She sent me this piece from the Old Farmhouse in a a had a note on it saying to square pegs into round holes. Some people say im a republican who became a democrat but that often sound like a a republican in a room full of democrats or a democrat in a room full of republicans. Actually i take that as a compliment. More on this country call them political independence than republicans or democrats. I happen to agree with them. Our country is more important than a label.

Mr. Cruz mr. President , the American People have demanded for years that the federal government faithfully enforce our nations immigration laws. Americans are tired of seeing their laws flouted and their communities plagued by the horrible crime that typically accompanies illegal immigration. But for too long the pleas of the American People on this issue have gone unheeded here in washington.

Earlier today Vice President joe biden announcing his decision not to seek the democratic nomination for president. Heres a quick look. As my family and i have worked through the grieving process, ive said all along what ive said time and again to others, that it may very well be that that process by the time we get through it closes the window on mounting a Realistic Campaign for president. That it might close. Ive concluded it has closed. I know from previous experience that theres no timetable for this process. The process doesnt respect or much care about things like filing deadlines or debates and primaries and caucuses. But i also know that i could do this if i could do this if the family wasnt ready. The good news is the familys reached that point. But as ive said many times, my family has suffered loss, and i hope there would come a time and ive said this to many other families that so
