Shannon states "The destruction and devastation of our country at the hands of the socialist left sickens me as I watch our beloved rights stolen by a corrupt and immoral system. Many have chosen to flee; I have chosen to stay and fight. I was tough on crime as a prosecutor. I was a confident advisor as an accountant. I was a trusted friend as a teacher. As a prosecutor, I witnessed firsthand the horror of bail reform that releases criminals onto our streets, undermining our police officers and destroying our neighborhoods. As an accountant, I have seen the harm our current tax codes have inflicted on families and small business owners on Long Island. I watched as my father, a small business owner, suffered under the burden of excessive government regulation and taxation working to support his family. I watched as our government took his money and gave it to illegals for hotel rooms and medical care that we could not afford for ourselves. As a teacher, I saw parents' rights stolen as our government illegally took control of our schools. I stood up at school board meetings and was threatened with arrest by the very people who were elected to defend our rights and protect our children.I have voluntarily gone to court on Long Island and in Albany to defend regular citizens who have spoken up and tried to stop the insanity.Our Pledge states: "with Liberty and Justice for all." It does not say Justice only for the politically correct and well connected. I still believe in our Pledge and our country. I am also mad as hell at those who have failed to protect and defend our country. I am asking for your vote so that We The People can take back America."

Elbert Guillory is a former member of the Louisiana State Senate. An American Republican, he represented District 24, including his native Opelousas, and several rural precincts, from May 2, 2009, when he won a special election, until January 11, 2016, when his full term to which he was elected in 2011 ended. State Senator Karen Carter Peterson, the chair of the Louisiana Democratic Party, had indicated racism to be the reason why the Louisiana Legislature and Governor Bobby Jindal opposed the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, enacted in 2010 by Congress and signed into law by President Barack Obama. Jindal and the legislature had declined to implement in Louisiana that part of the federal act expanding eligibility for Medicaid, largely with federal funding. Guillory took exception to Carter Peterson's characterization of the opponents of the law, but his intent to switch parties had already been under consideration. Before Guillory's switch, the last Republican of African-American ethnicity in the Louisiana Senate had served during the Reconstruction era. In accepting the award, Guillory compared himself to 19th-century abolitionist Frederick Douglass, a Republican who had supported Abraham Lincoln. Join national political commentator/host Chauncey I. Brown III and Elbert Guillory for a very informative conversation about the current state of America.

Lavern Spicer is a dedicated advocate for her community, always going the extra mile for their betterment. However, her pursuit of change. Lavern Spicer states " I'm a businesswoman, food bank director, and unapologetic conservative. From humble beginnings, I worked my way out of poverty, and took my community with me. That's the American Dream I'm fighting so hard to protect. As a small business owner, I've seen firsthand how big government can be a burden on entrepreneurs. In Congress, I'll fight for small business owners by slashing regulations, cutting taxes, and encouraging economic growth. Broken promises and failed policies have left Miami starving, so I stepped in to help. The truth is, my food bank has helped more Black people in Miami than Democrats ever have. We need representatives who understand that the government is the cause of our problems, not the solution. In Washington, I'll keep the government small so our kids can dream big."
