A nation does not have to be cruel to be tough." — Franklin Roosevelt    Joseph T Wright School: Louisiana State University Member of: Louisiana State University Policy interests: Fair and clean politics, Religion Well, my name is Joey Wright.  I am a sophomore at LSU, majoring in Political Science and minoring in Religious Studies.  I'm definitely new to all of this, but I would love to get involved.  I am tired of all the mudslinging in politics.  People cannot be civil anymore with one another.  I am ready to see politicians and students work together for the good of our communities, our schools and our country rather than for the good of their political party or themselves.  I really would like to get involved.  Let me know how I can help.   The Roosevelt Institution is a nonpartisan, nonprofit national think tank devoted to bringing students' policy ideas to the policy process.
