Like a lot of business owners out there, I don't desire to face the continual flogging from government regulators who push burdensome and confusing state tax and employment laws on the business. It creates an unnecessary risk when, as an owner, I can just take it offshore.

The September 11th, 2012, attacks on the State Department compound in Benghazi, Libya, is important and should be studied because in the big picture, it represents a failed foreign policy that spans across both Bush and Obama Presidencies.

Great leaders know that adversity produces the greatest opportunities in life.

My big problem with Hillary and the Department of State where Benghazi is concerned is there is just no accountability.

Veteran causes are an extremely important issue, especially the transition from military to civilian life.
