Patriotic Celis uniquely qualified

I support Pedro Celis for Congress.

What disappoints me about Congresswoman Delbene’s waving-hands presentation is that she obfuscates her blind support of the Democratic Party’s political agenda. Delbene is willing to punish coal companies that produce our electric energy, stopping oil drilling (Keystone pipeline), and open our borders to millions of illegal immigrants. It’s the “political optics” that seem to matter to her not what’s good for America.

Pedro Celis’ conservative politics is a realistic position to protect America first and is an example of a legal immigrant living his American dream that should be acclaimed.

While Pedro’s speech is difficult sometimes, his love of America and patriotism is without question. He is against arbitrarily raising the minimum wage, believing it should only be someone’s starting wage, not permanent living wage. Pedro’s “all the above” energy approach to energy independence makes sense to grow our economy now while investing in new technology. He realizes that when the government chooses to invest in private companies (Solyndra) generally failure is not far behind. Vote for Pedro Celis!
