The fact that he was just straight out and foward about everything. Like most polititions they will just lie to be nice but he told us everything we need to here.

My favorite quote was "Asking for help is not a sign of weakness its a sign of strength"


Good Bless America.


You can do just what you want in life dont let no one stop you.


My goal in life is to help others. I want to go to school to be a nurse.
