Did multilingual ballots and illegal alien voting determine who won close races in the last election? Who knows for sure? But what I can tell you, for certain, is that, every year, more and more Americans are having their votes cancelled out by ten...
Very good article on selling with written words and ads: “People don’t read advertising, they read what’s interesting.
