Letters to the Editor over Debate Barring
The Morning Call devoted a half page elaborating why they are barring my campaign from their debate. The article did not address 1) why the Morning Call first offered myself an invite which I accepted back in June, then rescinded this offer and 2) the deficiencies in the poll, which are highlighted here. While I [...]
Political Economic Suppression
“None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe they are free.” – Johann Wolfgang von Goethe The economic depression is waking up more and more Americans to the sad truth that the federal government is out of control. A fascist state is quickly developing in America, one of the few rare places in [...]
Response to Morning Call’s Skewed Poll
“… that is why our press was protected by the First Amendment — the only business in America specifically protected by the Constitution — not primarily to amuse and entertain, not to emphasize the trivial and the sentimental, not to simply “give the public what it wants” — but to inform, to arouse, to reflect, [...]
Happy Constitution Day!
Today is the anniversary of the September 17, 1787 ratification of the Constitution of the United States. While the federal government no longer even pretends to follow the Constitution, I would like to write for a moment on the second-most important safeguard the founders tried to leave us. (The most important safeguard being sound money, [...]
Towne Dominates Dent and Callahan on the Internet
One place where Jake Towne’s independent congressional campaign is already dominating his establishment-backed career politician opponents is on the web. Towne’s website has an Alexa global traffic rank of 1.2 million, which means only 1.2 million websites have more traffic. Callahan’s website has far less traffic, with 8.4 million websites – including Towne’s – having [...]

Reflections on 9/11 by Aaron Emery
Today is the ninth anniversary of a tragic day in American history. For all the turmoil, mourning, and strife, not much has come from the invasion of Afghanistan and the subsequent occupation of Iraq. Osama Bin Laden, the self-proclaimed mastermind behind the attacks on 9/11, is either dead or in hiding somewhere in Pakistan. It [...]
Charlie Dent – A Dependent Follower
Incumbent Republocrat Charlie Dent likes to bill himself as an “independent leader,” when the reality is anything but. A hard look at the record reveals that 6 years in federal Congress and over $1 million in salary later, Dent has achieved little besides renaming a few post offices and helping plunge the nation into an [...]
Campaign Featured in the Reading Eagle!
In July, I interviewed with Reading Eagle reporter Mary Young on the wars and also on my campaign. In August, this article was featured in their Sunday paper, the main newspaper for the Berks county region of the 15th congressional district.
