Unapologetic, courageous and intrepid, Charles Sanders goes where few seeking office are willing to go -- straight at the heart of the matter -- the impeachment of George W. Bush and Dick Cheney!
Candidate Charles Sanders, running for the Democratic Party nomination for the U.S. House in the 3rd District of Ohio, understands the language of true change. No ambiguous statements, no pandering to political powers-that-be, but a true grassroots, working class civil servant that comprehends what is at stake in our country if we fail to ebb the flood of deceit that pours out of today's politicians in Washington D.C.!
Sanders says what needs to be vitriolically said, and leaves no room for apologies. In plainspoken, clear terms, Sanders defines the rules of engagement to the opposition that currently drives our country further into debt, deprives us of basic civil liberties, and plunged our nation into an immoral and baseless war.
Treading into deep, turbulent waters, Mr. Sanders has braved the rough seas -- that only anti-war champion Ned Lamont of Connecticut has taken on so far -- to save our country from drowning in false fear, apathy and a mistakenly euphemistic outlook.
Pulling no punches, Sanders slams the Bush Administration with tough body blows -- attacking their numerous failed policies and utter incompetence -- with heavyweight knockout-style! Appropriately, Sanders then counters with hard-hitting answers to a plethora of substantial issues that will restore confidence in our government and return much needed programs to protect our citizens, those most in need and the Constitution itself.
Courageous and intrepid, Charles Sanders goes where few seeking office are willing to go – straight at the heart of the matter -- the impeachment of George W. Bush and Dick Cheney! Unyielding, he then tackles the malignancies that eat away at our once great nation from the eradicating of political corruption, to health care for every American, to bringing the troops home from Iraq, to rolling back the massive trust-fund tax breaks shamelessly passed during the preceding five years. Throw in a hard-hitting battle for rescinding greedy eminent domain laws and keeping the Internet Neutrality rules in place and Sanders is every neoconservative's worst nightmare and every progressive's preeminent dream!
As suggested in the past, endorsement of candidates should be done one at a time and based on merit. Candidates should not receive blanket endorsements by-proxy the itinerary of the DCCC or the DSCC merely by claims of being Democratic. The candidate must demonstrate not only their grasp of the issues we face and the words to express them, but must reveal the actions they will undertake to accomplish the goals of a true progressive messenger of the people. I submit that Charles Sanders is the "real deal" and worthy of a vote on September 15 in Ohio's special primary election and again on November 7 in the general election!
Visit Charles Sanders' website with the link below, examine his solid strategies to repeal the abject horror we are currently facing with the Bush Administration and his crony-based, Republican Congress and consider donating to a candidate worthy of office and America's trust!

If there's one vital skill Democratic politicians have to learn, it's gut punch retorts. Standing around mute like cigar store wooden Indians riddled with termites, just doesn't cut it. Anyone too timid, dimwitted or inarticulate to refute the rabid right's blitzkrieg of absurd lies or childish accusations of "weak on terrorism," doesn't belong in politics.
Voters didn't elect them to be punching bags, we expect them to return punch for punch. If they can't manage that, then retire, resign or commit suicide.
