Commander Kirk Lippold, USN (Ret.) with Tony Mattivi, Kansas' next AG

Show me your friends and I will show you who you are.  Commander Kirk Lippold, United States Navy (Ret.) is a friend of our friend, Tony Mattivi.  Captain Lippold was the Commanding Officer of the USS Cole, the Destroyer that was bombed by Al Qaeda October 12, 2000.  Many believe it was the pre-curser to 9/11.  Commander Lippold and Tony Mattivi became friends as they worked together to bring the Terrorists who carried out this cowardly act, to Justice.  The Truth about Leadership is it exposes who you really are when you answer the call.  And Tony Mattivi and Kirk Lippold answered.  We use words like courage, honor and integrity as labels but these are not labels— they are the elements swarming frenetically inside of heroes as they evaluate the situation and give us cues to the next right step.  We want that Leadership in our lives. We need that Leadership in our lives.  And it is my honor to share this conversation with Commander Kirk Lippold and the next Attorney General of Kansas, Mr. Tony Mattivi.
