An excerpt from Texas Got It Right!:
Most Americans have never heard of him. Heck, most Texans probably haven’t either. But if there’s one guy who embodies everything that’s right about the way we’re doing business in Texas today, it’s Richard Fisher.
“When I was sworn into office, I checked all politics and partisanship at the door. I am neither an ‘R’ nor a ‘D’; I am politically indfferent.
