2010
This mid-term election may well be our last chance to preserve our Republic. We will do all we can to provide information on candidates.
Here is a good site on the races throughout Minnesota:
Minnesota 2010 Midterm Election
On this page I would invite any candidates for office representing Minnesota to post a short essay, ” Why should you vote for me?” This is one attempt to connect candidates with voters, please expect questions as the people may want you to clarify your positions. Please be sure to include the office you are running for in your post.
Thank you,

Why should you vote for me?
I am not a career politican. I am not a lawyer, millionaire, or CEO of a company looking to use the Office of Governor to enhance my standing in the party. I am an average Minnesotan who looks at my paycheck eveytime and wonders where it went. I hear about the budget and wonder how supposedly educated people cannot get the simple principle that you can’t spend more than you make. I have debated other candidates and I hear “let’s tweek this tax program or modify this program or scale back this tax increase” and realize that most of them don’t get it. In Minnesota we need jobs and total tax reform. We need to stop the trail of U-Hauls leaving the state with people and businesses in them. Minnestoa is hands down the best place to live in the US. But we have to improve on the basics. We need to get the budget under control and become the most business friendly state in the Union. Look up my website and get a clearer picture of where I stand. It has to start at the top with a Governor whos says we will do this and who will not take no for an answer. I am that candidate. I will talk to anyone who invites me to tea parties or debates. The two big parties don’t like to include me ( or other third parties) in debates but the tea party movement is made to give everyone a fair chance.
Thank you
