Self destruct and the Quality of candidates?

So, yesterday Herman Cain dropped out of the GOP running. Wow, What a surprise, huh. I personally think that there was so much more to this than what was all over the news media.
I do have a significant issue with him though. If he did have those relationships and other related things go on, why could he not just be honest about it? He would have earned alot of respect that way and maybe he would still be in the race. I firmly believe that even if things are not perfect and none of us are, that honesty is the best policy. That way your past doesn't came back on you later, DUH HERMAN!!

Some of you I am sure have had the chance to read the article written about me by City Weekly. I didn't go out of my way to whitewash things of to make it look like I was some sort of lilly white perfect choice for all people. I have my faults and issues just like everyone and I have used them to become a much better person. If those issues of my past put some people off, that is their choice. I won't have that sort of cheap backdoor journalism shoot me in the foot as I try to do this thing. I want everyone to see just what they are getting from the word go.

I just had this sort of thing happening in my personal life as well. Persons trying to make a judgement about me without having all the facts. I am pretty transparent and think that honesty is certainly the best policy. I try to be a good person the best I can and I really think that there are some significant changes I can personally make as far as the accountability of the Presidential office.

There really is no clear cut choice today for leadership, but honesty is a good place to start. Washington experience is something that Newt professes to have, Mitt says he is a good fit, and John, well, I haven't decided about him yet. Ron is even more out there than I and even though I agree with some things, I still think that we need to get away from career politicians and return to the sort of leadership from within as our founding fathers imagined initially.

I have had to put things on hold while I work out of town, but at every opportunity whild I am at home I will still try to gather the signatures I need to try to be a REAL PEOPLE'S representative.

I only want an opportunity to try to help this wonderful country and to try to restore some faith in the leadership. That can only be done through honesty, integrity and putting your back into it. If you can help me on this quest I will certainly give it my best effort without the silly red hats, blue hats sort of stupidness that we have now.

The numbers are in????

I just noticed that Iowa conducted a survey of voters to see whom they would support for the GOP nomination and it is still up in the air. It does look like Mitt and Michelle are duking it out for the eastern states and I do understand that I have a long way to go.
I did see a very important thing right at the end of the story. It states that most voters are still up in the air as to whom they might support for the Presidential election as the numbers are very early in the campaign. As Jeff Daniels character said in Dumb and Dumber, having a chance in a million, is "I still have a chance".
I am still gathering signatures and getting an article ready for SLUG Magazine. I should be having an article coming out soon in Salt Lake City Weekly.
Please check them out and give me any feedback you might have. I really do want to do the best I can for America and all Americans.

What was he thinking?

Heard about Mitt Romney making light of the unemployment situation in the country? How could you not? Sounds like his comments just reinforce my assertion and position that the elitist and entitled still think they are better than the rest of us in America.
He makes a joke about how "he is unemployed too".
Wow, guess that just goes to show how far out of touch the current batch of candidates really are with those of us that live that way everyday.
Keep me in your sights, I am gathering the signatures necessary to get on the ballot. We really need representation that truly understands how middle class America lives everyday. This is not a joke, no matter what the other candidates say.
Keep on trying, leadership is only a vote away.
