Boys, Girls… or To Be Determined?

By Dennis Brent Melby

If you don’t know what sex you are, the Democrats want you as their leader.

To be appointed to the recent vacancy of the MoCo Democrats' Central Committee you must state whether you’re a female or you identify as something called "trans-gender" or "non-binary"! They have positions that can only be filled by specific sexes…or apparently no sex, but you must declare. If it weren’t against the US Constitution, they’d also have numbers reserved for skin color – or race if you prefer. They’ve already gotten rid of their very popular co-Vice Chair of the National Democratic Party, crazy left winger David Hogg just this way, by enforcing non-binary preferences for “gender diversity.” They apparently think their voters would choose wrongly without these restrictions. Republicans beg to differ.

To serve on, and be elected or appointed to the Republican Central Committee you simply must be a registered Republican voter in Montgomery County. We don’t ask your skin color, your gender, your age, your religion, your marital status, your orientation, your profession, your income or level of education.  We let the voters decide. And they do a darned good job.

Somehow the Democrats' fears have never materialized in our Party. Yes, sometimes there are more females than males, more young than old, more blue collar than white collar…but it all evens out in the end. We get folks who care about their communities and their neighbors – want to preserve our democracy and pass a strong, safe community on to the future generation. Our leaders care about freedom and good government.

To go even further, if a candidate is elected by the voters, they get to serve. Of course there's no hate here - if you're suffering from gender dysphoria we think you should get the help, counseling and understanding you desperately need.

If you’d like to serve as a Republican leader drop me a line. The filing deadline is in February to get on the ballot. Let’s chat. We need to return a little normalcy to MoCo. You just might be the one to help us do it!
