By telling my own story, I hope to help remove the stigma. It never should be something to hide.

Part of me is still waiting to grow up, to be an adult, and the other part knows there is no such thing.

The rules are all wrong today. The mandate of the media really does pre-date the founding of the United States.
teaching kids political
There is one solution to all of our problems: Teaching our kids clarity of thought and political representation in democracy. That's it.
dream moon order
In a way, J.F.K. was the high point of the American dream. In order to go to the moon and back, all we did was say we could - and we did.
