America's Newest Hero

Power isn't handed off with a title or a position.  Power isn't given, or awarded, or designated.  Power isn't even truly earned.  Power is the product of work, courage, strength and yes, success.  People who fail are seldom powerful, and powerful people seldom fail.  Speaker Pelosi has power because she never slowed down, she never backed up, and she never backed away from her own beliefs.  Today is a good day to be an American, but it is her day, too.

And I salute her.
