Between the rise of China, resurgence of Russia, and ongoing turmoil in the Middle East -- securing our safety at home and abroad is of critical importance. Good national security and foreign policy decisions require experienced, qualified experts who understand our country’s role in worldwide diplomacy.
Mike Derrick has a record of service and leadership that is unparalleled.
From earning the Bronze Star for his combat service in the Gulf War, to
his time as a European regional policy expert on missile defense –
Mike has demonstrated his ability to keep us safe because he’s lived
it. As a retired U.S. Army Colonel from right here in Peru, NY, he is
willing to use his first-hand experience to serve the family, friends,
and communities that he grew up in, and that’s the kind of representative
the North Country needs.
[The recent] presidential debate offered an obvious contrast in character and competence between the two presidential candidates. I wonder how Mike’s opposition can support Donald Trump -- someone so unfit to be Commander in Chief. Mike is committed to electing Hillary Clinton and stopping Donald Trump, and anyone who supports the rhetoric and temperament that endangers the values Mike and I fought to protect does not support the best interests of this region.
