I have always related to myself as a storyteller. Even as a child. I used to dream about being Dr. Seuss and that dream became a reality when I won awards for early childhood curriculum I wrote: puppet plays, songs and activities that stimulated the brains and lives of children under the age of six.

Donald Trump isn't only a smart business man, he's also a great entertainer. He's a straight shooter. Many are betting on him to win. If you see a fight in the works, you've got an [...]
