Since I am not now and never have been a politician and never will be, my goals are to pass along pertinent news, educational materials, network, counsel when I can and pass along pertinent information to my followers at large, and yes, pass on the occasional "opinion", I have decided to take my work for Kentucky to the site of [url]http://kentuckymarijuanaparty.org[/url]
This site I hope to see serve as a portal of information connecting activists , ideas and information throughout Kentucky on not only Cannabis/Marijuana/Hemp but also other pertinent issues in this demographic region.
Thanks to all the people who have supported, counseled and passed along an education to me in the past years!

SMKrider: In My Opinion
Posted 10-07-2009 at 02:52 PM by ShereeKrider
On July 4th, Atty. Gatewood Galbraith and Dea Riley announced their intent to run for the Governorship of KENTUCKY.
[FONT="]Once more we have the chance to elect a educated, caring, and motivated citizen who has lived here all of his life and fought continuously for the rights of the people of Kentucky.[/FONT]
[FONT="]He said that this would be his last "run" because he will be retiring from politics after this election if he does not win the vote. He also said we need 400,000 votes to indeed win this election.[/FONT]
[FONT="]His no-nonsense approach to leading the state includes REAL reform of Education,(" Our C and D students deserve the opportunity be trained into employability also"), Health Care, Environment, ("we must insist on reclaiming the land for future use and restoring the hills and streams to their natural state"), and putting the vote to the people as far as the "Casino" issue is concerned.[/FONT]
[FONT="]This man has earned the right to run for the Governor's office. He has worked long and hard for over 20 years on all the issues which affect Kentuckians. He is a very intelligent, motivated and educated man who I believe, given the chance, can restore this state to its own natural beauty both literally and figuratively.[/FONT]
[FONT="]In my lifetime I have yet to see one politician in Kentucky that, in my opinion was not corrupted.[/FONT]
[FONT="]The Cancer rates in Kentucky can be gauged by the zip code that you live in. The corruption and mismanagement of taxes and Federal funding is outrageous. The healthcare makes you sick, literally.[/FONT]
[FONT="]We live in a state full of Coal Ash Ponds which are causing increased illnesses.[/FONT]
[FONT="]The violent crime and dangerous drugs such as Meth and Crack Cocaine are rampant. Yet we continue to keep Cannabis/Hemp illegal. [/FONT]
[FONT="]I will be voting for Gatewood in the election.[/FONT]
[FONT="]I encourage everyone to view [URL="http://www.gatewood.com/"][COLOR=#0062bf]http://www.GATEWOOD.com[/COLOR][/URL] and decide for yourself who will give this state its best chance at survival.[/FONT]
[FONT="]Incidentally, Gov. Brashear and Mayor Jerry Abramson of Louisville announced THEIR run for the Governor's office this week. It was all over the news yet I have yet to see a media announcement on the news (on any channel) that is reporting Galbraith and Riley’s campaign. I wonder why that is?[/FONT]
[FONT="]Wow. Do we really have a choice here? What have either one of them done for this state's middle class citizens. Not to mention the ones of us who are now unemployed, underemployed, uninsured, and unappreciated![/FONT]
