Community begins in mystery and ends in administration. Leaders move away from people and into paper. ↗

Looking at America's history, ordinary people did something extraordinary. Leaders risked their lives for freedoms that we take for granted today.That's what instills confidence. That's us. We will move forward and prosper because that's who we are as Americans. ↗
