Politics: I Side With...

I stumbled upon the most fascinating political quiz that asks you some basic overview questions and then calculates who you side with out of the presidential candidate pool for 2012.

Go to I Side With and take the quiz for yourself.

My results told me I am 69% with Romney, 63% with Obama, and only 44% with other Utah voters.  No surprise on the Utah thing:-) 

What are your results?

Yeah Samake

Yesterday evening, I had the great privilege of listening to the man who I hope is the future president of Mali.  Yeah Samake.

I cannot put into words the inspiration I felt listening to this man.  He truly is a selfless servant of the people who is willing to give everything to help his country.  Rare is a person who loves their country so intensely.  His history is remarkable - where he has been and where he is going.  He is also a man of God who uses LDS gospel principles to help govern.  These principles have helped bring about great change in Mali - a country that is 90% Muslim. 

I highly recommend listening to him - you will feel grateful for your life and inspired to make things happen.
