Aaron Bashir Spoke at the Community Dinner on Nov 2, 2024

Hello everyone, I'm happy to be here and thank you so much for taking the time to come out from your busy schedules and without fear and supporting our campaign. I'm so honored to have you. Now, most of you already know about this. So I'm not here to tell you something that you probably already don't know. But something very important that needs to be done by all of us. So, before I do that, how many of you think that our country is on the right track? How many of you think our country is on the right track? Now, how many of you think our country is on the wrong track? Right? Everyone knows that it's on the wrong track. So let us keep it more in the right way. So why do you think our country is not on the right track? Okay, good. Anybody else? I think today we have a great conversation. I want to hear from you. Thank you, sir. As I said, it's not about having a machine. What Bishop James just said, it's not about me. We just heard that this country has forsaken God. We just heard about the times because one party is ruling the city for a long time. And I had one more thing. I would like to say that while we are on the right track, because all the other parties are denying, this is pretty safe. otherwise, other countries will tell your leaders to point our leaders, our decisions, our leaders, not only America, but the whole world. Thank you, Mr. Shanks. Now, none of them are pre-pillars. So I'm just speaking to people who ran, all right? Yeah, I'm going to get to you. I think we're on the right track. I'm speaking to the people here, because you are involved. But I need to understand how our party and the parties in Philadelphia work. You participate in the election, but you do not watch the whole work. I've been working for the last seven weeks to get legitimate Republican minority inspectors in place in my division. And it is really difficult. But if you will decide to do that, you will learn so much. So get involved in the Republican Party. Take an energized civics lesson by involving, turn off your TV, and get to know the people in your neighborhood. And be leaders. Don't wait for leaders. Thank you. Thank you so much. What an honor to be here and hear from good people. Now, anyone else wants to share their feedback? Why do you guys think Turkey is on the wrong track? Anybody else wants to make a comment? All right. Nice to be here. Welcome. You know, our motto in America is trust in God. And I think unless our leaders put their trust in God, things are going to go wrong. And so it's wonderful that we have a candidate here who turns his faith in God and will, I believe, act in accordance. And that's something you can vote for and stay behind. Thank you. Thank you so much. All right. Thank you, everyone. Now, those of you who have come here again, now, as I said, it's not about them this year. We heard about the economy. We heard about COVID. We heard about it taking away gas from everybody. The moral standards. Right? So everything is off. That's why our country is on the wrong track. But the question is, what are you going to do about that? What are you going to do about it? What are you going to do about this? So I wanted to present some facts. Let's look at some data, right? In Philadelphia, we lost 200 people already this year. Last year, we lost 400 people, sir. And in 2021, 564 people. So over the course of the last four years, we lost 2,000 people already. And those people didn't die. They are dead because someone shot them. Someone killed them. So these shootings, these violence, every day you hear, you watch on the news, it's all around us in Philadelphia. Even in Santa. Now, those people who are dying, half of them are teenagers. The children. Minors. And a lot of times, the young people, when they come to me, I tell them one thing. I said, listen, my fight is not for us. I said, our struggle, our fight is about you. It's for you. It's for you to have a better America. A stronger America. The America that we had when I came here 25 years ago. So everything is off the track. Look at inflation. Look at cars. And let's talk about the holy school system. Our holy school system here in Philadelphia, and it's not only Philadelphia. Every major metropolitan city that you go across, the public school system is struggling hard. Here in Philadelphia, our reading level is only up to point. Our math is, some of the children who are graduating from the school system, their comprehension skills are only up to the third level. So this is how bad we are as a nation. If you look at the open borders, 11 million people. Now, that means there are less jobs for the local community and the Hispanic community and the Asian community. It's getting more and more worse. So the borders, crimes, inflation, public school system. Everything is really struggling. And what someone shared with us earlier, that when the righteous people rule, what happens? The nation prospers. But when the wicked people rule, what happens to the nation in the end? People die. People mourn. People grow. In America, I'm mourning right now because of the illegal drugs. Thousands are dying. We have only 65 million abortions in the last few decades. Our kids are dying on the streets of Philadelphia every single day. Our schools are failing. A lot of people think they are immune to that. It's not going to affect them. It is coming. In 2020, when it's starting to talk about, instead of that drug, it's going to grow more. It's going to be bad. People laughed at me. People laughed at me that, you know, he's a sinner. But I know that this country is more and more getting into psychological issues. So again, I bring you back to the same question. The facts are there. What are you going to do about that? That is a challenge. People call me that, and are you crazy? This is your third camp. Why don't you give up? And I simply say, why should I give up? If my city is not doing, if my country is going down, why should I give up? It's not easy. It takes a lot of sacrifices. It takes a lot out of you. This pressure, this stress, this depression. It's not easy. My wife is here. I want to appreciate her for one minute, please. I appreciate her. She's been with me for the last four years. Five years, actually. Thank you so much. It keeps me going on and on. That love and passion. When my kids have to love my neighbor, my faith tells me that I have been on a task. We are the light of the world. We are the soul of the earth. When I see people dying in tents in Madras, I cannot sit silent. When I see our kids dying on the streets of Philadelphia, I cannot close my eyes. When I see America on the road track, I cannot sit, I cannot close my eyes. Otherwise, I'm not following the One God. Because He said, you are the light of the world. I need to wait. And so do you. As I said in the beginning, it's not about Aaron Bashir. It's about all of us. It's about you, it's about you, you, you, you. Our children, future of America. I have three children. I worry about their safety every single day. I want to live with that pressure. But my pressure is to change the text. Marriage, I work for you. But at the end of the day when I sleep, I sleep in peace. I sleep in peace that I'm doing something good for my city. I'm doing something for my country. I'm doing something to save the children on the streets. Winning is not about winning the election. Winning is about changing the mindset. When we talk, we are giving that voice. We are saying, and I know a lot of you are immigrants here. Thank you. What happens here, what my friends said here, America leads the world. If America is strong, then the world has an order. Look at the leadership. Two wars on our watch. In Ukraine, in Israel, Palestine. Wars. If America is not strong anymore, the world will be in chaos. This is why we need to keep this country on the right track. If you want your countries to treat you better, a lot of Christians who come from Pakistan, they know. If America is not strong, the persecution in Pakistan is also going to escalate. If America is not strong, the organizations, the people of the streets are going to take over the world. This is why it's important from a community perspective and from an international perspective that America must be great. America must be strong. America must be safe. How many of you agree with me on that? Yes? All right. Thank you. This is what we really need from you. We're not asking for much. Stand up for the righteousness. What are you all afraid of? Many political consultants told me, don't talk about God. Don't talk about the men of faith. They were the strong men of God. Our monuments, our presidents, our documents, the Declaration of Independence, our Constitution. They all have, look at this, they talk about God. Those men practiced Christianity. They were here to make a nation that was founded, that was going to be founded on wisdom. And that's why America became strong because we believed in God. But now, these wicked people are telling us that we don't need God. Right? They are telling us it's okay to put your child, your baby inside the womb. They are saying it is normal when our children are dying on the streets of Canada. It's normal. These children are telling us, these people are telling us that there are millions of people. It is normal. These people are telling us that it's okay to teach that LGBTQ propaganda to the minors in our public school system. It's a norm. But I refuse to accept it. And this is why I'm running for Congress. I refuse to accept that nonsense and chaos. This is why I'm running for Congress. This is not about me. This is about all of us. But I cannot do it alone. I need all of you. You are my team. Please spread the word on social media about me. Please vote for Adam Bashir. Many of you go to churches. Many of you have neighbours. Many of you, we have those people that we work with all the time. Please tell them about me. That push button 206. That's all I'm asking. On election day, you can spend a few hours. It doesn't matter one hour, two hours, three hours. I will spread the flyers. I will spread the word on social media. That's all we are asking for. And last of all, we are asking you to really be active. Don't think that someone else is going to do the change that you want. You are the change. You are the hope of America. You are the hope. I am still back and that's why I'm doing it. You guys all understand that we can bring this nation back to standing.
