Ron Paul can restore what makes America great



Over the years, we have watched as establishment politicians from both parties run our country into the ground. The debt has piled up, our liberties have been taken away, and the Constitution ignored. It is time to return to the principles of our founding fathers, it is time for Ron Paul.

As an OB/GYN, Dr. Paul has delivered more than 4,000 babies, and is a champion of life. During the Cuban Missile Crisis, he served as a captain in the Air Force, and is the only candidate with military experience. In fact, he has received more donations from active duty military personnel than every other candidate combined, times two. As a congressman, he has never voted to raise your taxes, never voted for an unbalanced budget, and takes his oath of office to obey the Constitution seriously. On economics, he is without equal.

In 2008 he was the only candidate who sounded the warning about the current financial crisis. His plan to restore America balances the budget in three years, cuts a trillion dollars year one, while still keeping our promises to our veterans and seniors.

We need bold leadership like this in the White House. On May 8 please vote Ron Paul for president, and let’s restore what has made our country great.

— Benjamin Rogers

  • 2008 robbery victims speak out

    We would like to contribute some information concerning the front page article published on Saturday, May 18, in The Goshen News.

  • Remember the amnesty law of ’86?

    The “Gang of Eight” U.S. Senate members have drafted an immigration bill that’s worse then the amnesty bill signed into law by Ronald Reagan in 1986. S. 744 gives those here illegally instant Registered Provisional Immigrant status, which means they are free from being deported if they register for amnesty.

  • Don’t ignore signs of someone contemplating suicide

    Everyone has issues that they have to deal with in their lives. It’s when we become overwhelmed and our issues become so drastic that they are unbearable that the results can be catastrophic. Suicide is a desperate attempt to escape suffering that has become unbearable.

  • Goshen should stick with ‘Redskins’

    I must respond to the letter to the editor from Mr. Ron Chupp (The Goshen News, May 9). What’s in a name, Mr. Chupp? I too have a Native American heritage, and for some reason, I am not offended by the term Redskins, or brown skins or any other color of skins.

  • More important issues than a nickname

    I would like to, in the most respectful way possible, respond to Mr. Chupp’s letter (The Goshen News, May 9) regarding the ongoing debate over the term “Redskins” being used as the nickname and mascot for the Goshen school system.

  • There is hope through God

    May I share what happened to me after praying about the issue of whether to have guns carried by school authorities at Goshen High School. While calling out to God, my question was: Why have we as a nation come to trusting in government agencies, such as Homeland Security, rather than obeying the Constitution in what you have declared through our forefathers?

Poll

The U.S. Census Bureau reported last week that Goshen’s population increased to 32,064 in 2012. It’s the first time the city has eclipsed 32,000 residents. Do you think population growth is good for the city?

Yes, having more people increases the tax base and strengthens the community
No, continual growth has made for overcrowding in schools and overwhelmed infrastructure.
