John Mues, candidate for U.S. Senate, talks about the challenge of growing up in a low-income single parent household. He stresses the importance and encouragement of mentors and teachers who enabled him to enter the U. S. Naval Academy and begin a distinguished career of military service. After the military, a broad range of private sector experiences (technology, teaching, entrepreneur) gave him "a unique skill set". However, he emphasizes that it is not his skill set alone, but his empathy and compassion that makes him the best candidate to represent the people of Montana, and a formidable opponent to incumbent Steve Daines.
