There are four types/personalities of people.
1.Determine

- Want to make others look like fools
- Howard Zin revised the history books
- news content is highly politicized
- certain people want and are willing to lie so they can win.
- Some people resort to bullying to win
- some will concentrate upon intense and’s rather than results unless it favors their course.
- Do a search on YouTube for kindergarten of Eden Evan sayet
2.Day dreamers:
- share mainstream values because it’s easy.
- May lean left or right.
- Does like talking about politics.
- Follows the crowd. Everyone is turning away.
- Distrust of both parties.
- Distress people who ridicule
- they are comfortable not knowing the details of current events. To address these people you need to make current issues relatable to them.
3.Diluted:
- pride themselves of being well-informed.
- They enjoy debating. Armed with supporting facts and data.

4.Civil Warriors:

How to market information:

Tunnel training:
- We appeal on issues through emotion and logic, facts and figures, and personal example. Be careful to overload information to make your point. This will turn people off
Convincing the Day dreamers:
- Illustrate how liberal ideas will hurt people they intend to help.
- Show how liberals play unfair to the poor and middle class and women. The very people they want to help.
- Show them there is a growing movement from liberal politicians.
- Show how liberal politicians reduce and eliminate choice. We move labels by talking about right versus wrong, common sense versus nonsense but not liberal
Managing the bowl:
