John Bliss for Merced City Council: Faith, Safety, and Common Sense Leadership

In this inspiring episode of The Constitutionalist Podcast, host Eric Rollins interviews John Bliss, a lifelong Merced resident, high school teacher of AP Government & Economics, former coach, and 2026 candidate for Merced City Council District 6. John shares his deep roots in Merced County (family since 1852), 37+ years in education, and passion for constitutional values, public safety, and local solutions. Discussion covers the role of government (secure rights, support businesses, address homelessness/drugs/mental health), why local leadership matters (e.g., Clovis vs. state overreach), CCW rights, and building a safe, thriving Merced through common sense, fiscal responsibility, and faith-based principles. John emphasizes prayerful decision-making, listening to constituents, and making Merced the best it can be. A call to support principled candidates fighting for liberty and community.
