the duo interpretation sounds read-made for garrett and i
Congrats! Looking forward to reading of your debate/IE exploits!
You might want to consider lightening either the text or the background. It's very hard to read.
It has been colored differently - is this better? I think that it needs some pictures or some sort of graphics - it's a very plain template....
Yeppers, this is much better. Much easier to read.
Pictures shouldn't be tricky. Just run a google search for images on whatever you're looking for. Suggest:
Pericles
Aspasia
Abraham Lincoln
Stephen Douglas
Cicero
Seneca
Winston Churchill
FDR
Susan B Anthony
Frederick Douglas
Sojourner Truth
