BRACK: Pulling American troops out of Afghanistan

By Elliott Brack  |  About our American troops in Afghanistan, President Biden cannot pull our troops out of there fast enough for me. Our country should have never been deployed sending American troops to that part of the world.

Aaron in 1974.

BRACK: Remembering Henry Aaron; the inauguration; church gala

By Elliott Brack, editor and publisher |  The year was 1973, and Hank Aaron was chasing Babe Ruth’s record of 714 home runs. That was exciting, with some thinking perhaps Aaron would tie the record in the last home stand of that season. At the time, he had hit No. 712.

BRACK: Here’s how Joe Biden can ensure being the next president

BRACK: Here’s how Joe Biden can ensure being the next president

By Elliott Brack  |  Joe Biden hasn’t asked us for this advice, but we think we have a sure-fire way for him to ensure he will become the next president. It has to do with his selection of his running mate, the person who would become vice president in his administration. 

He should pick Michelle Obama.

BRACK: Georgia’s impact on presidential race getting less likely

By Elliott Brack  | Watching the Democrats wrangle for the nomination for president is much like watching a sporting event. Except that is long and drawn out, not so much like a fast-paced basketball game as it is an ever-so-boring, several-day cricket match. Add to this that the political commentators have a field day of putting out new views daily based on the sketchiest of information, the little matters that doesn’t amount to much.
