When politics is stripped from virtue and justice 

Corruption takes advantage its evil empire to build!

I thank you with all my heart dearest Ann for your kind words! Do not expect from me to win! Tomorrow I will be on TV but that is too little too late to be known among the people! Friends and people who know me they say they will help but without money and support the battle is lost, however I will fight to the end! God bless you!

As you say my dearest, Richard: I need the best of luck but even with that out of the parliament I will remain! Why I run? Out of moral obligation and because they asked me to for in my party appreciated my qualifications among them the languages I speak: Greek, English, French, German! Thank you so much for the vote of confidence!

My dearest friend, Vijay , I know that it is impossible for me to win for I have no money to advertise and no people to help me in my campaign because I did not asked any! They asked me to run because of my qualifications and I accepted! I leave all in God's hands! Of course all the work is done by me alone ! Friends talk to friends about me but its not much! Thank you for the vote of confidence!

Hesiod, a Greek poet that lived between 750-650 BC is the first that talks about corruption in public life therefore, my dear friend. Tom, we have a long time to go to achieve Virtue and Justice in public life! Thank you very much for your lovely comment!
