text: I was Independent until Jay Hammond convinced me to join a party in 1969. The liberal Demos were not in tune with my concepts of American Constitutionalism. I became a Republican - I've always been Conservative. 
     But adherence to "the party" has crippled both sides. 
     In Alaska we've seen more criminals & what should be seen as criminal behavior in Reps than in Dems.  I've become a 'Republican in shame only.' 
    Supporting Donald Trump is difficult, but supporting his concepts & promises to return our country to the greatness for which we all wish - that's where it's at.
     Let all us voters be moved by Policy, rather than personalities. We must see the threat of islam, the porous border, the adverse trade agreements, the nuclear treaty with Iran, military protection of other countries without contributions by them, disrespect for police & law, corruption in government at all levels, &a host of other ills & vote for Trump.
    Let Judeo-Christian ethics & statesmanship guide us all.
