, or get over one. Brooklynite, Zay Shero Harrison is stuck in the state of trying to get over one. Her three girlfriends hold down the other three.

AMERICAN SHERO is a satirical, next wave feminism, humor, politically incorrect, and an honest look at the current state of young love in America. SHERO is the face of what it looks like, feels like, and acts like, as well as the heroic stance one assumes when daring to undertake, or even avoid such relations.

Also a playwright in residence at La Garra Theatre in Silver Spring, MD, under the non de plume, Bless ji Jaja, he has directed and worked with such talents as Oscar nominated, Taraji P. Henson, Emmy recipient, Shemar Moore, and Grammy recipient, Erykah Badu.

Courtney is a graduate of Howard University's College of Fine Arts and lives in Brooklyn, New York where he is a teaching artist at Bedford-Stuyvesant Restoration Plaza's Youth Arts Academy.
