This may seem like an important question to the
Republican establishment in Washington DC, but it remains a moot point with principled
voters. There is no point in replacing Mel Watt, unless we can replace his far-left
philosophy with true conservative values, the values that founded this nation and made it
great. Replacing Mel Watt with a conservative in name only would actually be more
destructive than reelecting him. Recent polling has confirmed that the combination of
the redrawn district, Mel Watt’s liberal voting record, and the Clinton
Administration’s demoralization of the Democratic Party will result in a victory for
whichever candidate wins the Republican nomination.
If we elect a representative that is a conservative in name only, we will only slow our
continual decay. We will remain bogged down on the peripheral issues, and not
counterattack on the fundamental issues. We will focus on de-funding the National
Endowment for the Arts, while ignoring the larger issue of the destructive federal
education establishment (September 3 Challenge). We
will salve our conscience by standing against partial birth abortion, while millions more
are sucked out of their mothers through a plastic tube (August
31 Challenge). We will fight a good fight for tax reform, but still send just as many
tax dollars to Washington (September 2 Challenge). We
will talk about our right to have a gun to hunt with or protect ourselves from crime, but
ignore the purpose of the Second Amendment (September 1
Challenge).
We must elect someone who will stand for the principles that were important enough for
us to separate ourselves from Britain, and fight a war over. Our representative must be
someone who lives the family values that are the fundamental building blocks of a strong
nation. We must have someone who served in our military to know the value of dedication to
country and the need for a strong defense. We must have someone who has been in the
business world and has felt the destructive power of government on free enterprise.
Therefore, the question is not who can beat Mel Watt, but with whom do we want to
replace him? Do we replace him with someone who is conservative in name only, or can we do
better? I have been the only candidate who had the fortitude and conviction to
challenge the other candidates and define the debate for this election. At the
same time, I have offered sound reasoning to you, the voter, on the issues, so you would
know exactly where I stand.
