Congress is considering re-authorizing No Child Left Behind. Tell Congressman Kline that this is the wrong approach - we need real education reform that puts parents and communities in charge!

This isn't the way to reform No Child Left Behind.

After conceding the 2014 endorsement to John Kline (who won by less than 3%) and upholding my promise to honor the endorsement, I am formally announcing my 2016 campaign for U.S. Congress at a press conference on Monday, January 26, at 1 PM, at the State Office Building, Room 181, St. Paul.

Thank you for your overwhelming encouragement to continue this campaign to challenge politics-as-usual.

Please join me as we move forward with OUR campaign. I hope to see you there.

Tell Congressman Kline to elect a principled conservative as Speaker of the House!

I want to thank everyone who came out to support me today. It was been a long road and a powerful and humbling experience. I also wish to congratulate Congressman John Kline on winning the Republican endorsement. We must all work together to keep our district red in November.

The CD2 convention is tomorrow, and I'll be seeing many of you there. If I become your next Congressman, here is a brief statement on what some of my priorities will be.

GersonForCongress – If Elected, What Would be my Priorities?

First and foremost, I will uphold my oath of office to defend the U.S. Constitution. And I will justify every vote, using social media, based on constitutionality and in terms of our three guiding principles; limited government, free markets and individual liberty. Moreover, I will champion the f...

Congressman John Kline continues to accuse me of lying, even as he keeps relying on half-truths and falsehoods to attack my character and dodge the real issue: his voting record. Here is my response.

GersonForCongress – John Kline accuses David Gerson of Lying

John Kline’s campaign continues to send out emails and letters stating that “Gerson is lying” about several subjects, but never backs up the claims with any quotes from me.

Tomorrow is the final BPOU Convention in the Second Congressional District. I look forward to meeting with the delegates and alternates at the MN Senate District 54 Republicans convention tomorrow!

The Senate District 51 Republicans convention is tomorrow! I look forward to meeting with the many delegates and alternates that we have been calling and visiting with.

Congressman John Kline has insisted that he never supported ObamaCare. In reality however, he recently voted with the Democrats against a majority of Republicans to continue funding the program. Follow the link below to read my latest blog post.

Kline claims he did not vote for ObamaCare, but when America was outraged that Obama had lied to us about being able to keep our doctor and the Republicans were standing together to de-fund Obamacare, Kline voted with the Democrats against the majority of Republicans to fund ObamaCare (HR 2775 – Oct...

Congressman John Kline has sent out a letter to delegates claiming that his endorsement challenger David Gerson "sponsored a controversial 9/11 'truth' event."

The event in question called Truth in Media was hosted by Liberty Minnesota and co-sponsored by the Minnesota Tea Party Alliance, the Republican Liberty Caucus, and several other credible activist organizations.

9/11 was not a topic, to say nothing of 9/11 "truth."

But even if it had been a "9/11 'truth' event," using the Kline campaign's fallacious reasoning of guilt by association, Kline himself would be indicted as a 9/11 truther for his own affiliation with another co-sponsor of the event.

As the Chair on the committee that provides oversight to the Department of Education, why is John Kline supporting Common Core?

"Kline’s chairmanship has fueled his commanding fundraising lead over his prospective opponents."

“I have never been one to shy away from a challenge; in fact it is a driver for me. That is why I appreciate the people who take on the status quo to spread the message of constitutionally limited government. The Gerson campaign really is a story of David and Goliath. And you know how that ends.” –…
