Warren lives in Seattle, Washington and is married with two daughters now out of college and off mom and dad’s payroll. He graduated from the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School in 1962 and volunteered for the U. S. Navy. Trained in nuclear weapons, most of his naval service was on the USS Oriskany (CVA-34).

He remains active in politics chairing the 2004 Bush-Cheney campaign in the 46th Legislative District.
I do occasionally read your stuff. Thank you for this service. Today’s Seattle Times has an interesting spredsheet that categorizes all of the 16 R and D presidential candidates philosophies on issues.

A kindergarten teacher gave her class a ‘ show and tell’ assignment. Each student was instructed to bring in an object to share with the class that represented their religion. The first student got up in front of the class and said, ‘My name is Benjamin and I am Jewish and this is a Star of David.’ The second student got up in front of the class and said, ‘My name is Mary. I’m a Catholic and this is a Rosary.’ The third student got in up front of the class and said, ‘My name is Tommy. I am Presbyterian, and this is a casserole.’
