A Mother's Day Candidate Profile

Today's candidate profile is a woman running on the Republican ticket to unseat the current Democrat representative for my district in Georgia.

Her name is Deborah Honeycutt. To find out about the incumbent click on the tags at the bottom of the post, but this post is all about Mrs Honeycutt.

She is a doctor and this not her first challenge to the current corrupt politician who is holding the seat right now. A word of advice to Mrs. Honeycutt, don't ignore that sliver of Cobb County that is in the district you want to represent like you did last time. The district in question is 13th and it encompasses much of the southern and western portions of the metro Atlanta including Cobb, Fulton, Clayton, and Fayette. Clayton County is the county that is in danger of losing the accreditation for its schools that I have written about a lot, and one which once again is predominately an African American area and just can't or won't leave the Democrat plantation. That is what makes it such an uphill climb for Deborah Honeycutt. Even thought she is a successful African American woman she has that dreaded (R) after her name and to too many people they simply can't see beyond that.

In 2004 Dr. Honeycutt was President of the Georgia Academy of Family Physicians and in 2005 served as Chairman of the Board of Directors. On the national level she has served on the American Academy of Family Physicians’ Commission on Education. She was twice elected the nationally elected Minority Constituency Delegate and is now the Georgia State Delegate to the American Academy of Family Physicians.

In 2005 she became Medical Director of Good Shepherd Clinic, the free clinic in Morrow, Georgia. She served as medical director there until her decision to run for U.S. Congress in Georgia District 13. Dr. Honeycutt, despite her campaign schedule in 2006, continued to serve free clinic patients as a volunteer physician.

I don't think even the esteemed Dr Howard Dean can boast of such a record. Here is some more information on her stance in regards to small businesses.

Since her website is just starting up it is kind of sparse, but I hope she fills it up and I hope the RNC will see fit to send some money her way to get this corrupt Democrat out of office.
