What makes someone trade business success for the hot seat of local politics?

Dave Kerpen reveals his fears as he prepares for his political debut in North Hempstead. Though he's spoken to crowds of 17,000 before, he admits he's "terrified" about launching his campaign.

Behind the scenes, Dave shares how he's crafting his first political speech with three key promises: boosting small businesses, creating transparent government, and cutting taxes while keeping services strong. His consultants even advised him to include "at least one Republican talking point"!

As Dave weighs whether to address recent controversial events in his launch speech, he offers rare insight into the balancing act of staying true to his "centrist" values while trying to unite a divided community.

Tune in for an honest look at a local dad, author, and business leader's jump into politics - and his plan to bring the principles from his Likeable books and companies  to town government!
