More background data
Together we can work on this campaign by bringing our ideas and emotions in perspective to achieve the goals we have in common.

I've already met many of the residents in the 41st district and I am looking forward to meeting many more. It is only through your dedication and commitment that I am able to step forward and take the responsibility of representing your highest standards of elected officials.

Which is why I have once again decided to run as the Democratic Party's Nominee for the 41st Congressional Dist, regardless if, Jerry Lewis Retires or not. Next year by gaining 18 % or more of the vote apposed to last year in 2006 we can make this happen in 2008.

As we close in on the November 2008 elections, it is crucial that everyone vote for me in the early primary to insure that i win the Democratic Nomination. I would be honored to represent the Citizens of the 41st Congressional District. I believe in a government "of the people, by the people and for the people". not of the Corporations that have only their personal self interest at hand,at the price of the many citizens which i will represent.

With your support, I will work diligently to improve the lives of our most precious assets:

Our children's future Our Families Our Seniors Our Brave Veterans - ensuring they are treated fairly with respect. These brave men and women who serve our country ensure the safety of our nation. Our nations Economy. Our Environment strict EPA standards AIR WATER EARTH.

My choice to run for Congress of the 41st Dist has been thought out very clearly, I believe in the American People's Dreams and aspirations, life liberty and the pursuit of happiness for all individuals regardless of creed or gender. I believe in bringing the American People choice to live a better life, today, and tomorrow for our children's future, we must hold choice Dearly and our right to Vote must be heard.

That is why as your voice in Congress, I will fight for improving Education, Federal Pell Grants, Perkins loans, a Universal Health care system that makes sense for all American citizens, the Union Right to Work Program and for the immediate protection of Social Security and Medicare benefits.

One life, One planet, Strive to make a difference.
