Loving Kari Lake And Loathing Political Solicitations

 Kari Lake for Senate

4040 E. Camelback Road

Ste 103

Phoenix, AZ  85018


Dear Kari:


I love you; were neither of us married it would make it much easier to propose.


Not to worry. I am not a stalker. I love your politics and fire, much like Marjorie Taylor Greene, Lauren Boebert and Nancy Mace. Well, and you are pretty. 


I am very sorry for your loss in the last governor’s race. I followed AZ from a distance. I live in Van Buren, Maine, a delightful town of 2,500 on the New Brunswick border. I walked to Canada one day just to say I did. Suffice it to say the border here is not the unconstitutional catastrophe you have down there.


Arizona surprises me. I thought the voters in AZ were withered conservative old folk. Apparently not. Perhaps more of them need to be murdered for the apathetic to understand what is happening.


I am a libertarian, a convert from conservative republican when I realized about 30 years ago that the democrats were handing the country over to the Amin’s, Stalin’s and Hitler’s of our country with almost no Republican resistance.


I am very comfortable as a libertarian, the political high road. I will probably vote for Trump because I firmly believe we are finished if Harris wins; especially if both houses go along with her. I voted for Trump in ‘16 but did not in 2020. He had to declare war on the woke, gun grabbers and the hate speech purveyors and he did not do that. In the end the only tool he had was funding veto and he did not do that either. After voting for a continuing resolution he once said he would not do so again.


And then he did. 


The only way to change government, the ONLY way is to starve it. I have watched that happen successfully.


Government has convinced the masses that they simply cannot live without the insightful guidance of those loathsome folks in D.C. I truly believe D.C. could slide into the Delaware and after a period of adjustment we would move on freer and richer post D.C. Our Federal government is a destructive force in a country with our constitution. If it does slide into the river, I hope you will not be there.


I believe political campaigns of any sort, including yours, should be subject to do-not-call laws. You and your purpose are NOT special generally and should not be exempt from nuisance calling law (your goals are important to me personally). These damn robo calls and texts are loathsome and often deceitful and that includes yours. I delete these message and the acknowledgement  “you will not receive any more calls from this number.” Great; from which of the millions of numbers will you text me next? I now reply “f**k you”  which does not stop the garbage but does provide me some satisfaction. I am resentful at the deceit and disrespect. I have replied that to you but of course you do not stop.


These “surveys.” Wow! A few years ago I realized no one reads them so I wrote (no longer possible, these surveys do not include dialogue boxes any longer) that I will give money after the requester replies to my submission with thoughtful comments, not an automatically generated response.


NEWSFLASH: I just this minute received a solicitation from someone who wants my money but not my opinion. 


I hope you win. I am less enthusiastic about Trump but will probably vote for him. If Harris wins I will be glad I am already 77.


You want money? Send me a survey, my answers to which you or an aide will thoughtfully reply and I will send you a small donation. I don’t have a lot of money. Of course you do not have the resources to reply to every message personally.  I know that. That is cold fact but no politician will get money from me until I am PERFECTLY convinced s/he understands my concerns and will work for my interests.


Having said all of this, I wish you luck, Gallego is unfit to represent mainstream America.


Let me know if you get divorced.


Sincerely,




John M. Tyson

Van Buren, Maine
