Education begins in the home, where it's a parental right and responsibility.

We still have a ways to go, but I am hopeful that we can find a just and peaceful solution to this very serious matter.

I share that desire.

If there's ever any future confusion about things I've said, feel free to ask me.

Raising taxes is no way to balance the budget.

I believe that working Americans are overtaxed and under appreciated.
