On December 26th 2014, I sat down with my wife, Julie, and discussed my thoughts with her about running for the Mississippi legislature. I had never been elected to any position and was definitely a novice at politics. I didn’t know how to run a campaign, how to raise money or even how much money I needed to raise. I wasn't even 100% sure when the legislature was in session. But I did know that I felt the need to get involved because I felt our nation and our state were headed in the wrong direction.
