Supporting the Most Qualified Candidate

Where a candidate lives is not as important as what the candidate believes.

If you had cancer and were on your death bed, would you want to be treated by an  intern that lived in your neighborhood or would you rather have a physician that was imminently more qualified that lived 50 or 60 miles away?

The idea that we should vote for a less qualified candidate because they live in the District and reject a more qualified candidate that because they live outside of the District is absurd.

We the people have elected a President that can't even prove that he was born in our Country and we people in our community that think that a person's place of residence is more important than their knowledge and commitment to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution.

On election day, you can vote for the most qualified candidate that lives outsideof te District or you can vote for an intern that lives in the District. What ever you do, don't even consider voting for the incumbent Ken Calvert. He is one of the 435 reasons why our government is so incompetent. He has voted in favor of the NDAA which is clearly unconstitutional. He continues to vote for increasing the size and the authority of Congress and the President to usurp power that was never delegated to Congress in the Constitution.
