"...but that change if it is to be permanent and significant must start with us and in us."

"We have become our own worst enemies and we must have the courage and the will to change ourselves..."-F. Sionel Jose

Two quotations that will serve as the foundation of this government:

“The test of government is not whether to add more to the abundance of those who have much, it is whether we provide for those who have little.” – F. Roosevelt

"I abhor secrecy and instead advocate transparency."

"...I am here because I am ready to start my work for the nation."
