Letter: Campaign Funds Could Solve Woes  After watching the
evening news, I hang my head in shame. The two people wanting to
be president of this nation have amassed funds of $85 million
and $76 million, with reserves of more than $83 million. And
yet, any morning I drive down Sixth Street, I see homeless
people milling around and people lining up for a sack lunch. I
hear and read about local food banks being near empty. Children
having to get backpacks with food for the weekends. I read page
after page of foreclosures daily. Someone explain what’s wrong
with that picture. I’m tired of seeing politics and politicians
hurting the people they are professing to help and protect.
