An interview with Independent Candidate: D’James E. Rogers II
In today’s candidate interview, we’re going to feature Mr. D’James E. Rogers II of West Memphis. As was previously mentioned in this series of unique articles, the whole purpose is to bring the candidate straight to you. It’s meant to both educate and inform the voter on the platform and ideas that each person running has for the 54th District of Arkansas. The full audio of course is available on www.residents4Arkansas.com Let’s begin today’s discussion, by first talking a little bit about who Mr. Rogers is, and where exactly he comes from.
For those of you whom are familiar with our district, West Memphis should ring a loud bell. Mr. Rogers is a lifelong resident of the West Memphis area, and attended high school in West Memphis. He was born on June 8th 1979. He’s also a small business owner within the city and he attended and graduated college at the; University of Arkansas Pine Bluff. Coincidentally enough, he majored in Business Administration. He’s also married and has four children, and his wife works for Mid South Community College. Within the last ten years he has also worked in Washington D.C. with former Senator Blanche Lincoln as an assistant. Mr. Rogers views the experience gained in working with the senator as a very valuable thing, especially in his ability to connect and reach out to members of other political parties. If elected, he wants to work with the local college to find new and innovative ways to attain and keep the younger people in our area. He has a particular interest in the field of Renewable Energy Technology, “Green” jobs and he wants to use his small business skills to help lure more of this growing industry into our area.
