<DIV>Good point, Shirley. I’ve already written my diatribe, so I won’t
continue here, except to say “good for you.” I hope when people go to the
polls on Tuesday they remember the two candidates who can’t be trusted to keep
their commitments and vote for Shirley Ringo and Dan Schmidt.</DIV>

Isaac Young failed to show up for the KRFP call-in show with me, I worried that
something might be wrong.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>He had
participated in all of the other forums.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">
</SPAN>Then I learned he deliberately decided not to attend, even though he had
promised to be there.</FONT></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt" class=MsoNormal><FONT size=3 face=Calibri>When I
make the commitment to run for office, I consider it my job to be accessible to
all potential voters.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>They should
have the opportunity to question me on all relevant topics so they have
information for voting.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Being
awarded a vote is an honor and a responsibility.</FONT></P>

campaign.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>From one forum to
another, the audiences vary in terms of their political leanings.<SPAN

where I knew the majority of those in attendance would not agree with my
views.</FONT></P>

elected, we should serve all of these individuals to the best of our
ability.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>To refuse to give them
access prior to the election is unconscionable.<SPAN

agree with you are unimportant.</FONT></P>
