The interviews, posted here in story form, cover the time in each governor's life between the day he or she decided to run for their state's highest office and ends on the date they were elected to that office. There is no regard for political affiliation or the governors' records as their state's highest executive. These stories are intended to allow a reader, interested in politics to witness roadmaps, one for each of the 15 highest elected offices these men and women sought and won. The stories are intended to serve as a friendly alternative to Machiavelli's "The Prince."  In the coming months The Philipsburg Mail,  will publish a hard copy publication of these interviews. Tom Mullen (paperboy@vcn.com) started as a paperboy in 1972.
