Dear Governor Kelly:
Our democracy is in dire jeopardy when our elected
officials openly consider corporations, not citizens, their constituents.
Clearly, elected officials have for years depended on
financing in order to get reelected and have been heavily influenced by donors,
lobbyists and potential donors. But now, for money to rule the day seems a deep
offense to the very nature of our experiment in living with respect for all.
Perhaps your stance is demanded by the Democratic Party
to which you belong? It seems they are the purveyors of a large false narrative
that proclaims to be “for the people” with an “I know what’s best for you”
attitude. My observation is that there are precious few people currently
available willing to serve as statesmen (or statespeople, if you prefer)
thinking of the good of the system that has allowed us to live peaceably with
more individual freedom than any other in history.
The DNC’s concern for “diversity” is only skin deep. It
does not extend to diversity of thought, diversity of individual priorities,
diversity of economics.
The record shows you have lived long enough to know
better and cannot be desperate for finances. Please stop your participation in
the dictatorship of the corporate interest and listen to the will of the people.
If there is a rationale behind your considering corporate
interests and denying the decisions of Kansas’s elected representatives, I’d be
grateful to hear it.
Concerned citizen,
