A Mayoral Candidate Lacking of Good Judgment
People have asked me if I fear God. My response is, no. I respect and trust God. He is kind, caring, giving and provides guidance and direction to all people. He loves us and is present for all people around the world. So what does this have to do with mayoral candidates? None of us […]
Destroying History and Monuments Does Not Change The Past
It’s been painful and shocking to watch the destruction that our “fellow Americans” are causing on monuments, historical sites and businesses around the country.

Politicians Who Are Trying To Make A Positive Difference
As we all know, the political world we live in today has gotten really ugly.

Diplomats, Not Dictators
Government Charged to Represent Its Constituents Being involved in a small business and assisting other small businesses around the country has some real benefits, versus working in big corporate America.
