My Letter to the Editor of The Huntsville Times Endorsing Parker Griffith

I am writing to reinforce popular support for the Democratic candidate for the 5th Congressional Seat, Parker Griffith. Parker Griffith is not a candidate who represents the partisan politics of many members of both the Democratic and Republican Parties. He wants to lower the cost of health care, and his first-hand experience as a oncologist gives him the knowledge to attain both low-cost and efficient health care for all of us. Parker Griffith will carry on the legacy of our esteemed Senator, Bud Cramer.

Parker Griffith believes the nation needs drastic changes in education. I dropped out of high school to skip my senior year and attend the University of Alabama through a obscure early admission option, because the Huntsville City School System was wasting precious years of my life. Idiotic bureaucracy and failure to meet their own goals, much less ideal ones, characterizes the Huntsville City School System. And Parker Griffith understands that: "We cannot continue to be competitive in a global economy if we continue to have a second rate education system."

This is a time for change! And Parker Griffith, though not a radical, represents a path toward viable changes and ideal solutions for our nation's, and our state's, problems. Parker Griffith, has gained the support of myself and many of my like-minded peers. I hope that many more will join his cause; and, though he may not be perfect, he is the best choice in the upcoming election compared to the same old brand of ignorance and oppression of the 21st Century Republican Party. Parker is an advocate of further reliance on imported fossil fuels. And he believes that the education of our children should be left to often incompetent state and local governments.

Parker Griffith is the best, and only, choice for the upcoming election.
