Put on your big boy and big girl pants

October 21, 2016

So much mainstream media attention is paid to the 2016 presidential race that we sometimes overlook the importance of our Delaware state elections. The Constitutional sovereignty of our great state depends on the significance of these upcoming elections. Nov. 8 offers a very promising slate of candidates and incumbents.

Hans Reigle for U. S. Congress has a very impressive résumé, and is a pilot and Air Force veteran. He is also a genuine, real nice person.

Sen. Colin Bonini for governor has the experience and has voted in the best interest of all Delawareans. Again, a very fine candidate. Delaware has several senate and house races, with opportunities to re-elect strong legislators, and elect several promising new public servants.

To paraphrase and echo what I hear many of these men and women say, "Delaware (and Washington, D.C.) is broken."

Have I given myself away yet? Many (most) Democrats are to blame for the spiritual, moral, social, patriotic and economic decay we see today. Republicans are not God, but we fear His wrath. This Nov. 8, vote!

Put on your big boy and big girl pants, and vote to turn this great state, and great nation around. And yes, vote Trump. Prevent Mrs. Clinton from completely destroying our Republic. Think! Mr. Trump has done none of the evil, unpatriotic, unAmerican things that Mrs. Clinton has done.
