I
am running for Congress in an effort to correct problems which
currently beset our country. Social Security and Energy Independence
are the first two items on the list above because they are the most
important and they are related ( click on the link for details ). We
can fix Social Security without
raising
taxes or cutting benefits. We can become self sufficient in the
production of gas and oil. There are solutions to our problems and
you ( the voter ) must elect individuals who will act to solve the
problems. You must vote for individuals who are not members of the two
parties that caused the problems.
My views on how to fix our
problems are contained in the articles listed above. Most of our social
and
economic problems would not have occurred if our politicians had
adhered to
the Constitution, instead of following the dictates of the various
special interest groups who fund their re-election coffers.
Unlike the politicians who
say you should vote for them because they are not the other guy. I am
putting my views on how to solve our problems in writing. Some of these
views will be controversial. The current
administration has adopted policies
which will destroy our country. The problem with the
Republicans is that the move to bigger and more intrusive government
has still been occuring under their watch. The voter must start
electing someone other than the galloping socialists ( Democrats ) or
the creeping socialists ( Republicans ).
Our
politicians have learned to run as stealth
candidates who say what polls indicate a majority want to hear, or only
mouth platitudes in order to avoid offending voters. You as a voter
must reject such deception and vote for people who will honor the oath
of office. Our country is in a
deep financial hole and hard choices are
going to have to be made. You must be willing to vote for people who
will make the hard choices and work to fix the problems, instead of
politicians who are bought and paid for by special interest groups.
A recent article
in the Macomb Daily indicates the incumbent ( Sander Levin ) has
raised
almost 2 million dollars for his re-election fund. A professional
politician
is going to represent the interests of the people who fund his
campaign. When you see and hear non-stop attack adds during the week
before the election, you need to ask yourself who is paying for the
adds? If the money is coming from special interest groups, the
politician is not going to have your interest at the top of his agenda.
I will never win a beauty
contest and, as an individual who retired from the most hated federal
agency in the country ( the IRS ), you will not elect me because you
think I am a nice guy. The reason you should vote for me is because I
will do my best to honor the oath of office. My training in
interpreting and applying the law came from the IRS. I read the
Constitution the same way I was trained to read tax law. If the wording
makes sense, it is to be applied as written ( my personal opinion does
not apply ). Any congress person who ignores the constitution, and any
judge who tries to rewrite the Constitution is violating their oath of
office and should be replaced. You the voter have the responsibility of
replacing congress critters. Congress has the responsibility to fire
civil officers ( judges and everyone appointed by the president ) who
violates their oath of office. Please note that all of our presidents
czars should have taken an oath to support the constitution. If they
did not take this oath, they have already committed an impeachable
offense.
If
elected I will do my
best to enforce the provisions in the Constitution. I ask for your
votes. We need individuals elected to all levels of office who will
make a commitment to honor their oath of office. If you the voter elect candidates who do not honor the oath of office, our problems will continue and we will suffer a
complete financial collapse, our standard of living will continue to
decline and this country will continue it's slide into Socialism.
I am doing my part by
running for office,
the rest is up to you.
