Operation American Spring. A good idea?

On May 16th there is a movement to galvanize 10s of millions of ppl to go to DC and peacefully protest until the resignation of obama, Holder, Boehner, and more.

I don't know how good of an idea this is. I mean first off, if the organizers are to be un-armed, as the site says, do they really think obama will resign? Surely they can't be that dumb. I mean I could see him being forced to step down if, let's say, 20 or 30 million ppl showed up, armed or not. But that's an unrealistic expectation.

Another thing: " Those with the principles of a West, Cruz, Dr. Ben Carson, Lee, DeMint, Paul, Gov Walker, Sessions, Gowdy, Jordan, should comprise a tribunal and assume positions of authority to convene investigations, recommend appropriate charges against politicians and government employees to the new U.S. Attorney General appointed by the new President."

While it's a nice vision, in reality I highly doubt any of them agreed to that.

I really don't think it's a good idea to telegraph your moves. I think many ppl will gather and converge on DC eventually, and it's inevitable, it will happen, but to announce to your enemy your plans? I just don't think that's a great idea.

    Do you really think Stalin would care if you went to the Kremlin and asked for his registration?

    Obama is no different in that he does not care what you think or do, but he might sic the IRS on all those people.
