MESSAGE ABOUT MY 2026 CAMPAIGN
I want to be clear about something: I am not ending my campaign for Governor of New York.
My name can still be written in, and I intend to finish what I started.
But I also have to be realistic.
I entered this race without a political machine, major donors, party backing, or statewide name recognition. We’ve worked hard to get the message out, but with November approaching, I understand the limits of what an independent write-in campaign can realistically accomplish without a major breakthrough in recognition.
That doesn’t mean these last two years were wasted. Far from it.
I’ve learned more about New York, its government, its communities, and our political system than I could have imagined when this started. I’ve met people I never would have met, challenged ideas I believed needed challenging, and put ideas into the conversation that I intend to keep fighting for long after Election Day.
I’m still running.
I’m still here.
And I’m not finished with New York politics.
What I am doing now is being realistic about where this race stands and thinking seriously about what comes next.
If you don’t write my name in and I’d be honored if you did even now, but if you must pick a candidate that’s on the ballot they can win, I endorse Bruce - Best of luck my friend.

BOOK III — RESURRECTION
Chapter XI — Of the Empty Place
(The Veil Version — VV)
1. And there came a generation eager to remove what had failed them,
and much of what they condemned deserved to fall.
2. Yet in their anger against what stood before them,
few asked what would stand there afterward.
3. For nothing removed leaves only emptiness.
Where one stone is taken away,
another must bear its weight.
4. And where one voice is silenced,
others will rise to fill the quiet.
Where one law is broken,
another order will take its place.
Where one belief is abandoned,
something else will teach the heart what to believe.
5. Thus destruction is the easier wisdom.
Any hand may tear down a gate.
Few possess the patience
to build one that opens more freely
and still protects those within.
6. Beware therefore of those who speak endlessly
of what must be destroyed,
yet cannot describe what they intend to build.
7. For a people may remove one burden
and discover that two were waiting beneath it.
They may break one chain
only to forge another from its pieces.
8. And sometimes what replaces the old evil
does not arrive wearing the face of evil.
It arrives promising relief.
It calls itself necessary.
And because the people remember what they escaped,
they fail to examine what they have welcomed.
9. Therefore judge change not only
by what it removes,
but by what it creates.
Ask not merely,
What are we being freed from?
Ask also,
What are we becoming?
10. For progress is not movement alone.
A traveler walking toward the cliff
is still moving forward.
11. Blessed therefore are those with courage enough
to change what is wrong,
and wisdom enough
not to destroy what was right beside it.
For the future belongs neither to those
who preserve everything,
nor to those who tear down everything,
but to those who can tell the difference.
12. So it was written:
before removing the stone, know what shall carry its weight.
Before extinguishing the light, know what shall guide the darkness.
And before destroying what generations have built, look beyond the victory of its falling—
for every empty place shall be filled,
and the two things invited tomorrow
may prove heavier than the one thing cast out today.BOOK III — RESURRECTION Chapter XI — Of the Empty Place (The Veil Version — VV) 1.

BOOK III — RESURRECTION
Chapter X — Of the Better Nature
(The Veil Version — VV)
1. And when the doors were opened,
they discovered that peace did not enter with them.
2. For the stranger still carried his wounds,
the neighbor his anger,
and each believed his suffering greater than the other’s.
3. Then it became known
that no law could command a heart to love,
nor could any ruler decree compassion into being.
4. A thousand laws may restrain the hand,
yet none can make it reach toward another.
5. For righteousness does not begin
where punishment is threatened.
It begins where a person could choose wrong,
and chooses what is right instead.
6. Blessed is the one who possesses power
and does not use it to humiliate.
Blessed is the one who has been wounded
and refuses to make another bleed.
7. For vengeance is easily inherited.
One generation teaches its anger to the next,
until children fight battles
whose beginnings they can no longer remember.
8. Somewhere, therefore,
someone must become brave enough
to inherit the wound
without inheriting the hatred.
9. Let that one feed the hungry
without first asking whom they followed.
Let that one shelter the frightened
without asking which side they stood upon.
Let that one hear another’s sorrow
without preparing an answer before the tears have dried.
10. For humanity shall not be made whole
when everyone finally agrees.
It shall begin to heal
when disagreement is no longer permission
to stop loving one another.
11. And perhaps the promised land
was never hidden beyond some distant horizon.
Perhaps its gates have always stood
where pride ends,
where mercy begins,
and where one human being finally looks upon another
and recognizes himself.
12. So it was written:
no kingdom shall be made righteous by command,
for righteousness must first awaken within the people.
And when one chooses mercy where hatred was easier,
truth where belonging demanded silence,
and love where division offered reward,
let it be known that the resurrection has already begun—
not upon the earth around them,
but within the human heart.BOOK III — RESURRECTION Chapter X — Of the Better Nature (The Veil Version — VV) 1. And when the doors were opened, they discovered that peace did not enter with them. 2.

BOOK III — RESURRECTION
Chapter IX — Of the House with Closed Doors
(The Veil Version — VV)
1. There are houses built with strong walls,
yet weakened by the doors they refuse to open.
2. For many believe strength is found
in keeping only those who agree.
3. Yet a house that welcomes only its own voice
soon mistakes echo for truth.
4. Wisdom is not proven
by the absence of disagreement,
but by the willingness to hear it.
5. The proud gather around certainty,
while the humble continue to seek understanding.
6. No vineyard bears greater fruit
by cutting away every branch that grows differently.
7. For the field is made fruitful
not by one seed alone,
but by many growing beneath the same sun.
8. Those who build walls around every thought
eventually become prisoners of their own making.
9. Yet those who open their gates with discernment
discover strength they did not possess alone.
10. For unity is not sameness,
nor is peace the silence of every opposing voice.
11. A kingdom endures
when its foundation is truth,
its walls are justice,
and its gates are wisdom.
12. So it was written:
the house that fears every unfamiliar voice
shall one day hear only its own—
and in that silence,
it shall wonder where everyone has gone.BOOK III — RESURRECTION Chapter IX — Of the House with Closed Doors (The Veil Version — VV) 1.

BOOK III — RESURRECTION
Chapter VIII — Of Liberty
(The Veil Version — VV)
1. Many desired freedom, yet few understood the burden laid upon those who possess it.
2. For liberty is not born in triumph, but in sacrifice.
3. No people remain free by inheritance alone, for every generation must choose whether it shall endure.
4. The covenant of freedom is renewed not by words, but by faithful deeds.
5. For when comfort is loved above truth, bondage waits patiently at the gate.
6. And when fear is welcomed before courage, the chains are forged before they are seen.
7. Blessed are the people who remember the cost of what they possess, lest they spend what cannot be restored.
8. For a nation is not measured by its abundance, but by the character of those entrusted with its keeping.
9. Let not the young despise the sacrifices of those before them, nor the old neglect the generations yet to come.
10. Thus every steward shall leave the inheritance stronger than he received it, or answer for what was lost.
11. For freedom is not the destination of a people, but the continual work of preserving what is righteous.
12. So it was written: Let every generation guard its liberty with humility, preserve it with truth, strengthen it through sacrifice, and deliver it faithfully into the hands of those yet unborn.📖 BOOK III — RESURRECTION Chapter VIII — Of Liberty (The Veil Version — VV) 1.

BOOK III — RESURRECTION
Chapter VII — Of the Promised Land
(The Veil Version — VV)
1. Many searched for the promised land,
believing it to be a place prepared for them.
2. Yet no land remains promised
where peace is not also cultivated.
3. For abundance without gratitude
becomes waste.
4. And freedom without restraint
becomes conflict.
5. The people asked continually
when the kingdom would appear,
while neglecting the work required to receive it.
6. For the earth yields only to those
who labor, preserve, and remember.
7. No nation stands through wealth alone,
nor does any people endure
by strength alone.
8. Mercy must stand beside justice,
and truth beside compassion.
9. The strong must not devour the weak,
and the weak must not surrender themselves to despair.
10. Each generation receives the ground only briefly,
not to possess it forever,
but to prepare it for those yet to come.
11. Thus peace is not inherited.
It is maintained.
12. So it was written:
the promised land is not given to those who seek only to enter it,
but to those willing to preserve it for one another.📖 BOOK III — RESURRECTION Chapter VII — Of the Promised Land (The Veil Version — VV) 1.

BOOK III — RESURRECTION
Chapter VI — Of the Shaking Earth
(The Veil Version — VV)
1. The world grew louder,
yet understanding became scarce.
2. Each day brought new alarms,
new conflicts,
and new declarations of certainty.
3. Markets trembled,
leaders accused one another,
and the people carried burdens
too heavy for constant increase.
4. Knowledge expanded beyond measure,
yet wisdom struggled to keep pace.
5. Men built machines
that answered without life,
and many no longer knew
whether they were being guided
or replaced.
6. Nations spoke continually of peace
while preparing endlessly for conflict.
7. The people searched for truth
among endless voices,
yet trust faded faster than information spread.
8. And though the world remained standing,
many felt it shifting beneath them.
9. Some responded with fear,
others with denial,
and many simply grew tired.
10. Yet amid the shaking,
there remained those who observed quietly,
understanding that upheaval often precedes renewal.
11. For what is unstable
cannot remain hidden forever,
and what is built falsely
eventually reveals its weakness.
12. So it was written:
when the earth trembles beneath the weight of its own making,
those who remain grounded
shall recognize the beginning of what comes next.📖 BOOK III — RESURRECTION Chapter VI — Of the Shaking Earth (The Veil Version — VV) 1. The world grew louder, yet understanding became scarce. 2.
