i met one of the greatest patriots tonight. Rick Green spoke at a function pulled together by a family friend. it was so amazing to see him again. (i saw him last year in Denver, with his kids)
this man is from the great state of texas, and very loud and proud about it. he has made so many fantastic achievments in his life, business builder and owner, lawyer, congressman (a recovering politician, hes six years clean off the ballot)
Rick knows more than many history teacers about the foundation of our great country, has studied it in earnest, wanting to understand it so he can teach other people about it.
when my parents and i walked up to him this evening to intoduce ourselves he asked me how old i was, and upon hearing the answer immidiately told me i needed to apply for the patriot acadamy. i happily informed him that i was working on my application, which he was very happy to hear.
I cant tell you guys how awesome it was to hear him speak. i'll just have to show you. we have an old dvd of his, and when they send it out, ill get the recording of tonight. he is such an amazing man, im just so glad ive been blessed with the opportunity to meet him and see him speak.
i cant wait to get to texas this summer. im praying that i get in, because this man knows what hes talking about, and while im not saying hes the answer to the problems plauging us today, i know he has the right idea.
Check him out, you wont regret it!
