As someone with family ties to rural NE Missouri and agriculture, I can't think of a better person who will represent my values and fight for me. Wes embodies the rural Missouri values of family agriculture. I will be proud to cast my vote for him on Tuesday!

I heard he was thinking about terminating his membership with that "insurance company," but it seems to be pretty difficult to leave a group that you don't currently belong to. I guess it makes sense. If you aren't going to vote with the concerns of Missouri's family farmers in mind, why join with them and have to pretend that you agree with them more than half the time (and that's being quite generous)?
