Dear Mike and Sarah,

Mike I supported (donations) and voted for you in the primary of 2008. Sarah I vigorously supported McCain for president because you were his VP candidate.

Purportedly, both of you are considering running for POTUS in 2012. I could support either of you because I think we share common moral values. However, I'm starting to question that potential support because of your silence or little said against repealing DADT.

I cannot, as a Christian Evangelical, support either of you in 2012 IF today you do not use your public forums to speak out strongly against the potential repeal this Saturday of DADT by the lame duck congress.

Sir and Ma'am, it is time to show your real values. Taking a strong stand on stopping this nonsense today is called for by those that would ask for Evangelical Christian support. Of course, I can only speak for myself. However, I'm certain there are others just like me. Please don't allow the military to be homosexualized further than it is. Your silence is in fact helping to bring that about. I pray you will act in a proactive way and make it clear to the press and everyone that you oppose what is about to occur, and under your leadership it would not be allowed. Open homosexuality and military service are incompatible, and a moral people don't allow it to occur.

Palin came out against DADT in a Fox News interview. There are a lot of issues going on, and for a non-elected official, there isn’t much more she can do.

What is being asked is that they make a public statement about their position on the subject given that a historic vote on it will take place very soon. I think it’s a perfectly legitimate question for all of the so-called front-runners: Palin, Huck, Romney, Gingrich, Ryan, Barber, etc.

They should all be put on record NOW....since it’s an issue now.

Moreover, I’d like to have them answer the question: Will you actively work against repeal of DADT during the remainder of this lame-duck Congress and HOW will you work against it.

I’m tired of the BS from these politicians.

Currently there's a thread on FR about John Bolton. Apparently most think that Bolton would be a great candidate.

Perhaps your time would be better spent, going on that thread and informing folks about John Bolton and his views on DADT and Gay marriage.

Maybe the American people should do something about it rather than sitting on their hands and writing vanities.
