Vote them all Out In 2010 and 2012!
There exists a huge disconnect between the American People and our Government. The American People have voted with their pocketbooks for more freedom of choice and the marketplace has responded. If you don’t believe me, just look at the number of channels on your television set. When I was a kid, I had 3 channels to choose from. Today, my favorite channels are are up in 4 digit territory.
Another example is how our world has become so specialized with information becoming more and more specific. Now with the internet, we have more choices than ever before and none of us want to go back to the days when our primary resource were encyclopedias that were published several years earlier. That cannot compare to being able to go online and get information as it happens.
Business has developed to meet our demand for instant products and services. Sadly our government has not. It still takes the post office a week to deliver my letter. Renewing my driver’s license or license plates is a slow, time consuming experience.
As we look at what is going on in state and federal government, we are witnessing politicians who are going in the exact opposite direction of the real world. They are voting for legislation that will limit our choices and our freedom. Obamacare is the perfect example. It is designed to provide a one size fits all solution to Healthcare. It will limit our choices and bring about rationing when what we want is choices and abundance. Cap and Trade “will necessarily cause costs to skyrocket”. Does that sound remotely like what happens in a free market economy?
I personally take responsibility for my part in what has happened in our government. I was asleep to my constitutional duties. Oh, I voted in every election, but it was usually for the lesser of two evils and then I would go back to trying to advance my career and take care of my family. Today I realize that I allowed this creeping collectivism and loss of personal freedom to sneak up on me, but I am awake now and want my freedom back.
The time has come to wake up and vote principles not party. No longer will I settle for the lesser of two evils. This election we have more candidates to choose from than ever before. The time has come to vote out those in office who have allowed this situation to get to this point.
Bob Cannon is the Constitution Party Candidate for the Ohio legislature representing District 98.
