Biography: (Minimum 2-3 paragraphs)
Michael Emberton was born into a family that owned a large farm in eastern Kentucky on February 25th 1950. His family had long standing connections with both republican and democrat politicians in the state and were quite influential in the eastern part of the state. Despite this he was encouraged to make his own way and earn his own money, getting a job as a grocery boy when he was 14, he donated his first check to Barry Goldwater’s election campaign. He would attend the University of Kentucky graduating in the middle of the pack before volunteering to serve in the military for Vietnam, continuing his family’s tradition of military service. 
His family connections got him in the air force where he would fly C-130s in Vietnam from 1972-1975. In 1977 he would be honorably discharged with the rank of Captain. The next 3 years he spent working for his family on the farm and making connections with the community preparing for a career in politics. 
In 1980 the incumbent republican congressman of the 5th district retired and Emberton ran to take his seat. Backrolled by his family he easily won the election and became part of the ‘Reagan Revolution’ and began an almost 4 decade career representing the district and the longest serving Kentucky Republican.
Since 1980 he has been more or less a party line Republican, adopting whatever trends were popular at the time with the party mainstream and the president. The exceptions to this are whenever it directly benefits his district, for instance he was hard against an environmental bill until it allocated money specifically for cleaning waterways in eastern Kentucky. 
He was and is a war hawk for the war on terror, though he at times funneled money to improve security away from large cities and into his home district despite the low probability of attack. He would funnel money back to special interest groups, corporations and his home district. His long standing appropriations committee assignment has enabled a great deal of this, he gets away with it because he has been in power so long that he knows where all the political bodies are buried and could sink a number of other politicians. 
During the 2016 election he stayed out of the primary as his custom has been for every primary not involving a incumbent republican president. He endorsed Reed after the kentucky primary and organized a number of events in Kentucky to support his candidacy in the general. 
During the Reed admin he voted against the Dudley tax due to its impact on Coal country, but otherwise voted in favor of all republican initiatives. He supports Reed because he is leader of the Republican party
