    Thumbs up Huffington Post -- Pro John Dennis article

    By Dustin Reid | Huffington Post

    NEW YORK -- There's an unusual candor about John Dennis that you don't often get from a politician who's running in one of the two major parties. But then again, a small businessman from New Jersey who grew up in a housing project can afford to be candid and honest when the media has marginalized him as a mere outlier against the most powerful person in congress, Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi.

    Great read, but a pro-republican article on huffpo will either get little to no notice or a negative reaction by the smug, snarky leftists that dwell on that site.
    Only voted for Ron Paul and Trump in 28 years of living because I greatly respect honest men/women who expose disgusting illusions.
