sumpter How a candidate will work to fix our economy is the greatest issue to me. I believe that any candidate running will be patriotic in some way, but to me that is not a deciding factor in who I will vote for. I am voting on the issues and only that. Thanks!

sumpter I learned to cook very early on, like when I was 8. My mother used to say (and still does) that I could not defend on a woman to cook for me when I got older. So today, I cook for myself almost every day, and I love it.

sumpter You may have missed the title on his series, but it was called the Democratic Response to the RNC. He did the same thing for the Republicans at the DNC. It might have been one of his best topics, but it certainly was equal on both sides I can say that.
