Introduction!

One doesn't have to consider himself or herself exceptional, extraordinary or gifted to make a difference; but I do believe I can make a difference if elected to Congress. From my prospective I see a Federal Government overwhelmed by trivial pursuits. A government unable to accomplish anything of significance because of complacency, "Stupidity" and self-serving interests!

The two most obvious deficiencies we face, as a country, are a transportation system in chaos and an Interstate Highway System that is congested and antiquated. Another glaring deficiency we should all be worried about, but aren't, is oil consumption, because oil consumption is costing us an arm-and-a-leg. Regrettably, no one wants to address this problem, or a host of other problems because their 'too sensitive!' How's that for 'a crock!' Their too sensitive! And the list goes on and on!

Now! As to what I'd like to do, where I'd like to go if I were elected to Congress; I for one believe I can use my position in Congress as a bully-pulpit to address and illuminate the many area's where we have glaring deficiencies, problems that cry-out for reform, change or complete abandonment. By my speaking-out, and demanding change, in Congress, Congress will at least know where 'we' have problems. The Congress of the United States will know what we needs to do, right now, and how I would solve some of the problems at hand.

Hopefully, others will consider what I have to say and that they will either support my position or demand my removal from Congress; either way the problems facing this great country will be addressed and we will be working in 'your' best interest, the Citizens of these United States!

Respectfully,

John Hogan
