I met Warren Kaul when I performed at the O Town Tea Party in Orlando, Florida. He was manning the Fair Tax booth. On stage, Warren expressed his displeasure with Obama’s stimulus “nightmare” and his plans to transform America.
Warren was born into extreme poverty and grew up in a two room shack in the hollows of Charleston, West Virginia. Encouraged by his mother, Warren was the first in his family to graduate high school. This was a major achievement for the Kaul family. Warren took it further and graduated college. Warren’s success inspired his two sisters to graduated college.
In the movie titled, “Rudy”, Rudy Ruettiger’s family were lower class steel workers. No Ruettiger had ever attended college. Rudy achieved the impossible by graduating from the University of Norte Dame. He broke his family’s paradigm. Several of his siblings followed earning college degrees. Warren is the “Rudy” of his family. It amazes me how pursuing your dream touches the lives of others in a positive way; a truth socialists do not understand.
Warren’s life has been full of challenges. He has suffered with essential tremors all of his life which made school very difficult for him. His career included teaching special education, sales, training and running his own business. At age 61 Warren was diagnosed with Attention Deficit Disorder with hyperactivity and symptoms of Asperger syndrome. He is retired.
Despite years of saving and preparing for retirement, Warren’s IRA’s are greatly depressed. As a result, he cannot remove money without taking a great loss. Thus, Warren and his wife Karen live on Social Security. “Although we are struggling, we are probably in better shape than most people our age.” said Warren.
While Warren is not a millionaire, which is the typical marker of great success, I could not help but admire how far this man has come from his very humble beginnings. Warren’s character, hard work and determination to be the best he could be is a great American story. It also confirms the greatness of our country which Obama is determined to change. I am proud to call Warren Kaul, a patriot brother in our battle to Take Back America.

“Anti-tax activists stage protest”

SNIPPET: “Cheering messages of limited government, lower taxes and states’ rights, thousands rallied yesterday at the Statehouse, hoping to continue a movement that began in the spring with nationwide tea parties.
The enthusiastic crowd took aim at government bailouts, rising national debt, “socialized” health care and even Columbus’ proposed income-tax increase.
If approved, the tax would increase from 2 percent to 2.5 percent and generate $90 million to $100 million a year. City voters will decide the issue on Tuesday.
“That’s $1 billion over the next 10 years taken out of wallets and given to an institution right over there that has proven to us that they can’t manage our money at all,” City Council candidate Matt Ferris told the crowd while pointing toward City Hall.
“Say ‘no’ to this massive tax.”
Organized by the Ohio Liberty Council, people arrived by the busload and expressed anger over issues such as taxes and government intrusion.”
