Harris ‘Will Not Suffer Yes Men And Women’

Sept. 16, 2024 Editor, The News-Gazette: As a former Army officer, I have seen my share of U.S. presidents come and go. Now, in this age of turmoil in the Middle East, Ukraine and many other places, our country needs leaders who are serious, level-headed and measured in their approach. I am strongly urging voters to support Kamala Harris and Tim Walz. Vice President Harris will strengthen the tradition we’ve had in the past to bring our nation together to face challenges and to relentlessly strive to work with Congress to pass laws for the benefit of everyone, regardless of party affiliation.

Harris has demonstrated she will use the knowledge of smart, experienced people she appoints to arrive at intelligent, strong decisions. She will partner with other countries devoted to democracy, keeping dictators at bay and emphasizing human rights. And she will come to the office every day to work for a commonsense approach to strengthening our economy and to providing border security without demonizing others.

Harris will not suffer “yes” men and women, or platitudes and concepts that do not offer specifics.

It’s a very exciting time; let’s get this done. Elect Harris and Walz! RICK LEECH Rockbridge County Member, Veterans for Harris
