I am a working-class, middle-aged mother and grandmother from Kansas. My politics lean very far to the left. I am a passionate lover of true Democracy, a true believer in the ideals and vision shared and acted upon by the Founding Fathers (especially the ones who fought hard to keep church and state separate), and a born truth-speaker (can't help myself). I try my best to be well-informed in our modern misinformationist society by perusing the internet, analyzing facts and reading between the lines. Some accuse me of conspiratory tendencies, to which I respond,"The more informed I become, the more I believe such conspiracies could be plausible." I dare naysayers to research.
