Primary Election.....There Is Still Hope!

Primary Election Day...May 18th...could be a wonderful beginning or the beginning of the end for those of us living here in Pennsylvania. I start here to familiarize you with the "primary election" process that almost universally places "big machine" and "party backed politicians" in front of voters and tells them these are their menu choices. The "main line media" jumps on these "party selections", also endorses them, and buries mention of those considered "also rans" under a mountain of coverage for the "chosen one's" wonderful accomplishments. And of course, being the political followers (sheep) that we have all become, we assume that our party and our main-line media organizations have wisely chosen the right candidate for us and we go skipping to the polls to vote for them.

Now this seems nice and orderly and keeps the voting process simple and uncomplicated and does not allow for too much clutter in the minds of the mere voters. The problem is that we do not, and never will, see what goes on behind the scenes to bring a candidate to party endorsement. The deals that get made to get support from economically, socially and politically powerful special interest groups virtually guarantees "quid pro quo" behavior on the candidates part if elected. Then, when the hand-picked chosen one's and their hand-picked government organizations ultimately have to pay the piper we get the chance to start complaining yet again. Phrases like "just another politics as usual", "they are not representing my views at all", "we have to vote these people out come next election", then the confidence we should have that those who govern are doing the right thing by us and for us erodes just a little bit more.

I need to speak to you about a candidate in the race for Governor of Pennsylvania. The first thing you need to know is his name. SAM ROHRER, REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE! Time is short for Sam and for all of us because he did not become the endorsed candidate by the State Republican Organization. He has had very little coverage by the main-line media and has been running a purely "grassroots" campaign. Please go to SamRohrer.org to find out all you can about Sam. I will tell you this much. Sam is honest! He has never taken a dollar from any special interest group. If Sam wins this primary it will be on his own money and the support of those who believe in him. So therefore, there will be no paybacks when he takes his oath of office and he will truly be working for "We The People".

Sam Rohrer is fiscally and socially conservative. Here are just a few of the things that Sam is passionate about:

. Provide PA with a fiscally responsible government
. End and Replace School Property Tax
. Expand School Choice
. Cut Taxes for Job Creators
. Defend Private Property Rights
. End Compulsory Union Membership
. Reduce Taxes and Regulations for Job Creators
.100% Pro-Life
. 100% 2nd Amendment Rights

Please, please get out and vote on May 18th. There is still hope! A vote for Sam Rohrer is a vote for our future!
