Presidential Election Part 6

This is the final part of a series of factual information on the presidential candidates. Again, this is a factual paper without my opinion. That will come another day.

Republican:

Donald Trump: wife is Melania Knauss; father of five.

Personal note: Melania is a former supermodel. She will be the second first lady in history not born in the USA.  She has it. "She was Honorary Chairwoman for Martha Graham Dance Company in April 2005, is an active member of the Police Athletic League which honored her with Woman of The Year 2006, has been an Honorary Chairwoman for The Boy's Club of New York for five consecutive years, and in 2005 The American Red Cross awarded her with Goodwill Ambassador which she has proudly served for four years. In April of 2008, she was asked by Love Our Children USA and NASDAQ to participate in the Fifth Annual National Love Our Children Day and the beginning of National Child Abuse Prevention month by ringing the closing bell at NASDAQ. Melania's philanthropic interests more and more represent her humanitarian side, and she remains an indefatigable and dedicated New Yorker.“(1) She has a line of timeless jewelry and a skin care product business.

Time to change lanes again….
When things are really bad we turn to the Lord. Who do you turn to when things are really good? I turn to the Lord. Thank him for the blessing we have received.

God bless you always. Peace be with you.
