Don’t bother with endorsements

1. As you sow, so shall you reap. I add: If you don’t like the crop then change the seeds.

2. If you can’t, or won’t, tell the truth about someone, keep quiet, or soon your audience will find you are dishonest.

3. If you have four years to check the truths about someone and report them, but don’t, and the country suffers very heavy losses because you and many of your kind have refused to do your duty, then you are something unprintable in the public media.

4. If you want change, but use the excuse that the current person has 20 years “experience,” you disregard the fact the challenger may have 20 years of better experience to bring to the job from a different source.

5. If you are granted privileges from the United States Constitution, not living up to the privilege means you don’t believe in the Constitution and your privileges should be revoked.

6. If you haven’t read the works of Cloward and Piven, about how to destroy a country, then you should if you make your living reporting “news.” If you have read it and don’t find it un-American you didn’t understand it and should re-read it.

7. In other words The Herald Editorial Board shouldn’t tell us whom to vote for since your record of choices for the last 10 or so years often is/was abysmal. Your left leaning is obvious, again. Please let your readers do their own research, or not vote at all.
