President's Day 2026

Eisenhower was President of The United States when I was born. So, posting a quote from him is a good place to start:

    "The supreme quality for leadership is unquestionably integrity." 

The first president I remember knowing anything about was Kennedy. I could share multiple impactful quotes from him. One that stands out is certainly:

    "Let us not seek the Republican answer or the Democratic answer, but the right answer. Let us not seek to fix the blame for the past. Let us accept our own responsibility for the future."

In my first opportunity to vote, Carter was elected. So, an impactful quote from him is:

    "In our democracy, the only title higher and more powerful than that of president is the title of citizen. It is every citizen’s right and duty to help shape the future legacy of our nation."

On this President's Day, I think we all should look at the leaders who have made a positive impact on this country and on our world. So, I will close by sharing a couple of quotes from Eisenhower again:

    "History does not long entrust the care of freedom to the weak or the timid."

    "The future of this Republic is in the hands of the American voter."

I have come to feel that my opportunity as a citizen to vote is being threatened. So, I certainly have been reaching out to my legislators regarding the newest legislation proposed for voters. I hope you have as well. Your voice counts. Your vote counts.
