I'm very happy to have landed in the Gulch. I was living in Columbus, Ohio but I am from Dallas, Texas. I confess I have not read Ayn Rand's book yet but I was captivated by Atlas Shrugged I & II. I originally heard of the movies via conservative political web sites.
I was Independent leaning towards liberal democrats until 2008. I have voted in 11 Presidential elections, since 1972, and never voted for the winning candidate. I am disappointed and concerned with the current government and the people of our nation. Without getting on a soap box I will end by saying I am adamant about getting our nation back to a government and people I am proud of.
