Grandma Kay LeeI'm a responsible, educated, productive pot-smoking, otherwise law-abiding mother, great and grand, to 17 nice people. I'm also an ordained minister who, as often as possible, connects with the spiritual nature of all things. I use the natural plant Cannabis to raise my quality of life. (It helps me be nicer to annoying people. Aren't you glad? lol). I advocate for almost lost causes ie prison and drug law reform, human rights, an end to prohibition, and lasting peace: I'm sure war is not the way to peace. I deeply love my country as the Constitution laid it out. I claim the rights that God gave me and that the Constitution confirms. I am very disappointed that political types don't honor God nor the founding documents of our nation.

Rob KorczakSome information about Rob Korczak for those interested. 1.Rob Korczak is the son of former CIA Agent Boris Korczak. 2.By Age 8, Rob had 3 kidnapping attempts made on him. 3.Rob was a witness to his father being shot. In fact, Rob was only 8 years old when his father was shot and was right next to him in the grocery store when it happened. 4.Rob, for years had no idea he was suffering from PTSD. When he went to work in a Congressional Office in Washington D.C. in 2001 his PTSD was exacerbated even more by the 9-11 attacks. The subsequent Anthrax letters are what truly overwhelmed Rob. "On several occasions I would open the office mail and my lap would be covered in white powder." Luckily none of the powders turned out to be toxic but the mental stress was extreme. Rob is quite knowledgeable in many fields including the Cold War (for obvious reasons) as well as National and International Politics. He studied Psychology in college quite extensively and finished his studies in 1996. As a teenager Rob learned almost everything there is to know about automobiles ranging from auto repair to car audio installation.
David MartinI am very interested in the history of the Cold War. I have earned a Master of Arts in History and researched the Cuban missile crisis from the Soviet perspective. My thesis dealt with the Soviet perspective of the event and discussed Nikita Khrushchev's interest in Cuba and his determination to defend the Caribbean island with nuclear weaponry. Through this process I met and interviewed Sergei Khrushchev at Brown University in 2005. I found the encounter to be the highlight of my research. Sergei is a charming and intelligent man who knew his father well.
