Dear Officeholder,
As a citizen I wish to thank you for your willingness to step forward and serve in public office. It must be challenging to voluntarily place oneself under intense scrutiny in order to run for political office. I do take your role as a leader very seriously, so please bear with me as I share with you some of my concerns and criticisms.

Anyone with even the slightest interest in politics knows that this is one of the most contentious times in recent history. The fighting and bickering about where to cut in federal, state and local budgets has both conservatives and liberals alike fighting like cats on a hot tin roof. Unions and Tea Party advocates are just the latest example of fighting for turf to maintain the status quo or return a wee-bit more control of taxpayers money back to the taxpayer.

"History is written by the Victors" so said Winston Churchill. So too says Mark Potok, revisionist for the Southern Poverty Law Center in Montgomery Alabama. Potok is no stranger to those who are consistently trying to keep history dishonest. If you want "both" sides of history, which is hardly ever taught, you have to seek out documentation which hasn't been "revised" to such an extent that it truly becomes a one sided expose. Potok's claim to fame is "class warfare" in my opinion. He loves to tell the half of history that stirs raw emotions in most readers who believe everything they were taught in public school approved history books. These books are “politically correct” and are like those “half-truth” emails that are forwarded to all us and continue to get forwarded by so many who don't take the extra time to find out the "rest of the story."

I know to be true the words of Alexis de Tocqueville; "All those who seek to destroy the liberties of a democratic nation ought to know that war is the surest and shortest means to accomplish it."

Are you kidding me. Of course I'm for it. Why? Well for one thing it was paramount in establishing "limited" government so that we could enjoy what so eloquently was stated in the Declaration of Independence. "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.
