Akron Tea Party Endorses Candidates |
|
 Akron, OH, April 26, 2010—To educate and inform its members and the general public, the non-partisan Akron Tea Party organization has been interviewing (vetting) candidates for state and national office. The vettings (including thirteen candidates) began in January and concluded this past Saturday.
Saturday morning meetings averaged 40-50 members. Candidates were each questioned for 1 ½ hours, receiving questions on a multitude of topics, from moderators Karl Harsney and Art Drentlau as well as members of the audience. Members of the audience numerically evaluated the candidates in the areas (1) Issue Knowledge, (2) Speaking Ability, (3) Candidate Trust, and (4) Overall Impression. Based on the candidates’ scores, endorsements were determined by the Vetting Committee members.
Of the thirteen numerically scored candidates, eight have received the endorsement of the Akron Tea Party organization.

What is the New Summit County Republican Party? |
|
 Over the last year I have watched a group that calls themselves the “New Summit Republicans” and wondered just what they are all about after seeing blogs they posted that were critical of local Republican leadership, as I have been. A post of mine last November pointed out the battle for control in our county party, and noted that it’s website was a complete blank only days before an election. This resulted in many prominent members of the party calling and asking “Are you a New Summit County Republican?”

Written by Bob Keller

Being a U.S. Navy Veteran, I anticipated attending a Veterans’ Day Ceremony at the University of Akron’s Martin University Center on November 11th. I had never attended one and thought it was quite nice for the University to host this as an annual event, complete with a continental breakfast for veterans representing the past and present, as well as the ROTC students that represent our future. It was a beautiful ceremony, conducted with precision and formality that reflects the true professionalism and classiness of the University of Akron, its staff and especially those staff who are veterans.

The following is a "Letter to the Editor" I sent today to our local papers. Little chance it will be seen in print form. The Sun News may print, they have printed mine before.
It comes from a frustration of the biased reporting on critical issues. Not everyone watches Fox News, or keeps up with conservative thought. You sure won't find mention of those with conservative ideals reported in the Big Media other than in derision.
