In an interview with i.e. writer Bridget Maher, Ken Connor tells why he came to Family Research Council. I was persuaded that the potential for impact on the cultural conversation, the cultural consensus, and the policies that flowed out of Washington, D.C., were extraordinary and outweighed the potential impact that one could have in most courts of law. Yes, he did influence me. He recommended me for the position. Cultural change is something that I m very interested in.
Cultural renewal is important for our country.
A renewed appreciation for the sanctity of life and the importance of the family are issues that I care deeply about. I don t want to miss the opportunity to try to shape people s thinking on them. Young people are much more computer literate than my generation. They get all kinds of information from the Internet and they are very computer savvy. We have just launched our brand new Web site that I think will be very appealing to young people.
