John Kitzhaber for Governor 2010

I'm John Kitzhaber. I'm running for governor because we need to fundamentally change how we engage with one another to solve our shared problems.

I bring to this a set of experiences, perspectives and ideas that can help during this time of crisis: when so many of our people are unemployed; when escalating health care and energy costs are burdening families and businesses alike; and when it is hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Every state in the nation is facing similar challenges, but more than any other state Oregon has the capacity to move beyond them but not by continuing to do what we have been doing in the past.

I believe that Oregonians are ready to embrace a different kind of politics and to make the kind of tough decisions that will be required to create such a future. I could be proven wrong and in that case I am not the right person to serve as your governor. But I dont think I am wrong.

I think its time to remember who we are and what we are capable of. Oregon has a long history of approaching our challenges together - and a remarkable track record of success when we view ourselves as members of the Oregon community first and as partisans and stakeholders only second.

If we have the courage to make the right choices now and act for the long term, there is nothing we cant accomplish.

Goodbye Oregon!!!

@FallingFree25 No one really knows if this douchbag has even won yet. He beat Dudley by .08% way too close to declare a victory, there's certainly going to be a recount, all the ballots haven't even been counted yet. What a cocky asshole john is. He can go to hell for all I care, he's probably Hitler's inbred grandchild by the looks of it. I'll be happy to leave the socialist state of oregon.

@sclock2 goodbye!

Does anyone know Kitzhaber left oregon since about the time he left office? Shows how much he's really for oregon. We've already had this old hag in office, he didn't do jack shit, we don't need the same bullshit in office again. Oregonians who vote for this guy are clueless idiots. I'd have kulangoski again but not this pedophile. He might not be a pedophile but I'd never allow my kids to be looked after by this guy.

I hate this guy, he looks like a complete asshole. I'm going to leave the state if he wins.
