This All-American Story Starts In... Germany.
An American soldier met a beautiful German dental hygienist and they fell in love.
Samuel Ronan's story begins in Germany, where his father was serving in the United States Army. The stars aligned. His dad met and fell in love with his mom, and they created Samuel.

The young family returned to the United States a few years later, settling in Lancaster, Ohio. Samuel was just six years old when Lancaster became his boyhood home. In high school, he showed early signs of being a community connector and achiever. He was an exchange student with the Rotary International Organization, and got his first taste of international relations when he served as a junior ambassador to Rosenheim, Germany.

Military Service Is A Family Tradition
When the Recession of 2008 sidetracked his dreams of college and an Air Force commission, Samuel was determined to serve his country anyway.
Samuel enlisted in the United States Air Force. While serving overseas, Samuel worked hard, completing a degree in Applied Sciences and earning early promotions throughout his military career. Samuel's hard work and leadership ability were noticed early on. He was singled out to take on positions of leadership and extra responsibility. He earned a reputation for uniting and inspiring higher performance in entire squadrons, achieving tremendous gains in performance and operational efficiency.

While many of those accomplishments may look flashier on paper, Samuel's most cherished achievement was serving in the Base Honor Guard. Bringing reverence to military ceremonies and bearing solemn witness to the funerals of fallen soldiers was one of the most meaningful aspects of his military career.

"No one is representing the American people."
"I know what it is to start from the bottom. I have a blue collar job and I know what it means to live paycheck to paycheck. I'm fighting for the working class because
I am the working class."
The two week government shut down in October of 2013 made it clear to Samuel that our government was more beholden to political party feuds and corporate influence than concerned with the welfare of working class Americans. At that moment, he made a commitment to restoring government to the people.

Samuel is dedicated to lifting the your voice above the clamor of corruption and greed that dominates both our economy and society. His mission is to make sure you are heard, and that we put people before politics.
