The President has made an excellent choice for an Associate Justice in the form of Dr. Anna Rossi, a fiercely intellectual and constitutionalist legal scholar whose experiences are uniquely qualifying for a seat on the highest court. I look forward to voting for her!

Reginaldo Alphonsey's House, Fairfax County, Virginia


Alphonsey was sitting in his robe in front of BBC America when he heard a buzz in his pocket. His chief of staff sent him a text pointing out that the junior senator from Ohio, Ella Enchanted, had Tweeted out support for Rossi.

Alphonsey would've been livid, as he was with Hadid's betrayal, but he had reached a point where he expected this sort of thing from Ella.

So he picked up the phone and dialled her personal number.

"Hello Ella, this is Reginaldo."

GLEN ANDERSON CAMPAIGN STRATEGY MEETING



"DAMMIT!!!" Anderson smacked his fist into the desk hard, "I've been buttering up Rossi for nothing, she can't endorse me while under consideration for nomination." He was at the head of a long table at his campaign HQ in York County, his core staff seated on either side.

Anderson sat down and massaged his temple for a few moments before shaking off his stupor.

"Glen" Amanda De Sousa gave him a condescending looking "Its not that bad, she's still a valuable friend to have." Amanda had been with him the past two election cycles as his manager, they had become friends and despite the fact she never ran a state wide campaign before she was his ONLY choice for the job.

"You're right, i'm just pissed at how partisan the pick is. I don't think I can pretend to think she's qualified" He turns to his Press Secretary "Tianna lets lay low, if we get asked just say 'Anderson considers Rossi an personal friend and outstanding congresswoman, he looks forward to the confirmation hearing and is confident she will be confirmed.' something like that" Tianna nodded and jotted down notes.

"How are we financially?" the question was directed at the far end of the table where Tony Crawford sat in his typical grumpy position, "You need to do fundraising first Glen, we get plenty of small donations and you started us off nicely with your personal funds but you haven't focused on raising money." He shifted "Laying the groundwork is good but if we want to advertise you need to stop tiptoeing around it." Glen nodded slowly in response, he hated asking for money but Tony wasn't wrong.

"Alright everyone last item we have" Tracey Dunn the executive secretary and scheduler for the campaign began handing out folders "Once again these do not leave the room and will be destroyed after so please commit to memory"

It was entirely too early to select a Lt. Governor but Anderson didn't have too many personal connections in the state, he would have to start early in order to make the right friends.

"Kingston?" Tianna said surprised "yea he's a big name but he's a loudmouth, didn't he call someone a 'Hungarian jew' a few years ago?" A new voice spoke up in the room "Yes but 'outsider' is polling big right now, and Anderson doesn't have experience in the private sector, plus he's a millionaire... We can't discount him" Becca Moss leaned back in her chair as she spoke, the pollster was a new addition to the team but her perspective as an apolitical outsider only concerned with analytics and numbers was helpful.

"Secretary of Corrections Ed Corbett, national expert on crime, rehabilitation and criminal justice, African American, was appointed by a republican and asked to continue by Vilseck." Vera Grogan his staff aide and friend of many years sounded hopeful as she spoke about the pick but De Sousa quickly replied "Pennsylvania is the whitest state in the country, a minority doesn't win us anything thats just the truth, WE might know who he is but John Q Public doesn't and is he even still a republican? Look Congressman i know corrections is a big issue for you but it won't help us win the race."

"How about Thorton?" Tianna asks Grogan "Doesn't want it" replies Grogan "Shes almost 70 if she didn't try to get elected before she won't now, and she wont start with Lt. Governor. We should probably look at the legislature"

"Right" Glen said nodding, "I'm all for unconventional picks, but I need a relationship with the legislature. Lets focus there for now."

"Steelman, Argall, Coleridge, Marigold," Dunn says quickly hoping to focus the conversation looking intensely at Glen.

“Frankly” Communications Director Valdez comment “We don’t need Marigold, he’s a rising star sure but you have the young and goodlooking thing, you also have the finance credentials and are making great headway with the liquor issue, heck his status as liquor control board chair could hurt us.”

“So Coleridge, Steelman and Argall.” Glen shook his head “All Republican leadership, guess i need to stop taking pot shots at them.” After a few moments Tony spoke up unexpectedly clearing his throat, “Argall can raise more money then the both of them combined”, he said looking at the team from left to right looking for affirmation which he found in Becca, “A bit hyperbolic but yes, he has impressive fundraising ability but perhaps most importantly he is from Allegheny plus has the great pro-life and pro-gun credentials which you still lack. Additionally he founded a number of the education initiatives you want to expand.”

After a murmuring of agreement Glen stood up “Alright, top three are Coleridge, Steelman and Argall, reach out to their people lets get together do some events, campaign events if possible but not necessary, get me in a room with them for twenty minutes.” The rest of the group began to stand and pack, “As of now Argall is the frontrunner, but we are not making a decision till closer to the primary election. We are not rushing this, just laying groundwork.”

"What stupid s*** is he playing?" Jared muttered.

"So should we just go in?"

Jared's phone rang suddenly and he answered. His guard called in to tell him that Wilson had checked into the Hilton and he did as well. Jared told him to call back if Wilson went out or did anything major, but not to bother to snoop in close or tip him off, then hung up.

"Yeah, he's just playing mind games, let's go" Jared answered his own question.

No response came from inside the house.

Rossi Apartment, Washington D.C.

The House was in session, and she wasn't going in to work. It was an intensely strange feeling, not at all like a holiday off, somehow emptier than that, but not in a hollow way, in a heavy way, somehow. Description was obviously not getting her very far. There was a slight twinge, within a bit of a bittersweet feeling about the whole matter, of excitement, however, not, if she followed it down, from the nomination, though her joy there was very much there, but in not coming in to work this Tuesday morning. Had Rossi ever skipped class before, she might have recognized the slight thrill.

Instead of going in to work, Rossi had made the somewhat questionable decision to turn her attentions to the internet. Wrapped in a blanket from her bed for warmth and general comfort, still feeling fatigued after a night that had gone late with her phone ringing off the hook from family and friends, and a morning in which she had arisen early to submit her resignation, she trawled through the tubes, her main viewing on social media and media-media sites, seeing what the world was saying about her.

She had never been much for either, much less so for the former, but the tingle of it all had pushed her to take a look, and it was turning out to be a very mixed experience. The level of vitriol that could be leveled still surprised her, but it was the amount of judgment, not of rendering an opinion on a topic, but in leaping to conclusions without sufficient evidence, that really struck her. An article on the Huffington Post, for one, was savaging her as if a friend running down every flaw of her personality, even written by someone who never knew her. Lest that be contained only to the opposition, one writer at Townhall, someone she could not think of any connection to, was putting out praise of her character that seemed also excessive in its assumptions.

While preferring the latter to the former, as anyone would, the displays made her wonder just how much of a political process this was truly going to be. She was not an idiot, of course. She understood the partisan underlayings of such things-but her estimations, ironically, may have been far too conservative.

On social media, though, running through that foreign environment, it had a more personal feel-which was to be expected. She knew some of these people, after all, and an opinion there, if not even necessarily as meaningful as an editorial board's, when that moment came, would mean more on an individual scale.

While almost everyone seemed to be talking about her, a level of attention that she was not particularly comfortable with, three feeds lay dormant, those three which she most hoped to see some life, some words. Representatives Kiser, Anderson, and Yang had yet to condense whatever their thoughts were into two hundred and eighty characters, or, perhaps worse, did not think the matter worth commenting on.

A general absence from friendships had something of an advantage in that lack meaning a lack certain emotional contests that such brought-but at the moment, even if she would be hesitant to claim labels on any of three, it was a feeling of inadequacy that was coming to her unbidden.

She minimized the window after another refresh, and sighed slightly. She had been on the phone all night, but had not yet checked in on a likely overstuffed inbox, something that she would have to get to eventually, and eventually would be now. Clicking it open, beginning to scroll, she was surprised to notice a message from one surprising sender, and after a moment of thought, began to reply.

Having reviewed the message, and put slightly off by what might have been a backdoor criticism placed in the message via the specific word choice-or perhaps her simply overreacting, Rossi composed her response.

Dear Dr. Stephens,

I would appreciate such a meeting, Governor, though I am afraid that the travel would have to be on your part, as I have been instructed to remain in the D.C. area due to the noted nomination. If that is not an obstacle to you, I do not presently possess a schedule of my responsibilities towards the nomination, but believe it likely that the immediate future, at the least, will be available for such an occasion, with the greater proximity to the present possessing the greater probability. Should the approximated time and location be acceptable, I welcome a narrowing of such to the specifics to facilitate the requested discussion.

I've been intending to travel to D.C. soon to address a multitude of other political concerns. My secretary and I have worked to build my schedule, and if it works for you, I would like to meet you somewhere quiet. Does 2:00 pm Monday in the Rotunda of the National Archives Building work for you? If it's busy there, we can move our meeting to a park or coffee shop or something.

Glen Anderson Campaign Stop #13
York, York County



Glen had always like York, it was a city steeped in history the whole place was essentially a museum with building preserved from the 17th century onward. But before he could get there Glen went through seeming oceans of farmland.

York was the largest city in the York-Hanover-Gettysburg area and actually had a fairly large minority population for the state, an anomaly. Despite this the region was VERY republican, and dominated by conservative and rural interests.

Last September he visited the city with his daughter for the York Fair, he didn’t use it as a campaign event though much to the chagrin of his staff. Hopefully this year he could repeat the visit and shake hands with the ‘common people’. But today he was here for the history, tourism was a big portion of Pennsylvania’s economy and that was based on the historical attractions of the area. He began his day at the York County History Center, where he took a tour and thanked the people working there for their important work, taking pictures and making sure that social media was promoted. Afterwards he did a door to door listening tour through a few key neighborhoods, speaking with about 2 dozen families for 20 minutes each regarding their concerns.

From there he went to the York Galleria to speak with business owners regarding the challenges of running a business in Pennsylvania and what his solutions would be. He went to the local talk radio station WSBA for a 15 minute interview regarding his gubernatorial run and latest in national politics. He was of course asked about Rossi, to which he stated his support ‘Rossi is a an excellent Congresswoman and personal friend, I expect to see her confirmed successfully and do the nation proud.’

Finally he did his stump speech to an assembled crowd of supporters in a public park just outside the city proper

"Thank you all for being here today, and for caring enough about our great state to be involved in this effort to Get Pennsylvania Working for the better. This is an incredible turnout and its truly humbling.”

“Let me begin by introducing myself, I am Congressman Glen Anderson I was born in Lebanon and I have devoted my life to public service. Since I first start representing the 17th district in 2012 I have constantly asked myself, ‘how do I best serve my state?’ Searching for an answer to that question I have traveled to every corner of the state, from my alma mater Penn State, to the streets of Philadelphia, the rusted factories of Erie, to the farms of Lancaster I have consistently traveled and spoke to countless residents of our state, people from all walks of life about their concerns and hopes.”

“The common theme I've been hearing is frustration. People everywhere see a real disconnect between Harrisburg and the rest of Pennsylvania. We feel that not only are our elected leaders not solving the serious problems that face us, but that they are actually causing the problems, and making things worse.”

“The average Pennsylvanian sees a governor and a legislature willing to impose record tax increases on the rest of us that we don't need, don't want, and simply cannot afford.”

“We are perfectly situated to become the strongest state in the union, a economic powerhouse. 1/3rd of our nation’s population is within a 24 hour drive, we have a strong work ethic, our universities are leading advanced research that will change the way we live, and yet every day I see our state hemorrhaging jobs, businesses, and taxpayers at an alarming rate, with no discernible response, or action from Harrisburg other than imposing more taxes and stressing our economy to the breaking point.”

“Regardless of party the people of our state constantly tell me we are heading in the wrong direction, and through all my discussions, my travels across the state and country it has become abundantly clear that our state cannot change direction without changing governors, that is why I am running for governor, to get Pennsylvania working again, I refuse to accept the status quo, the politics as usual.”

“Let me tell you what i stand for... I’m proud to say that in during my tenure in congress, i’ve fought to expand healthcare to our first responders, I have championed education, supporting Education Savings Accounts and merit pay for teachers. Just this year I introduced bills in Congress designed to strengthen our pediatric workforce, to protect and encourage innovation for small businesses, to reform onerous regulations stifling the growth of our communities, and to start a grant program to rehabilitate our crumbling schools. I proudly introduced the “21st Century Agriculture Act of 2017” which will revolutionize how we farm and improving quality of life across the state. I’m Pro-Life, Pro-Free Speech, Pro-Second Amendment, Pro-Student, Pro-Small Business and Firmly against the bloated government and fiscal irresponsibility of Harrisburg.”

“As it stands today Harrisburg has 150,000 pages worth of regulations that impact business and every single citizen, we have a heroin and opioid crisis, we have a skilled labor crisis, we have an economy has stay flat for years under the current administration. And for every problem facing our state, the current administration seems to only find one solution… raise taxes.”

“Harrisburg looks out for itself not the state, from day one as governor I will push to cut property taxes, cut wasteful spending and work to create a more efficient government in Harrisburg that works for the people of our state. I pledge that as your governor I will begin a policy of zero based budgeting, we will track every dollar being spent and we will treat with respect every single one. Despite claims to the contrary I can tell you that Harrisburg does not have a revenue problem, we have a spending problem, and today I am calling on the state legislature to begin working on a taxpayer bill of rights.”

“We're standing up for the thousands of Pennsylvanians who are losing their pensions because of politics and incompetence. We're standing up for the Pennsylvanian’s who have lost their jobs and we're standing up for their families who are struggling to make ends meet. We're standing up for those thousands of small business owners who have closed their doors, and the thousands of others who are struggling just to keep them open.”

“I know the anxiety you all are feeling, I have a young daughter myself. She wants to grow up to be a dentist, and I want to not only make sure she can go to college and pursue her dream but that their will be good jobs and economic security when she graduates. Jobs will come from a healthy modernized economy not one built behind barriers to growth or handouts to a privileged few through corporate welfare. In congress I have made my first priority the economic security for families, that is something I will continue as governor, building a 21st century economy where people can work hard not just to get by but to thrive and give their children a better life then they had.”

“A few weeks ago I was speaking with some of my fellow congress members from Florida. They told me of Dorothy Famiano and her kids Danielle and Nicholas. Nicholas was born with a condition called spina bifida and is confined to a wheelchair, Danielle has autism and cerebral palsy, and they were both in the foster care program. Dorothy looked at these kids and where others may have seen challenge raising children with special needs instead only saw love and adopted the pair. Today Danielle and Nicholas are thriving teenagers with lives more promising than anyone could have expected.”

“Dorothy deserves all the praise and credit in the world for her actions, but she had hardships raising these kids. The public school system didn’t work for them, there was no place to put them, placed in classrooms overfilled with students that had severe behavioral issues it was not a environment where they could learn or thrive. It wasn’t until Dorothy learned about the Gardiner Scholarship that things turned around. The scholarship was specifically for children with special needs, applying through the Step Up for Students program the Scholarship gave her the ability to homeschool her children, letting her teach her children at their own pace and meeting their needs, from there her kids blossomed and made great progress.”

“Dorothy said ‘They have gifts that aren’t necessarily discovered in a classroom setting. I saw that potential in them from the first time I met them. The success my children are enjoying is due to the fact the Gardiner Scholarship is geared towards each child’s strength. It’s the personalized learning experience that has made it so successful. A lot of people don’t understand this.’”

“Thousands of students in our state face the same challenges that Dorothy’s kids faced. Programs similar to the Gardiner Scholarship program could prove a turning point in the education and development for our children. We need Education Savings Accounts, programs where parents can provide children with the education that best suits them, tuition, special needs services, curriculum and more can be funded based on the individual needs of the kids. This is educational innovation, this is bringing closer to bringing education into the 21st century, people demand choice in every area of life, education should not be the exception.”

“Six States have already enacted ESA’s and families are extremely satisfied with the results, over a 90% satisfaction rate. Empowering parents is a necessity to improving education, and ESAs promise to improve the lives of student by letting parents choose what’s best for their child.”

“Pennsylvania was once the leader in education choice, in 2011 the tax credit cap for EITC scholarships here was $60 million, it served 38,000 students the most in the country, Florida served 29,000 students. Audits of the program have found it saves billions for taxpayers and provides better education for the students through school choice and empowering parents. Now Florida serves 107,000 students while Pennsylvania doesn’t serve half that many, and is forced to turn down thousands every year. The EITC should not be arbitrarily capped but should be based on demand. As governor I will pursue legislation to increase tax credits automatically if 90% of available credits were claimed in the previous year. I will not allow partisan political skirmishes disrupt valuable programs as we have seen too often in the past.”

“School Choice and Education Savings Accounts put choice back in the hands of parents, they provide an escape route from failing and violent schools, they save money and lead to smaller class sizes, they give lower income families the same options as upper income families, and they force schools to improve to attract students. Perhaps most importantly it rejects the notion of a “One-Size-Fits-All” education, it creates diverse schools that respond to the needs of the children instead of forcing children to respond to the needs of a rigid curriculum.”

“ For towns like this I wrote the Student Fiscal Literacy Act, supports schools that try and teach their students practical financial literacy, how to balance a checkbook, save for the future and make smart financial choices that let them pursue the American dream. Its for towns like this that I wrote legislation like the 21st Century Agriculture Act, which amends the tax code to reflect the modern realities of farming, lowering the cost of doing business and making things easier, a goal I will continue as your governor. ”

“For towns like this I authored the Save Local and Small Business Act, which rewrote regulations a rules governing businesses on main street, making it easier to do business, lowering taxes and increasing investment in the small businesses that need and deserve it the most. It reforms the worst parts of Dodd-Frank, that have so badly impacted small banks and businesses and made it easier for entrepreneurs to get loans.”

“For towns like this I wrote the Invent and Manufacture in America Act, which promotes and protects manufacturers in America, not just helping keep our job right here in Pennsylvania, but beginning the process of bringing them back home.”

“For kids like ours I wrote the Educational Facility Rehabilitation Act, a bill that will help ensure that kids don’t need to attend crumbling schools, schools without heat in the winter or air conditioning in the Summer, because schools should have to worry about teaching children, not whether the facilities are safe. For kids like ours I authored the Strengthening our Pediatric Workforce Act, which encourages doctors to enter into the field of children's health, a field that desperately needs more doctors.”

“As your governor my agenda will all works towards the prosperity of Pennsylvanians, not select corporations or special interests. I will push for policies that promote charter schools and quality education, doubling down on policies like your county has where residents may apply to attend cyber charter schools with no additional costs to parents. And when we send our children to college I will pursue a policy of openness and much needed transparency regarding tuition and what your children will get out of college.”

“As it stands the democratic leadership in Harrisburg is a relic, large scale standardization, control, spending and bureaucracy, things do not reflect a highly diverse society, a highly diverse population and a highly diverse state, instead we have an lumbering ‘one size fits all’ government that doesnt fit with the 21st century. With all our advantages jobs are growing at less than 1% a year, Pennsylvania unemployment increases while the rest of the country decreases. Business and entrepreneurship has been stifled by over taxation and regulation, an unbroken 45 year streak of tax increases. We need new solutions, new innovation not more of the same.”

“The policies of Harrisburg have resulted in companies like GE sending jobs to Texas, our wealth and factories overseas leaving thousands of Pennsylvanians out of work. The negligence of those in Harrisburg have seen the jobs of skilled craftsman and tradespeople moved thousands of miles away, it has devastated our middle class, it has devastated our nation. Staying on this path and continuing these policies of relentless taxation, and allowing our communities to deteriorate will keep our factories closed, our inner cities poor, and special interests in control.”

“Jobs will come from a healthy modernized economy not one built behind barriers to growth or handouts to a privileged few through corporate welfare. In congress I have made my first priority the economic security for families, that is something I will continue as governor, building a 21st century economy where people can work hard not just to get by but to thrive and give their children a better life then they had.”

“Under the absent leadership of the democrats an average family of four in our state now owes nearly $20,000 to pay off the state pension fund alone. Many of our school districts, our urban areas spend over $300,000 per high school graduates, half aren’t proficient in basic algebra, they can’t read at a high school level. And for all the accolades the democrats have received for increasing education funding, less than 30% has actually gone to teaching.”

“This same leadership has led to the near collapse of our pension system in the state, the average family of four now owes $20,000 to pay off the state pension fund debt. 10 years ago democrats denied the existence of a pension crisis, 2 years ago Vilseck vetoed vital pension reforms, but because of the advocacy and had work of Pennsylvania citizens like you I have some good news... our Senate Majority Leader has introduced SB 1, and it is going to be a major turn around for our state. It moves us away from the unsustainable pension system to a system that provides choice for workers and stability for taxpayers. I have spoken with the leader at length about SB 1 and I am proud to fully endorse this legislation and I encourage all of you to contact your representatives and voice your support!”

“SB 1 is just one step in the right direction, we need to lower taxes of all forms, property, sales, income and whatever else overburden Pennsylvanians. Our budget deficit grows not because of a lack of revenue but because these high taxes, overregulation and a state government that continues to fund failing programs. As your governor I will institute an automatic sunset provision for under-performing programs and require the implementation of cost-reducing changes recommended by the IFO or Performance based Budget Board. We are going to introduce transparency measures and pass the taxpayer protection act to control spending and protect the hard earned money of families across the state.”

“We are going to become the most business friendly state in the nation, not through reckless corporate welfare that the current administration engages in but by actually creating a environment of growth, an environment where the American Dream can thrive. Our state has countless advantages, we have some of the largest, cheapest deposits of natural gas and coal in the world, we can utilize that to bring back the manufacturing jobs of years past we can become the global leader in manufacturing and energy exports once again. I refuse to accept Pennsylvania’s place at the bottom of the country for job growth and economic output, its time for that to end.”

“As your governor I will put an end to a lack of transparency in Harrisburg, the shadow budget, the lack of accountability. I am going to start a policy of job growth, education and fiscal responsibility. I will make blue collar communities like this one, ones that have been left behind by Winston and Harrisburg, my top priority unlike the democrats who have taken communities like yours for granted. How many years have democratic leaders made promises that never came to fruition? You all deserve economic strength and stability, accept nothing less.”

“Despite this lack of transparency, the state lawmakers are some of the best paid in the nation, the governor makes over $190,000 a year, the highest in the nation. I pledge to you today that as governor I will not take a dime of that salary until the salary is lowered! The lowest salary of a governor in the nation is $70,000, Maine, I call on the legislature to make it at least that low. All elected officials working for the state will have a pay freeze while I am governor until the budget is balanced.”

“I will do everything in my power to create an environment more friendly to business encouraging the growth of industries new and old. I am going to fight for the expansion of healthcare and higher education here in places like Erie, i’m going to fight for tax cuts for small businesses and across the board. As your governor I will be an advocate in Washington for the renegotiation of trade deals that are now outdated and costing jobs.”

“The policies of Harrisburg have resulted in plants like GE to send jobs and plants to Texas, our wealth and factories overseas leaving thousands of Pennsylvanians out of work. The negligence of those in Harrisburg have seen the jobs of skilled craftsman and tradespeople moved thousands of miles away, it has devastated our middle class, it has devastated our nation. Staying on this path and continuing these policies of relentless taxation, and allowing our communities to deteriorate will keep our factories closed, our inner cities poor, and special interests in control.”

“Ladies and gentlemen let’s have the economic resurgence of our state begin today.
