My name is Jared Pixley. After watching Trump’s first, disastrous term and now the start of his second, even worse term, I have decided that someone needs to step up and fix the damage done to this country. I am willing to be that man, so I am tossing my hat into the ring as an independent candidate. Likely, I will just be a write in candidate, so don’t be surprised if you don’t find my name on the ballot in 2028, you can just write me in.
Politically, I am moderate on some issues and conservative on others. Mostly, I am a centrist. I hope to be a bridge between the two parties as they are constantly getting further and further apart.
I have worked minimum and low paying jobs for most of my life, though I have run a Taco Bell briefly. I have also worked as a waiter and in a potato factory. For the last six years, I have worked in an Emergency Room at a middle of nowhere hospital. I am not rich, nor am I career politician, so I believe that gives me an advantage over everyone else. I am in touch with the working class Americans because I am one. Trump claims to be a billionaire who avoided paying any taxes, Mitt Romney who ran for president against Obama is a millionaire, Biden was in Congress longer than I’ve been alive and owned three homes when he went to the White House. That is not me. I work for a living. And I will take those working class values to the White House.
My platform has three main points.
First, make the rich pay their fair taxes. By ended the Trump era tax cuts on the wealthy, the Congressional Budget Office estimates we could generate about $600 billion dollars. It might be even more since Trump’s big bill gives them even more tax cuts.
Second, heath care for all. The US is one of the few first world countries that does not give everyone health care. People from Canada and Europe do not want to immigrate here because they do not want to lose their health care. Insurance is a for profit business. They make their money by not paying for your care.
Third, improve education. Our country’s average reading level is 4th grade and it has been getting worse over the years. People no longer know how to do arithmetic. We need to improve our schools and help people develop critical thinking skills. The only way to make sure we save our democracy is by ensuring that we have an educated voter base.
