President's Message

 

As the vitally important November election rapidly approaches, we on the right side of the aisle in Hollywood are working hard to ensure a Republican victory. It's been very difficult in the past for those in the Hollywood community to "come out" as a conservative. Things are changing though. We were one of the first openly conservative groups in Hollywood but there are more springing up. This to satisfy the pent up demand of those who need to express themselves, but have been suppressed by the left wing culture that exists in this town.

We have proudly worked closely with David Zucker in the past few years on some right-leaning commercials that make their point using one of David's most powerful tools...comedy. This fall, with the release of the film "An American Carol", there will be no question as to which side of the aisle David is on. He is really risking it all for what he believes in. It is therefore imperative that we support his efforts and promote this film....Tell everyone you know to go see "An American Carol" on it's opening weekend. The success of this film will not only mean that our message is getting out there, it will also show others that they can make a conservative, pro-American film that can make money. This will be the beginning of changing the culture in Hollywood for the good!

Mini Political Bio

I’m a working actor (SAG) and am originally from the Boston area, having moved to LA in January 1998. I was very active in the Republican Party in Massachusetts for many years, and thought I’d take a break once in California. That didn’t last long however since, once it’s in your blood, it stays in your blood.

 My political activities in Massachusetts started when, as a high school student in 1976, I got involved with the presidential primary campaign, and had the honor of shaking Ronald Reagan’s hand at a political rally in Boston.

 At college, which was then a bastion of the left, I became the President of the University of Massachusetts College Republicans. I also hosted a radio talk show on WMUA radio in Amherst, MA. After graduating, I became very involved with the Massachusetts Republican Party (similar to the California Central Committee) and was the Chairman of the Lexington Republican town committee. In 1988, I ran for the State Senate and won the Republican nomination. In the 1990’s, I joined Republican Governor Bill Weld’s administration, managing two state agencies. I was also a political commentator during the 1992 presidential election on “Boston Common”, a Sunday morning news show on WNAC-TV in Boston. Lately, I have appeared on the Fox News Channel, MSNBC, and numerous radio talk shows throughout the country.

As President of the Hollywood Republicans, I have worked hard to build up our membership and to be a force within the Hollywood Community to counter the ever prominent "Hollywood Left". It has also been a goal of mine to partner with the many other Republican groups and organizations here in Southern California to promote our philosophy and elect Republicans to office.
