I was referred to this site by a close personal friend. It appears that I along with many others have been the subject of many postings. Many questions arise to my qualifications to seek public office and that I am apparently way to young to be a Sheriff.
Unlike a few people who have already jumped into this race I want to do the right thing and abide by the law. This is not to delay or to give an excuse but rather to uphold a much stronger value of integrity. There are several laws that dictate when certain individuals seek a public office such as that of "Sheriff" that they must resign from their jobs in order to do so. I for one know what the law states, the reasons why these laws were created and I will abide by the law. I have strong morals and hold myself to a very high standard. I do not seek to split the vote, have not been paid by someone to enter this race but rather I feel lead to stand up for what is right and to do the right thing by giving the people a voice in the way their Constitutional Officers conduct the business of the people.
By no means am I to young to seek public office. I believe the misperception that comes of this assumption is brought on by the fear of change. Youth in politics breeds ambition, drive and a genuine desire to please the members of the public. I believe that qualifications for public office or for that fact any job position should be based upon character, skills & abilities, and most importantly life experiences. By judging ones life experiences you can determine what type of person you will be electing to a public office and more importantly what type of mold that office will take under such leadership.
Here is a question to ask yourself: When you are faced with a difficult decision to do what you believe is right or to go the other way because a few people attempt to sway you to do something; Will you do what you feel is right or make a decision that you know deep down is wrong simply because a few people tell you to do it? I for one WILL ALWAYS do what I feel and know is right thing to do. I stand upon principle and purpose. Some people are scared that results will be “diluted” because of candidates enter a race. I feel that they fear that some of us may have more to offer the people. I can clearly appreciate 3 people in a race where one person is evil all the way around, one seeks personal gain and the last person values integrity and puts the interest of all people ahead of his own. Unfortunately there will always be those who can never get enough and want to build a kingdom where they have the only say as to how an organization is run and never let the voice of the people and employees mold the way the organization operates.
"Watcher” rest assured that I am not trying to avert giving you the answers you seek about me but rather I am waiting to when the time is right and so that I will abide by the law. God may pull the ground out from under my feet tomorrow but today he is leading me forward. When the time is right I will know if it is his will that leads me into this race or not. Please do not bash my spiritual beliefs. I do not and will never force my personal beliefs on others. That is one thing that will definitely differ from me and some of the other candidates. Trust me, in a few months I will give you everything that you want to know about me. For now evaluate those who are out there, find out what positive attributes each of them have so that if and when I come out you can see what I have to offer that is different from all of the others.
