A Personal Endorsement
I first met Keith Richter when I moved to Lehigh Acres in 2001. Between the upheaval in my personal life and the national headlines, it was a very transformational time.
My eighth grade math teacher that year was Mr. Keith Richter. From the moment you walked into Mr. Richter's classroom, you knew he was a man serious about giving his students a quality education. He was employing technology years ahead of its time in order to help his students fully grasp puzzling mathematical concepts.
Besides being an excellent teacher, Mr. Richter was also the kind of man you could ask for advice on a personal level. Being new to the area with the whole world buzzing around me, I had a lot of questions. Mr. Richter had all the answers. He inspired me to strive higher, perform better, and make the best of my natural abilities. I wasn't a special case, as this was routine among all his students.
Mr. Richter also played a pivotal role in spurring my current interest in politics. The day I turned 18, I registered to vote and have participated in every election since then. He always made the point that voting was one of our most precious rights as Americans. He didn't just command blind patriotism, he explained why and how to be a proud American citizen. Being a U.S. Marine, he knows all about it.
Keith Richter is more than a math teacher, he is a mentor, an inspiration, and an all around great guy to be around. He has the character to put everyone at ease and the intellect to teach people something new. More than that, he also has an open mind and is always listening to new ideas. All of these traits are severely lacking in Tallahassee these days. District 72 would be well served with the election of Keith Richter.
Keith has a lifelong record of service and is now taking it to another level with this election. He has always turned down personal gain for the chance to make a difference. He could have been making more money with his talents outside the Marines, but he went the route of service. He could have been making more when he was a middle school teacher, but he saw the opportunity to positively influence young lives. Now, he is sacrificing once again to run for this seat in the Florida House of Representatives.
He has the ability to cross party lines in order to get work done for all voters in District 72, from Arcadia to Punta Gorda to Lehigh Acres and everyone in between. He doesn't have any agenda or special interest other than the people. He isn't your run of the mill politician, he is a public servant through and through. Because of this, I am proud to personally endorse Mr. Keith Richter for District 72's Florida House of Representatives seat.

New Campaign Manager for Team Richter
My name is Bonnie S. Feldman and I’ve been a resident of Florida for the past 11 years. In my first year I rented in Port Charlotte and for the last 10 years I’ve lived in Fort Myers. I own Aaccurate Title Services of SW FL, LLC in Lehigh Acres and have been a real estate paralegal and title agent for over 30 years.
My initial affiliation with Keith Richter had nothing to do with politics. It was related to my business at a time where I was in desperate need of assistance due to my computers and server being tampered with causing them all to crash. Keith Richter was recommended to me as an IT specialist and I quickly realized the merit of this man. Mr. Richter helped me and my business professionally using his IT capabilities to rebuild my server and computers and get my business up and running. He understood not only the complexities as an IT specialist but also as a human being in giving assistance to someone – a total stranger - in their time of need. He neither requested nor received monetary compensation except for costs he expended on my behalf, all because he has a heart and helping people is what he does best.
I am neither a Democrat nor a Republican - I am a registered Independent Voter because I vote for the person who I believe should be in office. . I have come to know Keith Richter and personally know the many things he has done and continues to do for so many people – not because of what he can get back or how it looks but because it is in his nature to do for other people. I know the voters can use someone like that in office. There is no doubt in my mind that Keith Richter should be voted into office by every person who wants someone actually representing and doing for them instead of just being given lip service. I think most people are tired of politicians who are wonderful at passing out their cards and themselves in order to get voted into office but aren’t there for the people when they really need assistance and representation.
When asked if I would be willing to assist Keith Richter as Campaign Manager due to the illness of his present Campaign Manager I did hesitate. My concern in accepting the position as Campaign Manager for Mr. Richter was that my Independent voting status may in some way harm his standing as a candidate and that I was not an expert in such matters. It is my hope that my voting status as an Independent voter will make other voters in District 72 realize that Keith Richter is a good man who is really for all of the people and, as such, the only sound choice as candidate State Representative.
