Transpaency101 is a fool. Here Adam is finding fault in the school that his whole family went to. He is calling them out on where is the money that has already been alocated to this program and the money is nowhere to be found. Adam is asking for transperancy and you totally missed the point. What an dope!!! Adam YOU ROCK!!!

It's a shame this video was edited to delete the part where Adam admits he is friends with the VP of the PR firm hired by ProCure and Central DuPage Hospital (who are building a competing proton therapy center). So much for transparency! You are nothing but a political shill for a bunch of profit hungry Wall Street bankers at ProCure. How long before ProCure makes a fat contribution to your campaign? We don't need more pay-to-play politics in the Governor's office.

Transparency 101,

You raised a fair question, so I thought it was important to address your concerns. First I can assure you that any relationships with any contributors will be fully disclosed throughout my campaign. As you admit in your post, I was asked, and fully answered, all the questions asked succinctly, and in a forthright manner. Frankly, by posting all of the questions, I probably look BETTER, given the fact that I have nothing to hide.

It is for that reason that I have now posted the entire video. Thank you for helping my campaign!

Second, while I would welcome financial support from any reputable member the business community, all contributors will be informed that their donations will be used to support a more open, honest, and transparent process that will benefit the people of Illinois. They will know they are not "buying access" to a different insider, as you allude to in your comment

Actually I do have a few questions for you. If this really is Adam. First of all my friend is sold on you. My first question is Illinois one of the only few states in the union that doesnt have a concealed carry law. What is your stand on good outstanding law bidding citizens like myself being able to take a course and carry a handgun to protect my life and freedoms as well as my family's?

Third, NIU needs to disclose the funding and documents related to NIPTC. See video.

Lastly, the bilious tone of your post is probably one of the reasons so few decent people enter politics. Why would newcomers or talented business persons bother entering the important arena of political leadership when anonymous people hurl insults and impugn the character of people who are trying to change things for the better.

[AdamForIllinois]

Your accusations against me are baseless. This will become more and more apparent as the campaign for governor progresses. If you (or any others reading this post) would like to discuss these matters further, please call my campaign at 630 899 9191.

My other question is sorry it only lets you type so much in. My other question is I grew up in Southern Illinois down past Mt. Vernon the area has been hit very hard with unemployment every since the coal mines shut down. There really isnt a future in this area for anybody. What would you do to change that?
