WARD: You need to meet this guy

| March 12, 2010 6:24 AM

The other night, I had the distinct pleasure of meeting Vaughn Ward and his lovely wife, Kirsten. Vaughn is running for Congress, in the Idaho 1st District, and although I don’t normally tout politicians, Ward impressed me. It would be a shame for him to get lost the murkiness of politics, because we need this born leader fighting for our Idaho values in Washington.

Bright, articulate, and sincere, with thought-provoking ideas for attacking the problems we are facing in the economy, health care, immigration, jobs and taxes, Vaughn is a former Marine Major and a CIA Operations Officer with a Masters in Business Administration, who has served his Country honorably and with distinction.

A true patriot, his personal résumé reads as a blueprint for the consummate leader; something we are sorely lacking in Washington.

A fourth generation Idahoan, Mr. Ward spoke to my Idahoan ancestral values and concerns, and after learning of his background, political positions, and accomplishments, I determined that I had met a man of integrity, honor, and dedication to purpose. Do yourself and Idaho a favor; meet Vaughn Ward and you’ll come away with a new glimmer of hope for our Country’s future.
