CAMPAIGN
FINANCE
REFORM?


Campaign finance reform
means public financing of
politicial campaigns.

A bad idea.

Read:
http://blog.timesunion.com/capitol/archives/187961/stepping-up-the-noise-level-on-cfr/

Want campaign reform?
Do not take the money.

This means candidates and
the media.

Voters pay attention. Cast
informed votes.

Candidates clearly state
why you are a candidate
and where  you stand on
vital issues.

Media provide fair/equal
coverage of candidates
regarding the above. Just
give the voters the facts
and information they require
to cast informed ballots.

Keep your opinions and
endorsements to yourselves.

Let the voters decide.

Give voters fair and full
coverage of candidates
and their issue positions
in their own words.

Candidates and the media
should keep campaigns short
and to the point.

Campaigns need not be
expensive if the above
reforms were voluntarily
adopted by candidates
the media...and the voters.

KEEP THE HARRIMAN
STATE OFFICE CAMPUS

What to do with the Harriman
SOC?

cuomo-unclear-if-harriman-will-be-a-tax-free-zone  (Albany TU)


The Harriman State Office Campus
should be retained as a center for
the state workforce.

Move as many state workers out of
downtown Albany to the Harriman
campus.

This will  reduce traffic volumes and
relieve traffic congestion
in downtown and on main residential
streets such as Western Ave, New
Scotland Ave, Whitehall Road.
South Manning Blvd, and Hackett
Blvd. improving neighborhood
residential integrity and quality
of life.

More residential development is
needed downtown, as well a  major
supermarket.

The State should continue to make
Pilot payments to the City of Albany.

POGO POLITICS

We have met the enemy and they
are - current federal/state/local
officeholders.

It is an irony that our own
elected officials pose a greater
and more immediate, threat to
the security of America
and all Americans, than al Qaida
and the Muslim Brotherhood.

Obamacare, core curriculums
failure to secure our national
borders and ports, and the rush
to grant amnesty to the tens
of millions of illegal aliens who
have invaded our land,  are among
the actions of our government
that are destroying America.

Exhbit A- Senate Bill 744
Schumer- McCain-Rubio, et al:

and

http://www.usnews.com/news/articles/2013/05/06/immigration-reform-could-cost-63-trillion-heritage-foundation-says


As we honor those who have
sacrificed their lives to preserve
our Nation, our Constitutional
Republic and the "life, liberty
and pursuit of happiness" of
each and every American, may
we resolve that those supreme
sacifices have not been in vain.

The 2013 local, and 2014 state
and congressional elections are
key to the survival of America
and all Americans.

Our futures depend on voters
casting informed votes in these
elections.

The media must realize that
a free and independent media
is essential to, their, and our
survival.

Without this, our Constitutional
Republic will not stand.

MEMORIAL DAY

We pause to remember our fallen
who gave their lives that we may
live free.

Remember them.

Resolve to honor their sacrifice
by voting out tyrannical politicians
who are trampling the Constitution
destroying our Constitutional Republic
and depriving us of Liberty.

THE DAN O'CONNELL
POCKET PARK. WHY
THE DELAY?

The 3/4 acre, former brownfield
at the corner of Whitehall and
New Scotland awaits completion
of the park.

The City and Amedore builders
should cooperate in bringing in
clean soil, creating a rolling berm
planting a variety of conifers
hardwoods and flowering bushes
a flagpole, some benches and
a stone/ plaque creating the
Dan O'Connell Memorial Pocket
Park.

A fitting tribute to Dan who lived
on Whitehall at Holmes Court.

SULLIVAN FOR MAYOR
NOVEMBER 5, 2013
GENERAL ELECTION

Joseph P Sullivan will be the
Conservative Party candidate
for Mayor of the City of Albany
in the November 5, 2013
General Election.

Read posts on this website
January to present, 2013.

Read selected posts on tabs that
appear at the right of the screen.

Search this website for topics
including  Education, Energy
Security/Emergency/Disaster
Preparedness, City of Albany
Politics, Sanctuary City and
Illegal Aliens- and any other
topic of interest to you.

Anything posted by Sullivan
on any the above, and related
topics, in the past 8 years, will
appear.

Let's do the two step.

SAVE OUR CONSTITUTIONAL
REPUBLIC

Sullivan is an ardent supporter
of America First, our Constitutional
Republic, The Constitution, in
particular, the Second Amendment.
Repeal the NY Safe Act before
the State Legislature leaves town
in June.

EDUCATION/CITY SCHOOLS

Sullivan advocates consolidation
of city schools with city government
with one property tax to finance
both. Return to a neighborhood K-8
school system, with more local
control over what is taught and how.

Put these and related education
questions on the November ballot
in the City of Albany.

                                .....................
The survival of America and all
Americans are on the line. Government
can't save us, We must save ourselves
and our Constitutional Republic.

Begin with the 2013 local elections.
In 2014 elect a Congress that puts
America First, before party politics.

Have a nice summer and look foreward
to a short Fall camapign that will offer
you the voters a very clear choice on
November 5.

Enjoy the rambles of spring:

Our future depends on you casting
informed ballots rather than the usual
partyline Lemming behavior of the
past.

LIFEBOAT AMERICA

America is a lifeboat adrift in a sea
of world poverty.

We can not  continue to allow
tens of millions of illegal aliens
most of whom are poor, uneducated
or ATM's bent on our destruction.
to invade our land and expect
that our lifeboat will remain afloat.

We have far too many of our own
native born poor and millions out of work.

The Center for Immigration estimates
that 40 percent of all immigrants to America
are on welfare.

Our current welfare rolls are not sustainable.

To add tens of millions more to the welfare
rolls is to court disaster.

The invader aliens are law breakers.

Amnesty to reward them only undermines
the rule of law.

The current "comprehensive immigration
reform bill "- all 844 pages- is a farce.

http://blog.heritage.org/2013/04/23/morning-bell-top-5-problems-with-the-comprehensive-immigration-bill/

Pass this bill and America will be on
the fast track to become a third world
nation.

The so called "bipartisan gang of eight"
are way off course. These gangbangers
are a far cry from the caliber of the
Founders of our great country.

Every Senator and Member of the House
must measure up to the Founders, if we
are to survive as a Nation.

This  "comprehensive immigration reform
bill" is as poorly drafted and conceived
as the so called "NY SAFE ACT" rammed
through the NYS Legislature by a Governor
gone mad.

Repeal the SAFE ACT and vote down
the "comprehensive immigration reform
bill".

In New York end sanctuary status for
illegal aliens. E verify all employees
voter and welfare rolls as well as school
and college students.

The survival of America and all Americans
are on the line.

Politicians at all levels are trashing the
Constitution.

Government can't save us, we must
save ourselves and our Constitutional
Republic!
