FRANK GONZALEZ: a courageous example of what made our country great before "interest & corporate groups" high jacked our Representative Democracy
Unexpected TEARS watching FRANK GONZALEZ's Congressional campaign VIDEO
The last thing I expected when I started to watch this video was that it would evoke such emotions in me.
If I were to try to find the source of my reaction it was probably witnessing a courageous example of what made our country great before "interest & corporate groups" high jacked our Representative Democracy.
It is candidacies, such as the one Frank represents, which brings me and others hope for a future in which we can change the course of our nation.
In the same token, we are as fortunate to have 2 other Democratic congressional candidates who mirror the same struggle and efforts trying to get a message of genuine traditional civic values to South Florida voters... without the stings of powerful groups.
If someone where to make a video of their campaign efforts, they would surely demonstrate the same quality as those of Frank's.
They are:

Hey, activists and voters!
PLEASE FORWARD THIS MESSAGE AFTER YOU READ IT.
We sent out this video last night at 5:40pm. Just 17 hours later, we have over 300 clicks on it! This doesn't even include the many new names to whom I have copied it this second time around now that I see how much interest there has been for it!
People are sick and tired of the same crap from leaders of both parties, and we're spearheading the effort to define ourselves in District 21 according to our local vision.
This video is a compilation of great moments throughout our campaign at about 20 honk & wave events when our volunteers distributed 20,000--that's twenty thousand---4"x6" palm cards containing our campaign's name, issues and contact information at strategic locations within District 21.
We've already uploaded this video to our campaign website on the very first page ( http://www.electfrank.org ), right below the hilarious Jon Stewart clip where Stewart lampoons Lincoln. If you haven't seen THAT clip, make sure you visit the website!

Activists, voters,
Don't say I haven't been warning about this extensively since back in 2000 when I was just a "conspiracy theorist" libertarian.
We are the frogs and this is the simmering temperature rising.
Yes, it IS happening here in Amerika.
Every year that passes, fewer principled nuts willing to run for office, like me, remain. All you'll have left are the whore leaders of the big two political parties--Hillary, the Bush Dynasty, Kerry, DeLay, Pelosi, McCain, Gore, etc.--all willing to say whatever's necessary to win, including shredding the Constitution that is designed precisely to force them to limit their authority! But you'll still wonder why things only get worse because you think YOUR exceptions to the Constitution are acceptable!
There's a time to fight, like in my race, but there's also a time to retreat to survive to fight another day, exactly as the exiled Albert Einstein, a German Jew, explained when Hitler took power.
This is why I have been worrying and thinking about leaving this "free" country if I can't win this election or come close--my way of defending freedom--to put us back on track.
The first people eliminated in the beginning of tyranny are those who stand in diametric philosophical opposition to the existing regime. After that, the remaining sheep are easy to abuse at will. The government will divide and conquer according to many subgroups--subversive internet bloggers, pot smokers, "deadbeat" dads, tax "evaders", non-compliant small business owners, etc.--all in a phony pursuit of "security".
If YOU are one of those people who, out of convenient comfort or cowardice, agrees but says nothing, you are as guilty as those who carry out the orders.
Like Orwell said of the word games government and its apologists play, "Slavery is freedom".
Words cannot express adequately the importance of turning out to vote against the neoconservative disease in the demonic Republican Party leadership.
I have never wanted to be so wrong in my life.

"I hold it that a little rebellion now and then is a good thing, and as necessary in the political world as storms in the physical."
"I contemplate with sovereign reverence that act of the whole American people which declared that their legislature should make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof, thus building a wall of separation between church and state."
