As many of you are aware, I am a candidate for Kingston City Council. Being a political neophyte, I can use all the help I can get. I am encouraged by the growing support I am receiving. If you live, vote or have family or friends in Kingston, please take a look at my website. If you feel that I'm on the right track, I'd love to hear from you! I've never been a big fan of political ads, signs, and contributions but the fact is, they are necessary parts of the process. I need more locations for large and small signs and if you will send me a private email and include your address, I'll bring one to you and will remove it after the election. I would also welcome the opportunity to meet with community members to discuss my ideas for Kingston. A link to my website is below. You can also make a contribution there if you choose.
Thanks!
Randy Martens

Randmart, you run a company dealing with credit cards...mmmm makes me wonder if you like debt!!! I am sure glad you are not running in Harriman.
You need to check out Dave Ramsey.Com Credit Cards are bad things and thats the reason we are in the mess we are in now in America, so sorry pal I just cant help you. "I am debt Free"
Your Logic is curious
I sell devices to merchants that enable them to take credit cards. Credit ,whether you choose to use it or not is a vital part of our economy. If some people who use credit cards are unable to control their habits; is that my fault? That's sort of like blaming cars for murder or indicting bankers for making loans. Dave Ramsey is a great guy and has helped a lot of people. If you are debt free....more power to you.

that today is the electronic age.
Electronic transer of money today,
was that that simple coin brought 2,700 years ago
to financial transactions.
Let's keep moving forward,
but remember the balance of nature.
