National Voice

Understand that if you’re going to speak out, make sure that you are informed on these matters. I think that’s where some people can get into trouble: if they are not quite informed on a subject but they bring the subject up. It’s easy to get cornered … so you better be prepared and ready to stand up for what you believe in and what you think is right.
