Wow! Lots going on around here. My mom is sick with pnew-moan-ia. We're looking after her real good.
But she insisted on writing this story about drawing attention to pet rescues by naming the new Space Station node after a real hero, a pet rescue named Rin Tin Tin:

Please go read. She tells you how to go to the right place, write in Rin Tin Tin & vote!
When Mom gets feeling better, our new German Shepherd guy, who's almost as handsome as me, and very sweet, will start his blog. He survived very bad stuffs before being rescued.
Then Mom & I went to visit him and knew he was OUR family! We like each other. He loves our cats, too.
And he's crazy about Mom. Me, too.

Ladies and gentlement, boys and girls, friends all,
First, let me say that I am glad to be back talking with you. Mom and I had a tough time after we lost Winnie.
Mom also was busy rounding out 2 years of leadership in a community organization. And, she had to go to the people vets a lot. She told me that they will have get her arm fixed in an operation in the hospital! So she is making plans for that.
Which leads me to health care. My fellow Americans, our health care system, for humans, dogs, cats, horses, birdies, is in sad shape. Our health care costs us too much.
My mom wrote about a lady who was denied treatment for her leukemia at the M.D. Anderson center until she came up with $45,000 cash in advance! Then when she borrowed that money and went to be admitted, they demanded $60,000 more!
This is not right. People, doggies, kitties, should be taken care of when they're sick.
When I am elected president, I pledge to work on the health care system. I am very concerned that millions are spent on drug users with all kinds of programs, but working Americans who get sick just get swept right out into the street. We must stop these bad practices.
I will immediately create a Department of Good Health. I will institute programs where specialists go out to look at hospitals, doctors, and clinics and make sure that people are being taken care of first, and the paperwork second. As any parent of a puppy will tell you, there's a time and a place for paperwork, but paperwork is not the most important part of your day!
I will reclaim monies spent on big jets and big parties for Congresspersons and big Administration officials.. I'm sorry, but it's time for the party to stop. If a Congressperson wishes to travel outside of the same travel we all use, they can provide it for themselves. And there will be NO freebies from lobbyists and big companies!
My Mom always says that the best cookies are the ones we earn. We Americans have been giving away our future in cookies to anyone with a title who just wants one.
No more! Everyone working in my administration will be expected to know the basics of their job: come, sit, stay, lie down and rest, fetch, take, carry, etc.--and to do them well. That's the bottom line.
Thank you for visiting with me. I have one more thing to say:
I am tired of hearing people say "God d* America." That is no way to talk about God! And that is not something you should say about America!
God BLESS America! And if you think differently, then someone in the world is bound to get a leg up on you--and your country.
So please think it over before you go spraying hatred and anger all over the place. Mom says that cleaning up the normal everyday messes is one thing, but cleaning up the messes left by hatred and anger is an almost impossible job.
I'm asking you this: will you join me in cleaning up the messes of hate and anger? Will you join me in saying God BLESS America?
Owain Glendower,
Owain for President

We are excited here in Owain Glendower for President campaign headquarters!
So many people have told us they will vote for me! The ladies at the bank--who always have cookies for me at the drive-through said that I had their vote! We went to Atwood's, and everyone we talked to said they wanted to vote for me!
And now we're reaching hands across the water--our good friend Vince from the Nottingham area of England has agreed to serve, if her Gracious Majesty, Queen Elizabeth, agrees, as England's ambassador to the U.S. As Her Majesty is a noted Corgi fancier, I think she'll agree after I'm elected!
We want to hear from you! What issues are important to you?
Your candidate,
Owain Glendower
