Default Profile of David Kirkham in The Deseret News

On Sunday the Deseret News did a profile on me. The title in the newspaper was

"THE MAN ON THE RIGHT"

Entrepreneur warns against dangers of government in economics | Deseret News

An interesting article--thanks for sharing. One has to appreciate the passion and zeal that you exhibit--whether in cars, politics, or getting in shape.

If I ever decide to sell my current Cobra I will be purchasing a Kirkham--awesome cars made by good people.

Keep up the good work.

Very interesting and informative read for me.
Also interesting and sad/scary (you name it) were a lot of the comments.
Easy to see they are keeping their heads where the sun doesn't shine and
have no understanding of free enterprise and what made this country great in the day, which is passing us by now with the new "change".

Thanks for sharing, David.

After having been so involved with politics these past couple of years on the outside, I am beginning to realize that, perhaps, I must one day actually be in politics to make the changes we so desperately need.

There will always be nay-sayers. That goes with the territory. It is our job to persuade them freedom causes prosperity for all.

I had to give up whispering and find a microphone. Thanks for all your help and advice over the years. I certainly appreciate it very much.
