Campaign themes
2016
Proffer issued the following statement regarding her bid for office:
“ | Running for office is not an option as much as it is an obligation. When our country is so lost, the only way that I can see to repair it is on the state and local level. We have to start looking at our root structure and how our nation has lost our Rule of Law, our Constitution and our God. The corruption of our nation starts in our community and roots itself in our schools and proliferates to our state and federal government.
The Marine Corps trained me to be a warrior and that is what I will continue to be! I won’t consider myself a Politician, as much as I will consider myself a Patriot with a mission. The Proffer’s are rooted in our community and have been Christian leaders in religion and politics, I intend to continue the Proffer-Rhodes tradition. Psalms 33:12 tells us "Blessed is the nation whose God is still Lord", let Missouri and District 145 lead the way! [7] |
