Not the Most Common Sense, However

Adam Smith stood up in front of the Seattle Times Editorial Board on July 7th and said he was the most qualified candidate of the lot.  Smith has a law degree and he's been in Congress long enough that he knows how it works -- who wouldn't with that amount of time?  However, Smith's degrees didn't stop him from voting for the dismantling of the Glass-Steagall Act, or Bush's invasion plans for Iraq, or nullifying habeas corpus protections as established in the Bill of Rights, or being in the opposition to the Amash-Conyers Amendment that tried to put some checks on an overreaching N.S.A., or from making a number of other congressional votes that defied good common sense and the will of the majority of his constituents.  By the way, I was opposite of Smith in regards to my position on all of the votes shown here, before the vote, and most of those positions of mine are on record in some source, primarily blogs and newspapers.

Mark Greene for Federal Way Mayor

I am officially announcing for Mayor of Federal Way, today, as I was able to obtain sufficient resources to file with the Elections Department on May 18th, 2017, and able to run a full campaign until the August 1st Primary, and hopefully beyond. This All-American Relief campaign will start picking up steam around the beginning of June, as now I'm concentrating on getting about 100 signs on the ground.  Next week, I will be sending out press releases to the major publications in our area: the  Times , the  News Tribune , and the  Mirror.   For more information about this campaign of common sense philosophy and patriotic fervor, see my website and keep up with the posts on this blog, as they usually come about twice a week or more. -- Mark Greene, Official Candidate for Mayor of Federal Way Campaign Website:  ALL-AMERICAN RELIEF Campaign Blog:   FW Politics

Our Newest Blog

There's a new blog of ours called "Council" that started on 2/15/15.  This is the blog that you now want to check to keep up with the goings-on of the "Mark Greene for Federal Way City Council" campaign.  Not that you shouldn't keep checking this blog as well, but Revived Citizens Party will, from this time on, concentrate more on party matters, particularly, as opposed to the Council campaign, which is officially a non-partisan campaign.  The non-partisanship of local campaigns, generally, is decided by Washington law, although we realize, of course, that politicians like to hide their true colors behind official non-partisanship.  However, we're different in that respect, our blogs make it pretty clear that Mark Greene runs a third party and no longer affiliates at all with the major parties.  The "Top 2" primary that arose in Washington, circa 2008, made that possible.

Our Washington State Lieutenant Governor Candidate Blog

There will be a special place to write about the Lieutenant Governor 2016 election, which I'm in, and specifically Washington state issues and matters, generally, even when the election is over.  All of the recent Lieutenant Governor posts on FW Politics  will be carried over to the new blog, Washingtonian.   I am proud to be a natural-born American and a Washingtonian, and I will need your vote to stand up for the Common Man in our state and our nation.   [Originally posted on Washingtonian on April 29, 2016; revised on May 26, 2016.]
