How did this happen? How did a young man from a family of highly liberal siblings, living in the depths of Hollywood rock ‘n roll, suddenly become a devout conservative?!
How did this guy go from producing heavy metal band Motley Crue to producing a video which, literally overnight, became the lead story of Rush Limbaugh, Bill O’Reilly and other conservative news commentators!?
How, in the face of losing his closest friends within minutes after announcing he was Republican, did Jeffers M. Dodge stick with his conviction and deepen his involvement in the Conservative movement, making multiple contributions from political consultant, running for state office (in California!), producer of conservative videos, campaigning on the streets of “The People’s Republic of Santa Monica”, converting dozens of liberals, registering thousands of new republicans, launching and leading a monthly Republican group for years, creating a conservative content-sharing website that was threat enough for liberals to coordinate cyber attacks that culminated in a massive hacking-attack, traced back to the streets of Chicago, which crippled PopModal.com for months?
Perhaps the answer lies in the birth of his child, a stunning life-changing illness, a grandfather who served two presidents, and grass roots efforts that attracted the attention of Steve Bannon and Ann Coulter, who became true friends and supporters.
And how did Jeffers Dodge and his wife, also of a rock ‘n roll background, suddenly decide to uproot and move to an area of the country they had never visited, leaving behind all family and friends?
Success in Los Angeles conservative politics takes courage, because California reality dictates repeated disappointments and election failures. Success also puts a target on one’s back, and there were scary moments and incidents that arose in every area of Jeffers Dodge’s work as an advocate/activist for the Republican Party and Conservative Movement.
Jeffers has a few stories and heartfelt words of encouragement to share at the next meeting of the GOP of Benton County. Please bring a friend and join us!
