I'm SoCal all the way! Born and raised. I have 2 Ph.d's and plan to finish with a third in the near future. I teach college level Economics and Political Science classes; and I have been at it for over 20 years . I try to be as unbiased as possible when I teach to give the students the full benefit of my class; however, its hard these days since the world around me says to call myself something. Am I a republican or a democrat? Am I wealthy or middle class? Am I young or old?? Conservative or Liberal?? There are so many reasons to be a certain way, and so many more reasons why we should divide our opinions and beliefs into categories. This makes my field tough. I am a matter of fact kinda guy.

I am...

a human being, just like everyone here on Earth.

a living, breathing, true American.

a supporter of our new president , and a supporter of our troops.

I have many many amazing friends, and most would say they are a diverse group. People of every race and gender make up my family, friends of so many different religions and faiths fill up my life, colleagues in every amazing field with vast political knowledge work side by side with me. I'm so spoiled.

I despise racism.
I dont see color, in fact I love color so much it makes white look dull.

Just like Obama, I was born in the only country my parents believed could their story be possible. They always spoke of peace and insisted I teach the same. I will never let them down; and I will continue to share my vision of unity as they did.

I pray everyday, and love doing it.

I work my tail off. I play my ass off. I travel and surf like a mad man. I date beautiful women and teach wonderful kids. I am tough and dont take peoples crap. I can be a smartass, but I am respectful to those who are respectful to me.

I can honestly say, I am one happy dude!

Life is good. God is Good.

I have a wonderful daughter who also studies poli-sci. We are like two peas in a pod!
She is an amazing student, an amazing human being, my reason for living, and my hope for our future.
