I wish to announce my candidacy [View All]

[Dr.Phool]

For U.S. Congress in Florida's 9th district. I'm going to run against long term Republican incumbent Mike Bilirakis. We're in the Tampa Bay area covering parts of Pasco, Hillsboro, and Pinellas Counties.

I need a lot of volunteers to get 5,000 petitions signed in the next 6 weeks to get on the ballot.

I'm a progressive Democrat in the Paul Wellstone model. I'll have a web-site up and running soon, and need about a $500,000 for the campaign. I was told by a consultant today to plan on spending every waking hour for the next 9 months raising money. Sounds like fun, but I guess I'll have to do it. We have to take our country back, and this is a start.

Thanks,

Richard Chapman for Congress:kick:
