Editor,

This is a challenge to all the pessimists who are doing their best to manipulate my Tribal Council candidate campaign. You know who you are, so read this with great acknowledgement.

To solve this problem and bring all the negativity to a head, I invite all of you that have a problem with me running for Tribal Council to come forth to prove your allegations that you think you have against me, and I’ll expose you for what you are. Everything that you people have posted, said behind my back, and discussed with your bar-room cronies; your talk is nothing but harmful fiction, why can’t you state the facts? 

What I mean is face-to-face discussion, not behind my back. Present your evidence. Be responsible for your actions. Own up to your allegations. Stop the BS. Do you have proof? If so, bring it, because I have all the proof I need to stop all criticisms and your attempts to undermine or discredit my campaign.

A community built on lies is easily corrupted. I expect more for my people. I’m willing to bring clarity to the allegations once and for all, for you will not mar my name with the Tribal Membership any longer. I have the records of the Mission Valley Speedway and the S&K Marina and all the other enterprises I have administrated with the Tribe.

Can you handle the truth? Bring your buddies with you. Let the voters judge the source. Let’s discuss this in front of the voting membership, the ones that really count. The present issues facing the Confederated Salish-Kootenai Tribes demand clear thinking and dynamic leadership, not backbiters like you.

The only mismanagement I see around here is your willingness to fool voters with accusations of no foundation. You talk-the-talk, now back it up.

The Tribes do not need this internal conflict any more than the greater community that surrounds us. Stand and be responsible.

See you at the Ronan Indian Senior Citizen Center on Friday, Dec. 13 at 6:30 p.m.
