Reagan Wannabes

reaganwannabeWhich Reagan wannabe will lead the GOP back to glory?

Seems those who inherited earned their vast wealth while still in the womb are reminiscing about the many splendors of growing up rich.  Regaling one another with stories about how the poor considered themselves lucky to share in the lovely homes they served; how blessed they felt to eat some of the same food, sometimes even sleep in the same homes as the more-deserving gracious and generous masters.  These are the days they strive to return to!  They must find another Reagan.

Who will it be?

4 seasons flint hills
The Flint Hills of Kansas are undulating carpets of green that stretch from northern Kansas almost to the Oklahoma border.  Around Strong City is the Tallgrass Prairie National Preserve.  The land is pristine, the last stand of tallgrass in North America.

What’s on your mind?
