We are occasionally asked, why should American citizens elect endorsed Combat Veteran For Congress. Combat Veterans know the vital importance of discipline, understands what teamwork can accomplish, understand the unshakable importance of loyalty, have demonstrated perseverance in the face of extreme adversity, have accomplished difficult missions in the face of armed opposition, and have repeatedly demonstrated their support for the defense of the Republic, like very few Americans have ever been called upon to do. If you click on the below listed link, you will be able to watch a video about US Marines in combat----the message one takes away from that video is that military personnel are hardened on the battlefield in combat---all military personnel who served in the defense of the Republic over the last 238 years have been tested in the cauldron of combat under fire in similar ways.

Combat tested, and fiscally conservative Combat Veterans have stood shoulder to shoulder with men in their units, in order to protect them, and in the face of enemy attacks. They didn’t ask anything of their comrades-in-arms that they weren’t willing to do themselves. Courageous Combat Veterans, have exhibited effective leadership under extreme stressful situations, their word could always be trusted when it meant, at times, the difference between life or death------that trust by others in combat, in the veracity of their fellow combatant’s word, is absent in many of the elected and irresponsible members of Congress. Unfortunately the saying that a man’s “word is his bond” is absent at the highest levels of the federal government bureaucracy, was absent in the leadership of the US State Department during the Battle of Benghazi, and is absent in the current occupant of the Oval Office who repeatedly told the American people, over a three year period, “If you like your doctor you can keep your doctor; if like your health insurance you can keep your health insurance.”

Leadership has been exhibited by the endorsed and elected Combat Veterans For Congress over the last four years, they worked to limit the expansion of the boated government bureaucracy, they opposed the flawed Obamacare Law which canceled 6.8 million health insurance policies (covering about 26 million family members), they have opposed the Socialist policies of the Obama administration which has been trying to destroy the Free Enterprise System that built the most effective economic engine in the history of mankind, and fought to properly fund the US Armed forces. Every endorsed Combat Veterans For Congress, “The Few The Brave”, have tried to rein in the out of control spending by irresponsible members of Congress. Unfortunately, too few of them have been elected to Congress to affect the votes of 535 members of Congress’; with your help we intend to change that this year. Combat Veterans For Congress will support the independence and freedom of all American citizens as outlined in the Bill of Rights, will work to improve the Obama administration’s flawed health care program, and will protect the retirement pensions and benefits of all veterans and active duty military personnel.

We spend an inordinate amount of time vetting all the Combat Veteran’s records who want to run for Congress, and end up endorsing a relatively small percentage of those under review, to try to ensure that they measure up to the elected Combat Veterans For Congress. We encourage you to support and elect the endorsed Combat Veterans For Congress listed in the attachment, and the new slate of Combat Veterans For Congress who will be endorsed leading to the 2014 election. Upon entry into the US Armed Forces, they raised their right hand and swore to protect and defend the US Constitution; they can be trusted to continue to do so. A Combat Veteran, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to “The United States of America” for an amount “up to and including his life.”
