My name is Rick Tavares and I am a native of Fall River, Massachusetts -
the town that spawned Lizzy Borden, in the State that was first to fight
against inequity. Had it not been for us loud Bay Staters, I doubt if the
First Ammendment would have evewr came to be?

I was raised in California, entered the servive here and was educated here.

I have been active for most of my 67 years and have had columns in several
newspapers, local and national. And among what was termed by the White House
as my "Many Accomplishements" has been the Honor Our Fallen Prisoner of War
Act, work on the Legaya Lagman (Gold Star Mothers) issue, and Military High
Year Tenure, among others.

As for me personally, I am but an opinionated, though patriotic bum, and
there you have it, except to say that "I will fight for what I personally
believe in until the day that I die", which to many a wholly political type,
can come none to soon!
