I am running a 5k tomorrow morning so I didn’t run much today and I’ll be doing a short post tonight. Above is a video outlining Herman Cain’s campaign platform. I like this guy. His ideas on reforming our tax codes, or, rather abolishing them and putting something else in place that makes sense, is worth electing him for, alone. Our federal government no longer works as it is. It clinks and grinds and sputters. All of the gears and machinery in our government are enclosed in a shiny red, white and blue box that conceals how broken the inside is. The American machine, which is our federal government, needs a lot of new parts…replacement parts.

Here are some facts about the state of South Dakota:
  • South Dakota was the fortieth state to join the union on November 2, 1889, six days before Montana and on the same day as North Dakota.
  • Population, as of 2010, is 814,180.
  • Senators are Tim Johnson (D) and John Thune (R).
  • Representative of South Dakota is Kristi Noem (R).
  • South Dakota has three electoral votes. Historically, the state is reliably red. The last time South Dakota voted blue was in 1964 for Lyndon Johnson. In 2008, McCain defeated Obama 53% to 45%.
944.0 miles to go.

Here is what happened one year ago on Day18.
