With three weeks to go before the election,
I announced my candidacy on Tuesday, October 18, 2005.
So far not a single Virginia newspaper has called. It looks like newspapers
are no longer the repository of the Free Press. This means that it is
up to you, THE VOTERS to educate your friends and family about my campaign
if you support my platform. This state race
ought to be national news. My campaign delivers traditional Virginian
ideals and substantial issues. "Truth has nothing to fear but concealment."
Spread the word. |

Dear
VIRGINIA VOTER , |
||||||||
| Welcome to my election website. I believe that our government has served the interests of the extremely wealthy and does not do enough to improve real conditions for poor and working people. I am a Socialist and I believe government at all levels should take a more direct role in providing necessities such as jobs, health care, housing, public transportation, education, child care, and utilities. I believe that people are more important than money. Please explore this site there is much information here from my two previous campaigns. You can read to learn more about my beliefs and my political views. My opponents shall neither say so much openly or represent views so contradictory to our current form of social and economic organization. Learn about the other candidates for running for Virginia Lt. Governor: |

| I humbly ask for your vote. I believe in the right of the people to determine their own fate through their use of the ballot box. The hope of democracy is that an educated electorate can overcome the corrupting influence of money. I hope that every Virginian can hear my message of change and votes on November 8. |

| I support legalizing marijuana and regulating its sell similar to tobacco. A $5 tax per pack will go toward financing a high-speed rail system that is free for all Virginians. On the eve of Virginia's 400th Anniversary. . . |
I think your home's assessed value should be locked-in at the price you pay for your home. No longer would citizens be penalized for staying in Virginia. Why should citizens have to pay escalating . . . |
I support equal rights for gay and lesbian couples. The recent debate over gay marriage strikes at the fundamental meaning of the First Ammendment. |
