My Friends as many of you know I am a Social Media Activist ! I am on Facebook have Four Pages I created or co created called People Suffering Due to Republicans Refusal to Expand Medicaid , Expand Medicaid Now People Need Help , ISSUES WE FACE , and Please sign my Petition to Help Expand Medicaid in Fl ! Plus two groups Expand Medicaid Now and Issues We Face on Facebook.  I tweet @FredChristian10 am on Google+ Instagram and I blog here and
; Tumblr too And I created the #ExpandMedicaidNow too !

Why do I do this and what is it I do I have been asked ? Well as I have blogged before I am uninsured in Fl. I need Medicaid my Governor wouldn’t Expand It !  The closest i ever came to Activism was 4 letters to the editor of The Ocala Star Banner ; After I watched MSNBC civer the 50 th Anniversary of the MLK “I HAVE A DREAM SPEECH ,”  I answered their question what would I do to advance the dream ? I said Be A Voice For The Voiceless like MLK was ! He is as is JFK BOBBY BILL CLINTON AND PRESIDENT OBAMA HEROES and Inspiration to me ! I was into civil rights in college and wanted to help others ! So on Sept 16 2013 It happened I I was in Church Calvary Chapel Hollywood Fl the Pastor challenged us as Christians to be involved in Government ! I came home and found a Move on Petition and started one to Expand Medicaid !

Now this was not easy for me in the beginning I didn’t really trust Social Media ! I heard the good and bad and was a skeptic ! I joined Facebook and twitter but only posted about sports and to @edshow ! Little did I realize those tweets on Local Government closing libraries and Fire Houses plus the 4 letters to the editor were preparing me for a great journey ! I had eye problems I can’t take pictures ! But I eas determined to be A VOICE FOR THE VOICELESS in Society ! There is a Million Uninsured In Fl – I was to be their voice and Face ! My goal talk to all who will listen !

The petition was grueling I thought No Problem I can get a million signers ! But for 2 months I got 14 ! Then I did an interview with The Miami Hearld ! It was a break ! But stll No signers ! So I joined Facebook groups got more signers was still tweeting and posting edshow ! I made mistakes locked myself out of my twitter acct ! Got back on and things began to work ! I had success messaging and promoting my cause ! But got only 2000 plus signers ! And it failed !  Along the way I formed the Facebook groups and pages I mentioned above ! I met alot of great peoole too ! Plus grew and helped on Gun Control ! And fought racists ! I have been harassed on Twitter by Trolls and had my life Threatened ! But We #TrollBusters have a policy of List Block Report ! I even have had my profile pic doctored with nasty memes ! But still  go on ….Why ? To help the 1 Million Uninsured in Fl and America ! My dad called it My Crusade ! …. I do not know about that but how many people can say they helped a Million people ? That is my goal that’s why I do this ! Not Fame as a friend predicts I will have ! I started writing posts and soon became a blogger to improve my message ! I am even in a film by fellow activist Called Entitled to Life Fl – Comming soon !
I have alot of respect for the Activists who take to the streets and do it peacefully ! How do they know where to go and what to say ? Social Media ! They tweet and post  about #Racism #Poverty #BlackLivesMatter #FightFor15 #ClimateChange #GlobalWarming #Homelessness #Veterans #Poverty #SinglePayer and my cause #ExpandMedicaidNow !  They use this to spread awareness ! It is a great Forum and could win elections soon ! I respect All who do this by doing so All Are : VOICES FOR THE VOICELESS ! As I try to be !  We are Unsung Heroes trying to right wrongs day and night ! And are a special group on Social Media old young middle aged all races and classes working for the betterment of America ! I challenge all out there if I can do this you can too ! I Love Ehat i do ! All out there Find a cause and participate and be A VOICE FOR THE VOICELESS ! We need You ! Thank you All my fellow activists on Social Media I love working with you ! I have a purpose greater than myself and that is as We All Do : BEING A VOICE FOR THE VOICELESS ! That is a great reward ! Thank you God Bless

    This is Terrific Fred! MyHero! The man who gave me, one of those middle aged disabled Activists who is Also a fellow MoveOn.org member, to give this blogging thing a go! Fred Christian & Pat Fuller have both stood behind TILLMAN TALKS POLITICS from its inception! So naturally I give this post an A! I’m still learning & not quite as knowledgeable as Fred yet my VOICE is just as LOUD! Thanks everyone for sticking with my page as it takes off from its infancy!
    Fred thank you for what you’ve done where you’ve come from & how far yet you have to go! Hopefully I’m just able to watch you climb higher from the sidelines! Your my inspiration & my very good friend! My Brother in Christ! I love you man & your Voice has been heard!
