In response to the letter to the editor headlined “Meadors has already proven himself,” I would have thought that the writer would have stated somewhere in her letter that she works for Marshall Meadors. Knowing this might have changed the way people perceived the content of the letter.

The comment, “We need a voice of someone who believes in public education, not someone who home-schools his/her children” implies that if your children are not in the public education system you do not believe in the public education system.

Most would agree there are many problems with the current public school system. Kevin Bryant has chosen to home-school his children. Marshall Meadors does not have children, so we do not know how he would have chosen to educate them.

Also, regarding the statement concerning health care knowledge, Kevin Bryant is a pharmacist while Marshall Meadors is a physician.

Both men are well aware of the problems with the current health care system.

Additionally, the growing number of uninsured people is probably more of an immigration problem than a lack of healthcare knowledge or experience.

I hope that those of you who take politics seriously try to get unbiased information and vote for the man who has already proven himself as an effective politician.

Lastly, I am not employed by either candidate.
