From the President....

 

 

The upcoming presidential election is a very important one. Everyone must do their homework and vote for a candidate who understands the issues at hand, can be effective, and represents what is best for America. Understand why you are voting for someone and what qualifies that person for the position. Do not vote for a candidate who looks good, can talk a good line, or who gets applause for blowing his nose at a rally, those people are a dime a dozen. They are called actors. We need a real leader who understands America and what it stands for. With each election and every new law created we seem to move closer to socialism and it appears that the only thing we can do is choose how fast we want to get there. If you feel that the government can spend your money better that you can then you have no choice but to vote for one of the democrats. Otherwise, work hard to make sure that your candidate is given every chance to win. Volunteer to help, educate all that you can about what is at stake, and most of all pray.
