The Constitution is a document that we all should be proud of and look up too. We have a government that we the people choose by vote. I am proud to have the chance to run for elected office. My views and opinion’s were completely stopped by the newspapers, but that is what makes a free society. Private businesses being allowed to print what they want. The Union Leader did three quarters of an article about my opponent’s good and one small paragraph on my bad. The Fosters’ newspaper called me up moments before their article was printed. The reporter hung up on me in med sentence of my talking then wrote that I hung up. They did several great articles on my opponent over the summer. I have sent opinion letters every day to every NH newspaper about my views, goals and platform and not one would print any of my letters. Freedom and our Constitution is so great that our informed vote is what makes the U.S. eyed by the people of other countries.
I have volunteered so much helping other people ever day (for over 30 years) it makes no difference if I was elected to a $100.00a year job. I am proud to have the chance to run. The people made an informed choice. Amanda is a choice of the news media and I have to agree she is a nice person.
Freedom of the press was so important to our fore fathers that the Constitution contains articles protecting newspapers. We the U.S. military veteran’s gave our childhood to defend and protect it. You the 89% that never served frequently disregard other’s rights when it is to the special class‘s advantage.
I heard a person today tell me (as he was consoling me on my loss) that the people that served in our military come back with a demented since of reality and we should not hold public office any way. The person (that never served) said that Presidential candidate John McCain is the same way. The news media had very little good to say about McCain until his VP was picked (whom never served). A few years ago the news media destroyed John Kerry for his service to this nation.
The NH government, courts, law enforcement and newspapers violated so many Constitutional rights of the individual to stop me. The VA went so far as to stop my medical care. When a newspaper (Boston Globe) can in writing ask some one to commit suicide before writing another opinion letter and the media’s ethical responsibility is ignored by all is this protected by our Constitution also.
I am proud of my service to the United States of America. I am proud to have had the chance to protect and defend our Constitution. I am proud to (under the guide lines of this great document (the Constitution) to have had the chance to run for public office.
I thank the United States of America for allowing me to come back alive. I know Veterans returning from a conflict presents a hardship on you, So accept my apology.
Thank You American
