‘ve been seeing alot of posts on several of the teaparty sites about how Morgan Griffith is the one to beat in the 9th district. This really is a little strange to me. I have only recently gotten into to whole political thing, mainly because of all the anti-constitutional stuff that is being done to us.

I personally have decided to pull for Adam Light because I feel that he, more than any of the other candidates, personifies what the people of the 9th district are. He is a small business owner (LBL & Associates, surveyors and engineers) and he has first hand experience in the coal mining industry, plus, he actuallly lives and works here in the 9th district. When I think of electing someone to represent us, the people of Southwest Virginia, I don’t think of a lawyer or a career politician. I think of someone who most represents what we, the people of this area, actually are. Most of the people in the 9th district come from middle class, blue collar families. We are regular, hard working, taxpaying families, who believe in God, Country and family. I don’t know about the rest of you out there, but, I personally don’t have any lawyers or career politicians in my family tree. For once, I would just like to have someone pulling for me that is just a regular person. Adam is running in this campaign because he truly believes that he can make a difference for our area and the people in it. He believes in the Constitution and our rights with all his heart. He is against any and all programs that would “redistribute the wealth”, he is against cap and trade because he knows it would basically kill our way of life here in the 9th district, he supports term limits to ensure that we never have another situation like the Rick Boucher fiasco, and he is all for a flat rate tax. I’ve known Adam and his family for nine years now and can personally attest to his moral character and work ethics.

So, before handing this nomination over to yet another lawyer/politician, I would ask that all my fellow 9th district people take the time to at least entertain the other options out there. This has been a really bad year for America, but, it has also been a little exciting watching all the patriotic people finally coming out of the woodwork to take a stand for their freedoms and rights. Please take the time to at least go to Adam’s website and check him out for yourselves at www.lightforcongress.com.

Amen to THAT!
