Michael T. McPhearson joins Jim Wohlgemuth to discuss the dilemma of Veteran Deportation and Memorial Day.  Michael participated in an NAACP Town Hall concerning the Naturalization of Veterans.  Unfortunately, non-citizens will join the US Military, thinking it is a path to citizenship, and find out, nope.  Michael spoke at that event, sharing the efforts VFP takes to help these veterans.  We also watched the film "Bring Them Home" and heard from a panel that included Zahid Chaudhry, VFP chapter president, and currently fighting to stay in the country.   Then Michael gave a Memorial Day speech in front of the Federal Building in downtown Seattle, which was then published in the South Seattle Emerald.  We discuss the speech and reflect on Memorial Day.  Michael then shares his vision of VFP.

Mission accomplished as Ron from WY stepped up to the microphone with me, a long time fan of the show he and his wife were enjoying the NRA convention when they took me up on my offer! Funny how others were scared toi get on the mic…but not Ron who originally hails from Brooklyn as you’ll soon hear! His NY came out and off he went. Love it and so will you!
