My love for my country had to have been embedded in my genes the moment I was conceived! It just had to be, because that love has never faulted, or diminished during the ninety-four years that I have served her.

My Motto: Ask not what you can do for me, ask what you can do for my country. Take care of my country and my country will take care of me.

I am sure my attachment to this country started with the pride I felt during first grade when I was taught to stand at attention, with my right hand over my heart saying, The Pledge of Allegiance to the flag of the United States of America. At age eleven, I then learned the Three-Fingered-Salute while in the Boy Scouts of America. Starting at the age of seventeen, I served over twenty-one years in the military.

I have written over three-hundred political letters under the byline of, “From Ike’s Desk” and dozens of letters to the editors of newspapers in various cities where I have resided. The remaining years of my life have been one of firmly entrenched conservative political philosophy that will never fail me with however many years the good Lord will grant me. God Bless America, and one and all!
