A Quick Interview with Mike Slater
If you could have anything in the world:
The ball George Bush threw out in Game 3 of the 2001 World Series in Yankee Stadium.

What are your political views:
I’m a registered Independent because the Republican Party means absolutely nothing anymore. I speak for myself, not for any party (John McCain a conservative? Feel disenfranchised much?). If I had to label myself, I’m a free market capitalist, socially moderate, American Exceptionalist. Chew on that for a while.

People you’d like to meet:
Kendra and the smart one. I’m joking. Kind of. Shepard Smith.

Who is the Greatest American:
George Washington for handing over power when he could have been king. Abraham Lincoln for doing what was necessary to keep the Union together. The people who settled West for embodying the American spirit. Martin Luther King, Jr for articulating what so many could not express. Milton Friedman for having so much patience when debating with idiots.

If you could interview one person, who would it be:
Ty Pennington and the crew from Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. Also Ayn Rand and Milton Friedman.
