Letter: Know the truth about Heitkamp

At a debate in Bismarck between Rick Berg and Heidi Heitkamp, they were both asked if they support oil drilling in North Dakota.

Heitkamp’s enthusiastic response was “Drill, baby, drill!” Yet, she accepted campaign contributions from anti-fracking lawyers out of state.

Candidates don’t accept money from organizations without agreeing to represent their cause.

Obviously, she is not for oil drilling in North Dakota. Heitkamp is not telling the truth. She strongly supports President Barack Obama. He stopped off-shore drilling and drilling on public land.

There’s nothing stopping him from taking over our private land in North Dakota to stop drilling here too.

It is the opinion of many that Obama is unconstitutional and is promoting his dangerous agenda in America. We are being stripped of our liberties one by one.

Obama is not for America — he’s for himself and a certain few that will back him. Heitkamp wants to be one of the few. She’s already Washington. We need to continue to fight for our freedom — vote Berg.
