My First Post

My name is Emily "Cristin" and this is my first post on steemit! I am new to this, so I expect to make some mistakes...but I love to learn, so advice is welcome!

I am 26 years old and I am from Atlanta, GA. I am interested in learning about politics, science, and history. Those closest to me would probably tell you my interests are a little more like obsessions, but hey, at least I'm passionate. It all started in college, when I first learned about Dr. Ron Paul. His messages were unique and logical: promoting a free market, individual liberties, and non-interventionism abroad. Some might call me a "crazy libertarian," but I would encourage you to always consider the source. ;)

Although a lot of my friends consider themselves democrats or SJW wannabes, we are still able to have open discussions about politics without wanting to completely kill each other...most of the time.

I am going to Ron Paul's Peace and Prosperity 2017 conference in September. There is going to be so many great speakers and a Whistleblower Roundtable. So yeah, I'm pretty flipping excited.

I always try and keep an open mind and think positive! Nice to meet you!
