Wrapped in the Flag

Narrator: “So, have you heard? Three candidates are vying to become 4th District Harbor commissioner. You’ve seen all the spin and distortion, but what are the facts?

Susan Penn will be a hard-working advocate for jobs AND the environment. But what about her opponents?

Richard Marks wants us to believe hes an average joe — a former mill worker and softball player. But what his handlers DON’T want you to know is that he led a guerrilla army uprising in Peru that overthrew a democratically elected government. Marks — or as hes still known throughout South America, “el terrible” — is an indicted war criminal facing extradition in the Hague. If Richard “el terrible” Marks can’t be trusted with a rebel battalion and a fleet of Black Hawk helicopters, can he really be trusted with your vote?

Opponent John Ash isn’t much better. Holding himself out as an architect and kayak enthusiast, what Ash won’t tell you is that as a currency trader in the 1980s, he was responsible for single-handedly destroying the Singapore economy. A ruthless billionaire and economic wizard, the Wall Street Journal dubbed Ash “the Humboldt hitman” and said he “makes George Soros look like a rank amateur.”

Finally, there’s Susan Penn. Susan will restore Humboldt Bay’s natural beauty while boosting the economy with vital jobs.

Unlike her opponents, Susan has stated on record that she would never overthrow a democratic government or destroy its economy. And Susan Penn loves kittens.

Susan Penn. The right choice for Humboldt bay.”
