How Government Overreach Threatens Our Families--A Conversation with Congressional Candidate Emily Berge
from Walter Rhein Podcast · host Walter Rhein, Nick Paro, and Emily Berge
Hello Everybody,This is the second conversation I had with Emily Berge. She’s one of the candidates running for the seat currently occupied by Derrick Van Orden. We’re joined by Nick Paro to help ensure that candidates like Emily get as much visibility as possible.We are in an era of new media. It’s wonderful to have this opportunity to talk directly to our future representatives. I think one of the main problems in our society is that our elected officials end up getting separated from their constituents. This leaves them out of touch and unaware of the challenges we face.I’ve had the opportunity to talk to Emily several times. She’s heard my concerns and she’s helped me to see what local government is doing to ensure the safety of my family. I appreciate that very much. I would love to see a new era of government where it was common for representatives to come on shows like mine and talk to real people. Emily Berge is walking the walk, and getting to meet candidates like her gives me a lot of hope.You can learn more about her campaign here: Bergeforcongress.comIf you want to know more about Emily, here’s the first interview I did with her:Thank you Steward Beckham, Karl Tame, Natasha K., Dannys, Ms. H, and many others for tuning into my live video with Emily Berge and Nick Paro!
