TOGETHER WE WILL RESTORE THE AMERICAN DREAM

Dear Friends,

I continue to believe in the American Dream, that's why I will be a candidate in the 2012 Iowa GOP Presidential Caucus. I will be traveling all over this nation, meeting many new friends while acquainting myself with past supporters. I had the joy with my wife of meeting over seven thousand Iowans at this year's Pork Tent at the Iowa State Fair. It was an honor for us to be invited to participate.

My feelings concerning our nation is one of optimism based on the fact that strong leadership can restore to all our people what they know to be true, America is the greatest nation on the face of this earth. I want you to look forward with me to a day when:

Our economy and private sector will create more than enough jobs for all our people and severe unemployment will become, a thing of the past,

Inflation will hardly be noticeable, deficits reduced and the government will no longer print money without backing,

Honesty, integrity, and the hopes of our people (not special interests) will become the primary concern of leaders in government, industry and business,

Young Americans will be able to pursue their dreams and find jobs which will enable them to purchase a home and meet their obligations; our seniors will be able to live their remaining years in dignity and our grandchildren will take pride in the country we have all helped to build,

A stronger America, respected around the world will be a beacon for peace and democracy, a friend whose word can be relied upon as a decent, honest and dependable partner. Our nation will help create a world that is stable, without fear of nuclear conflagration, due to our military strength,

Security for our families and grandchildren is attained, families knowing that crime will be punished and parole of violent offenders without punishment will be a thing of the past,

Children can walk the street to school and play in the park without fear of being victimized by crime in any form,

The growth of the individual and private sector is no longer constrained by unnecessary government regulations and excessive taxation,

We will at last, be a nation looking forward with pride, to an America made great by its people who respect the laws of our land which are built firmly upon the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.

God bless the United States of America
