Let's vote for Dan Sullivan

I for one am going to vote for Dan Sullivan, because I feel that he would be the best for Alaska. Primarily because we are both Republicans or conservatives.

I think I've seen every ad on TV by both Begich and Sullivan. One, I like Dan's ads much better and two, Begich voted for Obamacare, putting my healthcare in the hands of bureaucrats, who think a temperature is what registers on the thermometer outside the kitchen window. My future is going to be decided by a "death panel" which is another word for a panel of people who will decide what level of care I'm going to get at the age I am, never mind my general health or activity level. ( of course I am going to have to make sure that if I'm in the hospital that they don't OD me on Morphine) But for the true Alaskan Begich to decide for himself that I need a panel of "experts" to tell me what my health care is going to be, instead of me and my doctor(s) is beyond my belief.

In fact, I wrote Mr. Begich right after he voted for Oblamercare and told him the thing what would make him a one-term Senator is the fact that he did help the Senate in passing that unconstitutional law.

Just that alone, if I was of the same Party as Mr. Begich I would have voted in the Primary election to get him out of office.

Those are not the only reason I am voting for Mr. Sullivan, but it's good enough to write and express my opinion. All those women who say they don't want Dan Sullivan to decide what level of health care they get should vote for him, instead of Mark Begich because M. Begich is the one who put their healthcare in someone else's hands.

Yours in good citizenship,
