Marcus Blake is an author that that writes not for
entertainment, but for the great art of telling a story. He
writes to tell a truth; it’s a truth about the human
condition that comes from the observations made from
everyday life. As he would tell you, writing is his passion,
his career, and his source for inspiration. He travels
throughout the world most of year lecturing, teaching,
acting, and writing. Currently Marcus Blake works as an
actor, model, musician, and writer in Dallas.
Politically this is what Marcus Blake believes. Marcus is a
liberal Democrat who believes in equality for all races and
genders despite sexual preference; that the lower and middle
class should be protected at all cost. He believes that
the major problem with conservatism in America is because its
mainly controlled by the Christian Right and also believes
that Religion has no place in politics. But Marcus also
believes the Constitution is the only thing protecting
America from the totalitarianism that plagues other
countries just like Clint Stutts. Now Marcus is
disillusioned by the Democratic Party and that there is not
much difference between both parties and that the government
really doesn't care about its citizens.
