This is fantastic! Jake Towne, the liberty-minded Independent running for congress in PA-D15 has his article published RIGHT ALONGSIDE the other mainstream candidates!

http://www.mcall.com/opinion/

The 15th district can't afford the same old politicians running the show - they need a congressman who can think independently(pun intended), someone who has read the Constitution and will OBEY it.

Great article, it's nice to see candidates that have an understanding of Austrian Economics. So many people (candidates and citizens) get caught up in the results focused on special interests and don't consider what is happening to the economy as a whole. It's so ridiculous, I could be very successfull too if the gov took $1 from every citizen and gave it to me. Corporations don't spend millions on lobbying if they weren't able to see results. People need to realize it's at the expense of them!

What kind of chances do you think you have of winning? I made a little donation to your campaign. Sorry couldn't give more. Good Luck!

Its looking good

Thanks for your donation!! The campaign is going very well, the whole strategy is to appeal directly to the people.

While on paper I am sure a bit of a longshot currently, I am very well differentiated from both Establishment candidates and believe I have the potential to successfully draw 40%, which should be enough to win in a 3-way race. The success I've had as an independent candidate getting my views out there has never happened before where I live, and the more people I talk to, the more confident I get.

If I had $100K in the bank, I'd win because I am sure its enough money to outreach to each person in the district, but fundraising is tough for indy's although the two-party system has already failed. But I've recognized this and the war plans are for a low-budget guerilla campaign, which is going very well.

You will have a high return on your liberty dollar with my campaign, thank you.

Jake has a great chance to win

this just came from the Examiner
http://www.examiner.com/x-19977-Allentown-Fiscal-Responsibil...

Jake Towne attacked “the two-headed, one-party political system is ruining Main Street” and the stimulus bill, which “awarded over $7 million to local universities for research on topics like hot lava and Ice Age climate shifts.”

“Some projects may even have some utility, like new roads or bridges,” Towne said. “
He continued “However, what is typically NOT SEEN is local hardware stores failing -- the businesses that didn't make the government's gravy train list. What is NOT SEEN is firms that never start due to government interventions. What is NEVER SEEN is the employment these businesses would be providing and what is CERTAINLY NOT SEEN is what would happen if people were not plundered by government in the first place, either via payroll taxes or the insidious hidden tax of inflation.”

Towne warns “America's sails are set on a hazardous course.” His path is simple:
restore individual liberties.

restore the rule of law per the Constitution.

balance budgets
have low taxes

have a strong national defense while avoiding undeclared wars, military bases on foreign soil and nation-building missions.

separate the economy and state

Jake Towne - For the win!

It's good to see positive news coming out of the Commonwealth. Please do what you can do to support Jake.

Jake

Is there any possibility to get these two to debate you? I saw your post about your original attempt at scheduling a debate. I'm curious. Do you have any supporters on college campus' or that might host an event where a debate can take place? In my home town we are setting up a debate with all the candidates running in our district, inviting them all to show, calling the media to participate and cover it, and having it moderated by the Woman's League of Voters or at least some of its members locally. Is there any chance that you can get a legitimate debate started by people in your community and promote it like a big event? I think once you take the stage with these guys, it will become increasingly obvious to the constituents that you mean business. All people like us need is a chance to get in the limelight with the opposition.

The answer is yes

That first note was more or less a formality, or thrown gauntlet.
