The organization that our founding fathers created to be governed by the people is now governing itself. Many feel that with multi-million dollar ad campaigns, electronic voting and elections scams our votes no longer count. But there is still hope. A great man once said, “We must be the change we wish to see.” If we want change on a national level we must first change on a local level. Once we, the people, use our power to elect a sincere and visionary leader on the county level it must follow that this trend will spread. If you’re interested in helping a grass roots movement that has no limits you should consider contributing your time and energy to the campaign of Steve Richkind. He’s running for house district 52 which includes Hood River, Sandy, Corbett and part of Multnomah County. If you don’t live in one of these areas, don’t worry. Our message is contagious and it will soon spread. Peace is possible. The time is now. Visit www.richkind52.com or write richkind52volunteers@gmail.com
