    Reason for Seeking Public Office:

    My name is William T. Newton and I am, like you, one 'of the people'! And as such, "when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security."

    I'd prefer nothing better than to live my earthly existence exercising my unalienable Rights, among them are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. However, it has come to past that these Rights which were endowed by our Creator and enshrined in our founding documents are at risk of disappearing because of a 'long train of abuses and usurpations' similar to those that provoked emotion in the hearts of our Founders .

    As a Conservative, defender of the Constitution of the United States and champion of every oath of office pledged to the Almighty Creator, I have stepped forward and ask for your support that I may speak on your behalf to secure those blessings of Liberty which are rightfully yours.

    Edmund Burke said "all that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing." Do not allow evil to triumph. Do not sit by and do nothing. Join me and I will spearhead the return to those principles we hold dear. When I shout "America is Rising" you will know that it is because of you and your love of this great country!

    Help by sending me and other like minded Americans to represent you into those halls of government in 2014. Thank you for your consideration and may God bless us all! In Liberty.
