Clovis brings solid values

In these days leading up to the Republican primary election, I am worried that voters are being unduly influenced by the supposed 'front runners” and the media outlets that are trumpeting their causes.

I am turned off by sappy TV ads about how Joni used to castrate pigs, shoots her handgun and rides her Harley. To compete, Mark Jacobs puts her down for 'shooting blanks” and lets us know what a clean cut family man he is. The only thing missing is references to motherhood, baseball and apple pie.

Sam Clovis is not slick or cute. He does not pander to one or the other demographic. He brings to the table a set of values most of us were raised with, a concern for honesty and integrity our parents tried to instill in us and a no-nonsense approach to government that keeps our country on sound footing militarily, fiscally and constitutionally. Conservatives need to unite behind the one candidate who champions their cause and believes in a limited government.

A vote for Clovis is a vote to put Iowa in its proper place, namely as a leader among its peers and a voice of reason amid the bluster and blather of those who appear to voters unable or unwilling to deal with the truth. Vet the candidates, do your homework and vote smart.
