My daughter came home from her graduate school last weekend and brought another student who was from China.  Her friend asked me why I got involved in politics.  I can understand how difficult this may be to understand for someone who is from a Communist country, but it’s a good question for all of us to answer.

The greatest reason for us to get involved is because we can make a difference!  We live in a Country where our actions today will affect the future generations.  This is a serious and powerful motivator.

Our system is designed so that our ideas and the way we act on our ideas have an effect.  As I have traveled around the district, it surprises me to see how much enthusiasm exists for our  effort to challenge the status quo.
