Freedom Candidate Seeks
Congressional Seat
In Louisiana
DEMANDS
IRS 'SHOW THE LAW'
MAKING WORKING AMERICANS LIABLE
FOR THE INCOME TAX
SHREVEPORT, LA - Louisiana's 4th Congressional District is up for grabs, the incumbent, Jim McCrery, retiring after this term, and a freedom fighter who is savvy about the IRS's illegal application of the income tax to working Americans and determined to put a stop to it is in the thick of the race. Independent candidate Chester T. Kelley is making his second bid for the office and is running on almost every freedom movement issue. Kelley, a Shreveport restaurateur and a veteran, is well known for his long-standing practice of treating any veteran to a free meal at his catfish restaurant every Veteran's Day.
Kelley ran against the incumbent as a republican candidate in 2006 and although unsuccessful in that bid he captured 40% of the republican vote against a republican incumbent, an impressive accomplishment. This time, however, Kelley has dropped his party designation and is running as an independent. "I didn't leave the Republican Party, it left me" Kelley said, "My values and positions are the same, but the party has betrayed all of us and is no more intent on restoring our republic than the Democrat Party".
Kelley is running strong and standing on high ground. Among his issues are securing the borders against the flood of illegal immigration, enforcement of immigration laws against those already illegally here, elimination of the Federal Reserve, restoration of real money and opposing the North American Corridor and the NAFTA it rode in on. The theme of his campaign is "Both parties are screwing you." What makes his campaign even more unique, however, is that he is raising the issue of the IRS's illegal application of the income tax to working America.
Kelley is courageously demanding that the IRS show the law that makes the typical American liable for the income tax and insisting that Americans have a fundamental, Constitutionally protected right to keep the fruits of their labor. He is also demanding that the IRS show any lawful authority for treating only a fraction of Walmart's gross receipts as profit ("income") but treating the gross receipts of Walmart's hardworking check out clerk as 100% profit as though the clerk gave up nothing in exchange for those wages.
As a Congressman he pledges to continue to demand that the IRS either put up or shut up and will be introducing legislation to require the IRS to stop withholding from American workers personal earnings. Kelley cites the personal income tax as an illegal millstone around the family and local, state and national economies, pointing out that our standard of living, our economy and revenues from other taxes would soar if that burden were lifted from working families across the country.
Truth Attack, the organization originated by Tom Cryer, the Shreveport attorney who defeated the IRS last year, has endorsed Kelley's candidacy wholeheartedly and has pledged to support Kelley's campaign with ads of its own. Tom Cryer said "Every journey begins with one step and this is an opportunity for the freedom movement to take a great step forward by putting one of us on the inside, in Congress. All freedom lovers across the country must support this bid because all of us will benefit from its success.”
