| Introduction | I am a married to a wonderful wife and I am a father of two beautiful children. One born in 2004 and another born in 2006. I am a program manager for a high tech company in Austin, Texas. I have a degree in Finance and a MBA. I have followed politics since I was 6 years old when I campaigned for a Democrat relative who was running for Lt. Governor of Oklahoma. I campaigned for George Bush in 1987 and I was rewarded with tickets to attend his victory celebration at the George R. Brown convention center in Houston. I have been a Travis county delegate but I have sat quietly over the last 4 years. I have become increasingly cynical of both parties and I identify more with some of the Libertarian views but also realize that we are in a two party system. I enjoy gardening, bicycling, weightlifting, Texas Hold 'em Poker, Fantasy Football, internet surfing and Jesus. I believe in God, low taxes, fiscal responsibility, legalization of drugs, free markets, abortion is wrong but not the only issue out there, 9/11 was done by Islamic terrorists, man landed on the moon, Keith Oberman is a joke, Texas is the greatest state, Ronald Reagan politics and no DH in baseball. |
