When we set out together on this journey we new that it would be an uphill battle, which it was.  Through it all I committed to stay engaged as long as there was a path to victory.  As we approach the final days of this election cycle it is clear that such a pathway does not exist in 2024.  Therefore, I am suspending this campaign immediately and encourage all Americans to vote their conscience.  While I have concerns about both major candidates my principle concern remains protecting the spiritual, and psychological well being of the American child.  Furthermore, while I continue to disagree with Mr. Trump's portrayal of his 2020 electoral defeat, the biggest threat to democracy I see on the ballot in 2024 is the so called "Supreme Court Reform" which the Biden/Harris administration has championed.  

         I feel it is important for my Republican colleagues to note that the data suggests that Trump is well positioned for victory.  This is quite different from 2020, when the data pointed strongly towards his defeat.  My advice to everyone interested in this election is to give their best to the cause and accept the outcome like adults.  Remember, in spite of our differences we are still Americans.  Regardless of who wins, it is my full intention to run again in 2028, hopefully more effectively.  I greatly appreciate each and every one of my supporters who joined me on this first attempt.
