Additional comment from candidate:
If we mistrust congress and give them only a 15% approval rating why do we keep electing them by a 85% rate. If we want things to change in congress we have to elect new independent people. I have the skills, experience and the will to lead, challenge, move in new directions. I do not raise funds or spend funds from any special interest. What would congress be like without any influence from special interest money? Find out by electing me. I am not into retail politics. I do not do circus politics. I do not eat hot dogs or kiss babies for photo ops. I do not tell lies to different people on issues. My information, my resume, my stand on a wide variety of issues is on my website www.newindependentpartyiowa.info Check me out. Vote for me if you like what you see. I will only represent the people of Iowa. They are my special interest.
