Marshall, MO.

I head into rural Republican districts across the state and country and I organize the Democrats in those red spaces. I am a cheerleader for these Democrats. I remind them that they are not alone, and they are a force for change.

I will never stop.

Casanova was once asked if sex was better for a man or a woman. He answered, wisely, "For a man. I would never risk my life for pleasure." Let that soak in. It is still true 265 years later.
