FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
ATTENTION
Republican Presidential Candidate Andy Martin holds a Palm Beach news conference today, Thursday, May 26th to launch his Florida campaign with an attack on his opponents as “wimps” who are afraid to lead congress
Martin says the “Corwin Catastrophe” should have been a wakeup call for Beltway Republicans, but wasn’t.
Martin says he is the only “
Martin says he would fix Medicare and Social Security and avoid the drastic cuts proposed by other Republicans
“Presidents are elected to lead,” Martin says, “not to follow congress.”

“We have seen the first test of leadership this week, and my opponents have all failed the test,” Martin says. “Like helpless puppies they have submitted to the Beltway theocracy that wants to gradually eliminate Social Security and Medicare.
“I am the only presidential candidate running an ad supporting Medicare and Social Security. (The ad is attached to this release). We produced our TV commercial early in May. We didn’t have to wait for the
“First, I support the repeal of Obamacare. It doesn’t work and will bankrupt the
“Second, I oppose the provisions of Obamacare that establish a de facto death panel and raid social security for half a trillion dollars.
“Third, along with both Republicans and responsible Democrats I know that we have to make adjustments to these programs. I will work on a bipartisan basis to adopt reforms which enjoy the support of the American people.
“Fourth, I acknowledge what Republicans do not: Social Security and Medicare strike a special chord in the American people because no one can escape old age. Old age is an affliction that all of us will face. Rich or poor, good or bad, we all grow old.
“As a little boy, I watched as my elders grappled with the illness and death of relatives. Later, it was my duty to supervise medical care, plan funerals and assess the impact of government programs as I filled out the paperwork. I don't know how many of my opponents have had similar experiences but if not they have no place dictating to the American people with reform schemes that fly in the face of human reality. Not political reality, human reality.
“We all grow old, and in the lottery of life some of us lose the capacity to care for ourselves earlier than others. My mother is 93; thanks to drug companies—who are unfortunately the target of relentless propaganda attacks from the Democrats—she is a healthy 93 and lives on her own. Her signature is clearer than mine. She is a lucky one.
“I am also a lucky one. I got through life without health insurance. Thankfully I didn’t need it. But I have friends that are now dependent on Medicare and Social Security, and I do not plan to abandon them to the ‘marketplace.’ Some of them could not make it on their own.
“Some Americans are incapacitated in their 60’s or 70’s. No one knows what God has in store for us. It’s in the Bible. So providing collectively for the ultimate end of all of us individually is not a bad idea.
“Are Medicare and Social Security perfect? No they are not. We can make adjustments, and we can make modifications. I will announce my reform plan at the next candidates’ debate. As a University of Illinois-trained economist with a specialty in consumer sampling and survey research I know what people want and what they do not feel will work for them.
“I support the articulated goals of the Republican Party; I take them at their word that they want to preserve Medicare (and Social Security). But we have to arrive at those goals other than by telling people who are old and ill that they have to ‘shop’ for insurance or investment advice.
“Recently, I was compelled to clobber some idiotic Republicans in
“The national leadership of the Republican Party is incompetent and delusional. They campaigned in 2010 on a plan to reverse the Obama raid on Medicare, and then turned around in 2011 and proposed raiding Medicare themselves. They took Jane Corwin and turned her into a sacrificial lamb. Fortunately, the Republican Party is very good on defense; they are excellent at unwinding Democratic Party overreaching. Unfortunately, Republicans are very weak on offense. Every time they try to implement their own ideas, they fumble. I will do both.
