A 47-year old politician is rising through the ranks using charisma. He's a RINO (Republican In Name Only) who wins a Senate seat in Texas. When he starts to run for President, a journalist delves into his background and finds he was born in Dallas the exact moment Kennedy was killed. The reporter doesn't believe in reincarnation, but nonetheless he finds amazing similarities between this guy and Kennedy...not the backgrounds in which they grew up, but personalities and the way they handle crises, skirt chasing, etc. Soon, the reporter finds he's not the only one "on to this." Sinister forces are after this new guy, and the reporter must decide if he should report the story, or do what he can to stop it.

Might consider reading it. As long as it isn't too politically focused or biased. Do you write?

Have always wanted to write books, but settled on writing articles. You can take a book and make it your own world. My neighbor writes books and when he told me about his main character, I thought "hell, I can do better than that."

Yea, I write as well. It's very difficult, but like you said it allows you to be so much more creative. If you could keep it focused on the strange aspect of the plot I'd definitely be interested. Or have something unknown to the reader for quite some time.

I like the premise behind it, but I wonder if it would work with the reincarnated Kennedy as your main character? Eh, probably not -- I just don't know if the main character is as interesting as the overall story idea. Maybe the main character could somehow be related to Kennedy?

It seems more cinematic than literary, to me.

      Boy the flyers look good early. Lots of bad plays and slow start by our team. Hope that changes before the score changes.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      I guess I should have stipulated outside the sacred cow.   I complained from year one that Bryce should compete for and win the starting job on his own merit but no he was just handed it. I have been right there with everyone that wants competition.  But I don’t really have a huge problem with it for this season the way it has gone because where are the viable people we don’t have to trade for? I actually am okay with tiny hands Pickett because he is so close to Bryce arm strength wise and to be honest, skill wise. Probably. And it is only a one year deal.  That also takes into account that the QB class is looking stacked next year and if Young fails miserably then we get either a reset or a real competition and there will be more guys that I would like looking at in the FA QB class next year as well.    I sort of accept where we are this year and look at it as another treading water year (at QB). I just want to get to next year with some clarity. More than anything. And they did empty out the room. Again, who was really there for us?  And I know it would not be a true competition at this point anyway. They are giving him the year, like it or not.    Also I don’t give a poo about winning games IF he sucks and or goes down after sucking because draft position and that stacked QB class.  And I want out from under him So Bad.     So I guess it is several factors that lessen my anxiety over his backup this particular season.    I am not trying to convince anyone, but you asked. That’s how I look at it.
