Never Quit Fighting My Advocacy Journey

My Friends Our Nation is Going through some major changes now . The reason The Trump Presidency to be. Many Changes will happen. Changes that will affect All Our Lives.Changes in Health Care Income and The Environment Will happen. And They May Be Devastating to The Poor and Vulnerable. But Today i Come to you to inspire You. To Not Cave but to Fight The Good Fight. I Hope to Inspire You With A Story- My Story on becoming an Advocate or As some say Activist. I have been called both. i now prefer Advocate. Because i advocate for Causes on Social Media.

My Advocacy Journey began in 1986 when i got sick with Asthma.i didn’t protest but suffered in Silence Uninsured. I had Hope One day i would have Healthcare. I made A Promise to myself that i would help All to be Insured someday. That happened in the 1990’s after Healthcare Failed. As A College student a few years earlier i did papers on Civil Rights. This would play A Role in My Journey later on. As Would My Faith in God. I am A Christian.

I wasn’t active in any cause. But i did Vote. But in 2010 Things Changed for Me I was frustrated with the direction of the City i was living in Ocala Fl. So i wrote letters to the local Newspaper : The Ocala Star Banner. Then the ACA Affordable Care Act (ObamaCare) Passed. I was elated. As i started before in My Blog My Healthcare Journey i am disabled and needed answers for an Eye Problem. I had no job and had a hard time geting one. i was taking care of My Disabled Father. I wrote President Obama for help. We Relocated From Ocala Fl to Miami Gardens Fl. I went to Vocational Rehabilitation. Saw an Eye Doctor and Psychological Evaluation was done. Plus another Psychological Evaluation by Nova Southeastern University. Both said see a Neuro Opthamologist. At Bascom Palmer Eye Institute – Miami Fl.i needed to find a job.

It was recommended i use a Computer i had no Computer..I was also told to Use Facebook to get a job.Soon I got a Tablet and later a Phone. Both from Samsung. I was a skeptic of Social Media.I believed alot of the bad misconceptions, without ever using it. But boy would i see how WRONG I WAS and that , it can change lives. Particularly my life. So in 2013 I joined Facebook and then Twitter. I couldn’t work because of My eye problem. But I learned Facebook and Twitter well. This would help me later on.

I got sick and couldn’t talk for 2 weeks. It sucked. But it motivated me to Fight for Healthcare if needed. As Florida did not #ExpandMedicaidNow. I was tweeting and Posting the Ed Show on MSNBC. I voiced My Displeasure with Local Issues.Miami Dade County Mayor Carlos Gimenez was a frequent person of my criticism. He Closed Fire Houses and Closed Libraries to save money.

In August of 2013 I watched The 50Th Anniversary of The Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. “I Have A Dream” Speech. They asked :” What Will You Do To Advance the Dream ? ”

i said via Twitter : I Would Be A Voice For The Voiceless.

My Dedication to #CivilRights hy .Having MLK as One of My Hero’s Who would Inspire Me To Also Hear The Call To Serve. As I Believe Across To Healthcare is Both A Civil Rights and Human Rights Issue.

That Weekend in Church The Pastor on Our Video Screen said He wanted Christians in Government. i felt the Call to Serve.i always wanted to help others. Soon My Chance would come. I got home opened My Email. Got a Petition from Move on. i got my Chance to Fight For Healthcare.

My Goal for the Petition was 1 Million Signers to Represent The 1 Million Uninsured in Fl. But it wouldn’t be easy.I almost quit as i got 19 Signers in 1 month. I was a novice boy did i have alot to learn.

Good did happen i started my First Facebook page : Please Sign My Petition to help Expand Medicaid in Fl. Then with my @FredChristian3 Twitter account i Got A Tweet on TV on The EdShow. :

“My Governor Could Care Less If I Get Healthcare ”

i was elated and would get several Tweets and Posts on Air till the shows cancellation in 2015. Thank you Ed Schulz I appreciate it. I wish you would have interviewed me though on being Uninsured in Fl.. But I did get interviewed by Patricia Bourns of The Miami Herald. I was pleased and Share the article to this day. Thank you Ms Bourns you helped alot.

But the Petition was stalled at 20 Signers i was going to quit.I was so frustrated i locked Myself out of My Twitter acct.and I. was going nowhere with this. But then I joined Facebook Groups. A msn named Barry Sensa and His Friend Robin Conrad became mentors to me. Thank You Both I appreciate it. We All Championed the cause of Medicaid Expansion. Soon I got signers.We Founded The Page People Suffering due to republicans refusal to expand Medicaid. I got another small Victory too i created a new Twitter account @FredChristian10 which i use today. Plus that March I Finally got the courage to Post a Personal Post to Facebook. It would be My Healthcare Journey which would later become My Healthcare Journey Pre and Post Petition The Blog.I wrore other Posts that year. i Love to Write, and Talk and later on Those skills would come in handy.

But Soon I needed a new direction and Founded #ExpandMedicaidNow First as A # to Use on edshow, and Twitter.Then it became a Facebook page and group. My First page failed but i was determined not to let this one fail. I couldn’t fail i had to.be the Voice For The Voiceless on #ExpandMedicaidNow. The petition stalled again. One Group member threatened to kill me if I posted it. I almost quit. But a talented Facebook artist talked me out of it. I even Got Trolled by Gun Nuts for helping Moms Demand Action For Gun Sense In America over Open Carry in Target Stores. I was angry and No Way was i quitting !

I even did a Medicaid Expansion event on Facebook. We did get noticed by Facebook. Soon i eneded My Petition with 2,200 Signers in One Year. I was disgusted again but definitely NOT QUITTING !! I Finally was Convinced Social Media Could #Impact Positive Change .
In January 2015 Things got alot better I met a Mom Amy Rodriguez who had a sick Daughter Genesis Rodriguez. Soon Amy would educate me on How to Really Advocate. As i wanted Genesis to Live. Pictured Below Amy Rodriguez Gen Rodriguez.

Soon I was told and realized that good as My Facebook Posts were They didn’t reach enough people. So i became a Blogger and Also created More Facebook pages and groups Issues We Face, Team Blue ,and Random Thoughts The Blog By Disabled Social Media Activist Fred Christian.

i wrote on Amy Rodriguez and Gen Rodriguez to try to help save her life. It was and Is a Labor of Love.

in between Two Friends who are Very Talented Bloggers .Micheal Hoyt and My Fellow edshow member and Mentor Pat Taylor Fuller wrote blogs on me. Both inspired me to Write as they are dedicated to it.

In between helping Amy Rodriguez and Gen Rodriguez I always had a Commitment to #CivilRights So along with my Twitter and Edshow Friends Dennis Mack @littleredblog and Nekole MzDivah Dee @MzDivah67 We Endured DEATH THREATS Taking Out A RACIST. Thank You Dennis and Nekole For Having My Back. We got Coffin Memes it was Sick and Scairy. But We battled and Helped Anonymous take him Off Social Media.

During Easter 2015 I did A YouTube video filmed by My Aunt Carol. It was Part Sermon Part Testimony. It was done at My Friend Andres Carrero Ministry NotForgotten Event For Easterv All on Why God Let me an Ordinary Disabled man do this Extraordinary Cause. The Video Titled : Fred The Prayer Warrior Was a Success. I had a goal of Public Speaking and i felt that if I could actually talk to people in an audience things could change. IT WORKED !!

Soon Edshow eneded and i needed a way to Promote #ExpandMedicaidNow. I am A Man of Faith during A Ride home from Church God told me through Prayers To Blog Then I got the courage to Film myself on YouTube. Then later Facebook Live and Periscope.

The Blogs Used Art by Talented Meme Artists From Occupy Facebook, #FightFor15 #RaiseTheWage and #VOTEBLUE. Plus My Friend Andres Carrero of iKandi Design and The NotForgotten 180Project. Org Ministry

But One Day i got A message on Facebook. A Documentary Artist Thresa BrownGold of Art As A Social Inquiry wanted to Paint Me and hear My story. You see her amazing work in the memes with paintings of Myself Amy Rodriguez and Gen Rodriguez. Thresa BrownGold even painted President Obama. This is an Honor to me. I am Blessed and Humbled.Thank you Thresa BrownGold We All Appreciate it and You.

Soon I realized I needed a Team So #ExpandMedicaidNow Team was born. Amy Rodriguez would be Our Co Administrator and Community Liason .Along with Dennis Mack and Nekole MzDivah Dee,Pat Taylor Fuller, Alcinia Hill, Brenda Feliz Fegar, Elvira Ramirez, Genesis Rodriguez, and Angela Brill.

In March of 2016 I was creatively stuck Medicaid Expansion still didn’t happen. We needed a new Direction and again i Prayed. God answered with The Phrase #Impact

Soon An Old Skill Graphic Arts would come in Handy. As i was frustrated I couldn’t do memes. So Soon with Text Art,PosterWrap , and PicsArt I did it. So now i do my own memes too.

I didn’t do All of This alone . Two people helped me also who are part of the #ExpandMedicaidNow

Team : Elvira Ramirez and Brenda Feliz Fegar who Shared my Petition, and Generously share Posts For me Today. Amy Rodriguez and Pat Taylor Fuller Nekole MzDivah Dee and Dennis Mack Steadily advise me and share my Tweets and Posts. And Angela Brill helped Promote Our Cause with T Shirts.

It was Tough At Times my friends but If you have a Great Team, it is alot easier. I am Blessed To have One. Thank You to All on Facebook and Twitter who Share Our Posts and Tweets.I Always Appreciate it God Bless. Thank you to All who Published My Blogs. Thank you To All Talented Artists.

Your Stories Falling Through The GAP

The Price Of Prescription Medications Is Killing Us 

My Friends We have a few days left before the election.  But One issue is Not going away.  And If Not Fixed it will kill. The Issue The Ridiculously High Price of Prescription Medications.

We at #ExpandMedicaidNow #Impact have been advocating on this for months. But For Me It hit Home last week. The Pharmacy I Buy one of My Asthma Medicines From. Winn Dixie closed many of its pharmacies recently.  The Medicine is The Generic Version of Singular.  MONTELUKAST SODIUM. .This cost me $15.00 per 30 Tablets. This was affordable.  Now at 3 Competitors  Publix, CVS, Walgreens. It will cost me $133.00 Per 30 Tablets. Being Uninsured i can Not Afford that. Walgrrens had a discount to $77.00 Per 30 Tablets.  Still Way Too High. I went through alot this week on this. I almost had a Heart Attack from the Shock  of the Price. !! The Stress of Being Uninsured is Too Much  !! This is a Burden No One Insured or Not Should have. 

For Example My Friends Amy Rodriguez and her Daughter Gen Rodriguez Gen has only one Functioning Lung and only 25% Of the other.due to Respiratory Illness. She is Uninsured and in the past  Used Claritin and Cough Syrup. The Reason She can’t afford her Medications They Cost her $10,000.00 Per Month.  Her Mom Amy is Uninsured and  suffers too. 

It is Bad Enough to not be able to see a Doctor.  We The Uninsured do this.But to Go Without Medicine too is Horrible.  And An Instant Death Sentence. It is NOT JUST THE UNINSURED FACING THIS. Our Elderly Face this.As  The deductibles. in Their Insurance Plans Will Not Pay or Be Met. 

It is a Scary proposition going without Healthcare but especially without Medicines. You suffer needlessly.  I Personally Am Scaired. To Death.I hope i can Be Blessed with A Miracle and Can pay for my Medicines Long Term.But because of Greed and Selfishness Many suffer including myself.  

For Example in Fl had Gov Scott decided to take Federal Medicaid Expansion Dollars and #CloseTheFlGap and #ExpandMedicaidNow. Amy Gen and Myself Would have access to Affordable Medicines. So would One Milliion others who are Uninsured ! How about our Elderly Should they suffer too ?  Due to Co Pays and Greed on the Part of Big Pharma  ??  

This Is A Moral Outrage and Injustice.  It Can Happen to Anyone at Any Time. Bad Health and Poverty Do Not Discriminate  !! That is why I wrote this today. We must stop the Greed of Big Pharma.  It Is KILLING US NOT Saving Us. We must #ExpandMedicaidNow #CloseTheFlGap and Insure All. And Put A Cap on The Outrageous Prices. Please If You Read this Do Two Things 

1. VOTE OUT CANDIDATES WHO FIGHT AGAINST YOU HAVING ACCESS TO AFFORDABLE HEALTHCARE AND  MEDICINES. 

2.Please Share this So All Will Know. 

So America and My Friends this time My Own Life is On The Line. I hope and Pray you will Act. 

Thank you 

God Bless

10 Great Reasons To Vote For #RaquelRegalado For #MDC MAYOR 

My Friends November 8,2016 Is A Huge Day in America.  It is Election Day..We Will be choosing A New President Of The United States Of America.  And We in Florida play a Huge Role in this. 

But There is a Race Locally which is Huge. The Race For Miami Dade County Mayor.  It pits incumbent Mayor Carlos Gimenez against Former Miami Dade County School Board member Raquel Regalado.  

I Support Ms Regalado For County Mayor.  Mayor Gimenez has left us with Failed promises and No Plans.He has tried to cut Public Transit. He did cut Public Safety putting his citizens at risk.

Here are 10 Great Reasons To Vote For Raquel Regalado 

1. She Was Born and Raised herr. That says something.  She could have left after College but chose to stay and help her community. 

2. She Is Active in The Community. She Was a School Board member. She hosts a Public Affairs TV and Radio Program also.

3. She is An Animal Lover.  She Supports Animal Rights and Advocates. And The No Kill Shelter. 

4. Family Oriented She was Born here and Chose to Raise her Family here. Her Parents – Father Mayor Tomas Regalado of Ciry of Miami and Mother Raquel were and are active in The Community.  Raquel Regalado is a Loving Mom who brings that special perspective to Public Service. 

5. Committed To The Public Safety of All Miami Dade County residents.  She is Committed to Stopping the #GunViolence in Our area killing our Youth. She will put Police on the street  and Firefighters On Duty.unlike Mayor Gimenez who Cuts them . **

***In 2013 Mayor Gimenez Issued Rolling Brownouts Closing Firehouses For 1 day at a Time. Plus Cut Gang Suppression Unit.

6. Committed To The Public Education of Our Youth. As a School Board member She improved Food Quality, and Improved ESE education. 

7.  She Is a Leader see her Twiiter Acct.You see solutions on Public Transit.  Plus she would not have let #ZikaVirus spread.

8. Supports The Arts and Sports Teams.She attends events at The Arsht Center and Marlins Games.

9. She has a Great Public Transit Plan and wants to improve access to it. 

10.Pro Workers Pro #Union and Wants All to be able to Afford To Live in Miami Dade county.  And is Committed to AffordableQuality Housing. 

My Friends I Hope I informed you as to Why #RaquelRegalado is The Best Choice for Miami Dade County Mayor. She is For All Miami Dade Not Just The Powerful and Priveledged. She is The People’s Champion 

Thank you 

God Bless

Your Vote Will Save Lives My  Thoughts On #Hurricanes #ZikaVirus #DonaldTrump 

MY Eriends Even A Hurricane like #HurricaneMatthew Did Not stop #ExpandMedicaidNow #Impact.  Thank The Lord. But my heart goes out to All who lost durung this horrible storm. Which is Where I begin. I gave alot of thought that there are others who are not given any thought to .An Unseen segment of the population who may suffer a Catastrophic Event like A Hurricane. Plus a few thoughts on Mr Trump and #ZikaVirus.  

I am Talking about the #Uninsured. Like myself and Amy Rodriguez . No One Thinks about the Double Whamny of getting hit by a Catastrophic Hurricane, then Getting Hurt Physically from it. If Uninsured it truly is a DOUBLE CATASTROPHIC EVENT. First You May lose property, then an injury occurs or you get sick. Ok For Now Hospital Charity will pay.Next Year that changes,as LIP LOW INCOME POOL FUNDS end. So YOU Face Doctor Bills and other Medical Expenses YOU CAN’T PAY.Thus leading You To Bankruptcy.  A Favorite Tool of GOP PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE #DonaldTrump.  This is a disaster many do not need. First lose your Home Maybe ? Then You are sick or hurt.No Home, No Funds ,No Credit. A disastrous situation.  

But In Florida due to Our Governor #RickScott  (R) Refusing to #ExpandMedicaidNow #CloseTheFlGap We Face a New Public Health Issue. #ZikaVirus.  In addition to #Hurricanes.  Recently A Miami Beach Police Officer Contracted #ZikaVirus. She has Healthcare but is getting a hard time from the City. (HER EMPLOYER). My question is this : What Do We The Uninsured do If We Get #ZikaVirus  ?? We Should Not be in this mess. But Miami Dade County Mayor Carlos Gimenez knew 8 Months ago and he and Gov Scott both did little early preparations.  They waited and Now People are Sick. Which is A Double Whammy because Gov Scott and Mayor Carlos Gimenez both OPPOSE MEDICAID EXPANSION. So Both are responsible For The illness that needlessly happened. Had they worked to #ExpandMedicaidNow and #CloseTheFlGap at least people could see  a Doctor and Get Well if Infected. But NO THEY CAN’T EVEN DO THAT FOR THEIR PEOPLE. 

Finally #DonaldTrump Yes I  have a few opinions on The #Debates.  Mr Trump is A Bully and A Vulgar  Pig.His Treatment of Women is also how he Treats the Uninsured.  Its All about Him. Not You America. He has a So called Healthcare Plan .This Plan Will return 30 Million People to being Uninsured. Why If You have a Prexisting Condition You are Worthless to #TrumpCare.it is A Healthcare setback our nation doesn’t need. 

Between Scott Gimenez and Trump I Do not know who is worse for the Poor, Sick, and Uninsured.  I support #HillaryClinton  (D) For President as She wants to Fix Our Healthcare system. Not destroy it like Mr Trump.  I also support #RaquelRegalado For Miami Dade County Mayor.  As she is ProActive on #ZikaVirus unlike Mayor Carlos Gimenez. 

We The Uninsured need Help America.  A Vote For #DonaldTrump and #CarlosGimenez will aďd maybe You to The Ranks of Thr Uninsured.  It’s A Good Reason to Vote. Because Misleaders like Trump, Scott, and Gimenez Will make you sick needlessly.  Yes and Maybe even KILL. YOU . 

So the Choice is Up to You My Friends Life with Healthcare this November.  Or Sickness and Death without it . I.Hope you will help Amy Rodriguez, myself  and the 8 Million Uninsured in America.  This November. Your Vote Will #SaveLives America 

Thank you God BLESS

30 MIllion May Be Uninsured Next Year Thanks To #DonaldTrump 

My Friends Today i am going to Present A Nightmare Scenario to you.  This involves Republican Party Presidential Nominee Donald J Trump.  He of Big Bulidings, Bluster and Broken Promises.

Yes Broken Promises America.  Mr Trump talks a great gsme, but never delivers on much. His track record is pitiful.  Sure he can make  High Rise buildings appear. Nice but that’s not Governing !  

Part of Government is the SOCIAL CONTRACT To Protect All Citizens – Regardless of Income.  Part of this is having a Healthcare System that helps All in Society.  Whether Rich or Poor . Sick or Healthy.

Mr Trump has the Bright idea to Replace the #ACA ( THE AFFORDABLE CARE ACT).  with something else. He hates as he calls it OBAMACARE. As he says:”It Stinks” 

Well Mr Trump to 30 Million People with PREXISTING CONDITIONS It Saves Their Lives ! Yes Prior to the #ACA We had 30 plus Million Uninsured in America.  Why because BIG INSURANCE wouldn’t touch them. The Reason : Sick People Cost Too Much ! Under The ACA this blatant heartless discrimination was stopped.

*** Yes However Currently in America there are an estimated 8 Million Uninsured in 19 States. Due to Goverors refusing to Take Federal Medicaid Expansion Dollars.  And #ExpandMedicaidNow and #CloseTheFlGap.  Of which this Author is One of. 

So Under Mr Trump We could potentially have an estimated 40 to 50 Million Uninsured in America.  

With Trump’s Bright idea i ask this : Where Do We The Sick and Uninsured go for Medical Care or Help ?  The Hospital Not Gonna Work Donnie !  Many are closing now. Due to too many Uninsured still. And A Hospital can only get you well enough to Function.  Access to A Primary Care Physician or Specialist Is needed. Under The ACA you get this. Say Good Bye to it If You Vote For Trump. As will Discounts on Prescription Medications.  #MartinSkerelli #EpiPen Anyone ?? Remember them it will be your healthcare Future with A Trump Presidency ! 

But Its Not Just Trump Libertarian Gary Johnson has No Plan And Green Party candidate Jill Stein only cares about Climate change. 

As My Meme above says: #TrumpCare Will lead to more needless  Sickness, Suffering and and Deaths ! It is THE ACTUAL DEATH PANEL COME TO LIFE. 

America Trump made Billions on Gambling with OPM (OTHER PEOPLE’S MONEY) .As he called it. Many Times he went BANKRUPT.  Which sadly many have prior to The ACA.  Sadly some still are as Prescription  Medication Prices rise. But You Will JOIN HIM IN BANKRUPTCY WITH #TrumpCare  !  

So on Healthcare America the choice is Clear in 2016. Bankrupt, Sick,and maybe Dead : With #TrumpCare !! Or Alive and Well With the #ACA OBAMACARE So My Friends In November when You Vote Your Life, The Lives Of Your Friends, Family and Loved Ones . Plus Your Neighbors, City State and Nation. Are In Your Hands ! What Will it Be A Vote For Death with #TrumpCare or Life with #OBAMACARE. The Choice is Yours America.  I say GO ACA and No To #TrumpCare do you  ??

Thank You

God Bless

10 Great Reasons Not To Vote For #DonaldTrump 

My Friends today I am going to Discuss and Provide 10 Great Reasons.  The Ten Reasons are why #DonaldTrump – The Republican party nominee For President of The United States Of America.  Should Not Be President.

1. Hate And Racist Parties Associated With The Campaign  : it is No Secret the Amount of Hate Trump has spewwed. And He is an : Equal Opportunity Offender. First the Disabled -Mocks reporter. Then Hispanics, Blacks, Native America – Elizabeth Warren. Finally Women – Hillary Clinton herself. Plus his supporters mostly are White Supremacists.  Who want to harm All not like them.

2.No Experience in Government.  Trump never has held elective office.   Would you want A Rookie in The White House America  ?

3. Instability and Unpredictable.  Mr Trump makes plans, then minutes later changes them. Or he lies and says :”I Never said that” Look At his Rallies Many have threatened to harm people at them. Or have been injured. 

Plus his recent Statements of Implied Threats Wishing his opponent Democrat and Former U.S. Secretary of State, Senator (NY), and First Lady Hillary Clinton. to be harmed by extremists. 

4.No Plans see Below :

5.Opposes The ACA – (Affordable Care Act) aka ObamaCare. Trump claims he has a plan to replace it ! His plan will leave All with Preexisting conditions Uninsured again. Plus has an overdependance on An Allready Burdened  Hospital System. Trump Will Not #ExpandMedicaidNow and Is Suported by Its opponents Mainly Fl Governor Rick Scott.  The #Impact of His Healthcare Plan Will Be :More Needless Sickness, Suffering and Death ** See above Meme

6.Will LOWER MINIMUMS  WAGE : Trump Claims :” It is Too High Now and people can live on less ” This dooms Working People to INSTANT POVERTY.

Plus Trump Also Is against #Unions #WorkerSafety and Is A #ClimateChange Denier 

7. TRUMP Favors Wealthy Connected People. SOME examples : Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin, Florida Governor Rick Scott, Florida A.G. Pam Bondi. Who give him sweetheart business deals. or in Bondi’ s Case A pass on Trump University.  ** See Meme Below

8. No Accountability :Trump Will Not Release His Taxes ! He also is Under Investigation For Trump University. 

9. Trump Views The Presidency As A Reality TV Show. It isn’t and what he fails to grasp is The Presidency makes decisions that Affect All Americans Lives. Its Called Their reality.  And One bad decision can ruin or kill millions of People. 

For Example Going to War  Do you really think Trump can make the right call America ? I don’t just look at his attitude its scairy. 
10. All Experienced People Do Not Support Trump. Many in The Republican Party publicly don’t. 

So my friends I have listed 10 Great Reasons Not to Vote For Donald J Trump.America We Simply can not have A man who is so impulsive as Our Leader. A man with reckless abandon and judgement. A man who Appeals To Forces of Hate in America for support.  To be President of The United States A person must be calm and Love And Serve All Americans.  Not hate those who are Not Like Him. That is why Mr Donald J Trump has No Business being President of The United States Of America. 

Thank you 

God Bless

#HillaryClinton Public Figures And The #HIPPA LAW 

My Friends As a Healthcare Advocate I am Disgusted and Outraged. Why The Constant Speculation overDemocratic Presidential nominee  Hillary Clinton and Her Health. On Sundauy she was Ill at the 9/11 Memorial Service. 

Of Course All The National Media made it a Circus. There was erroroneous reports of Her having a Seizure.  This was false. Information.  Maybe even spread by Republican Presidential Nominee #DonaldTrump surrogates to smear her.As usual the Media bit on it. It turns out that Hillary Clinton had PNUEMONIA and was ILL  from it. Not A Seizure ! 

But For The past two days All you hear on TV is : IsvHillary well ? I Say Enough. She is A PUBLIC FIGURE. And  still should be entitled to A Right of Privacy on her Medical Health .You see There is something Called The Patient Privacy Protection Act aka : The #HIPPALAW ! 

This Law allows All of Us to have Privacy when seeking Any Kind of Medical Treatment.  No One can know without YOUR PERMISSION what you are being treated for..It Is A Law – A Federal One. 

So My point is why are members of the media and Donald J Trump himself playing doctor ? Doesn’t Hillary Clinton deserve the Right to Medical Privacy too ?

Would The members of The National Media ,and even some on Social Media like it ?  If It was Them Under The Microscope.imagine This :

Breaking News : Major Media Persons Falls ILL ! Then speculation starts on them ? So my point being All Public Figures do Deserve A Right  to Medical Privacy.

As An Advocate I am A Public Figure. And I Get It. see above meme For How I and Our organization #ExpandMedicaidNow #Impact operate. I made A Choice making my health issues public.! Not everyone wants to do this. Yet even I Do Not disclose everything.  Yes i too would like to keep some things private. When I advocate especially with my friends Amy Rodriguez and Gen Rodriguez, i always asked Permission before i advocated for them. With others i used reliable NEWS SEOURCES, and Gave Credit. But Not All who are Sick or Uninsured want to be Public Figures like Amy, Genesis and Myself. Due to their privacy being violated. Which does make it tough to advocate For the Uninsured.  But the way media act to some : It’s Not Worth It ! To Me It Is . But i Understand. 

But to just put stuff OUT THERE Is Just PLAIN STUPID AND WRONG.!! 

I ask National Media members this question : If You  Were in Hillary Clinton’s position would you want people to do this to YOU ? Or How about if it was a Family member or Friend : Would You want them treated like this ?

My Friends We have a Choice her Privacy or No Privacy ? What Will It Be ? 

Thank you 

God Bless

My Thoughts Men OF GOD And Politics Mark Burns #Trump 

My Friends To many of You it is No Secret I am a Person of Faith. I am Proud of It. But at the same time I am Exremely Tolerant of Those Not Like Me. And I am Different too. How many people of Faith are Liberal Progressive Democrats  ? I go against the crowd. Many people of Faith are Republican. I am friends with some. That to me is Tolerance.  Its called accept others who are different than YOU !! 

I Was Called to begin my Healthcare Ministry Three years ago this month on September 16,2013 . At my Former Church Calvary Chapel Hollywood.  My purpose was to #InsureAll as many are Uninsured in my State Fl.. When  Gov Scott  (R) heartlessly refused to #ExpandMedicad . So along the Way I Founded #ExpandMedicaidNow. 

But Today i am disgusted by the memes Tweeted by Pastor Mark Burns.  He A Spiritual Supporter of GOP PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE Donald J Trump. The memes Depicting Democratic Presidential  Candidate Hillary Clinton in BLACK FACE !! Yes In BLACK FACE. It was vile and Racist. In No Way Should A Man Or Woman of God Ever Do Such A Thing !! Yes I Do Support Hillary Clinton. 

But As A person of Faith I am Angered and Disgusted at this behavior.  As A PASTOR YOU ARE GOD’S Chosen and Anonited Spokesperson.  But Apparently Pastor Burns didn’t get the memo. He is Worshipping At The First Church of Trump. !  

Being A Man or Woman of God is not easy. I know I Live it. People wait for you to Fall. But to Cheapen it with Hate is just disgusting and Outrageous.  

We As Christians Are People of Love. Jesus Commanded Us To do so. To espouse Hate Is Not Christian.  At least not what Christ tells me to do.He called me to Serve with Love For The Sick, The Poor and Hurting. And i do it. I say GOD BLESS on Facebook and Twitter.  People hate it sometimes. But i am Blessed to do what i do to try to Help others. It is Not meant as a Prayer but as a Thank you to people for their kindness and Help. Because i am Blessed to get to help others.

But Pastor Burns well…..he apparently is Preaching A Different Gospel. One of Greed and Hate. To Cheapen God like he has is Horrible.  Amos and Andy Got cancelled for BLACKFACE.Yet Pastor Burns himself Black used a Cartoon with it of Hillary Clinton. Pastor Burns It is 2016 . Hate by You or Mr Trump must be Called Out Not hidden away !! 

I saw many MEN OF GOD FALL. For less than this. Yet Pastor Burns continues why i do not know. I saw a Pastor Resign over A Moral Failing.  It was sad but he did the right thing.  Unlike Pastor Burns. And Yes Preaching Hate is A MORAL FAILING. 

Pastor Burns You Must Step Down . For the Faith. It isn’t about YOU .No matter what Mr Trump tells you, or Pays You !! 

You see when you are a Man or Woman of God.  You account to A Lot more . Its called Jesus.You represent him First. We are Called to be ChristLike. But this Pastor Burns is Far from it. 

Jesus Warned of False Prophets.  This may be one. His love of Greed and Hate show it. 

Lets Hope The Gospel of Truth Peace and Love Wins.That is The True Jesus.Who I Love and Serve. 

Thank you 

God Bless
