John Laesch
Democratic Congressional Candidate '08

http://www.john08.com/

John Laesch is a military veteran who served as an intelligence analyst in the Middle East, and was involved in Counter Terrorist operations and the daily enforcement of UN Sanctions on Saddam Hussein's regime. John is also a graduate of Illinois State University where he received a Bachelor of Science in History and a minor in Political Science. John is currently employed as a union carpenter (local 195) working for Monarch Construction. He is embarking on two new roles in life; one as the husband of Jennifer Downard and the other, with your help and your vote, as the Represenative of the People of the 14th Congressional District in Illinois.

John feels that his background makes him well suited for an active role in Congress. He spent many years in both Africa and the Middle East, two areas that are becoming critical in United States Foreign Relations.

In 2006 he took on the most powerful congressman in Washington, Dennis Hastert, Speaker of the House. In his first time out as a candidate John received an unprecedented 40% of the vote in the 2006 election. Though John lost the election he was not defeated. It is with a glad heart and a conviction that he can make a difference that John campaigns to be your reepresentative in 2008.

Jotham Stein
Democratic Congressional Candidate '08

My name is Jotham Stein and I am a candidate for Congress in our 14th Congressional District. I'm proud to be offering real solutions to many of the problems our country faces.

If elected, I will work to develop and implement solutions to the key issues we face, including:

* Global Warming
* Our Military and the Iraq War
* Jobs in Our District and the Growth of Our Economy
* Food and Health Care for Every Child
* Universal Health Care for Every Adult

My campaign will focus on these and other key issues because I believe that they need attention now. Otherwise, we risk our future, and the futures of our children and grandchildren.

I am committed to addressing our country's problems and working within and across party lines to fix them. I believe that together, we can make our district, our state, our country and our world a better place for your family and mine. Please take the time to review my website and where I stand on the issues. If you agree with my vision for a better Illinois and country, I would appreciate your vote on Election Day.
