A. Condensing a personal story to increase the chances that in his or her personal interest a presidential candidate reads its essence

  1. You, the reader, and all advocates of honest judiciaries, can approach a presidential candidate’s headquarters as a means of reaching his or her top staff to persuade them and through them the candidate to include, for the candidate’s benefit, not yours, the subject of judges’ unaccountability and consequent riskless wrongdoing(* >ol:265) in his or her platform and stump speech.

NOTE: All (blue text references) are keyed to my study of judges and their judiciaries, titled:

Exposing Judges’ Unaccountability and Consequent Riskless Wrongdoing:

  1. You may have a story, even one published as a book, that recounts your personal experience at the hands of wrongdoing judges. It may offer valuable support to your endeavor. Yet, one must be realistic about how politicians fighting for their survival in the presidential race allocate their time: They will not have enough time to read your book. If they or their staff read one, it would be about themselves, another current or past presidential candidate, or a key issue likely to come up at the next presidential debate or press conference, or the ever present issue: fund-raising.
  2. In fact, candidates do not even open the voluminous mail addressed to them; low-level staff do so. None of the decision-makers on their staff, let alone the candidates themselves, will have time to sit down to read a book and they will certainly not do so to help just one victim of judges.
  3. To reasonably expect the staff to learn about your story, never mind read anything about it and inform the candidate with the recommendation that he or she act on it, you need to do two things:

a. give them a motive to do so. There is no motive more powerful than advancing one’s own noble or crass interests; and

b. condense its essence, and all the more so if it is book-long, so that learning it will only take the limited amount of time that they will dedicate to anything joining the multitude of things already competing for their attention. You need to provide an executive summary.

  1. Here applies the principle “less is more”. This means that a short article on one side of one page or at the very most both sides of the page, including summarizing headings and subheadings, will be more effective because it will have greater chances of being read.
  2. Your executive summary should have the quality of an article in the likes of The New York Time, The Washington Post, and Politico. These are print media outlets that they read because their articles are written by reporters with first-hand knowledge of what they are writing about, provide substance and analysis, write well, and are opinion builders. Take them as your models.

       1.  The subject matter of your executive summary: what is representative of a national problem

  1. Only the essence of your story should find its way into your executive summary…and that is not the account of your experience at the hands of wrongdoing judges. Rather, its essence is in the elements that represent what has happened and is happening to millions[jur:8fn4,5] of users of the legal and judicial systems in our country as a result of unaccountable and wrongdoing judges. That is what in the midst of a presidential campaign can help campaign staff realize that they can benefit politically by appealing with empathy and a solution to those millions of people.
  2. Indeed, a candidate can ingratiate himself or herself with them by showing that he or she has taken cognizance of their victimization by both judges and those with whom they coordinate their wrongdoing, e.g., lawyers, police officers, bankruptcy trustees, bankers, etc.[169]; recognizes it as a problem of national scope and importance; and has a plan to deal with it. This means that your executive summary should not consist of a brief account of your story. Instead, it should focus on the electoral opportunity that its subject matter affords the candidate.
  3. Hence, you will not be writing the executive summary as a victim of wrongdoing judges. You are not a pro se. You are an advocate of honest judiciaries. You are writing a pithy position paper. Your objective is to persuade the candidate’s top campaign staff to recommend that their candidate include judicial wrongdoing exposure and reform in the core of his platform as a way of attracting ever more donors, volunteer workers, and attendees to his rallies.

2. The paper’s structure: the 6 Ws, statistics, and requested action

  1. Your story will help you identify the three to five most outrageous and insidious judicial wrongdoing practices that you encountered personally and that through your research to figure out what was going on you have determined to be most widespread and harmful(cf. jur:5§3; ol:154¶3).

    a. Opening with a hook of Ws followed by the mechanics of hoW

  1. Your opening paragraph must hook the reader’s attention by concisely stating why it is in his or her own interest to read your position paper. Journalists do this by answering the first four Ws of any story: What, When, Who, Where, dealt with in the first paragraph of an article(ol:134¶17.)
  2. You move on to hoW, explaining the enabling circumstances(ol:190¶¶1-7) of judges’ wrongdoing(jur:21§§1-3):

a. motive, generated by the benefits that they deem for the taking through wrongdoing;

b. means for wrongdoing, such as their judicial power enhanced by coordination among judges and between them and other insiders of the legal and judicial systems, including the politicians who recommended, nominated, and confirmed them to judgeships and since then protect their men and women on the bench by holding them unaccountable; and

c. opportunity to do wrong, such as the cases that they preside over in the courtroom or decide without reading their briefs; and the secret information that they receive in sealed documents, in conferences in chambers without court reporter, or through ex parte contacts.

    b. Persuasive statistics

  1. To show that the identified wrongdoing practices are widespread you may have to do some research to find persuasive statistics and provide their corresponding verifiable references. By relying on them as the pillars of your persuasive argument, rather than your personal local experience, you can make a story cum position paper as strong as a Brandeis brief, after the name of Attorney Louis Brandeis before he became a justice of the Supreme Court(ol:275§1).

   c. The analytical Why

  1. Your analysis of the above Ws answers Why judges do wrong and Why the candidate should expose it in their campaign and call for judicial reform(jur:158§§6-8) to prevent, detect, and punish their wrongdoing:

a. because of their unaccountability, enhanced by their secrecy(jur:27§e) and coordination among themselves and with others, judges abuse their judicial power in scores of millions of cases(ol:311¶1) to wrongfully grab with risklessness material[213](jur:27§2), professional[69](jur:56§§e-f), and social benefits(jur:62§g; a&p:1¶2nd); and

b. because there are millions of dissatisfied users of the legal and judicial systems, it is in a presidential candidate’s interest to become, even if only opportunistically, the standard bearer of their grievances and demands for relief, thus drawing electoral support from passionate(ol:311¶4) people in their quest for justice who form a huge untapped voting bloc.

    d. Action Requested as closing: a position paper becomes a proposal

  1. You close as lawyers and pro ses alike should do under the rules of procedure: by stating the relief sought, that is, the action that you ask the campaign staff and the candidate to take, such as:

a. submit your paper to the candidate, with the recommendation that he or she make judicial wrongdoing exposure and reform a central issue of his or her platform and stump speech;

b. invite us to make a presentation(ol:202) to the staff and the candidate on judges’ wrongdoing(jur:21§§A,B) and exposing it through two unique national stories(ol:190§§A,B);

c. call a press conference where the candidate will make a memorable Emile Zola’s I accuse!-like(jur:98§2) denunciation of judges’ unaccountability and riskless wrongdoing, which can launch a civic movement of We the People holding all OUR public officers accountable;

d. demand the release of FBI vetting reports on judges, beginning with those on justices, to determine whether politicians knew about judges’ wrongdoing and connived with them; and

e. invite the public to send to the candidate’s website their complaints about judges so that it, the candidate’s staff, professional and citizen journalists, and researchers can search them for patterns of individual and coordinated wrongdoing(ol:274), which may show wrongdoing to be the institutionalized modus operandi of judges and their judiciary(jur:49§4).

B. A presidential candidate that agrees to expose judges’ wrongdoing can change the dynamics of the national campaign and make you nationally known

  1. What started off as the offer of a book –too long to be read and presenting only the personal local story of one judicial wrongdoing victim– and transitioned to its executive summary, you transformed into a self-contained one-page depiction of a problem affecting a nation. Compare the initial offer with what you are holding out now: a proposal for a candidate to become the national Champion of Justice who advances the realization of the ideal of Equal Justice Under Law.
  2.  Your progression shows strategic thinking(ol:8§E): Indirectly advancing your interest and that of all advocates of honest judiciaries in obtaining what we sorely lack: access to the information disseminators, i.e., journalists and their media outlets(ol:308).
  3. We need them to inform the national public about, and outrage it at, unaccountable wrongdoing judges, and thus stir it up to demand that all candidates commit themselves to exposing judges, and call for nationally televised hearings on the issue where the People take center stage and coalesce into a movement (ol:292).
  4. The issue can come to dominate the campaign and lead to judicial reform that holds judges accountable as well as liable to compensate the victims of their wrongdoing(ol:271).

    C. Action that you can take turn judicial wrongdoing exposure and reform into a campaign issue

  5.  I encourage you to join forces with us, advocates of honest judiciaries, to take advantage of the need of each presidential candidate to survive politically by becoming for the  huge untapped voting bloc of all those dissatisfied with the judicial and legal systems their national Champion of Justice(ol:311 ).
  6. To that end, you can:

a.  share through your email list and post on blogs and websites the Proposal for Presidential Candidates (ol:311) or any of my posted articles, provided each is shared and posted in its entirety and without any addition, deletion, or modification, and credit is given to its author, Dr. Richard Cordero, Esq.;

b. personalize your one-page proposal to inform each candidate† of routine, widespread, and coordinated of what you have found to constitute forms of judicial wrongdoing(cf. jur:3§5), and persuade him or her to denounce judges’ wrongdoing(jur:21§§1-3; 65§§1-3) and demand that judges be held accountable for abiding by the principle that in government of, by, and for We the People nobody is above the law; † http://www.uspresidentialelectionnews.com/whos-running-for-president-in-2016/ ; and

c. network with people you know who know other people who know officers in any presidential candidate campaign, particularly the campaign manager, to make them aware of both the opportunity for them to draw electoral support from that huge untapped voting bloc and my offer to make a presentation thereon to them and the candidate at a video conference or in person.

22. Indeed, I offer to make a similar presentation to you, your colleagues, and your guests, followed by a Q&A and a strategizing session. See its contents at ol:190 and its corresponding slides at ol:202.

23. So I look forward to hearing from you. If you do not receive within four days at least my acknowledgment of receipt of your email, send it repeatedly until you do since it may have been intercepted(* >ggl:1 et seq.)

Dare trigger history(* >jur:7§5)…and you may enter it.
