The Constitutions of the United States and of the State of Missouri.
In my role as a state legislator, I would love to have a reputation as a statesman rather than a politician.

In other areas I would simply like to be known as a man who honored Christ in all he did.

I have often said "of all the things I have been called - Pastor, Professor, Doctor, Reverend, etc - my favorite is Papa".
The first historical event of my lifetime, that I can recall, was the Apollo 11 landing on the moon - July 29, 1969. I had just turned five years old. I can remember my parents and other adults talking about in the days leading up to it, and then watching it on TV with the rest of the world. It was an awesome time when people celebrating "America First" and it seemed to encapsulate the ideals of American ingenuity, hard work, dreams fulfilled, and so much more. In contrast to the Vietnam War - which I saw clips of every night on TV but had no understanding of - the lunar landing brought people together and gave everyone a sense of hope and promise for the future.
The Bible - Because it reveals humanity's condition and our cure.
Either Matt Dillon, John Walton, or Andy Taylor.
Redeemed, How I love to Proclaim it!
No. In fact, probably the opposite is true. Those who are in business, education, agriculture or non-profit sectors are most familiar with how legislation affects people in our everyday lives. They (we) have experienced the effects of this policy or that law, and have a better understanding of whether we should work to defend or repeal based on how it plays out in real life. Those with a long history in politics are often insulated from the real world consequences of their decisions, or else have forgotten.
Ideally the Governor and State Legislature will have a cooperative relationship, but that is not likely unless the Governor is of the same party as the majority in both houses of the Legislature. When they are of the same party they should have the same goals and agenda and only disagree on the degrees, or amount of change or processes of implementation, or some other tertiary issues. For instance they may both agree that more money needs to be put into the transportation infrastructure, but is that going into high speed rail or into the roads? and how much more money? The Gov. may have run on a platform that was very specific but the legislature sees broader needs, etc.

In a situation where they are of different parties, they should still try to cooperate, recognizing that the voters has put both in place. Perhaps a legislature has been focusing on and financing a certain thing for several years and the people see it getting out of hand so they elected a Governor to put a check on that through vetoes. Or, perhaps the Governor won election by the urban districts but the Legislature more accurately reflects the rural as well as urban districts, so they need to work together to meet the needs of the whole state, not just the area represented by the party or the Governor.

Whenever a Governor vetoes legislation, regardless of party differences, the legislature needs to carefully consider the Governor's reasons and "think twice" or carefully reconsider overriding that veto.
Definitely. First of all, each legislator is going to have a different perspective of the problem any given bill is attempting to address. Other legislators may have abetter way of addressing it, or want to tweek it or add to it to make it an even better bill. Conversely, they may have sound reasons for killing a bill, or asking a colleague to withdraw it. No one legislator has expertise in every area. there is a reason why the constitution calls for multiple legislators - so we can interact and challenge one another to better thinking and better writing of legislation. Such collegiality should even occur across party lines - and used to in less acidic times. In fact, when multiple legislators from both parties sign onto a bill there is a greater chance of passage, and much less chance of gubernatorial veto.
Probably not.
