| A Statement About My Candidacy |
[Thursday, June 25, 2009]
Here in Michigan and the rest of our great nation, we have recently experienced dramatic changes in the social, economic, and political landscapes. It is of both the direction and circumstance of the changes that I bring myself to the citizens of South-Central Michigan. After a heartfelt self-examination in which I reviewed my principals, strengths and faults, I decided to forward myself as a candidate for the U.S. Congressional seat in Michigan's seventh district.
I embrace a conservative approach to both government and my life. As my platform and values are presented, a pattern reflecting my social, economic, and political conservatism will become evident.
Not being a wealthy man in terms of money, I count my wealth by my spiritual faith, loved ones, convictions, principles, and determination. I am not infallible, but I do strive for excellence in the execution of my duties.
I believe that our federal constitution has proven to be the greatest individual governing document in terms of freedoms and boundaries it establishes for its citizens.
There is a great danger in the concentrated power of a political office, whether federal, state, or local jurisdiction. I've spent much time considering this premise behind this. Power can be addictive and without personal restraint, the power of a political office can become destructive for the very people who generate the power for the office holder. I hope that my understanding of this would give a sense of security for citizens of Michigan's Seventh district with my potential to make decisions affecting their lives.
