— Court Ruling Renews Debate On Women And The Draft – DAVID WELNA (DIERSEN: Were you draft bait? I was draft bait 1966-1971. Employers are extremely reluctant to hire, to retain, or to promote those who are draft bait. I graduated from NIU in August of 1970. During 1970 and 1971, potential employers did not believe that my application for a financial hardship draft deferment to help support my mother and brother would be approved. Consequently, in August of 1970, I took the only job that was offered me, a job that did not really require a college degree.)

ILLINOIS REVIEW
— WHERE’S WEYERMULLER? MINGLING WITH DUPAGE COUNTY GOPERS (DIERSEN: I had the honor of being at the table in the first picture in this article.)
https://www.illinoisreview.com/illinoisreview/2019/03/wheres-weyermuller-mingling-with-dupage-county-gopers.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: These are some of the issues in contention among the IL GOP faithful: Abortion 2nd amendment Border wall Illinois new minimum wage President Donald J Trump Some party leaders have indicated the IL GOP might have to take surveys of what Republicans believe and want for Illinois. Some Illinois Republicans do not wish to highlight these subjects. Many in the state – especially the conservative base – wants the party to ramp it up on these issues. The fact the Peter Roskam and Randy Hultgren lost their Congressional re-elections indicates they played it too close to the vest trying to be “moderate.” The days of Jim Edgar, Bruce Rauner, and Mark Kirk are over. To win elections in the future, Republicans need to go back to traditional values. Socialism and expansion of government with more tax, spend, regulate, and borrow needs to be shown that it doesn’t work. The Illinois GOP Platform needs to be inclusive, conservative, pro-family, pro 2nd amendment, pro less taxes, pro Trump, pro-freedom, and pro-America.)

If your critics/opponents polled those who are members of organizations that you are a member of, what percent would say that you are credible?

Those who dominate the MTRCC include a) past and present MTRCC, DuPage County Republican Central Committee (DCRCC), and Illinois Republican Party (IRP) officers, b) past and present Milton Township officials, c) past and present DuPage County officials, d) past and present Illinois officials, and e) past, present, and potential major MTRCC donors.)
