National Vietnam & Gulf War Veterans Coalition Endorses Alan Fine

The National Vietnam & Gulf War Veterans Coalition endorsed Alan Fine.  The Coalition comprises nearly 100 veterans groups and veteran's advocacy groups representing over 300,000 veterans and their family members, totaling over 2 million voters.

Alan's positions on veterans' issues, border security and terrorism were complemented.  Moreover, they expressed appreciation to Alan for his willingness to support those who have answered our nation's call to duty.

Alan's father flew 22 missions in World War II as the pilot of a B24 Liberator.  On the side of his plane, he painted Alan's mother.  Before he passed away, he provided a picture of himself standing in front of his plane to Alan and said that it was his inheritance.

He told Alan, "I love your mother, I love this country, always stand up for what is right!"

"Instead of gloating over Minneapolis crime stats, he’s busy promoting remedies." Lori Sturdevant, Columnist, Minneapolis StarTribune, June 18, 2006

I am respectfully asking for your support to represent you in the U.S. House.  I am running because these are serious times and we need strong and true representation that is prepared to listen to your concerns, act responsibly and lead with strength and dignity.  We need leaders of good conscience who are willing to work in a bi-partisan fashion, and who are dedicated to an equitable balance within the 5^th District, the state of Minnesota, our country and our world.

As your representative, I will serve with integrity, with common sense, with heart and with passion.  I will work hard to build community and protect the rights of every citizen, protect the environment, build a more peaceful world, ensure that the government is spending your tax dollars wisely, and support economic growth.  I will bring good conscience and the voice of Minnesota to our nation’s capital.
