Our guest is Mike Russell from Shreveport, Louisiana and got his undergraduate in finance at UOFA and his MBA from UCLA. He comes from a family of republicans but views himself as more of a libertarian. He has never been involved in politics but has recently wanted to get involved. He hopes to run for office some day on a platform of balancing budgets and reducing government bloating. He has found it incredibly hard to go into the political world as an outsider with no family in politics as well as never having gotten involved in a party during college.
