	Bill Ritter for Governor of Colorado (via CobWeb/3.1 planetlab2.netlab.uky.edu) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		Colorado has a diverse and colorful history and Bill Ritter is the ideal candidate to take that heritage to a new level in the 21st Century.
		Colorado is fortunate to have a man running for governor who believes that justice, tolerance and mercy are not mutually exclusive.
		I urge all Colorado voters to closely observe the candidates in debates and other public forums, and ask themselves this question: "Which candidate is truly speaking from the heart and not from notes outlining the party line?" I believe that the answer, like Bill's vision for Colorado, will be crystal clear.

		THE seeds of Colorado Lt. Governor Joe Rogers' ascendant political career were sown in a life-altering moment during his senior year at Adams City High School, just outside of Denver.
		At 35, he holds the second-highest office in the state of Colorado, and is one of the youngest and highest-ranking Black elected officials in the nation.
		If the governor thought the young man he tapped for the state's No. 2 spot would sit quietly in his office and only emerge for ceremonial purposes, he was quickly disabused of that notion.

	04-27-05 Governor Proclaims Colorado Trauma
		DENVER – Governor Bill Owens has proclaimed May as Colorado Trauma Awareness Month, a time to recognize the contributions of the state’s nearly 6,000 emergency medical service providers and to elevate public awareness of ways to improve public health by reducing the impact of trauma in Colorado.
		Considering that about 30,000 Coloradans annually are admitted to the hospital due to injury, this informatively preventive component of Colorado Trauma Awareness Month is as beneficial to the people of Colorado as is allocating sufficient resources to emergency medical services.
		Nearly two-thirds of deaths among Coloradans ages 34 and younger are due to injury, according to the governor’s proclamation, and unintentional injuries are the collective leading cause of death and disability for Americans ages 44 and younger.
