Tim Walz is good people

f you don’t know much about Tim Walz, go find out.  Christians will quickly find someone to identify with.  He’s “good people”.  He’s the kind of person who listened thoughtfully to Minnesotans and passed the kind of populist laws any sensible individual would want in their own state.  He’s as American as apple pie, camouflage caps, and Carhartt clothing.  His Midwestern values and rural bona fides speak to a man comfortable in his own skin and one willing to give the citizens of his state laws that make their lives safer and better.  Teacher, football coach, hunter, National Guard officer, US Representative, and unassuming Governor.  His views are our views, if we all dig deep inside and admit to them. Former felons get to vote once their debt to society is over.  Free breakfast and lunch for all school children so families can thrive, no matter the size.  Codifying a woman’s right to choose. Tampons in school bathrooms; if you’ve ever needed one, you know what this means for a teen’s self-esteem. Sensible gun laws that keep people safe that the majority of Americans repeatedly ask for and don’t get from the Right.

 Some will try to paint him as a liberal.  By deed and word he consistently shows he’s in touch with everyday Americans.  His character is above reproach and his strong set of moral values is so appealing in comparison to that of Mr. Trump.  Tim Walz will be an excellent Vice President.
