From: (removed) Date: Sat, 19 Dec 2009 05:47:38 -0800 (PST) To: Subject: Endorsement for Rob I am endorsing Rob Curnock because I believe he best represents what the Founding Fathers had in mind when they built the Constitution which embodies government "...Of the People, By the People, and For the People..." Any good student of history knows the Founding Fathers anticipated that citizens of respect, integrity, and proven success would rise from their communities, serve for a time in Congress to better the lives of their countrymen, and RETURN TO THE COMMUNITY. Rob has been a successful businessman in Waco for many years, and his actions in the community reflect his views of a square deal for all and the protection of liberty, secured by our Constitution, that allow every person or business entity to strive in a fair competitive environment to make their dreams come true. The Colonists feared the Constitution draft of 1787 because they feared it would lead to politicians who moved to Washington and never returned, often forgetting the interests of those who labored to send them there. I believe that is a 222-year-old indictment of Chet Edwards. He has not held a "profit and loss" job in Central Texas for a very, very long time. 2010 is the year to send him home at last to make an honest living among the rest of us. Return the 17th Congressional District to the People. Elect Rob in November 2010. -- Mitch DeLaRosa, Waco
