  Are you the right person to lead your company? You’re in the 
   driver’s seat of a growing company that an entrepreneur―possibly you― made 
   the First Decision to start. Now, imagine your Board of Directors asking you 
   question after question about your business knowledge and decision-making 
   process. Pass―you leave the meeting knowing you have the skills to lead your 
   organization for the next three years. Fail―you are put on an improvement 
   plan or need to fi nd a replacement. Author Randy H. Nelson knows that 
   business doesn’t work this way―the majority of Entrepreneurial CEOs are not 
   required to be Qualified to lead their organizations. In The Second 
   Decision, Randy has combined his 6 years of Naval service, 25 years of 
   business experience, and thousands of hours with business leaders to develop, 
   The Entrepreneur Qual Card™. Chapter by chapter, you will discover whether 
   you are a Leader that will put the company on your shoulders, a Role-Player 
   that takes another position in the company, or a Creator that moves on to the 
   next big idea. Determine your role and make the hard leadership decisions to 
   help your company beat the odds and keep growing for years to come. Whichever 
   role suits you best, The Second Decision will give you the self-awareness and 
   the step-by-step guide to be―or to train―the Qualified leader that your 
   company needs.

  The Facts of Reconstruction

  After the American Civil War, John R. Lynch, who had been a slave in Mississippi, began his political career in 1869 by first becoming Justice of the Peace, and then Mississippi State Representative. He was only 26 when he was elected to the US Congress in 1873. There, he continued to be an activist, introducing many bills and arguing on their behalf. Perhaps his greatest effort was in the long debate supporting the Civil Rights Act of 1875 to ban discrimination in public accommodations.In 1884 Lynch was the first African American nominated after a moving speech by Theodore Roosevelt to the position of Temporary Chairman of the Republican National Convention in Chicago, Illinois. During the Spanish-American War of 1898, he was appointed Treasury Auditor and then Paymaster under the Republicans. In 1901, he began serving with the Regular Army with tours of duty in the United States, Cuba, and the Philippines.Lynch retired from the Army in 1911, then married Cora Williams. They moved to Chicago, where he practiced law. He also became involved in real estate. After his death in Chicago 1939 at the age of 92, he was buried with military honors in Arlington National Cemetery. He was entitled to this as a Congressman and veteran.After the turn of the centutry, Lynch wrote a book, The Facts of Reconstruction, and several articles criticizing the then-dominant Dunning School historiography. Dunning and followers had emphasized the views of former slave owners and routinely downplayed any positive contributions of African Americans during Reconstruction, as well as suggesting they could not manage any political power. Lynch argued that blacks had made substantial contributions during the period. Since he participated directly in Reconstruction-era governments, Lynch's book is considered a primary source in study of the period. (Introduction by Guero and Wikipedia.)
