After Helene, The Economy and Why Not a Woman President?

Ag Cimmissioner Tyler Harper, Steve Moor and Elisa Bannan Jones

Americans are forward thinking, forward looking people. We don’t like to dwell on the past but at times like the devastation of Hurricane Helene in the crop lands of Southwest Georgia, we can’t forget what they are going through. Generational crops have been lost and there is a lot of work to do. Ag Commissioner Tyler Harper joins me to talk about what the status is.

Then Steve Moore helps us look at the closing arguments for the Trump and Harris campaigns as it looks right now.

Finally, Just in time for the waning days of a Presidential battle between a male and a female contender comes a new book, Women Striving to Overcome Bias to Become President of the United States -- Ladies, Babies, Money & Honey, explaining what a women candidate must overcome to become the leader of the free world.

Author Elisa Bannon-Jones, a veteran CHRO executive and business leader, has researched women's history in U.S. society, from the Pilgrims to today’s preponderance of women in national politics.  She has found several themes that continue to permeate society and may prove problematic to Kamala Harris.

While I support women running, I will vote for ideas not gender. But women have several strikes against them that in my opinion are more about how we approach running compared to a man and not just whether we are male or female.
