About what happened on that day. About what it means. And maybe most importantly, what it will mean for the future. 9\/11 was a moment that horrified the world. But in that same moment, it galvanized us. It unified us. And it helped define the trajectory of nearly everyone\u2019s life from that point forward.<\/p>\n<p>And so on this anniversary, we reflect. On where we\u2019ve been and where we\u2019re headed.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile this week, the historic and divisive presidential debate showed us all what the future might look like. For better or worse. And we\u2019re digging into it from a uniquely independent perspective\u2014yes, to include the Taylor Swift news.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But also this week, just blocks from the World Trade Center site, there was another vision of the future being presented. An independent and unifying future. One we can all share in, and one that\u00a0 you\u2014as a listener of this show\u2014are already a part of.<\/p>\n<p>This week saw the official introduction of the nine Independent Veterans of America endorsed independent veteran candidates from all across the country. From local counties in South Dakota to the US Senate in Washington. An Inspiring and dynamic group of independent veterans that are working to shape a better future for us all.
