“Why was I the Most Popular President Who Ever Lived?
I castrated the IRS, implemented the National Sales Tax (Fair Tax) and brought an end to parasitic government - all through the use of numbers, statistics. business metrics, graphs, pie charts, efficiency - in short - results.”
Nancy Omeara, The Most Popular President Who Ever Lived [So Far]
