Many children in the foster care system are often in the midst of a family challenge. Marcus, my husband and I sought to assist families during difficult times.

In some ways, to believe in evolution is almost like a following a cult following - if you don't believe in evolution, you're considered completely backward. That seems to me very indicative of bias as well.

I don't want the United States to be in a global economy where our economic future is bound to that of Zimbabwe. We can't necessarily trust the decisions that are being made financially in other countries.

I've learned the hard way at the national level that any erroneous statement will very quickly be magnified. So, as someone who talks for a living, I've learned to check, double-check and triple-check my sources.

What people recognize is that there's a fear that the United States is in an unstoppable decline. They see the rise of China, the rise of India, the rise of the Soviet Union and our loss militarily going forward.
