Ken Arnold - Home

My candidacy, and any terms I am honored to serve, are, and will be, about reason, service and good government.

Reason in that we now see too many politicians blindly following political and economy “ideologies” which they do not fully understand and often misapply. This results in bad policies arising from many points along the political spectra.

Service in that public service and the general good were the motive and purpose envisioned by the founding fathers for our elected officials in a democracy.

While my life has had set backs and trials as most have and the county is not quite the one I grew up in, I feel truly blessed to be able to live in what I believe is among the best places in the world, in the greatest country in the world, and through truly great times in human history. In some small effort at repayment, I feel duty bound to do what I can to protect this country, state, and county, to preserve the environment and to serve ALL the people of the district, for the present but even more so for the children and the future.
It is my perception that the incumbent’s interests predominately are in amassing political power and that he seems to think that just following his party’s line and occasionally tossing favors to some of influence and power and to some fraction of his constituents is enough for the public while he builds a political machine in the heart of Orange County.  

I am not looking to be a career politician, but to apply my intelligence, knowledge, experience and energy to truly discerning and serving the best interests of all residents of the district, the state and nation.
