Congress.org Publishes Interview With My Friend And 2012 Presidential Candidate Tom Miller

Patriot Freedom's Presidential Candidate Interview

Tom Miller is a 46 year old single dad who has been a career flight attendant for the last 23 years. Through his daily interaction with hundreds of American people from every walk of life, plus regular visits to each of our 50 States (along with many foreign countries), he believes his frugal, middle class lifestyle gives him the connection that has been missing from Washington for years. As a private citizen entering the Office of the Presidency, Miller will not be bringing an entitled or political ideology with him; instead he will be bringing morals, values and principles directly from Main Street America. Our Republic was founded and built by teachers, farmers and common citizens. Most of these individuals did not have any prior political experience, only a basic education and a love of their country. These average citizens took simple ideas based upon faith, freedom and hard work and created the greatest Nation on earth. Their successful recipe was honored for almost 150 years and the results were the most prosperous nation on earth, the largest middle class ever and the lowest tax rates in history with zero national debt. Now, after 80+ years of electing career politicians from the privileged elite, this dynamic has been destroyed and replaced with a bloated, controlling self-perpetuating bureaucracy. Tom has not worked his way up the political ladder to be chosen for this opportunity. Instead, he is stepping forward from among the people in the private sector to do the job that the career politicians are either unable or unwilling to do. As the son of a decorated WWII Marine, Tom was raised with the original recipe that brought the greatest generation through some of our countries toughest challenges. He has the skill sets, the backbone and the faith that will allow him to make the tough and unpopular permanent decisions that are being denied, neglected or only temporarily resolved today. He understands that we must sacrifice the wants of today for the needs of tomorrow in order to give the next generation an America that is stronger and more secure than was given to us.

Tom, Thank you for joining us tonight at Patriot Freedom Coalition here in Rhode Island and taking the time to answer a few questions that I know are on the minds of millions of Americans.

QUESTION - Mr. Miller, Please tell the audience a little about yourself?

Answer - I am a 46 year old single dad with one child. I am the youngest of six children and have been a career flight attendant for the last 23 years. I was brought up in a middle class lifestyle and have chosen to raise my family with the same values and traditions of simplicity and family time. I have had an enjoyable life by living within my means while respecting and appreciating what I do have, rather than dwelling on what I don't have.

Question - Why are you running for President? Do you think your policies will turn this Nation around to a sound fiscal footing and restore trust in the Presidency not to play politics with the taxpayer's hard earned finances.

Answer - The USA is being destroyed from within and our elected leaders are either unable or unwilling to make the permanent decisions that are needed to save our Country. Since career politicians refuse to listen to the people or accept the direness of the State of the Union, I am exercising my Constitutional right to run for the Office of the President of the USA. I refuse to be part of the problem by allowing them to give future generations an America that is in financially worse shape and with fewer freedoms than was given to us without stepping up to face the challenges myself. I will make the bold, unpopular and permanent decisions that are needed to be made today in order to guarantee that our creditors and other Nations don't make the decisions for us tomorrow.

Our Founding Fathers did not create the Office of the Presidency with an internal promotional or educational requirement because they wanted common citizens to govern each other, not to create a ruling class. After 4-8 years in office, the President was supposed to return back to the private sector and their previous life. It was only after the creation of the career politician that our government became disconnected and unaccountable to the governed. Look atwhat was achieved with common citizens in charge of our country for the first 150 years vs. what the career politicians have done over the last 80 years. It's time to return to our Founders proven wisdom and put a common citizen back into the White House.

On 1/20/13 when I am sworn in as our 45th President, I will only have a swearing in ceremony with the Chief Justice and my family. I will cancel all of the royal black tie balls, pageantries and self adulation's that have taken place before me. I also promise that for my entire term in office, I will not authorize or attend any parties, roasts or activities (except for official State events) that have been traditionally funded by taxpayers or "donations" and limited to the elites of Washington. My actions will lead our Nation into a new era of sacrifice, selflessness, accountability and long term fiscal discipline. I understand that we are no longer spending taxpayer's money but that we are now spending our great grandchildren's money. The problems we have are enormous and yet the solutions are very simple. It will just take someone with a strong enough ideology and faith to do the job. I am that person.
