In a period when politicians are noted more for dodging the truth and running away from vital issues it is a pleasure to see a candidate running for Congress in the 15th District of Florida possessing unique qualifications along with the intellect and integrity to unabashedly address the major issues confronting America today.

Dr. Bob Bowman, one of the nation's most knowledgeable and articulate voices in the national security field, is running for Congress in the 15th District of Florida, which is located in Brevard County and home to the Kennedy Space Center.  Bowman, who resides in Melbourne, is a rocket scientist with a Ph.D. in Aeronautics and Nuclear Engineering from the California Institute of Technology.    

Bowman flew 101 combat missions in Vietnam and directed all the "Star Wars" programs under Presidents Ford and Carter.  He is the recipient of the Eisenhower Medal, the George F. Kennan Peace Prize, the President's Medal of Veterans for peace, was honored twice by the Society of Military Engineers with ROTC Merit Awards, received 6 Air Medals, while receiving dozens of other awards and honors.  

What immediately impressed me about Bowman was his campaign promise to do what this Internet columnist has been proposing for better than four years.  If elected Bowman will introduce Articles of Impeachment against George W. Bush and his fellow architects of deceit and disaster.
