Vote for a candidate who embodies integrity

(RE: “Feingold makes me proud to be an American”, Ripon Commonwealth Press, August 19, 2010)

I really like what Ruth Jones said.  I feel that integrity, fiscal responsibility, and the ability and willingness to truly listen to the citizens they have been hired to represent are just a few of the things which we should be demanding from our elected officials.

I, also, am proud to support a candidate who embodies everything which I feel is vital to our great nation – qualities like Truth, Honesty, and Compassion, for starters.  Jay Selthofner, Independent candidate for State Assembly, is a hard-working, intelligent young man with an innovative plan to get Wisconsin’s economy growing, while having compassion for patients and other citizens.  He has been traveling the state talking about hemp and cannabis with our elected officials, as well as educating the public, for almost a year now.  He knows what he is talking about.

I admire Jay for doing his civic duty and running for office so that he can personally try to change some un-just laws, while at the same time putting our farmers and many others in related industries back to work.  He’s not afraid to stand up and speak about important issues, and I have no doubt that he will listen to the people and use his voice to speak for them as well, if you will give him the chance to.

For these reasons and more, Jay makes me proud to be an American, and I am proud to support and work towards his election on Nov. 2nd.
