| Hello Sacramentans, My name is Dave Lynch and I would like to be your Congressional representative for 2008 in Sacramento and Washington D.C. I have a vision of Sacramento as the most desirable place to live in the United States; modern with homage to the past, energy efficient, fun, colorful, clean and affordable. With improved health care, affordable education, efficient and safe public transportation, improved roadway grid, better law enforcement, and with a healthy dose of collective inspiration the future looks bright. Together we can make Sacramento a working example of the best America has to offer in 21st Century living. As an Independent candidate, I will do my best to see all viewpoints and bring us to the same table so we may truly create the American dream. |
Please take a moment to watch the above videos:
1) The State of the Union: what I have seen and why I
am running. I call it survival.
2) My ideas and thoughts on what we can do.

Yes we can!

Here are some of the local and national issues I would like
to address. See "The Issues" for more:
1. Health Care: No US citizen should have to be without it,
and it should be affordable to everyone! Expanding the
Medicare system as an alternative to overly expensive, and
evasive privatized health care can bring the cost of care
down significantly. Both Congressman Dennis Kucinich and
Michael Moore have excellent ideas on this. A single payer system
costs us all less, but it must be managed wisely. It appears the
"evil doers" at Guantanimo get health care, why not us?
2. College Education: A college education should not crush our
young citizens and families with huge debt. An educated and kind
society is a successful one.
3. Transportation: Improving national rail systems, as well
as making improvements on our local Light Rail, would aid in
reducing roadway traffic. Fulfilling the extension of the Light Rail
to Sacramento International Airport and remaining outlying areas
of Sacramento County would provide a fuel conserving alternative
for the daily commuters of this area. Pursuing electric, and other
energy source vehicle technologies, should be on our
agenda. Bicycle access improvement would be great. Not only in
Sacramento, but nationally as well. Providing bicycle lock-up
racks and having stricter penalties for bicycle theft would
encourage cycling as an alternative mode of transportation. I've
been a cyclist all my life. It promotes good health and is very
economical!
4. The War: Ending this Middle East conflict is critical.
Terrorism has been around since the beginning of time,
and is a conflict of primarily religious ideals. With all the
great minds in this community and country, I am sure we
can come up with a better plan than is currently in place for
a quick and mutually beneficial outcome. Everyone on
Earth deserves a safe and warm home, a job to go to, and
a place to raise their family without fear. The core of
conflict is obvious, and the resolution possible.
Then we can use the talent of our defense contractors to
build high speed trains, more efficient aircraft, ships and
spacecraft, bridges and all our modern infrastructure
needs.
5. Our Levee System: The Katrina disaster should have
been a wake-up call for Sacramento. A lot of hard work has been
done here by current representative Matsui, and
Governor Schwarzenegger; however, the system is still in
need of work. Perhaps bringing in the levee and dam
engineers of the Netherlands to help us master our
waterways would be beneficial. There is controversy over
the taxation of home owners in the flood plain area to fund
additional levee work; however, I believe the residents were
assured at the time of purchasing their homes, that the levee
system was sufficient. This hardly seems fair. Though building in
a flood plain is a known risk regardless. See

Envisioning Futures for the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta
_____________________________________________________
I had been registered as a Democrat for all of my life, though my
father is Republican, and mom, unknown. At some point both my
father and I recognized that both parties play the American
citizens like “good cop/bad cop” and occasionally switch roles so
they don’t get too much in a rut.
Personally I don’t see how that helps us as we struggle to survive
under more and more restrictive laws, a failing economy,
overpriced housing, our industries leaving for foreign shores,
corporate theft, and our Constitution being stripped of our civil
rights by this administration and their no bid contract interests.
Recently, I switched from a lifetime as a registered Democrat to
Independent; no Party affiliation. I want to be able to speak my
mind freely, to be able to bring our thoughts and suggestions to
the national table without being forced to tow the “Party” line.
THAT, to me, is what Democracy is about.
I will try to summarize here some of my thoughts on a number of
issues, tell you something about me, and why I am motivated to
run for this very public and very demanding position.
Please keep in mind, my primary reason for all of this is; I love this
country, I love the people here (except for the murderers, rapists,
bullies or otherwise “evil doers”) and I really think I can be a strong
and influential voice for positive change and growth towards a
prosperous, healthier and more enjoyable society.
A few (?) basics on my background:
I was born in Texas while my pop was in the Army and my mom
endured the heat and scorpions. Not long afterward, the new
Lynch Family moved to the New York area where my sister was
born. I spent my elementary years being a modeler, artist and
budding guitarist before moving up to New England for my Jr. and
High School years.
As a very young man, I was a futurist. I was building cities with
maple blocks and Lincoln Logs from the time I was a toddler.
Walter Cronkite’s show in the 60’s “The 21st Century” fascinated
me. My Boy Scout experience taught me a bit about survival,
working as a team, tool use and provided access to information
about the world, nature and harnessing my mechanical and
communication skills.
When in the 6th grade, I entered the science fair at my school,
Pittsfield High, and won with a design of a “City Of The Future”
complete with above ground inter-skyscraper mass transit, lots of
farmland, and micro communities with many workplace's and
schools being easily accessible without the need of a car. This city
included solar and other sources of power, and a huge host of
other details. See the attached photos. My vision has stayed with
me to this day.
I became much more keenly aware of our world and it’s politics
when, at the age of 6, President John F. Kennedy, who promised
to put a man on the moon and return him home safely, was
assassinated right here in the safety of my own country, on live
television. I realized then that sometimes the bad guys looked just
like the good guys. The violence of this was a shock to me and
made me reevaluate my personal and families safety.
While going about my life, pursuing music, art and other interests,
I kept one eye on the political scene and the other on my chosen
path, which I found consoling, and soothing as well as a shield
from the emotional violence of our time.
This path was in music. Though I was mostly self taught, I was
proficient enough to play professionally by the time I was 15 years
of age. At 17, I was briefly married to my high school sweetheart
and moved to Salt Lake City, but it ended shortly as we chose
different paths. California was in my sights, and I arrived in March
of 1976, where I took work as a guitar repair apprentice under
Gary Cooper, creator of Oasis Guitars, at Lew’s Music on K Street.
Several years passed, and in need of further my musical skills, I
enrolled in City College of Sacramento where I made Presidents
Honors two of my four semesters before attending the Berklee
College of Music in Boston.
I returned to Sacramento where I have worked as a professional
musician and instrument repair technician for over 30 years.
Additionally, I was regional manager of the Central California and
Northern Nevada territory for St. Louis Music, the fifth largest
independently owned music manufacturer/distributior in the US,
showing record growth under my tenure.
I have owned and operated my own business, Guitar Workshop,
for nearly 11 of these past years, employ two instrument
technicians, provide space for 7 teachers and 200 students, and
occasionally conduct our East Sacramento Guitar Orchestra. In
summery, I have serviced the musical community in Sacramento
for most of my life.
Because of our terrific fans, my group received two Sammie
Awards, 1992 and 1993, for Best Jazz Musician, with
drummer/composer Rich DeFazio and bassist/composer Gordon
Hanley, made contributions, when possible, to our local KXJZ
station, public and private area schools, as well as contributions to
The Susan G. Komen Foundation through Blues for the Cure,
where I and several of my musician friends donated our time and
recordings to raise awareness and funds for the fight against
breast cancer.
Over the years, I have had the opportunity to see much of the
United States, parts of Canada, Mexico, and briefly, Moscow, as
the Cold War and conflict, American involvement in the beginnings
of industrial trade, post Romanov, intrigued me into learning about
world politics.
I’ve been through very difficult times; endured the interracial
conflicts (kids fighting on the buses and in the schools) while
growing up in New York in the '60's, The assassinations of Robert
Kennedy and Martin Luther King, I realized that one who speaks
about justice and freedom and are truly sincere are at extremely
great risk. To stay silent is foolish. I still like New Hampshire's
motto,
" Live Free or Die"...trying... I would like to believe, was supposed
to be that last word, but there wasn't enough room on the license
plate.
While finding my way through life I had my bike stolen while
attending a geology class at Sacramento City College, I've been
robbed at gunpoint while working a night job in Boston while
attending Berklee College of Music, I've been trampled upon,
unintentionally, recreationally and professionally (yes, I was
offered a paid spot in the HBO Documentary Cathouse 2, episode
7, No Sex Please, where I was indeed trampled by 5 lovely ladies...
skeletons? Oh tons...where do we start?! See HBO TVGuide for
the synopsis, scroll down). I've survived reasonably well as a
professional musician and tech, and worked honestly and
tirelessly in the difficult entertainment and service industry. I've
always managed to enjoy the ride wherever the road took me
while contributing to my neighborhood and to my community in
general.
While enjoying the humble success of my small business, I
traveled to Moscow, a historically fascinating city I have longed to
visit, where I met a delightfully charming woman whom I fell in love
with and eventually married, only to have the whole thing go
painfully and terribly wrong when the plans and agreements we
made with each other became yesterday’s news after the papers
were signed. It was brutally tragic and emotionally crushing for us
both but great and valuable lessons were learned. Life is humbling.
I am not a lawyer, but respect and follow the law as it's what holds
us together, defines what trust or truth is when it seems vague. I
love history as it provides me with perspective on human behavior.
My experience as a small business owner and community member,
I believe, qualifies me to run for this office as a citizen with
perspective.
At my shop on J Street, my door is open for anyone who needs
assistance or has questions. As your representative, it will also be
open. Regular town hall meetings should and must be scheduled if
we are to have any meaningful, shared dialog between the citizens
of Sacramento’s District 5 and Washington D.C.
From my first days as a Sacramento citizen, I felt this was a place
where great dreams would be fulfilled. We are in an ideal location
between San Francisco and the Foothills as well as Lake Tahoe.
There is so much potential for our burgeoning city to become a
model of economic growth, modern green technology, in our
architecture and our public as well private transportation.
It is within our grasp to see Sacramento become the City of the
Future, a model of country, suburban and urban living that reflects
the best in both old and new world lifestyles?
We have the potential to tap into a vast geothermal system found
all over the State, as well as wind, solar and the up and coming
Hydrogen power. There is also the development of a whole new
generation of totally electric, longer distance, high performance
automobiles based on the Lithium-Ion battery as is being
developed at Tesla Motors right here in California, see www.
teslamotors.com.
While still out of financial reach of the general population, the
research and development done now will help bring the cost within
reach.
Our future here in Sacramento is only limited by our dreams and
our ability to get the funding we need to become a national leader
in urban/sub-urban development.

system was sufficient. This hardly seems fair. Though building in
a flood plain is a known risk regardless. See

Even as a young kid, I was
dreaming of the future. In the 6th
Grade I won the Pittsfield High
School Science fair with a Model
City where I had considered high
rises to protect precious farmland,
the interiors were complete
communities, public transportation
was inter-building, above ground
and everything was powered by
sunlight and geothermal heat;
geothermal being a heat source
found in many places just under the
fractured crust sections/fault lines of
the Earth, as in areas like Mono
Lake, the Napa Valley, Arizona,
Yellowstone and more.

Improving our national rail
service would help reduce truck
traffic to some degree, reducing
highway accidents, while
simultaneously reducing road
repair costs and insurance
costs/claims.
Additionally, if we look to the
same high speed MagLev systems
now being deployed throughout
Japan and Germany, we could
reduce our need for fossil fuels
while decreasing our travel time,
perhaps beginning with a
Sacramento, San Francisco, LA,
Las Vegas run, with later legs
extending into other areas of the
State.

Perhaps we could use the experience of
these engineers to assist us on building
our water protection systems?

first plans. Click

In the news 6-11-07:
"They can have their votes
of no confidence, but it's
not going to make the
determination about who
serves in my government,"
Bush said in Sofia.
Mr. President, it is not
"YOUR" government, it
belongs to all the citizens of
the United States of America.
This is why I have no
confidence in your
administration; you forgot
who you work for.
I urge congress, support
H.Res. 333, and follow up!

This is the hardest part. I am going to do
everything I can to win this election, but only if
you feel I am the right candidate. I will also do my
best to use as little money as possible, in that end
I am completely conservative, but elections are
not free, so, your campaign contribution would be
very helpful as I will need assistance doing this,
and ad space costs money. Yes, I need a treasurer
and campaign manager also!
If you wish to contribute, just mail your check to:

Though the sky was
radiant blue and my
spirit high, this day for
me was much too hot,
and the pack much too
heavy that summer on
humid Long Island; but
my experiences in the
Boy Scouts taught me
very valuable lessons I
carry within me to this
day. The motto and
mission still resonates
in my heart.

Could this be the future of
commercial passenger

Boeing's vision!
American vision and
inventiveness at it's finest!

Recently I rode with my
friend Tim in Marin County
up the coast headlands from
the Presideo.
Maintaining our roadways
and highways is a top priority
to ensure public safety and
successful commerce.
Safe bike ways through our
community is a big part of a
friendly, successful and
healthy village.

San Francisco, October 27, 12:30 pm,
as I marched on market street I was
amazed at the range of age among my
fellow protesters.
This is the America I love, those who
work for peace, not war.
Throw out the War President.
There are those that think we want to
lose the war on terror, that we don't
honor our soldiers or military, that
groups like Move On don't care about
success. They could not be more
wrong or further from the truth.
"War Crimes" have been committed by
irresponsible members of our
government and those who can not see
the bigger picture, and have been
blinded by the Bush/Cheney lies.
We will defeat terrorism, we just will not
do it with mass murder or preemptive
attacks.
It is wrong, it is immoral and it is
illegal. If those individuals elected to
defend us from harm can not do so
within the boundaries of the law,
considering the worldwide support for
ending terrorism and the technology
available to do so, then there is
another agenda at play.
Those that put down or denounce the
peace movement, or what they call the
radical left, probably have their hearts
in the "right" direction, but it is just
misguided.
Peace in the Middle East will not
come from War, only death will come
from war.
In business, it is never good to kill ones
potential customers. In life it is never
good to kill ones potential friends,
allies or family.
We must reach out and end this
conflict now.
Impeach this administration and let's
end the war in Iraq.
We have a great group of Retired
Generals in the wings who might lend
us a hand given the chance, with the
right leadership.

My dear friends, As I
continually watch and
listen to the candidates
for this election, I have
found myself hoping for
the best Democrat to
win, but after hearing
Bill Ricardson endorse
Barack Obama, I must
look at him more
closely...I'll keep you
posted!
