		<description>IN REGARDS TO LAVERS’ SOUND BITES ON VISALIA MAYOR GUBLER………Lavers believes that all our rights written in the constitution come from God. “Therefore, neither man nor the government can take them away.” “If God is not our guiding moral code then our moral code would be up to public opinion,” he said. He was raised Catholic and his wife, Jewish, but he doesn’t consider himself an overly religious man. Nevertheless, he feels strongly about all municipalities embracing “In God We Trust.”  ………..ARTICLE SIX OF THE UNITED STATES CONSTITUTION SPECIFIES THAT &quot;NO RELIGIOUS TEST SHALL EVER BE REQUIRED AS A QUALIFICATION TO ANY OFFICE OR PUBLIC TRUST UNDER THE UNITED STATES.&quot;….I GUESS HE MISSED READING THAT PART OF THE CONSTITUTION.  ALSO, THIS COUNTRY’S GOVERNING LAWS HAVE ALWAYS BEEN AND WILL CONTINUE TO BE MAN MADE (FOR BETTER OR WORSE).  
Another reason among many Lavers felt voters should choose him over Gubler is because he is a sixth generation farmer.  “There are 23 lawyers in the legislature and only five involved in agriculture. We don’t need another attorney in the assembly. “That makes it too easy for the lobbyists” said Lavers.  YET……... As a member of the Kern County Cattleman’s’ Association and currently 2nd Vice-President Emeritus of the California Cattlemen’s Association, Lavers has had to lobby for the industry in Sacramento and Washington D.C. , so he is no stranger to politics…..NOR  TO BEING A LOBBYIST! 
ONE MORE SELF DESCRIBED RELIGIOUS GUN TOTING REPUBLICAN………SAME O, SAME O.</description>
