Greg R. Lawson
I was born in Hays, Kansas. I guess you could say I was destined to be involved in politics. My first house was on Eisenhower Dr. and I went to school at Roosevelt Elementary. Also, Hays is a mere 20 miles from the hometown of Sens. Bob Dole and Arlen Specter. While Kansas will always be near and dear to my heart, 25 years of living in the Columbus area (and graduating from THE Ohio State University has made me bleed Scarlett and Grey! So why do I blog? To explore my passions: history, philosophy and foreign policy. As a believer that, while not perfect, America has been largely responsible for the greatest amount of good in a millenium or more, I think retaining our strength and prosperity is essential not just for us and our children, but for the world at large.
