The last high ranking politician not to become a millionaire (or if already one, a multimillionaire) in office was Speaker Sam Rayburn. When he died in one of the most powerful offices in the country, his estate was: an inherited family dirt farm, a house that started as a two-story 4×4 (rooms on each level) and added to as income allowed, a car given him by House Democrats when he broke Henry Clay’s tenure record (he was a terrible driver), and $25,000 in the bank. I am amused when I go to his house, the most common comment is, “my grandmother had one of those”. They don’t make them like that any more.

Too many “ready-fire-aim” voters out there.

The uninformed voter would be the one voting for Trump thinking he really represents him or her. Donald’s just in it for himself.

Make your vote count for at least your principles; vote Gary Johnson/Bill Weld – libertarian party.
