This has been a very exciting campaign! What a privilege and experience it has been meeting folks all over the district, talking about the things that are on their minds. I’ve been humbled and impressed at the hundreds of folks who have volunteered to tell their friends and family about me, encouraging them to consider me as their next Congressman. Thank you!

We all must continue to speak out on the issues – speak truth to our neighbors, demand honesty and integrity from our leaders, and be involved in our communities to make changes for the better, and fend off changes that will undermine our prosperity, safety, security, or morality. If you understand the fine points of an issue or amendment, please explain it to your neighbors and coworkers. We can’t all be experts at everything, so when you find something you are passionate about and you study up on it, share your knowledge with someone else and help them understand where you get your point of view.

For example, I’ve been so impressed with the many people who have taken the time to examine all of the points of the now famous “Amendment 2″ and are doing everything in their power to educate their neighbors on the dangerous, foolish and immoral aspects of this very problematic proposal. If you care about women, taxes, embryos, or free enterprise, please vote NO on Amendment 2. If you examine it closely, you will find many aspects of it that are exactly what we do not need in Missouri.

We’ve got just 2 days left to tell our friends and neighbors about the issues, proposals, and candidates to be considered on Tuesday, November 7th. We believe that each of us can, and does, make a difference.
