Ben Collins for Wisconsin Lt. Governor

Written by David Frum on Wednesday November 11, 2009

I got to know Ben Collins when this former Special Forces Captain who served three tours in Afghanistan emailed me to express passionately held views on the conduct of the war. I had a chance to talk to him and was impressed by his intense commitment to politics and public policy. Now he is running for Lt. Governor of Wisconsin.

I got to know Ben Collins when this former Special Forces Captain who served three tours in Afghanistan emailed me to express passionately held views on the conduct of the war. He contributed some brilliant memoirs of his service to this site, which can be read here and here.

I had a chance to talk to him at length in person shortly after, and was startled and impressed by his intense commitment to politics and public policy. Now he is running for Lt. Governor of Wisconsin. His site is here, please view his video - if only because we're going to be hearing a lot more from him outside Wisconsin very soon.
