Congresswoman Karen Thurman, Chair of the Fla. Democratic (?) Party and MC of the Party's Convention 10/8-11/09, leading up to the Primary election next year, twice refused to introduce me, a valid Candidate for Governor and a Delegate, to the main gathering of delegates.
I was forced to stage this picture in the empty auditorium afterwards!!!
She and four members of her staff told me both times that Alex Sink is the only one
they were endorsing and introducing!??!
****
They threatened to call security if I didn't sit down.
****
THIS WAS SO WRONG !!!
****
Are they afraid or is it something else!?!?!?!
***
Immediately afterwards, I spoke to State Rep. Ron Saunders, other elected officials and leaders of the 'Black Caucus'.
They all did nothing. None got mad.
Some said, "That's too bad or Karen does things like that!"
***
Two delegates asked me why I didn't get a chance to speak to the gathering and wasn't even introduced.
They said, "We saw you walk to the stage twice
and talk to "them".
***
Please help me spread the news of this injustice!
It doesn't matter if you think I can win the election.
Also, it's hard to win as an Independent.

Welcome! PLEASE HELP ELECT ME,
JOE ALLEN
FLORIDA’S
NEXT GOVERNOR
Governor Charlie Crist & I
“LET’S FIX FLA."
The Right Man with the Right Plan!
Independent Democrat for Fla. Governor Joe Allen
*****
GOVERNMENT IS OUT OF CONTROL!
IF YOU WANT CHANGE, YOU MUST CHANGE THE PEOPLE IN CHARGE!
***
I am announcing my candidacy for Governor of Florida, 2010 to replace Charlie Crist, Republican, who will not seek re-election. We met in Key West a few days after his announcement. In April, 2009, I spoke with Senator Mel Martinez twice at Key West’s San Carlos Cuban Heritage Center and at the Harvey Government Center. We discussed issues facing Florida. I had a similar discussion with Congresswoman Ileana Ros-Lehtinen and met with Congressman Kendrick Meek, candidate for Senator, in Key West. I met Congressman Ron Saunders a few times, too.
********
I AM AN INNOVATOR!Let's save money!!
GOVERNMENT IS TOO BIG!
Florida has 67 counties! Each one has its own everything! They have 67 School Boards and 67 personnel departments, libraries and court systems, plus many other overlapping facilities. If they consolidate or share services, we will save a lot of money! On some programs and issues, I want them to work together as 10 Regional County Districts.
What do you think?
********
Senator Mel Martinez
According to the Miami Herald's Sept. 6, 2009 article:
Alex Sink, Florida's Chief Financial Officer(?) and a Pension Fund Trustee(?), agreed with a plan to invest $266 MILLION DOLLARS of FLORIDA'S MONEY
in a risky NEW YORK CITY real estate deal and LOST ALL OF IT!!
(PLEASE, READ THAT AGAIN.)
They did contribute to her last campaign! Hmmm!?!
***
Let's talk: Even if ALL $266 MILLION DOLLARS wasn't lost, I think they should INVEST FLORIDA'S MONEY IN FLORIDA TO HELP FLORIDIANS !!!
***
DON'T YOU!?!
***
The governor is also a Trustee.
I WILL ONLY INVEST IN FLORIDA!!!
***

***
Sorry, but there's more:
A June 25, 2009 Miami Herald article documented this:
Alex Sink and Bill McCollum are being investigated
for their personal use of state planes.
One trip costs $2,461. and she paid only $273.
One of his costs $1,200. and he paid nothing.
Lt. Gov. Kottkamp finally paid $10,400. for an earlier trip.
We trusted them! BIG MISTAKE!!!
Maybe we should thank them for showing us
what they do with our hard-earned money
before either one becomes governor.
***
TOGETHER WE ASPIRE, Congressman
TOGETHER WE ACHIEVE! Kendrick Meek
***
Most of my opponents were in office when Florida and America got into BIG trouble. Things haven’t been this bad since the Depression! What did they do about it?
Now, they have a plan? Right!?!
*
Experience is good - unless you were part of
a bad government!
***
Some of my opponents have
so much political baggage
that it could be considered cargo!
JOE QUE, BETA '65
LINCOLN UNIV., PA
Four of Florida’s recently elected top officials are all abandoning their posts. Governor Charlie Crist,
Attorney General Bill McCollum, Senator Mel Martinez, all Republicans and even Chief Financial Officer Alex Sink, a Democrat, are leaving or deserting!
LET THEM GO!!
Less than two years ago,
we supported them with our
money, time, effort and votes!
For the next two years,
they will be lame ducks
and lame leaders!
*** Congresswoman
IT’S TIME FOR CHANGE! Ileana Ros-Lehtinen
ELECT JOE ALLEN
***
Florida is last in using its allotted federal highway stimulus money! Only 2%!
But, it's first in crimes against the homeless!!
***
Alex Sink, the Chief Financial Officer(?), is supposed to be managing our money! She flew off somewhere to give a speech having to do with "Safety for Seniors". That's nice, but that's not her job!!!
***
Bill McCollum, the State Attorney General(?), is supposed to be managing crime!
Many people don't know what he's doing other than something to do with internet porn. There are criminals to catch and bring to trial!!!
***
WHAT ARE THEY DOING!?!
***
Florida lost 392,000 jobs in the past year. Unemployment is almost 11%.
In just the last six months, 268,064 properties foreclosed.
That's more than a quarter of a million!
***
IF YOU WANT THE SAME
BAD CONDITIONS TO CONTINUE,
I CAN'T HELP YOU!
BUT, IF YOU REALLY WANT
A NEW BEGINNING OF A BRIGHT NEW AGE -
HELP ELECT ME, JOE ALLEN!!
THESE ARE DIFFERENT TIMES -
WE NEED A DIFFERENT TYPE OF LEADER!
I WILL DO THINGS DIFFERENTLY!
Congressman Ron Saunders My visionary leadership can restore our state!

PLATFORM – MY TOP TEN ISSUES
My platform will use the acronym, S.A.F.E
· Sunshine is America’s Future Energy - Florida is the Sunshine State! It’s renewable energy. We will be the new Silicon Valley. I will put Solar Panels on all government building, schools and hospitals to “Go Green”. I agree with Senator Bill Nelson. I am against off-shore oil drilling. I will promote clean Wind and Wave Energy Programs. This will provide jobs, industries and a broader tax base. Others didn’t do it! WHY NOT!?!
· Safety for American Families in Emergencies - Florida is in a hurricane zone. Hurricane Wilma destroyed my house! We have major disasters – hurricanes, tornadoes, droughts, floods and fires. We must be prepared B.D.A. - before, during and after. I will create jobs! Others didn’t do it! DID THEY!?!
* Soldiers Are Friends of Everyone - I will invite all branches of the military to train in our cities and parks, including school yards and gyms after hours. They will be a crime deterrent. In emergencies, they will already be here - ready, willing and able to help. We will have the safest state. Plus, our economy will benefit greatly.
· Schools Are Failing Everywhere – The U.S. Dept of Ed. rated Florida’s schools 42nd out of 50 states. We are #8 from the bottom. That’s the BOTTOM fifth! Many dropouts end up in prison. As an educator, I served on the frontlines in three states. I can help. I will create more trade schools. What did others do?
· Health Care Reform: Save Money At Doctors, Hospitals and For Prescriptions Every time – I will support state and federal programs to offer instant 25% discounts on bills. Automatic savings – just show your I.D. and Social Security cards. Others didn’t do it! DID THEY!?!
· Get Companies to Relocate to Florida – Offer incentives plus employees will benefit with no state income tax and a real estate buyers market. This will provide jobs and a broader tax base. Others didn’t do it! WHY NOT!?!
· Shipping America’s Freight Everywhere - Florida is the Gateway to the Caribbean Basin, Cuba, Central and S. America, the Panama Canal and the Pacific Rim ™. Let’s expand Florida’s ports. This will provide jobs, industries and a broader tax base. What did others do?
· Sports Are Florida’s Enterprise – I want to bring the Olympic Games, World Cup Soccer and many other championship events to all of Florida. We hosted several Super Bowls. We have stadiums and arenas. It’s cost-effective because we won’t have to build any. I will start the Annual Florida Games! This will create jobs and new income streams. Others didn’t do it!
· Save Animals From Extinction and Extermination – Florida is America’s Rainforest™. Let’s promote Eco-tours of our flora and fauna. We have the Everglades, Lake Okeechobee, Silver Springs, many state parks and miles of beaches.
· Python Snakes Are Florida’s Enemies – They are spreading from the Everglades to the Keys and all of Florida. They are big enough to swallow a gator! Senator Nelson wants to stop them, too. I will get the Wildlife and Interior Dep'ts to stop them. Others didn’t do it! WHY NOT!?!
· Boy Scout Joe Allen, Governor of Florida helping Everyone – I will make sure that your needs are met. Others didn’t do it! DID THEY!?!
· Other Interests - There is a program to restore voting rights to ex-felons.
* I will form the Florida Volunteer Corps. Let’s help each other!
* On First Saturdays, we'll Always Clean Florida Every month - Clean out, Remove, Repair, Paint and Plant flowers.
· I will abolish the Mosquito Control Boards and use the money to hire more mosquito control workers. Many others Boards, Councils and Commissions will be eliminated.
· * I will have regular 'State of the State' town hall meetings throughout the state.
· Since Florida will be greatly affected by any changes in US - Cuba relations, I want to be involved in the process.
I will be the American Ambassador to the Caribbean
and the Caribbean Ambassador to America.
· Foreign Affairs: Stop Giving Away Our Money - Only Food, Medicine & Equipment that’s made by American workers. I will create jobs!
