Please Remember!
 
This and every electoral year is an important time. Everyone's Vote Counts!
 
The United States Electoral and Democratic process depends on you.
This is a government of the people...of legal citizens.
 
Please stay vigilant and diligent in your participation.
 
Please...
Use discretion when discerning the issues, candidates and their platforms.
Be mature in your selection. Our future depends on it.
Don't vote for who appeals to you, but rather who has the most substance.
 
Please...
Do not vote for personality, religious persuasion, ethnicity, or gender.
 
Consider that...
Partisanship is divisive. It is crippling our government!
 
We need leaders that:
 
1. Are Mature and Command worthy.
We don't need another President that will frivolously engage the United States Military
in a war of aggression, acting on a personal agenda rather than true National Defense initiative.
Please support the minority that sacrifice for the majority, but also recognize that the role of the
Unites States Military should be reserved to matters of National Defense. We are not the World Police!
 
2. Promote a system of Secure Borders and Controlled Immigration.
A mature, democratic society should have a managed immigration. It is important that we have
a system of proper and documented citizenship, or the republic at risk of decline resulting from anarchy.
 
3. Understand that they are an Elected and Official Representative of the People.
The people are the ones that have exercised the trust of electing them as a representative. The elected
representative should always be wary that they are in service to the citizens of the United States
rather than promoting personal agendas and the agendas of special interests. This prompts a focus of
ensuring that policy and regulation benefits the interests of the nation as a whole.
 
4. Are Mature Managers of the Economy.
Representatives should be economically focused with regard to budgeting the distributions of our
monetary contributions to the government (taxes). A stable economy is dependent on a careful, efficient,
and prudent use and distribution of resources. The business of managing, legislating or judiciating our
resources should exercise restraint of waste. Pork-barrel legislation is draining our economy.
The unnecessary war in Iraq is draining our economy. Lack of proper investment in America is draining
our economy. Subsidizing corporate and governmental "special interests" is draining our economy.
 
5. Are Independent.
Partisanship is divisive. There may be argument in the observance of Partisan platform
during the campaign process as a system of congregating for a candidate, but once elected the
partisanship of the representative should be abandoned. It is crippling our government. The
partisan practices of "non-cooperation" and "defiance" are counter productive. Our government,
our economy and our democracy suffers from the inability of our government representatives
to work effectively. They need to start working "together" for the benefit of the country.
 
**
Some of the best candidates for President are no longer engaged in the campaign process.
It is disappointing to witness the lack of support for some of these "best Candidates".
Some were laughed out by immature and irresponsible judgements of their personalities.
The field is being narrowed and it is important that we maintain a discerning attitude.
Please don't take our government and the electoral process for granted!
Democracy depends on You!
