Retired after a long career in international logistics. I don’t believe my liberal arts education was a waste of time.

“State of the Union”, a film starring Spencer Tracy and Katherine Hepburn tells the tale of a successful businessman who decides to run for office. He hopes to bring sanity and common sense to Washington. He quickly finds out that in order to win he will need to radically change his position on key issues. Does he lie and say anything to get elected? Or stick to his message and likely lose. This is a comedy/ drama, and Ms. Hepburn is fantastic.
