A successful entrepreneur and investor, I’ve known Steve Kenda for years. He also has been active in NH politics having run for NH Senate – we’ve talked with and interviewed him on numerous occasions here at GraniteGrok.
Other then the MicroInterview with Di Lothrup, all of the MicroInterviews I did were done after the rally had completed. Usually I try to ask just one or two questions (er, remember: micro) from all.

As the Democrats ramp up for the Presidential primary, we hear progressively louder demands for open borders, socialized health care, and increasingly absurd standards of political correctness.
