***OPEN CHALLENGE TO MY OPPONENT***
Districts around the state are offering the voters the opportunity to hear Republican candidates talk about the issues through a series of debates before the September 14th primary. Despite the fact that I have repeatedly asked for debates with my opponent, Sean Bielat, and have made myself available for such debates since he got into the race, he has agreed to only one debate which we had on the Jeff Katz Show. http://www.rushradio1200.com/cc-common/news/sections/newsarticle.html?feed=392190&article=7451884The voters of the 4th Congressional District deserve better than this!
Therefore, I’m issuing a CHALLENGE to my primary opponent for several debates between now and September 12th. I will make myself available any time, any place. Unlike my opponent, who requires numerous pre-conditions before stepping into a room with his only Republican opponent, I have only one pre-condition: EQUAL TIME.

PLEDGE TO THE PEOPLE - With your support, and if honored to go to Washington to represent the People of the 4th Congressional District, I pledge to work for the following goals:
- I pledge to downsize government by working towards a 50% reduction of the Federal Bureaucracy which will, within 10 years, result in a legacy of a balanced budget and limited government intrusion.
- I pledge to use my vote in Congress to apply a permanent limit on taxes that can only be changed by a vote of the people, and moving to a Consumption tax (Fair or Flat tax) which will stimulate the economy and help to bring jobs back to the United States.
- I pledge to implement Term Limits to two (2) terms and NO pension. Representatives of the people are not privileged individuals, but Citizen Statesmen and Public Servants who work for the people, not themselves.
- I pledge to end illegal immigration once and for all by fining employers. I will vote to use the National Guard on the border as Border Security agents, not as carpenters and contractors. I will vote to abide by the 9th and 10th Amendments to the Constitution concerning Individual & States Rights.
- I pledge to repeal the Health Care Bill and to promote a Culture of Life. I will work to make health care more affordable through tort reform and interstate competition. We offer the best health care in the world. Getting government out of the health care business and allowing the people to take the lead will open up more health care choices, cut costs, and help to eliminate bureaucratic red tape.
- I pledge to work for energy independence once and for all by promoting the development of this country’s abundant resources: coal, nuclear, wave motion, geothermal, natural gas, oil, and other viable alternative sources. There is no need to be dependent on foreign governments for our sources of energy. We can lower energy costs by applying science… not hysteria. We are Americans after all!
- I pledge to end voter fraud and to work for fair and secure elections by requiring a Photo ID at the polling stations, and by working to promote English proficiency and a knowledge of American History. Elections must be legitimate in order for the Republic to endure.
- I pledge to work for Constitutional integrity, individual rights and responsibilities, and to impeach Judges (and even Presidents) in violation of those responsibilities. I also pledge to reign in the legal aristocracy that now exists in Washington and throughout America.
- I pledge to work towards universal choice in education and enforcement of the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment to the Constitution. Getting the government out of education and the teachers out of politics will result in more competition, less propaganda, less classroom indoctrination and better educated Americans. Parent’s tax dollars will go to the school of their choice.
- I pledge to work for a strong defense for this great nation by promoting peace through strength. We can only keep Americans safe by publicly identifying our enemies. We can no longer serve as the world’s police. I pledge to always put the United States of America first.
So help me God,
Earl H. Sholley, July 4, 2010
