THREE QUESTIONS FROM THE BUCKLEY FOR CONGRESS CAMPAIGN:

1. Are you better off than you were two years ago?

We're back to running record deficits, the economy is stagnant, unemployment is rising, schools are struggling, the future of social security looks bleak and health care costs are through the roof.

2. Do you believe America is heading in the right direction?

Endless war, Enron, massive corporate fraud, lopsided tax cuts, environmental battles with no solutions, government sold to the highest bidder....

3. When is it time to say we've had enough?

A MESSAGE FROM PETER BUCKLEY:

We need to take back our government from those who buy it away from us.

We can have the best education system in the world. We can have decent health care for all. We can keep the promise of Social Security. We can have sustainable jobs, a healthy environment, invest in our communities and expand the middle class. We can lead the world through our ideals and our example.

It is time to build an America we will be proud to leave to our children.

Our country is in crisis. Democrats, Republicans, Greens and Independents can and must come together to change the direction we're heading in.
