When I let it be known that I was going to run for the 2nd District US House, many well-meaning people said that I was wasting my time and my money. Because of a long-time incumbency, the demographics, and socio-economics, the district has always been written off for a Republican challenger.
If an analysis of the data was my basis for running, then I would have come to the same conclusion. My basis for running; however, was not merely on political analysis. Continue reading

Why did the Congressman from the 2nd District fight against an Historically Black University, which is also one of only two Land Grant Universities in the State of Georgia, and in his own Congressional District? Maybe because he has received nearly $1 million dollars from organizations in Washington, DC?
In this 2 minute video, I point out how so out of touch the incumbent is with his district that Sellout Sanford fought against an opportunity to get jobs for Peach County and Middle Georgia at Fort Valley State University.
It is time for a change. It is past time. It is WAAAAAAY Past Time!

Do you have a Donald Trump sign in your yard or fly a Donald Trump flag? Have you participated in the boat parades or caravans for Trump?
Are you voting for Donald Trump? If you want to help Donald Trump, then you will be voting for every Republican on the ballot. That sends a crystal clear message that Democrats abandoned your values.
If you are in the 2nd District it is especially important. A vote for Don Cole for Congress takes a vote from Nancy Pelosi.
It does not matter what the incumbent might have done for anyone. When he sided with Nancy Pelosi and voted, against your wishes, to impeach President Trump, he nullified everything.
I hope that none of my readers will, on the one hand vote for Donald Trump, and then turn around and cancel out his or her vote by voting for the man who voted to impeach President Trump and does what Nancy Pelosi and the radical, socialist Democrat leaders tell him to do. That undermines everything President Trump is trying to do for America.
Maybe he thought that people would forget. We have not forgotten. We will not forget.
Your time has come! We will send a message that our vote in Congress belongs to us, not to the establishment (Democrat or Republican) in Washington, DC.
Find out here where you can vote in person. Go today. God has not promised anyone tomorrow.
I want to let you know what we are doing to get our message out. You can help and even a small donation helps to get a message to you in your county.
I am purchasing ad space in the weekly newspapers around the district. Many in the community from both political parties read these newspapers. My ad is not just a cookie cutter ad that gets my name out.
I am writing a letter to the people in each county and talk about a different issue each week. I am doing the same in the Southwest Georgia Newspaper that has predominantly black readership.
Topics thus far have included Economy, Right to Life. This week will be a hard hitting piece on Ethics.
I am reaching out to the African-American population with radio advertisements and the simple old-fashioned way of simply and directly asking for their votes.
How much I can get out in these last weeks is directly related to how much my readers and supporters are able to invest. I’m not going to badger you with a text every few hours.
Whatever you feel that you can give is much appreciated. Give on line here or mail your donation to Don Cole for Congress P.O. Box 1181 Cordele, GA 31010.
Here are a few events. The best way to keep up with the campaign is to follow us on Facebook. Like, follow, and share. That is a campaign donation in itself.

Rain Slowed us but We Are Rolling Again to Send DC to DC!
Join us on the “Roll with Don Cole” swing through all 29 counties. As your Congressman, my focus will on the people of the 2nd District. That is why I am making this trip to every county. You are important and I am your cheerleader for a bright future.
Georgia is the number one state in the nation in which to do business. The 2nd Congressional District should and must be on that team. We’ve been sitting on the bench for the past 30 years and we need to dress up and show up for the game.
I will be your voice to make certain that we are on that team at the local, state, and federal level. I will open the doors where needed and kick them open when necessary. We will be heard and you, in your counties and communities, will make a difference and see a difference.
Just as God created each of us as a unique individual, every county is unique and important. You rightly hold a sense of pride and hope for the future.
You face the challenges of life and community with a strong resolve. You are the innovators and investors. You instill strong values and virtues for future generations.
You are an inspiration to me. I will reflect, promote, and share a positive vision for our beloved district.
The rain slowed us two days but we are back rolling again. Wednesday and Thursday September 16 & 17 were rescheduled for rain. Check out the schedule and come meet us.

Finally, if you are voting for Donald Trump, then the best way to help President Trump is to help elect Don Cole and take a vote from Nancy Pelosi. Even if you do not live in the 2nd District, this one matters to you because when you donate, you are cutting Pelosi’s puppet strings and that directly affects you.
by Bishop’s Voting with NRA was a Matter of Convenience, not Conviction
For the first time in over a decade, the National Rifle Association (NRA) dropped their endorsement of the Democrat incumbent and gave a Republican challenger a higher score in the contest for the 2nd Congressional District.
I filled out the NRA survey as soon as I received it because I want all to know that I will defend their 2nd Amendment rights. I knew that groups like the NRA tend to endorse the incumbent, but I also knew that Democrats are now openly embracing not only socialism, but anarchy and destruction.
When I heard that the scores were out, I looked at the website just to see what the NRA did this year. My heart swelled and my jaw dropped when I saw the scores.
They awarded me an “A.” It was based on the survey as I have not yet had the opportunity to have a voting record.
The near failing score of “C” for Bishop proved that what conservatives have been saying for years is true. Sellout Sanford was never a defender of the 2nd Amendment.
For all these years, as an incumbent, he could stay quiet. On 2nd Amendment issues, he got Pelosi’s permission to cast meaningless votes in order to check the box for NRA’s endorsement.
When he voted with the NRA, it was a matter of convenience, not conviction. Unless you are Nancy Pelosi or a Democrat socialist, do not depend on Sellout Sanford.
In the meaning of the scores, the NRA explained that a “C” is worse than it appears:
“C – Not necessarily a passing grade. A candidate with a mixed record or positions on gun related issues, who may oppose some pro-gun positions or support some restrictive legislation.”
His C Rating by the NRA is just one more piece of the puzzle. Now you can see the picture clearly.
Take a step back and see the reality. We do not have a representative. Sellout Sanford sold your voice and your vote in Washington to Nancy Pelosi and her band of left-wing radicals.
Here is the bottom line. You cannot depend on Sellout Sanford to do the right thing. He votes based on convenience, not conviction. You do not have a representative, a voice, or a vote in Congress.
If you are one who thinks that he will be there to help, then you need to think again. When Pelosi pulls the puppet strings, Sellout Sanford sways to the beat of her music.
Finally, if you are voting for Donald Trump, then the best way to help President Trump is to help elect Don Cole. Even if you do not live in the 2nd District, this one matters to you because when you donate, you are cutting Pelosi’s puppet strings and that directly affects you.
Cut the Pelosi puppet strings to Sellout Sanford. I will be your voice. I will be your vote. I will advocate for you, not Nancy Pelosi.
I am running to rescue and return our vote in Congress to its rightful owners, the people of the 2nd District. I will represent your values.
Freedom is under fire. We must take a stand and I ask for your support. Send DC to DC!
by Do You Really Want this Man Representing You?
On July 31, 2020, the US House Committee on Ethics released a scathing report on the unethical and unlawful spending of campaign and taxpayer funds by Sanford Bishop. The report contained 114 findings of fact and citations finding “substantial reason” to believe that Sanford Bishop converted campaign funds to personal use and misused thousands of taxpayer dollars. The report from the Office of Congressional Ethics (OCE) was approved by a unanimous 6-0 vote.
The wild spending spree included reckless misuse of campaign donations for membership in at least two country clubs, unrestrained gasoline purchases for his entire family, undocumented cash ATM withdrawals, and specially fitted golf clubs. Bishop also spent over $5,000 on a 3-day retreat with two volunteers at yet another luxury resort, which included a trip to the Master’s Golf Tournament.
In addition to conversion of campaign funds for personal use, Bishop misused the government funds which were appropriated for official constituent services. The report outlined that at least four annual Christmas “celebrations were thrown by Rep. Bishop and his wife for their respective staffs” at a luxury golf club in Columbus, Georgia. In an obvious effort to cover up the misuse, either Bishop or his wife called the club and asked that the food invoice be labeled as a “constituent meeting.”
Finding of fact # 103 on page 31 of the report proves the knowledge and intent of the misuse and cover-up.
“After receiving initial copies of the bills, Rep. Bishop or Mrs. Bishop called and specifically asked that the food invoice be labeled as a ‘Constituents Meeting,’ but GICC Banquet Coordinator confirmed that this invoice was for the annual holiday party.”
Sanford Bishop denied that these Christmas parties were holiday gatherings and insisted that these were end of year “constituent meetings.” The OCE determined that Bishop’s denials were undercut by his acknowledgement that both his staff and his wife’s staff attended the gatherings. Incredulously, Bishop said that anyone from anywhere in his district could attend if they heard about the “constituent meetings.”
If these were really constituent meetings, then why have them every year at the farthest distance from everyone in the District? How many constituents from the Benning Drive and Ft. Benning Road area on the south side of Columbus, or East Albany, were invited, or have ever been invited, to the country club?
Sanford Bishop and Democrats presume upon the voters in these neighborhoods, but all they want is their votes. After every election cycle of empty promises, it is back to squalor until they need their votes again.
Sanford Bishop is a typical elitist Democrat hypocrite. Sanford Bishop has been in Washington so long that he has lost touch with the people and values in the 2nd District.
In addition to voting to impeach President Trump, Bishop put Puerto Rico ahead of his own District. Siding with Nancy Pelosi against his own constituents, he caused farmers, bankers, and local communities to languish for eight months waiting on disaster relief from Hurricane Michael while he said nothing.
Bishop says that he is an advocate for the less fortunate, yet he has a 100% rating with Planned Parenthood, the nation’s largest abortionist and killer of the least fortunate and most defenseless, an innocent baby. His rating with Right to Life is zero. These ratings are diametrically opposed to the values of the people of Southwest Georgia representing every race and ethnic group.
Sanford Bishop sold out our district and presumed upon the sacred trust of the people. He represents elitists in Washington, not the people of the 2nd District. He should be expelled from the House, indicted for fraud and theft of government funds, and booted out of office in November.
I am running to rescue and return our vote in Congress to its rightful owner, the people of the 2nd District. I will represent your values.
Freedom is under fire. We must take a stand and I ask for your support.
by As I am out and around the 2nd District, one common question I hear is, “How are you going to win Albany and Columbus?” The real question being asked is, “How are you going to sway the black traditional Democrat voter?”
My answer is that I focus on the deep common values in our faith, our hopes and our dreams. I draw the contrast between the Democrats and Sanford Bishop and the values we hold.
I draw the striking contrast between the abysmal failure of the Obama agenda and the skyrocketing success of the Trump agenda for the black population. I focus on issues such as life, economic opportunity, jobs, taxes, growing wealth, illegal immigration, and the criminal justice reforms that President Trump and Republicans put into law.
I point out these striking contrasts and issue a simple challenge, “You must choose.” Now I am asking you to help me share these messages.
Message for the Black Traditional Democrat on Right to Life
******************************************
It hangs on the wall of a home you know, perhaps your own. It is a simple sign with the words from Joshua, “Choose you this day whom you will serve…. As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.” (Joshua 24:15)
Picture that sign hanging on the wall in that familiar place. Remember the smell of dinner on the table. Remember seeing your grandmother, grandfather, aunt, uncle, mother, or father, sitting by the light reading from the Bible and preparing a Sunday School lesson.
Now, today, I ask you to let those words of Joshua ring in your ears as if you were standing there as he delivered God’s message. “Choose you this day.”
Over the past half century at least, most black voters have voted for candidates in the Democrat party. That path has become ingrained and traditional. There is something, though, that is beginning to make you uneasy about that path.
Your values are established on the foundation of the truth you learned from your family, your church, and your own prayer and study of the Bible. It is not merely tradition, it is truth.
Now you are noticing the striking contrast between the path of Democrats and the values that you learned in Sunday School and Church. Sanford Bishop and the Democrat party promote an agenda that directly contradicts your deeply held values.
Sanford Bishop has a 100% approval rating by Planned Parenthood and a 0% rating by the National Right to Life. In New York City, 60% of black babies die by abortion.
Republicans pushed the Fetal Pain Abortion bill to put an end to the torturous, barbarous, killing of babies in the womb. Babies can feel the stabbing, slashing, ripping of limbs from their bodies until the only end to their suffering and indescribable pain is death. Sanford Bishop fought against that bill – yes, he fought it!
We were shocked when we watched the video tapes of a Planned Parenthood executive dining in luxury. As she calmly ate dinner she callously talked about harvesting the body parts from the babies they killed. In between sips of wine, she described how, if they used just the right method with just the right timing, they could harvest the most organs.
My God, she is talking about a baby!
Republicans reacted with legislation to completely cut off all federal funding to Planned Parenthood. Sanford Bishop fought it.
There is a reason that Planned Parenthood gives Sanford Bishop a 100% rating. There is also a reason that the founder of Planned Parenthood, Margaret Sanger, was so popular with the KKK.
The words of Joshua, “Choose you this day” keep ringing in your ears. You may desperately want to change the subject. The gnawing, clawing, burning bright light of truth floods every corner of your thinking. You realize that you can no longer avoid the issue.
Democrats presume that you will vote for them because that is what they expect you to do. Sometimes, they do not even bother to ask for your vote.
In November, you will enter the voting booth. This is your vote and yours alone. Your vote does not belong to Sanford Bishop, Stacy Abrams, or the Democrat Party.
Your vote belongs to you. As you stand in the voting booth, you stand at that point of decision. You must “choose you this day.”
In the race for US House of Representatives, you will see Don Cole on the ballot. I am the only one who will stand for the deeply held values that we share.
I am the only one who will stand for life. I am the only one who will stand for the people of the 2nd District and stand against the racist agenda of Planned Parenthood.
There is a clear and stark choice between the faith and family values that you deeply hold and the destructive agenda of the Democrats.
On one side is the crystal clear truth of faith, freedom, family values, and your future. On the other side are the Democrats who presume upon your vote and pursue policies that lead to collapse and ruin.
This is one of those critical points in your life. Today and on election day in the voting booth, you stand at the crossroads.
The words of Joshua roll through your mind like thunder. “Choose you this day.” You must choose.
******************************************
That’s my message on the Right to Life for the black traditional Democrat voter. It has an impact and will make a difference.
I must get this message to the black community. As important as sharing on social media is, and I want you to do that, I am not talking about merely sharing this on social media.
Now, I am calling on you, as one of my readers, to choose to financially support my campaign. We are under assault as a nation.
I will lead the charge in the 2nd District, and I will charge the hill with every fiber of my being. I am not playing games and I will not mince words. I need you.
What you invest in Don Cole for Congress goes to carry the message from Don Cole to the people of the 2nd District and for our nation.
This is me. I am sitting in my den at 5:00 am, drinking my coffee, praying for our President, our Governor, and our nation and banging furiously on this key board.
I am not begging you to help me meet some fundraising goal. I don’t give just to help politicians meet some fundraising goal and you don’t either.
I care about our nation. I care about proclaiming the truth that we might continue to live as a free people as one nation under God.
You cannot hope for someone else to give. You cannot hope for someone else do something.
Invest as you are led to invest, but for the sake of our nation, and for the love of God, invest something to get this message out!
Choose you this day! You’ve thought about it. You meant to do it. You were going to do it. Now, do it.
by Between May 31 and June 27, a mere four weeks, 93 people were shot in Atlanta. That is more than double the number from the same period in 2019.
Not only has the number of shootings doubled, the cost of human lives in the destruction has more doubled. In the same period last year there were six fatal shootings. In the past four weeks, 14 of those shootings ended in death.
The victims included a 10 year old who fortunately survived, an 18 year old, killed while selling bottled water, and an 80 year old man, apparently the unintended victim, killed at his home in a drive-by shooting.
The tragedies heightened on July 4th, when most families were celebrating Independence Day. A precious 8-year old, African American girl was killed by a group of armed men. They stopped the car she was riding in and then opened fire on the car.
That same day a fight broke out at an outdoor party to watch fireworks in Northeast Atlanta. The fight escalated to the shooting of 14 people.
While the gun fight was taking place in Northeast Atlanta, another group opened a battlefront further South. Between 60 and 100 protesters were at the Georgia State Patrol headquarters South of the Capitol area.
Some in the group, armed with rocks and spray paint, targeted the Headquarters. They spray painted the buildings, smashed windows, and tossed what the Atlanta Journal referred to as fireworks through the broken windows.
Whatever they threw in the building started a fire. Two Department of Public Safety personnel were treated for smoke inhalation.
Russell Covey, a criminal law professor at Georgia State, made a misguided observation. He said that lack of police presence “may create something of a vacuum of authority.”
I disagree with Dr. Covey. There was no vacuum of authority. There was plenty of authority at work.
It was not the authority of the city of Atlanta and Georgia law. It was authority exercised by design with strategic, organized, intent by those who hate America and the freedom that we have.
Even the organizers of some of the Black Lives Matter (BLM) protests said that the ones who attacked the Headquarters were not with them. BLM organizer, Quinton Davis, told WSB TV that the individuals showed up suddenly and immediately got aggressive toward the police.
We need to understand what is taking place here. There are those who are hard at work to instigate anger, division, and hatred between groups.
Their intent and purpose is to undermine and tear down our freedom and liberty. Under the guise of speaking up for some cause, they plant the seeds of destruction in whatever field is fertile.
Our elected leaders play into their hands when they lead based on heightened emotions stoked with spun narrative. The knee-jerk reactions, such as abolishing law enforcement agencies lead to anything but peaceful conversation and positive change.
Headlines in the Atlanta newspaper blare stories of crime, violence, and ultimately death of innocent children. Police desperately want to serve and protect but they can no longer trust the ground rules of policy and the law.
Take a look at where this chaos, confusion, and calamity is taking place. These are all cities controlled by Democrats.
For decades, these cities have had the same problems. The leaders blame the same people. They are stuck on the same platform. They repeat the same promises. Meanwhile their communities steadily perish.
The destruction, chaos, and loss of innocent lives in these cities like Atlanta and Seattle should come as no surprise. The real people who live in these communities are fed up.
There are anticipated consequences. I anticipate a change.
Join me to make a change.
by Choose you this day. Those words are familiar. It is likely that you have already finished the phrase in your mind.
In his final address, to the nation of Israel, Joshua stood before the nation that he had led into the Promised Land. He reminded them of God’s providential care. He reminded them of God’s abundant blessings.
Joshua also warned them of the danger that lurked and would attack the foundation of their freedom. Then Joshua challenged the people to make a willful, conscious, decision to choose.
Joshua concluded with his decision. “As for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.” (Joshua 24:15)
Today, America stands at the point of decision. We are in a time like never before.
The primary issues today are no longer about the size of government, tax policy, or regulation. Today we see mob violence, destruction, and an intentional, planned, assault on America.
What began as calls for the removal of memorial statues, has now taken on the face of mob destruction and violence. Today statues of Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln, and Roosevelt are not only criticized but defaced and damaged.
Princeton University removed Woodrow Wilson’s name from its Public Policy Center. The Democrat Party in Orange County, California called for the renaming of the John Wayne airport because of comments he made in an interview with Playboy magazine half a century ago.
This mob frenzy has surpassed mere political correctness. It has now metastasized into a cancer that is out to destroy America itself.
Democrats blame President Trump for the violence while at the same time they call for abolishing the police. Seattle handed over several blocks of the city to a lawless mob who apparently could not settle on the name of their newly formed republic, “Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone” (CHAZ) or “Capitol Hill Organized Protest” (CHOP).
In the first month of CHAZ/CHOP, there were at least six shootings. After three shootings in a 48 hour time frame, one being fatal, the Mayor of Seattle boldly proclaimed that the city “will not allow for gun violence to continue in the evenings around Capitol Hill.”
The Mayor’s proclamation was so effective that 72 hours later there was another shooting. A week later yet another shooting left a 16 year old dead and a 14 year old in critical condition.
Meanwhile, Democrats, including Sanford Bishop, are characteristically silent about the lawlessness, crime, destruction, and decay. The problem is that Democrats have controlled these areas for decades. What happened in a matter of weeks in CHAZ/CHOP was just Democrat leadership on steroids.
Today, America stands at a critical crossroads. The violence and destruction that we see around our nation share no DNA with the values of the people of the 2nd District.
I am speaking up and standing up for your values. I am speaking up and standing up for you as I challenge Sanford Bishop.
I need you to stand with me. I need you to put skin in the game with me.
I am regularly asked if the Republican party will support our race. Yes they will, but they need to see that the people of the 2nd District are standing up. Now is the time to take a stand.
When you donate to Don Cole for Congress, the money stays with my campaign and is focused right here on my campaign. Your contribution will go to promote your values and you can count on that.
You may have never donated to a political campaign before. Now is the time, today is the day.
We are at a time as never before. Right now, you, not anyone else, but you stand at a point of decision.
Some of my readers have already given generously and sacrificially. If you have not given to my campaign yet, then I ask you to do it now.
The number of individual donors is just as important as how much the donors give. Will you put some skin in the game by donating as little as $2.20 (2nd District in 20) or $20.20 (Send DC to DC in 2020)?
