Election 2012

Treading dangerous waters, politics

Hi Everyone:

It's never too early to start next year's presidential election. It's been on my mind a lot lately. I recommend you read the newest issue of Time magazine to form your own opinions, or maybe you want to strengthen or change existing ones. When it comes to politics I am an independent (meaning I choose who i believe is the best man or woman for the job regardless of party.)

I know that Yorkville, at least at first glance, is heavily Republican. So I'm asking the Repubs in the audience to take a serious look at a guy I've liked for a number of years. His name is Hailey Barbour, and he's the current governor of Mississippi. I feel he does a good job talking reality to the public. He has navigated his state through Katrina and the recent storms in the southeast United States.  That's my two cents; I ask you to take it for what it is worth.
