He was a Brilliant Writer and author and a fellow midwesterner to request lake michigan. Which if any of you that do not know, was the premier for the event in america. When they bring in people like atwood and people like me once in a while. [laughter] he has written several wonderful books, in harms way. About the indianapolis four soldiers, about the first batch of american troops in afghanistan after 9 11 on horses. And soon to be a motion picture, we might talk about a little bit later.

Maybe she would have stood by them, but well never know. So, mr. President , it is for these reasons i regrettably cannot support her nomination.
