— How to run for office: The game hasn’t changed that much – Jim Nowlan
(DIERSEN: I should write a book about my critics/opponents who shout at
candidates a) that they should not keep diersen@aol.com on
their press advisory or press release lists and b) that if they lose, it will
be because of Dave Diersen and his GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails.)
https://www.effinghamdailynews.com/opinion/columns/jim-nowlan-guest-columnist-how-to-run-for-office-the/article_186712c6-ec84-11e9-bb04-4313c584d14f.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: You
might have been asked recently to sign a petition to put a candidate on the
ballot in 2020. It’s that season and, though a truism, if good people don’t run
for office, democracy doesn’t work. You ought to try running. Here’s how. .
.There are four resources in every campaign: people, skill, money and time.
Every candidate has at least some of one or more of those resources. . .Today,
the guidance would be to build your friends on Facebook. Your friends become
volunteers, funders and word-spreaders — your “organization.” Don’t expect any
help from your local political party organization, which is likely on life
support. You and your friends also have skills, maybe at running a small
business, which is basically what a campaign is about — setting up a small
business that lasts about one year. You write a campaign plan, much like a
business plan. In the plan, you establish a vote-total goal and where those
votes are located; how to reach them; how much it will cost, and how to raise
the requisite amount. Depending upon the office you seek, your plan might
simply be in your head, or in a thick three-ring binder. But there has to be a
plan. Political consultant Steve Shearer of Peoria observes that 90 percent of
the candidates who spend more money than their opponents win. So, money is
important, though obviously not controlling in all cases. . .The Illinois State
Board of Elections website offers a complete Candidate’s Guide, which walks you
through the filing requirements. The key to success, from Lincoln’s day to the
present, is effective strategy (the plan), not tactics (specific tasks). .
.Steve says winning is about strategy, message and image. Strategy is based on
such factors as analysis of recent voting returns, the issues that move voters
in your constituency, both candidates’ (including the opponent) strengths and
weaknesses. From that comes the plan to achieve your vote-total goal.)

— When God Is Your Portfolio Manager Biblically responsible investing is
booming, as some Christians move to match their faith with their stock buys –
Jason Zweig
https://www.wsj.com/articles/when-god-guides-your-investment-portfolio-11570811305
(FROM THE ARTICLE: What
would Jesus buy? That question is spreading in the investing world, as
evangelicals and other Christians seek investment management and financial
planning to match their interpretation of biblical principles. The latest sign
of the rise of faith-based investing was the launch of the Inspire
International ESG exchange-traded fund on Sept. 30. Its ticker symbol? WWJD,
short for the popular expression “What would Jesus do?” Many socially
responsible investors favor companies that recruit LGBT workers or donate to
Planned Parenthood and the like. By contrast, biblically responsible investors
shun companies that profit from or support abortion, pornography, gambling, or
LGBT issues. No matter what you believe or how you invest, the advent of this
approach highlights the promise and perils of socially responsible investing in
general: You can salve your conscience, or you can earn higher returns. It
isn’t likely you can do both. Biblically responsible investing, or BRI, is
booming as investment managers who are losing assets to index funds strive to
find new niches.)

PUBLIC RELATIONS NEWS
— 9 Things About Public Relations They Didn’t Teach You in College – Arthur
Solomon (DIERSEN: Of course, I should sue my critics/opponents who
hint/imply/argue/shout that I do not honor embargo requests, off-the-record
requests, etc.)
https://www.prnewsonline.com/journalists-media-relations
(FROM THE ARTICLE:
Embargo Just because a PR firm distributes a press release with the words
“Embargoed Until” atop it doesn’t mean that a reporter will honor it. Most
will, but it’s always good to have someone speak to the journalist and request
she agree to honor the embargo. Scientific studies sent to specific editors are
an exception. The same is true for releases saying “For Release After.” PR pros
should know that once a release is distributed, when it is used is up to
editors. Off-the Record You can tell a media member that something is “off-the-record,”
but it doesn’t mean a reporter considers it so. Establish off-the-record ground
rules upfront. Specifically, do so prior to conveying information you want kept
off-the-record. ‘If you don’t want it reported, don’t say it’ is the advice I
always give to executives before interviews or when they socialize with the
media. Recall Madeleine Westerhout, President Trump’s personal assistant, who
“quit” or was fired after making comments during a dinner. The event supposedly
was off-the-record.)
