Leader, US Marine, Businessman

It's time for a change--just look at the current state of the economy, or our political leadership's focus on redistributing wealth rather than creating prosperity, or the idea that government should be continually expanded to address any and all problems. Too often our elected officials put representation of an ideology ahead of representation of the people.
