Ken sees how important it is for us to create and maintain a smaller Government that knows its limits.  Ken knows that our nation was not built by a Federal Government that controls a quarter of the economy but by one that encourages the freedom to pursue new and better ideas.  Ken knows that, without a vital and motivated business community – from the very small to the very large business – the American Dream will be a thing of the past, not just for the wealthy but for everyone, rich and poor.  The recent data on the increase in poverty tells us something we already knew – you cure poverty though a vibrant economy, not by “redistributing the wealth.”  I want Ken as our Senator not to make me richer, but to provide the same opportunities that I had to my children and the underprivileged throughout America.
