Don Rose Candidate for Painttown

I've gotten to know Don Rose over the past few years since he returned to Cherokee. He's an accomplished business man who hasn't made any demands of the tribe. When I was fired from the One Feather, he was among the first to offer moral support. He also helped to establish Martin Publishing, which published the Cherokee Times.
He's served the U.S. in war time, both in Korea and Vietnam, which means he understands what it means to be an American as well as the ideals upon which this country was founded. He's been working much of the time with BalsamWest trying to expand high speed internet access in western North Carolina.
While I may have certain differences of opinion here and there with Don, he's a true man of integrity who can bring professional and ethical leadership as well as real world business sense to Painttown, something that's sorely needed right now.
I'm proud to know this man, and urge all who live in Painttown to vote for him. He certainly has my endorsement.
