Yang demonstrating #HumanityFirst




I like and admire most everyone on this list. Some I consider friends. You get to know people on the road. You bond in unexpected ways.

The press makes it seem like a horse race. Each candidate is a human being on the road away from loved ones. Not many know what it feels like from the inside. I appreciate everyone who stepped up. Win or lose.

I could easily be on this list myself if not for the #yanggang and the fact that I always knew I was staying in no matter what - I never had another race to run or a post to return to. This was always a one-way trip.

Bottom line - it takes a lot of heart to run. “It is not the critic who counts . . The credit belongs to (he or she) in the arena .. who strives valiantly .. because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds” - T. Roosevelt
