Stop pushing for Clinton or Bush

To the editor:
The modern day media is pushing names and faces on their public. For 2016 it is Hillary and Bush, personally I don't want either of them as a leader of our nation. Out of three hundred and thirty some million there must be a few who have less baggage to overlook or unpack.
I want someone with the guts to move 'mountains” -- mountains of useless, intrusive rules, regulations and agencies. Someone who clings to our safety-net, the U.S. Constitution. One who disregards all politically correct speech and is straightforward with the American people and with our friends beyond the seas. Someone whose intentions for America's survival are as plain as ISIS is with their intention to conquer and subdue.
Let the next leader be a statesman of moral character who values things of real value. One who stands tall and promotes those old healthy traditions. One who insists that every person can believe and live as they choose but they will not be allowed to tear down the values of their neighbors. And, most of all, a leader who would give up power before letting this great nation exclude God from it's shores.
The media has a strong pull on low-information voters, if they are ever dominant this country will never proclaim as Reagan once did, 'It's morning again in America.”
