| Info | Kevin Tull, of Kansas City, is a parent, veteran, graphic artist and longtime Libertarian activist and writer. His promise to the people of Missouri and America is simple: "I will keep my oath of office to uphold and defend the Constitution so that, as your Senator, I will work to expand your freedoms and not diminish them." As the Libertarian Party's 2004 candidate for US Senate, he's secured a number of publicity coups for the party by holding his "major party" opponents' feet to the fire on the campaign trail and in debates. "The real contrast isn't between Nancy Farmer and Kit Bond," he says. "It's between the two of them and me. They're both big-government candidates. I'm the small-government candidate in the race."
In his campaign, Kevin has emphasized the role of small business in Missouri's -- and America's -- economy, and the for a "permanent vacation from the encroachments of government" which stifle innovation and competition. "You can't expect an economy to grow and thrive when government has its boot on that economy's neck," he says.
Tull is also the choice for pro-gun Missourians in this year's Senate election. Among all candidates on the ballot, only Tull received an "A" rating from Gun Owners of America -- incumbent Republican Christopher "Kit" Bond received a "C" for his past anti-gun votes, and Democratic challenger Nancy Farmer an "F" for her stated anti-Second Amendment sentiments.
Finally, along with more "traditional" Libertarian issues stands such as ending the "War on Drugs" and getting government out of education, Tull is taking the tough stand on defense that Missourians expect, require -- and aren't getting from any other Senate candidate. Based on his publicly stated opposition to US military adventurism in Iraq, he's the endorsed candidate of Congress for Peace for US Senate in Missouri. "Missourians deserve a pro-defense Senator," says Kevin. "Not a pro-pork Senator, and not a pro-preemptive war Senator, but a Senator who takes his responsibility to defend the nation seriously. As a veteran -- unlike either of my opponents -- I'll make the defense of the nation one of my top priorities and help restructure our military organization to meet the challenges of the 21st century."
