DAC News V10 – #07 Tuesday, October 20, 2009 – No Vote, No Voice!
========================================================
NOTE: I have spoken to Rich on several occasions as he inquired on the needs of the elderly and disabled in Virginia. Rich contacted me on each occasion and he doesn’t even live in my voting District. For what it’s worth, I endorse Rich Anderson as Delegate of the 51st House District because at least he cares to hear about the issues. I’ve never met his opponent, but, I know his opponent has done nothing to assist us for two years…….. Keith-
LQQK, A CANDIDATE FOR STATE DELEGATE
Candidate, 51st House District
Virginia General Assembly

Retired Air Force veteran, Rich Anderson, is a candidate for the 51st District seat in the House of Delegates. In addition to serving 30 years in the Air Force, Rich also served as the National Commander of the Air Force Auxiliary (Civil Air Patrol).
“After my career in the Air Force, I still felt a strong desire to serve the public interest,” said Anderson about his campaign. “We have problems in the Commonwealth of Virginia that are not being addressed, and real solutions are being drowned out by political posturing. I want to apply the leadership skills that I have acquired over my decades of service and work to bring real solutions to the problems of transportation, jobs and the economy.”
Anderson adds that increasing taxes is not the solution to revive our economy. “Our economy will rebound not by the deeds of the government, but by the hard work and ingenuity of the American people. I can tell you that when I’m in the General Assembly, I will oppose tax increases that stifle our small businesses and hurt the pocketbooks of every Virginian.”
Rich and his wife, Ruth, herself a 21-year veteran of the Air Force, reside in Woodbridge and are the parents of four children.
Throughout the campaign, Rich has made the voters the centerpiece of his campaign. “I’ve been knocking on doors, talking to voters since March of this year. It has been long road, but I really feel that this is where I get the best ideas of the campaign. Talking to the voters, listening to them on their doorstep, this is where I get my marching orders. They tell me their concerns, fears and ideas on what we can do better. We’ve knocked on over 19,000 doors, and I feel that it’s paying off. We’ve run a campaign from the ground up, and that is how I will serve in the House of Delegates. I’ll take my guidance from the people, and I’ll always put people above politics.”
