Mike- Yep, I am. Or at least trying to get on the ballot so I can run. Thanks for the support. If you do find anyone in North County or even Temecula, send 'em my way. Thanks again.

Windspike- Indeed! Or they'd vote the hand-out into conference and let it turn to dust.

Thanks for the rooting.

Shea- I'm hoping for the first option too.

Average Patriot- Thanks for the insightful words and moral support. Send your voting friends my way if you know any in the area.

Jessada- Perhaps you missed something....

Common Sense: According to Thomas Jefferson who I researched heavily for my fist book, common sense is derived from being common man. A common citizen! The sense if any, displayed by most politicians is not common sense but sense gained from their status in society.
Jefferson felt that once a person became a member of society they would gain common sense and do the right thing for society not themselves.
That as you know is no longer true today. People especially politicians, do what is right for them. The country, society, the truth, is never even thought of.
We need to get back to Thomas Jeffersons idea of society. The knowledge that once in society you would do the right thing for the majority. You would do the right thing for the sake of doing the right thing.we must get back to helping those in the country thaty need it. Not those that do not but want it.
If I have been describing you and I lived in your area and State, you would have my vote. You do have my support for what it is worth. I wish you all the luck in the world.

Hey, you’ve got two great supporters in Mike V. and Windspike! Two guys whose opinions I respect and whose blogs are both packed with common sense, too.

Either common sense will eventually win out, or we will annihilate ourselves and the next dominant species to evolve will have to give it a go. I’m kinda hoping for the first option.

If they were handing out common sense - free of charge and at no expense to taxpayers - at a gathering of existing congressional folk (regardless of political stripe), no doubt many would mistakenly not show under the false assumption that they already had some.

I’m rooting for you Ken - Congress needs a big heaping helping of common sense, and you’re just the man to bring it to them in spades.

Blog on brother. Blog on all.

Ken, I didn't know you were running for congress.

I live in the city of San Diego (so not your district) but I will support and promote your campaign, of course!

I am already actively looking for people that live in Oceanside to send them info about you.

I have linked to your campaign site on my blog.

Peace.
