“You probably haven’t heard of HD Moore, but up to a few weeks ago every Internet device in the world, perhaps including some in your own home, was contacted roughly three times a day by a stack of computers that sit overheating his spare room. In February last year he decided to carry out a personal census of every device on the Internet as a hobby. ‘[It] drew quite a lot of complaints, hate mail, and calls from law enforcement,’ he says. But the data collected has revealed some serious security problems, and exposed some vulnerable business and industrial systems of a kind used to control everything from traffic lights to power infrastructure.” more

Having known Amanda Teegarden for more than four years now and having worked side-by-side with her on many issues and campaigns; I believe she is the right person to lead Oklahoma as state GOP Chair. Her work with the grassroots has helped unite groups and individuals to become more effective activists. I believe Amanda will not only grow the party in numbers but more importantly, will grow the activists within the party. more

“Having worked in the grassroots with Amanda Teegarden for many years, I believe she is exactly what we need for leadership in the Republican Party. We are facing a decision point right now, with the national organization believing in a top-down structure where political consultants direct our policy, our party, and our rules. We have the perfect opportunity here in Oklahoma to show that our party is one of the people, which starts with the grassroots and works its way to the top and not the other way around. Amanda has been a strong voice and leader in the grassroots, and I feel she will make a great leader for our state party as well.” more

As I did this, I begin to hear a few names over and over again. Amanda Teegarden was one such name and she was always referenced positively, regardless of the group. “Amanda Teegarden will know, ask her.” “If Amanda says it, then it’s true.” “You should read Amanda’s research, she’s a self-taught expert on that issue.” “The meeting will be worth your time, Amanda’s speaking.” Once while lobbying at the capitol with other citizen activists, I heard a State Representative remark that a certain piece of proposed legislation had already been run past Amanda, so “we” shouldn’t worry. This comment is very telling. It demonstrates just how much weight her integrity and tenacity carried in both realms.
As I became more involved, I began to realize that this one woman was making a difference up at the capitol and all across our state, with her intelligence, her hard work and her perseverance. She was also making a difference to the new wave of grassroots activists like me who needed to see for ourselves that it could be done. more
