Let's get a free-thinking Conservative like Michael into the House. As I've written in my book, The Divided Era, our Constitution wasn't just written for times like these, but also IN times like these. It will take common sense and the charisma of someone like Michael to move Congress forward.

Michael Patrick Oristian has my full endorsement in his bid for the 53rd Congressional Seat. While he did not serve in our armed forces after growing up at West Point, he is the kind of fighter we need in the fight against socialism in this Country. Domestically, it is a war of words; he can articulate the conservative case, lest we lose the freedoms which our brave military has fought so hard to protect.
