Sheri Smith is a woman that feels anyone and everyone can and should make a
difference in our neighborhood, city, state, country, and world.
Sheri graduated from high school in southern Wisconsin. She joined the Navy
and served her country proudly for over three years as a Spanish linguist.
While in the Navy, she met her husband, Shae, and fell madly in love. They
married and decided to have a child, which was the start of their now full
home.
Her love for people and education spurred Sheri to make the decision to run
for president. Her desire is to educate her children, family, community, state,
country, and world on the foundations of government and the responsibility of
every citizen and immigrant to be knowledgeable in these areas.
Sheri feels that people need to be more educated in the voting process and
the basics of government. Through posts on this blog Sheri hopes to bring a light into the darkness of political ignorance
blanketing our country. She has so much to learn herself, so she desires to take
the country along with her on this long journey of increasing wisdom about the
democracy we live in and the world governments around us.
