Is there anything else you would like voters to know about you?
I am a self made man from a very poor Mississippi family from Southaven and Picayune. I tell my kids I am not interested in words but actions. I not interested in how many organizations you belong to but what do you do personally. Taking a picture with a orphan is not the same as adoption, I know first hand. Remember that you must live life as if it will end tomorrow.
