- JM Ivler has been active and involved with politics since he was a child walking the streets of Stamford CT knocking on doors for his fathers campaigns for public office. He grew up living across the street from Ben Wattenberg (Lyndon Johnson's speechwriter) and was deeply immersed in CT Democratic politics from a young age until he came to CA in 1979. After coming to CA and establishing himself JM continued to be active in politics working as staff on a number of presidential political campaigns and finally ran in the Democratic party primary for Congress in 1994 (CA-46 at the time - B-1 Bob Dornan's seat). After clearly not winning the primary JM focused on his career and went into semi-retiremt in 2002 from the CTO position of an Internet startup. Since then JM has been active in local politics in the Los Alamitos area where he is the technical person at losalnews.com (and an author) and also running oc4us.com a micro-blog aggregation site for Orange County. In his spare time JM is the CEO of EduCAD Learning Solutions, the company behind collegeentrancetestprep.com
