MEDIA

The inability to respectfully communicate, to explain our anger, and to make decisions with the greatest good of the people in mind is paralyzing our country, and I would argue that fixing this problem is one of the most important, if not THE MOST IMPORTANT task at hand before we move on to any other challenge.

Ultimately it’s time to level the political playing field so that candidates of quality, good character (not perfect), strong platforms, and innovative approaches from all walks of life can make their way into the political arena and have a real shot at building a viable and sustainable campaign. It’s rather unfair that a candidate with more money can out purchase another with ADS and win mainly due to increased visibility that is simply out of reach to other equally formidable candidates.

The American People deserve to have their voices heard with legitimate elections, a fair and balanced media that reports the news with integrity, and above all else a safe, respectful and conducive environment in which to share and receive information, to debate their findings, and to come to a COMMON understanding, making compromises for the COMMON good, and finding solutions that will not only help us to live, but to THRIVE. The American People deserve honesty and transparency from their leaders, we do NOT want to be talked at as if we aren’t smart enough to grasp what is really going on behind the curtain, nor do we want to be lied to … NO!

What WE want and deserve are leaders that are more in touch with the reality that each of us faces each day, waking up, going to work, paying the bills, struggling to get by paycheck to paycheck, raising our children, fighting disease, dreaming of better days, and navigating the toxic energy that is swirling about due to the radical hatred, prejudice, and break-down in communication in Washington, D.C. We want our leaders to be truly representative of the diversity that makes up OUR beautiful country, that also happens to be the most unique political science experiment in the world.

I’m grateful to each of you for being here with me, for celebrating celebrate Abraham Lincoln, and for asking that his very soul be infused into the path upon which we are about to embark together. It will not be an easy one, but I promise that regardless of how far this journey goes, it will be worthwhile. Every truth we have the courage to share, every kindness we have the compassion to show, and every person that shares their time, their talent, and their pocketbook with the campaign … that will make it real … that will make it tangible … that will make the vision of meeting in the middle not only possible, but a very probable and beautiful reality that we could ALL be proud of.

As the late great Albert Einstein said, “We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking used when we created them.” It is NOT about writing a Republican or Democratic narrative moving forward, it is about finding common ground and writing the AMERICAN NARRATIVE.

With that being said, my name is Ronnie Kroell, and I am officially announcing my candidacy for the office of President of The United States of America. 

Thank you and may YOUR GOD, bless America.
