(DIERSEN: I should write a book about those who promote hatred against federal employees and against federal retirees. I was a federal employee for almost 30 years. I have been a federal retiree for almost 24 years. Many millions do not seek jobs with the federal government because they know that they cannot pass a background investigation. Other reasons why they do not apply include: a) pay and benefits are terrible, b) advancement opportunities are terrible, c) they lack required education, work experience, professional certifications, and/or professional licenses, d) they cannot pass an employment examination, e) they cannot pass a physical examination, f) they cannot take the demonization, denigration, and condemnation that comes with being a federal employee or federal retiree, and/or g) they are Republican, White, male, older, and/or non-veteran and they know that the federal government discriminates against the aforesaid.)

WIKIPEDIA
— Political Organization
(DIERSEN: I should write a book about leaders of Republican organizations, their major donors, their political consultants, and their fundraisers who want their members to know only what they tell them, and no more, and no less. Most commonly, they do not want their members to read articles that promote the traditional marriage/family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and/or equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party platform. In my book, I would focus on present and past leaders of the Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, Milton Township Organization, TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois, and Illinois Center Right Coalition since 2000. I would focus on the aforesaid who a) discourage me from sending out GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters and b) discourage everyone from reading those newsletters.)
