As you can see, to the right is the list of candidates who are running for governor of Alabama this year. They are in order by name, and are not labeled by political party. The reason all of the candidates are up on the list is because I want to cover them all, to give each their own chance to win my support, and maybe even yours.

Starting tomorrow I want to go full blast on the governor’s race, as well as the other elections going on in Alabama this year. It will be pretty interesting for Alabama in 2010, and I want to be here to help everyone grasp what all is going on the campaign trail. I will also be seeking some interviews with the candidates. For those of you who are knew to my blog, you might want to check out my interview with gubernatorial candidate Robert Bentley. Out of all the candidates, he was one of two candidates to actually respond to my request for an interview. The other was Bill Johnson, but our schedules never met up while he was in Mobile, and maybe we can give it another shot.

Maybe it is just because I am a small name in the state of Alabama, and maybe because my opinion doesn’t matter much. I can say this though, anytime I talk to anyone about the election, I always point out how Robert Bentley seems to truly care about the people of Alabama since he actually wants to get out and talk to people – even no-names like me.

Not all of my focus will be strictly for the elections in Alabama, I will continue to opine on national politics, as well as state and local. For more in depth Alabama politics, I urge you to check out Doc’s Political Parlor, which is now linked in my blogroll. It is truly the best place to get the latest happenings in Alabama, and I could only dream on my blog being anything like it.

So remember to start checking by again tomorrow for all the information on the gubernatorial race. I will be setting up some places here on the blog where you can get to know each candidate better, and compare the views of each of them so you know who you really want to support. For now, check out all of their websites to the right, remember don’t just like someone because you know them or their name, but give them all a chance, and go in with an open mind. This election, just like every other one, is critical for Alabama’s future. A man might have a nice name, but is he (or she) truly the right person for the state?

This is the year. This is the year that Americans can take back their country. Americans across the country have finally woke up and seen that not only was Washington filled with corrupt politicians, but their states, counties, and local government too. They realized who the bad guy was, and what the good guy looks like. Their eyes are open, and this is the year – the year the Americans take back their country.

This year is crucial to us all. We have midterm elections this year, in which we as Americans have the opportunity to kick the politicians, who aren’t for “We the people” and are only in office to benefit themselves, out of office, and to replace them with the right people. The right people are those who believe in the Constitution, who want to serve their people, and who want to reign in the power of government, and restore the country back to where it should be.

We have the chance to stop government waste, government power grabs, and government corruption. We the people have what it takes to do it – we just have to keep looking forward, marching strong, and finish what we started.

2010 will be the year of “We The People”. Will you be a part of it?
