An independent thinker, Quentin R. Wittrock, created Principle Based Politics as a forum to bring attention to the need for government leaders, particularly in our federal government, to put the right principles ahead of partisanship (and all other considerations). Wittrock believes candidates and elected officials should govern the United States pursuant to principles, philosophies, and political positions that will help all Americans.
Wittrock retired in 2019 after 32 years as an international business litigation attorney with a large law firm headquartered in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
