Your turn for truth
To the editor:
As many of you may or may not know that I am planning on running for Ft. Myers Beach Town Council.
I am running a campaign that is based around the people and the power of the peoples opinions, I would like to see the voice of the voiceless stand strong together with input, ideas and what you want your island to be for the future. Only you as residents can make a difference if you choose to be heard through a voice of one that happens to be voice of all. I, being the face of the faceless, am running to give you the chance to finally be seen with a clear vision. The point is that if you stand in idle then that is what you are: idle. If you move and speak out loud then you are heard and spoken for as a community that actually has the power to make actual “change” through movement -a movement of the people and by the people.
I will soon be holding public forums for all of you to be heard and seen as your spoken words are what I am running on, not my opinion; yet yours as a collective multitude of people who choose to no longer be known as the voiceless or faceless.
A real politician stands for the people and responds to the people, and that is what we are doing here, not what we have experienced for so long now as the opposite. The opposite has proven useless and full of selfish acts, to say greed though out public office has ruined our confidence in our elected officials, while we as the working poor have been “dumbed down” by mind control tactics that have us all to believe that all is fine and dandy.
The truth about “change” is that it starts from the ground level on up. A local level can make a dramatic difference within it’s own community by standing together with unity for trust. My message to you is just that: Trust! Trust in me to take your messages of hope and humanity into the council seat if elected, only you can get me elected by trusting not only me, yet yourself and your idea’s for a brighter future as well. An up-lift program is what we need for all to buy into, if you fall down then we as “1” are there to pick you back up. The people who need aid the most are the army of “1” and as an army of “1” we can accomplish just about anything through the freedom of the masses full of grand ideas and solutions to our own struggle. I truly believe in people, and I know in my heart that people want and need a better tomorrow for not only themselves, yet our youth as well. We all can agree that none of us want our kids to have to go through the hardships that we all have gone through. They deserve a better tomorrow, and we owe it to them to create a better tomorrow through dialogue and sound decision making as a brand new policy.
That brand new policy is: Everything for Everyone and Nothing for Themselves!!!
Without your assistance then we stay the same for another lifetime or several.
I plead with you to lend your voice and ideas to me so that I can have your voices heard.
The poor peoples campaign is to grab the attention of the well off and work with them, not against them.
Division will get us nowhere and separation leaves us all still in idle, if they choose not to work with us then we simply do it all without them, while teaching them a lesson that the bottom can and will rise to the top through the simple concept of sharing.
The local level campaign that I am about to dive into is all about all of you. I care way too much to not do something positive for all of us who also care. If you do not care then we shall make you care by creating “trust” again.
Please buy into the notion of One Human Family and let leaders arise from every corner of the nation that believe in our mission of regaining trust. The idea is to get young folks to run for office everywhere, as the youth are the ones who are really going to make the difference. I encourage all of you once again to voice your opinion to me so that I can take it to where it matters. Through communication we will only become better for ourselves and for our own communities.
For those of you who are Ft. Myers Beach residents, please sign the petition forms to
get me on the ballot.
For those of you not on FMB, then please get the youth involved in your towns to run for local office. We start at the bottom and before you know it, we are at the top level by way of being an army of “1.”
