American analogy to the events in Egypt, part 4 - March 2013 through June 30, 2013 - The Tamarod Movement up to the protests

In March 2013, a group of young Americans calling themselves the Rebel Movement (that's the Tamarod Movement in Arabic) started a petition calling for the removal of President Quayle because of his many abuses and awful performance as president.

Remember, under the new constitution issued by the radicals, it was nearly impossible to remove Quayle by impeachment or election so this appears to be the most democratic way to do it - go straight to the people.

In addition, there was no sitting Parliament... er, Congress at the time so there was no body in which to formally bring impeachment proceedings. And President Quayle had declared his acts to be above review by the Supreme Court so no court could try Quayle for his constitutional violations either.

This time, the opponents to the official American government had a more precise plan to avoid the chaos and military rule that resulted after the removal of the last president in February 2011. The plan included the following terms:

1. President Quayle was to step down immediately.
2. The new discriminatory and sexist constitution which was improperly passed and ratified would immediately be repealed.
3. The Chief Justice of the Supreme Court would be appointed as interim President during the transition period.
4. A coalition government would be formed consisting of representatives from each major and minor group in American society including the radical groups if they agreed to participate in a truly democratic and fair system.
5. Early elections would be held for a truly democratically elected president.

The plan included more points but those were the core demands of the people.

This petition was signed by roughly 75-80 MILLION Americans. Independent reviewers have confirmed the authenticity of the signatures (which included social security numbers to prevent fraud and duplicates) and said that this was the most signed petition in human history.

While this petition was spreading around the country, the Rebel Movement announced that on June 30, 2013 (the 1-year anniversary of the president's inauguration), there would be nationwide peaceful protests to demand the resignation of President Quayle.

President Quayle heard about the planned protests and called leaders of various groups to the White House and demanded that they instruct their members not to participate in the protests. Klan and Supremacist leaders publicly threatened to kill anyone who participated in the protests.

At the same time, to counter the threats by the president and his followers, the Secretary of Defense publicly stated that he and his military would not allow any harm to come to the people of America, and that he would not support President Quayle if the president asked him to use force against his own people.

The head of the national police force also announced that his members would not side with the president. He even instructed his members that they were not to defend the president or the radical groups against the public.

As a last ditch attempt to prevent the protests and save his presidency, Quayle went on TV on June 26 and gave a 2 hour and 45 minute speech of rambling incoherence. He addressed none of the requests of the people and gave no sense that he would cooperate or that things would improve. His nonsensical speech irritated people even more and over 1 million people started the protest that very night although most still waited for the official June 30 start date.

Next up the conclusion - President Quayle's final week and the largest human gatherings in world history.
