    Create Your Badge.. : I was once asked, “Mark, why are you an Independent ... what’s your purpose?” I replied, “To put it simply, we don’t follow, we take the lead. We vote as we see fit ... we’re not a party flunkie swayed by peer pressure. We always try to do the right thing ... we do as we damn well please. We’re the lone cry in the wilderness, shouting the dissension of truth that most do not heed. We’re the last in line, the first to bleed.” "Persevere ... Persist ... Prevail!" ~MWR~2009 A.D.

"So much to be done in such a minute amount of time ... but we must make an attempt!" ~M. W. Roddey~10-17-2009

Who I'd like to meet:

Anyone who can debate with me on an intellectual level without losing their temper. I wish I could have met and conversed methodically with Albert Einstein, Leonardo Da Vinci, and Mark Twain. I bet we could of solved the World's problems, ended all wars, and party hard like there was going to be no tomorrow. "WHATEVER HAPPENS TOMORROW WAS MEANT TO BE ... SUCH IS THE FATE OF DESTINY." "TO BE THE DIFFERENCE IN LIFE ... IS A LIFE WELL LIVED!" ~MWR~2009 A.D.
