Ken Poorman Politics . . .

I've been a Democrat . . .

And

I've been a Republican . . .

I guess I'm a conservative... I like small government, low taxes, free-enterprise, States Rights, personal responsibility and strong national defense.  I think more citizens should get involved in politics . . .

In 1963 I registered Democrat, and a few years later switched to Republican, and in 1967 I was elected Chairman of the Clinton County Young Republician Club.  I followed Rich Novosel, and held that position for several years until relieved by Mike Williamson, Esq.  I had also been Treasurer and Vice Chairman of the organization previously.  I got to meet a lot of Rep players at the four day National Yourg Republican Leadership Training School in 1971, including the President and First Lady in the White House.

Let's see . . . I liked Ike (WW2 hero) and saw him in Lock Haven on a train once when I was a kid; I liked Kennedy (Apollo Mission) and saw him on his inaguration day when I stood cordon duty for him; I liked Barry Goldwater (flat tax) and got invited to his ranch once; I liked Nixon (negative income tax) and met him in the White House in 1971;  I liked Reagan too (tear down the wall).
