I want the people to know that in my opinion, in my life time, we will never see the vietnam war in history books.

that's going to be at 11:00 at the senate chambers.
senate vandeptte of san antonio and senator hinojosa will be the ones making the presentation.
yesterday a vote was taken by the Austin independent board of trustees.
I'm not a lobbyist, I'm not a consultant, I'm just an advocate, activist from east Austin for kids to get a proper education to succeed in life and get better paying jobs and attend higher education, higher institutions.
what the vote was about yesterday is catastrophic for our kids, our family and just for our social fabric well-being.
there are other ways to make -- there are other ways to find funding to keep the status quo and I know axing hundreds of positions is tough.

I have a lot of family throughout the united states of america, and they will not vote for you or anybody else you are supporting.
remember the taxpayers, the kids, their quality of education, quality of life for texans.
I will leave you with this.
a society's worth is measured by its treatment of the less fortunate.
too many homeless people.

our founding father who refused to be made king, george washington, warned us all against all of this idocy.
george washington knew picking and choosing other people's government is no good for nobody.
leadership is our best and only option.
we are less than 5% of the world's population yet we do have the power to stop funding those evil rejet streams who blatantly continually kill their own men, women and children like israel, killing over a half dozen babies last week.
let's stop funding there.
let's stop funding all the biggots and tyrants to bring the troops home to defend our land at the border by granting saluted freedom to family farms overnight we can stop the killing from international drug thugs from mexico.
