Collapse all
|- The State has to work FOR the People and protect them from outside harm, that includes the federal government!
- The legislature has to lay the foundation for the people to thrive, not to prohibit them from growth!
- I am not a politician; I think different and approach things different. I don't seek membership to a special club!
"The rights of the individual should be the primary object of all governments."~Mercy Otis Warren (1728-1814)
My parents: post war children, also raising us as best as they could, instilling values like respect, manners, discipline and more.
Roy E. Weatherby: A poor farmer from Kansas, believing in his dream, moving to California to make it happen.
The Dodge Brothers: One of the poorest people in Michigan at that time, growing up to become one of the most influential and wealthiest people in the U.S.! Truly living the American dream!
Besides that, I am self-motivated, able to multitask, work well under pressure, team- and solution oriented, quick learner, able to take responsibility and lead others, punctual, excellent attention to detail, able to work without direct supervision, have both customer service- as well as communication skills. I also have a sense of humor and love sarcasm.
I also like Peter Capstick's book "Death in the Long Grass" which is a fascinating book.
