PICTURED HERE: Lincoln takes a moment to grant me a quick interview.WHITE COUNTY COURTHOUSE--In the midst of a bustling courthouse, White County Judge Michael Lincoln stopped to give us a few words of wisdom for politically aspiring students.
"Get involved! This country is in dire need of good leadership...anybody who sets their minds to be involved in politics can be successful, and we cannot sit and rest on the rules of those who have gone before us, but the younger generation needs to understand that a great country doesn't just happen- it takes strong moral leadership...start somewhere. Don't be afraid!"
To back up his point, Lincoln proceeded to share the tale of younger Republican Jonathan Dismang (29), who is currently running against Kieth Williams as a hopeful representative for District 49. Dismang called him just three years ago to ask if he should run. Lincoln told him to give it a go and get his name out if nothing else. Now, Dismang is in the midst of a seemingly successful career, according to Lincoln.
"It looks like he's going to win this race, he's up by 300 votes! So, we'll see how it goes."
