Guest guest Posted June 17, 2004 Report Share Posted June 17, 2004 If he get anywhere near Texas I will vote for him. Jim URGENT MESSAGE : For Pennsylvania Activists. We Need Your Help ! Dear friends, If you reside in the great state of Pennsylvania, please take one minute and call 877-786-9122, and place your vote for Mack, the SSRI-Crusader who is in the running for the reality TV show " American Candidate " . Have you heard of the " American Candidate " contest? It's a production of the cable program Showtime. You can read all about it on this link: http://www.americancandidate.com/home.php Here's an excerpt: " AMERICAN CANDIDATE will attempt to identify one individual who has the qualifications and qualities to be President of the United States. This summer, AMERICAN CANDIDATE will debut with 12 contestants from all walks of life. Over the course of 10 weeks, those 12 will face-off against each other in a series of challenges designed to test their presidential mettle and to show viewers what really goes on in the making of a presidential candidate. Week-by-week, the original pool of candidates will be winnowed down. The final episode will be a showdown between the remaining two candidates, and one person will emerge victorious -- the " American Candidate " Okay. So, what does this have to do with the SSRI war? Well, let me tell you! Sheriff Mack testified before the FDA advisory panel in February. He wants the drug firms to be held accountable for failing to warn the public about the very real dangers of antidepressants and other psychiatric drugs. And, now he is in the running for the American Candidate. He won the NH primary yesterday! oooo!!!! Now, we need our Pennsylvania friends to make sure he takes the primary in your state! You can read the testimony he presented before the FDA advisory panel on this link: http://www.fda.gov/ohrms/dockets/ac/04/transcripts/4006T1.htm He was speaker number 35. Here's his testimony for those of you who don't want to search through the link above: Number 35, please. Mack MR. MACK: My name is Mack. I am a retired law enforcement officer and sheriff from Arizona. My expertise in that field was juvenile delinquency, school violence, and narcotics investigations. My first experience with SSRIs was when I was a parent of a second grader, my wife and I were called into the school, our son had a problem staying in his chair. What was the government school's answer? Drug your son into submission, so he will stay in his chair. We refused and we thank God now that we did. Our son turned out just fine, played basketball, baseball, and excelled at school and sports. I was a sheriff of a small community in Arizona. We had an abnormal amount of high rate of suicide and teen violence. I am just an investigator, I just present the facts. One thing that we could not ignore was the circumstantial evidence that the common denominator in all of these cases was the victims or perpetrators were on SSRIs. In investigating these events, it became quite commonplace for all of us to ask the same question as we got to the next event of horrified and traumatized people and families. You have heard from many of them today. Some people don't have the adverse reaction to these drugs, some do. I learned the same with LSD when I investigated that as an undercover narcotics officer. I can only say that the evidence is mounting over and over as did our investigations. We cannot, as law enforcement officials, ignore such circumstantial evidence. I doubt very seriously if you could either. I am an advocate for state's rights and I do believe that if the FDA fails to take action, the state and local authorities will have to. Thank you. DR. RUDORFER: Thank you. ============================================================================ If he is selected as the " American Candidate " , he'll be allowed to give a " State of the Union " address on national television, and we have every reason to believe he'll address this world-wide antidepressant problem because of his own experience.. He brought home three of his own friends home in body bags when he was serving as Sheriff in Arizona. (all had committed suicide, and all had been taking antidepressants). I attended a rally here in Utah about a week ago and he addressed the problem with these SSRIS in his campaign address on that occasion. He even brought in Dr Ann Blake , the author and International Director for Drug Awareness (http://www.drugawareness.org), and graciously turned over some of his " on air " time so she could speak on this issue. An entire TV crew was present, and they got all of this on film! So please - all of you in Pennsylvania - PLEASE take just a moment and call this toll free number: 877-786-9122, and place your vote for Sheriff Mack as your choice for our American Candidate! Please be sure to forward this to all your friends and family members who live in Pennsylvania too! This would be a great opportunity for us - to have someone as committed to our cause as is Mack! Here's Sheriff Mack's link where you can read about other issues that make up his platform: http://www.americancandidate.com/candidate_homepage.php?id=40 Thanks for your support!
