Editor, I endorse Gary Herbert for governor. He has proven his ability and leadership for many years, first as a Utah businessman, then as a county commissioner, and most recently as our governor. As the president and CEO of my own small business, I recognize and applaud the clarity and consistency Governor Herbert has shown while dealing with the challenges of his office. His decisions have continually been "on the mark" to keep Utah pointed in the right direction. Thanks to his good leadership, Utah has become a shining example of fiscal responsibility. This has been accomplished, in large part, due to Gary’s insight from his life experiences, by his innate ability to grasp concepts and ideas, and by his ongoing focus on his job. He stays fully engaged and fully informed. Our business and personal lives are better off when government leadership is made up of individuals who serve for the right reasons. Judging by his actions and the decisions he has made in office, Gary Herbert has proven he is the right leader for Utah. His leadership has kept our state on the right course. I believe he has earned re-election! Neal Dastrup Provo
