Dan Frank is running for U.S. Congress 16th District

Lancaster, PA - Constitution Party member Dan Frank is announcing his candidacy for U.S. Congress in the 16th Congressional District. Dan and his volunteers have collected signatures from residents of the Lancaster area in support of his nomination. Individuals and several local organizations have responded with support and substantial signatures more than sufficient to place him on the ballot for the November 4, 2008 general election. The Constitution Party is America's fastest-growing and largest third party based on voter registrations (Ballot Access News).

A former Republican, Dan, like many, realized that the difference between the two parties is getting harder to distinguish each year. "The GOP, the so-called conservative party, has racked up record spending deficits, refused to secure our borders, increased government intrusion, and sponsors policies that send jobs off-shore," Dan continues, "while the Democrats, the so-called party of the working man, have shown many of the same characteristics, which of course coincide with the party's mantra of more taxes and big government." The latest NBC/WSJ poll has Congress's job approval rating at 13 percent.

Dan Frank sees these underlining issues along with elitism in WashingtonD.C. as motivations to run for office. According to Dan, "Keeping jobs in America is my top priority." He adds, "I have spoken with many in this area who are concerned of losing their jobs, or have lost jobs, and now an economy in turmoil has rightfully elevated their concerns. It is obvious to me only multi-national corporations and special interest are represented in D.C., not all citizens." Dan has made a pledge, which he intends on keeping, that if elected, his votes will have to meet the Constitutionality threshold and benefit all citizens, not a selected few. In addition, he will only serve four terms.

Dan has also spoken out on property rights, gun ownership, and sovereignty, as well as advocating free-market in energy.

ALIPAC MEMBERS GO CHECK HIM OUT!

Again, that private PMs of support just keep coming in; I want to thank each and every one of you guys. I am working very hard to beat the establishment, as I am sure most know on this site, our country's sovereignty is under attack and most politicians in D.C. are none to happy to continue this assault. With a grassroots effort, perhaps we can make PA’s 16th district an interesting race.
