We're looking for a few good people to help energize the Eastern Shore GOP.
Have you ever gotten that frustrated feeling that our political leaders are not really listening...that they do not really care what we think and what is important to us?
What new job opportunity do you have on the Eastern Shore today? Why are our Teachers the worst paid in the region? What is being done to improve safety on Route 13 / Lankford Highway?
My name is Melody Scalley. I am not a professional politician. I'm self employed with 20 years experience in founding and running several businesses on the Eastern Shore. During the last few years I started to pay more attention to politics, and came to the conclusion that the problems we have long faced in our area are not getting much better and that no one in the political world is listening... I mean really listening. And so I decided to run as the Republican nominee for the House of Delegates because I believe in individual rights, smaller government, lower taxes and that democracy can work better than the spectacle we are currently witnessing in Richmond and Washington, D.C.
I look back over the past few years and I do not see sufficient new quality jobs coming to our area despite years of cheerful political rhetoric.
We can improve job opportunities here AND protect the environment.
We're smart enough to do that.
" More Government regulations, higher taxes at every turn...it's time to end this spending spree and hold Government accountable!
That's our money they are spending. It is the future of our children and our grand children they are stealing! Government is supposed to work for US - we are not supposed to work for the Government!" Melody Scalley

Common Sense: I am not a politician ~ The principles I will fight for are Constitutional principles and the values I embrace are the values our Founders embraced. If I were to summarize these I would give you a list of 9 principles and 12 values:
The 9 Principles
1.
America Is Good.
2.
I believe in God and He is the Center of my Life.
God "The propitious smiles of Heaven can never be expected on a nation that disregards the eternal rules of order and right which Heaven itself has ordained." from George Washington's first Inaugural address.
3.
I must always try to be a more honest person than I was yesterday.
Honesty "I hope that I shall always possess firmness and virtue enough to maintain what I consider to be the most enviable of all titles, the character of an honest man." George Washington
4.
The family is sacred. My spouse and I are the ultimate authority, not the government.
Marriage/Family "It is in the love of one's family only that heartfelt happiness is known. By a law of our nature, we cannot be happy without the endearing connections of a family." Thomas Jefferson
5.
If you break the law you pay the penalty. Justice is blind and no one is above it.
Justice "I deem one of the essential principles of our government equal and exact justice to all men of whatever state or persuasion, religious or political." Thomas Jefferson
6.
I have a right to life, liberty and pursuit of happiness, but there is no guarantee of equal results.
Life, Liberty, & The Pursuit of Happiness "Everyone has a natural right to choose that vocation in life which he thinks most likely to give him comfortable subsistence." Thomas Jefferson
7.
I work hard for what I have and I will share it with who I want to. Government cannot force me to be charitable.
Charity "It is not everyone who asketh that deserveth charity; all however, are worth of the inquiry or the deserving may suffer." George Washington
8.
It is not un-American for me to disagree with authority or to share my personal opinion.
On your right to disagree "In a free and republican government, you cannot restrain the voice of the multitude; every man will speak as he thinks, or more properly without thinking." George Washington
9.
The government works for me. I do not answer to them, they answer to me.
Who works for whom? "I consider the people who constitute a society or a nation as the source of all authority in that nation." Thomas Jefferson
The 12 Values
* Honesty
* Reverence
* Hope
* Thrift
* Humility
* Charity
* Sincerity
* Moderation
* Hard Work
* Courage
* Personal Responsibility
* Gratitude
