Mr. and Ms. Fellow Americans, Listen Up!
THIS IS THE TRUCK DRIVER FROM ALABAMA.
I have created a product for educational purposes as a business venture. This product will be implemented into the work force and it will create many jobs for many people.
It is not the total solution for this sagging economy, but it will sure put some meat and potatoes on many tables. It will create new ideas. It will create hope, and where there is hope there is faith, and where there is faith there is success, and where there is success, there is value. So I say to all you folks, young and old alike, get your education now. I know that you are thinking that I just want to sell my product and you are absolutely correct; but I also want to help stimulate this economy. We can do that by putting people to work. After the company has become a success, it will not only generate revenue for health insurance for the employees, but for our elderly people in this country who seen to have been forgotten.
So, I say to you, America, get your education now.
You see, I was born in rural Alabama during the Depression and I was raised by my grandmother, Mandy. Although she could neither read nor write, she taught me the value of faith. You see, I am not feeling sorry for myself because I am sixty one and a half years of age and I plan to further my education once my LET'S GO TO SCHOOL product is on the market. I sincerely hope that many seniors will follow.
Now, let me tell you about politics, you see the conservative Republicans want everyone to be born rich and that is not probable. And on the other hand the Democrats want to use tax payer's dollars on some programs that do not work because they do not follow through with the training and education for these people , which is so badly needed. Now, listen to this - we have elected officials on both sides of which I have much respect for, and they are sitting there in Washington, DC with boxing gloves on and throwing rocks at each other, and using large amounts of electricity. telephones, water, gas, wear and tare, and other utilities, not to mention time, when you should be gone fishing with your grandson or son, the best idea is to go shopping with your wife. I wrote President Bush a letter regarding this in January 1990.
Now, you White House folks have had two hundred years to run this country correctly and you have failed consistently. So, as I look back in remembrance of how grandma brought us through the crisis, maybe that it is time for us to start thinking about giving our Women a chance to run this country. So, in essence, what I am saying to you Mr. Next President, if you fall short of correcting these many problems that our American people are faced with in this country, then "Sir" do not come back for seconds. And now the things that I am going to say does not include females that are members of the departments.
Mr. Senate, Mr. Congress, Mr. House, all the above, you seem to forget our elder people --- the ones that made many roads possible for you to travel.
And our worse case scenario is not educating our young folks, of which will be making your decisions in the future. So if you do not correct our major problems that we face today, y'all just line up and meet me behind Joe's place, leave your boxing gloves behind, but bring PLENTY OF TOOTH PICKS!
My fellow Americans, ask not what education can do for you, but what you can do for education.
GOD BLESS AMERICA,
Matt Davis
