Honoring the founders

I agree with Steven Neill (Letters, July 6) that we have the opportunity next month (and in November) to rein in our governments by electing candidates who respect the Constitution. I disagree with his list though, in that he omitted at least one outstanding candidate.

Randall Yearout is running for U.S. House, 5th District (Constitution Party). If you’re truly looking for a candidate who will honor his oath to uphold the Constitution, look no further. As a teacher of the Institute on the Constitution Randall knows and respects the supreme law of our land and what the Founding Fathers intended for our republic. His Constitution Minute commentaries can be heard on ACN radio across Eastern Washington.

If you’re concerned about government encroachment on your freedom and believe in principle over party, I’d appreciate your vote for Randall Yearout. You can find out more about him at www.yearoutforcongress.com.
