First question: Who is the current President of the United States?
“…Republican Candidate for Missouri’s 4th Congressional District…”
That narrows it down. A lot.
Mark Alford. One of those television guys.
We stand at a critical juncture of the history of the United States of America, a distinct division of paths, and steep precipice of danger. The choices and decisions we soon make as a nation will determine which path we go down and whether we fall to our collective destruction or maintain the integrity and strength of our Union.
435 men and women are the voices of the people who comprise this great land. Each congressional district, represented by a fellow citizen of their state, duly elected to be a voice in Washington D.C. for the people. Each district is due the strongest voice they can elect who represents their will and their beliefs.
I am that strongest voice for the 4th Congressional District of the State of Missouri.
My voice has informed, influenced, and inspired millions of people during my tenure as a television news anchor. My voice has been on live TV for more than 23,000 hours. My voice has helped raise millions of dollars for charities both locally and nationally. My voice has served boards, foundations, churches, civic organizations, families, and strangers.
My voice has been just that, “My” voice. Now I want to be YOUR voice, representing your values and your beliefs, I want to represent YOU as the next Congressman for the 4th District of Missouri.
“We stand at a critical juncture of the history of the United States of America, a distinct division of paths, and steep precipice of danger…”
There was a mob in Washington, D.C. on January 6, 2021 which breached the Capitol and smeared feces on the walls, among other acts of sedition.
“…The choices and decisions we soon make as a nation will determine which path we go down and whether we fall to our collective destruction or maintain the integrity and strength of our Union…”
Too late. The nations’s wealth has already been redistributed to the top one percent.
“…435 men and women are the voices of the people who comprise this great land. Each congressional district, represented by a fellow citizen of their state, duly elected to be a voice in Washington D.C. for the people. Each district is due the strongest voice they can elect who represents their will and their beliefs…”
That’s all well and good. This reads like it was taken from one of your fifth grade government essays cribbed together after you’d slept through a week of class.
“…I am that strongest voice for the 4th Congressional District of the State of Missouri…”
That’s debatable, especially without unlimited campaign funds.
“…My voice has informed, influenced, and inspired millions of people during my tenure as a television news anchor. My voice has been on live TV for more than 23,000 hours…”
“…My voice has helped raise millions of dollars for charities both locally and nationally. My voice has served boards, foundations, churches, civic organizations, families, and strangers…”
And on the 23,001st hour, he rested.
Second question: Do you currently live in the 4th Congressional District?
Stand up and help us take back America!
Yeah, that’s actually on the campaign web site.
Alford’s campaign web site contains not a single policy position, good, bad, or (since’s MO GOP) crazy. Apparently we’re supposed to vote for him because he’s LOUD or something.
I don’t need people with a war mentality representing me in this day and age. We need more mature approaches that work to bring us together–not further push us apart.
Since my next Representative will continue to be a Republican the best I can hope for will be a Republican who is middle of the road and will at least listen to those who have different ideas and not just be a cheerleader for those in the amen corner.
