You Can Spend A Lifetime Resenting The Tests, Angry About The Slights And The Injustices. Or, You Can Rise Above It.

But Ours Was Intended To Be A Citizen Government. It Is What Of, By And For The People Means. And When Our Most Important Issue In California Is The Creation Of Jobs, I Think It's Quite Helpful To Have Someone In The U.s. Senate Or In The Governor's Seat Who Actually Knows Where Jobs Come From.

We Have A Lot Of Argument About Laws But None Of It Solves The Problem. Let's Examine What Happened, Why Did We Miss The Tsarnaev Brothers, Why Did We Miss The San Bernardino Couple?

Silicon Valley Companies Need To Be Asked To Bring The Best And Brightest, The Most Recent Technology To The Table. I Was Asked As A Ceo. I Complied Happily. And They Will As Well. But They Have Not Been Asked. That's Why It Cost Billions Of Dollars To Build An [barack] Obama Website That Failed Because The Private Sector Wasn't Asked.
