I'm Mad as Hell! Are You?

The definition of insanity is to continue to do the same things and expect different results. I am not a professional politician, a slick talking lawyer or a millionaire who wants to buy your vote. I am an average citizen, a business owner and I'm mad as hell at how the people we have elected to "serve" us have gone to Congress and are now serving themselves and the special interest groups. If you want a different kind of Senator in Congress, then I'm your man.

PLEASE HELP ME GET ON THE BALLOT.

I need your help to gather 112,446 signatures of registered Florida voters so I can get my name on the ballot. Please complete this interactive petition and ask your friends and family to help. Please mail them to P.O. Box 3336, Ocala, FL 34478. How hard is that to do?
