start an economic investment program into small businesses in the neighborhoods. Those are the types of initiatives that ensure a strong america. Martha stewart an american icon. Never deserved to go to jail. Barry bonds never deserved to have his name slandered. i say the above due to the fact that we have to have icons that we take care of that can go to institutions of higher learning and give instruction to students on how to further and collectively strengthen the american society.
