Oct 2014

I feel a kindred to Elizabeth cause she was born and lived until she was around 12 years old here in Oklahoma so we do have somethings in common. She, like me, has some Cherokee blood coursing through her veins. When I listen to her talk I get a sense like she isn't that far removed from her Oklahoma roots. My hope is she at some point will run for the Presidency as she could do so much at the top that she can't do now. Oh don't get me wrong I like her where she is but feel she could do much more in the oval office but I'll take her wherever she wants to be.
at any rate I won't pressure her to do anything except keep on doing what she's done in life up to now as she is a great success already and has made some awesome decisions to be where she is today. Being in Teddy's seat is no small feat in itself.
