When opposing the Stamp Act (and eventually nullifying it), here’s a strategy that Samuel Adams NEVER took.
“Let’s replace the current leaders with new ones that agree with us.”
Why? Because leadership isn’t the problem. The system is.
“Voting the bums out” is a complete and utter failure. Put your energy where it can actually work.
Refuse to comply. Nullify.
