President Barack Obama won’t explicitly say that Donald Trump is on the wrong side of history, but surely he believes it.

We experimented with socialism and crony capitalism during the last 16 years and the results were not pretty. The globalist elite became wealthier and the average citizen became poorer. It is time to take our nation back! I pray, with God’s help we will move toward the country we used to be with opportunity for all. Through history all democracies have failed because the citizens discover they can vote themselves benefits. We in the USA have been in decline and we must reform our government. The professional politicians must go! The road to recovery will be difficult but doable with good leadership. We must come together and be prepared to sacrifice for the benefit of our country.

I would like to thank all of you in the community who took time to vote last week. I would also like to thank those of you who prayed for our country and asked God to bring us back to a constitutional government which is based on biblical principles. I praise Him for saving us from leadership which glorifies and advances what He hates and for trying to destroy what He loves. There are so many I will never be able to thank in person, but for whom I am so very grateful. As representatives of that group, I would like to mention a few very briefly in the public forum:

Now hear this!  The government wants our military to pay back enlistment bonuses it offered for serving in Iraq and Afghanistan, some executed in California in 2005, 2006, and 2010. How disgusting! In some cases the amounts are $15,000.  I don’t know the whole story.

Where are all the Environmentalists when you need them? They must have their heads buried in the sand on our beautiful Navarre Beach!

Thomas Jefferson was quoted saying,”If we are to guard against ignorance and remain free, it is the responsibility of every American to be informed.”  Is this basic truth being ignored by our citizens and will we remain free? Are the Republican principals of a representative democracy being taught in our schools? Based on the responses given by the man on the street, our citizens do not understand our founding principles that made the United States of America one of the greatest countries in the world. Are we truly informed about the choices we will make in the upcoming election? Our freedom may be at risk.

Robbi Williamson has upset at least three community groups serving the Navarre Beach area. At least two of the groups he expressed  deep concerns’ over their $1000 allotments and wants more transparency. But Robbi gave the Mudders event $80,000 of taxpayers  money to come to Santa Rosa County but three neighboring states didn’t give a penny of taxpayers money to the Mudders event  held in their states. What was Robbi thinking?  I’ve asked Robbi but he won’t answer me. Now Robbi  is trying to evict GiGi our blind turtle from our turtle center by adding “termination at will language” in the new lease. I think “termination at will” should apply to our commissioners, especially one.

I just heard Donald Trump’s sincere apology for his decade old offensive video. He probably said what some presidents committed!

Election Day Nov. 8 is fast approaching when we can exercise our honor, privilege and duty. I can’t wait!

During WW II around the time the silver (zinc) penny came into use (1943), the copper and other vital metals were used in manufacturing war materials.
