BTW, I'm a former Democrat, turned Republican, now Independent, if it matters. I'm pretty much as middle of the road as you can get. I've been extreme on both sides. Marched in protests against nuclear weapons during my college years, carried the nuclear football 18 years later. Flew in wars for commanders in chiefs I respected, and some I didn't.

I was raised as the son of an Air Force officer from a family of Democrats. I was completely unaffected as a military pilot until my White House assignment. You'll get the gist.

Now, I stand for our military and the threats we face. And our industry. Politics bores the **** out of me. I'm very sensitive to the outcomes however.
