"Hastings to
Lose 2008 Congressional Primary
Votes"
Ray Torres Sanchez, Democrat Candidate for
Florida’s 23rd District Congressional Seat is a "People
Person" who believes that the current representative’s many
years of fancy pulpit speeches didn’t (and hasn’t yet)
resulted in improved quality of life changes for you, your
children and neighbors.
"I am a family man with three children and I, like all
other parents, want and hope for a brighter, safer future for
our kids", says Ray. When asked why he decided to launch
his Campaign for Congress in 08’ Ray quickly responded,
"As Mayor, I’ve visited many cities in our district over
the years and have spoken to countless community leaders and
residents who reached out to me asking pretty much the same
thing in their own special way. ‘Can you help us
Ray? Can you do something to change our community for
the better?’ We are worried about how unsafe our
neighborhoods, streets and parks have become. Can you help
us?’" Ray recounts.
There Is Growing Public Dissatisfaction With
Our Current Representation
With growing public
discontent with lack of progress toward addressing important
issues such as rising poverty, high unemployment, increased
violent crime, a poor job market, lack of educational and
recreational opportunities for the youth of our district, Ray
easily explains why we are experiencing a unnecessary and
worsening down-turn in our district’s neighborhood and
economic vitality, an eroding away of our cities and towns
which Ray believes "must be stopped in its tracks, and stopped
now!".
A Closer Look At The Facts
"Let’s
examine just the facts without slinging any mud", Ray
states.
"My incumbent opponent does give impressive speeches that
convince listeners he’s doing (or intends to do) something for
them. People have fallen for his slick public relations
skills ‘hook line n’ sinker’, but if a responsible
voter in 08’ were to take a closer look at our district’s
poverty, violent crime rate and rising high
unemployment, they’d start wondering if our past
tax-dollars have done nothing more than fund a ‘Congressional
Lifestyle of the Rich and Famous’ for a fast-talking flashy
representative who doesn’t deliver the goods to the people."
Ray states.
Ray continued, "After hearing the pleas from my friends and
neighbors for me to run for office to help change things for
the better, I said to myself, ‘I am going to become the next
Congressional Representative who will actually do something
for the people, something substantial for our people to see
and feel for the first time in their lives."
"It
is time for Alcee Hastings to step aside".
"One Voice For All People" - Making Your Interests
My #1 Priority
Focusing in on the unmet needs of
the poor, the elderly and single parents within our 23rd
District neighborhoods, Ray went on to say, "To me and those
who’ve asked me for help, we’ve all had way too many years of
my opponent’s empty promises. I say ‘talk is cheap’, so
when I get elected to Congress I am going to immediately
show our people what they’ve been missing out on during the
past 15 years."
Ray further comments, "My opponent, in my view, is an
"It’s all about me" kind of
congressman who has given us nothing more than scandal, wasted
years of hope, wasted years of waiting for him to initiate
positive change, while he and his female assistant extensively
traveled the world to give speeches to other foreign
bureaucrats, who in reality, could care less about how you and
your neighbors are struggling here in Florida".
"I intend to put an end to this type of self-serving
representation by winning the 2008 Election", Ray
proclaims.
Ray’s Well Thought Out Plan For Positive
Change
Clearly focusing on his supporter’s growing
dissatisfaction with the incumbent representative’s lack of an
identifiable track record that touches people, Ray continues,
"I’m an action person and once I’m elected to Congress they’ll
most certainly be more funding for the construction of many
recreational and educational facilities for our kids.
Our Sheriffs and Police Chiefs will no longer have to beg
their local county and city commissioners for increases in
financial support needed to make you and me safer, and; once
I’m elected I’ll cut through the red tape of the grant
awarding process quicker than you can blink an eye".
Accenting the importance of the rest of Ray’s plan for
positive change, Ray went on to say, "I’ll award local
business grants to small "Mom and Pop" businesses and quickly
take steps to attract more quality employers to our area so
everyone will have access to jobs that pay more than just
minimum wage".
Our School Teachers - Overworked and
Underpaid
"School teachers will find me to be
their strongest of advocates for increases to their low wages,
and; I will move to have our School Boards create a teacher
evaluation program that is unified, acceptable to teacher
unions and fair to our new teachers just out of college.
We must stop losing our wonderful, talented teachers to other
nearby states, states who express appreciation for their
teachers by providing them higher pay rates and assistance in
paying off their student loans thereby allowing them to live
reasonable, more enjoyable lives.", Ray concludes.
Search Out The Truth, Then Join Ray’s Campaign
For Success in 08’
Ray asks you to,
"Please become active in your community by going out into
your cities and towns. Take the time to drive through the
poorest sections, read your local newspapers about rising
crime, gang violence and lack of jobs. Speak to your neighbors
and ask them what my opponent has done for any of you.
Ask yourselves "What have you gotten in return?" for years
of seeing your hard earned tax dollars provide my opponent
with a flamboyant life-style that you, and most everyone you
or I know, will never experience in this lifetime.
Try to find just one or two major recreational or new
educational facilities for kids within your city or town that
was constructed with funding under the control of my
opponent. Wonder to yourself why local businesses,
cities and counties within our district are now considering
laying-off large groups of workers".
