Cindy Harner, St. Cloud

Tom Emmer has been pretty quiet during his elected term as our U.S. Congressman. For the most part, he has kept his head down and his name out of the headlines. Say little, do little. Michele Bachmann he isn’t – and for that we can be grateful.

But with his endorsement of Donald Trump, Emmer’s true instincts have reared their ugly head. By endorsing Trump, he has ratified the politics of division, exclusion and prejudice. The Sixth District and the nation deserve better. By supporting Trump’s candidacy, Emmer is standing for the small-minded politics of fear and hate and against values rooted in the Golden Rule. By embracing Trump, Emmer is failing to represent the majority of us who seek to welcome and include our diverse friends, appreciating they contribute daily to our society through their work ethic, friendship and citizenship.

We in Minnesota deserve better. We need someone who will serve our better instincts and our ideals. We need a representative who will focus on building community, inclusion and consensus. We need a voice in Congress that will promote the development of jobs, transportation and education to enhance the future of all citizens – not just billionaires like Trump.

Fortunately, we have a breath of fresh air with David Snyder. Give him a good look and you’ll like what you see. He’s a fresh alternative with solid ideas, a pragmatic style and the kind of values that better reflect the caring, thinking people of the Sixth District. He will represent the future you want – for yourself, your District and your country – and will make you proud to say you live in Central Minnesota.
