QUALIFICATIONS: How does your experience prepare you for the duties of a convention delegate?
A life-long Republican, I was privileged to serve two terms on the Baltimore County Council (1990-1998) and was twice elected a delegate to the Republican National Convention (for George H.W. Bush in 1992 and for Senator Robert Dole in 1996). Presented the 2016 Lifetime Achievement Award by the Baltimore County Republican Central Committee, I serve now as a mentor and volunteer for Republican candidates seeking public office in Maryland. I strongly support Governor Nikkie Haley for President.
SELECTION CRITERIA: What factors were most important in deciding to pledge your support to this candidate?
I admire Nikkie Haley’s sound record as governor of South Carolina, strong advocacy for America’s interests as U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations, and conservative core values as a candidate for president. I share her support for Israel and Ukraine, a strong immigration policy, and a balanced Federal budget. I also appreciate her civility and commitment to maintaining our constitutional democracy.
