We can repair the damage
Massive voter turnout needed in November to replace those in power
- Guest Column By John Land Friday, August 3, 2012
Pennsylvania Representative Mike Kelly received a rare standing ovation on the floor of Congress for telling government to get their boot off the neck of the small businessman. He was impassioned, he spoke from his heart and without fear. The reaction to his speech underscores how desperate we are (even in Congress) for leadership. We crave true leaders, ones with plans that actually work. We want leaders who inspire others. We want wise and moral leaders. And we need them like never before. That is why we get excited about a guy like Mike Kelly. He gets it. And he isn’t afraid to speak up.
I believe the American people will rally to make the sacrifices needed and support the tough decisions once they are being lead by representatives who also understand the pain of the people and who respect their constituents.
The divide is wide and the problems deep but with a reset of our direction and a team effort between the leaders and the people, we can repair the damage. That won’t happen without a massive voter turnout that replaces many of those in power.
