The story of the human race is war. Except for brief and precarious interludes, there has never been peace in the world; and before history began, murderous strife was universal and unending.

Winston Churchill

Eusebius of Caesarea

I am running for President of the United States to enable the Goddess of Peace to encircle within her arms all the children of this country and all the children of the world.
