Letter to the Editor
Support Jerry Brown

I voted for Ronald Reagan his first term. I believed him when his main platform was to make a balanced budget law. Not only did he outright lie about that -- but all that is true and dear to me, as nature and wildlife were raped and ravaged during his administration and continues today at a frantic pace.

Reagan and Bush have undone decades of thoughtful protective legiaslation in 12 short years.

Our current government is no longer acting responsibly nor accountably. It is out of control and has become its own enterprise.

America and its political process has veered dramatically from its intended course. Our responsibility is clear. With all of our energy we must redirect our government to reflect the laws of nature and freedom. To serve the many -- not the few.

Jerry Brown is our only vehicle. His visions, intelligence and dedication will reclaim the intended America.

It will create a common cause. One that united Americans can approach with purpose and honesty. An overall plan for our future betterment, so we can leave the world a better place.

Economics is a giant board game. Without truth and cause it is ruthless and self-defeating, with an overall plan for betterment and purpose, with safety, utility and control, our economic potential is unlimited. But it must be congruent with nature and freedom -- and not return to a blind industrial age.

The active pursuit of stated platforms and proof of a track record is a barometer of a sincerely honest presidential candidate. Jerry Brown acknowledges his mistakes --which are few -- and is on the right track. What he says is on-line and his message is clear: If we honor from where we came and those that came along with us we will define a path with pupose and respect and return to building the heritage of the only living planet.
