  • State Senator Richard Posthumus: a Profile
    State Senator Richard Posthumus: A Profile by David Kimball, Senior Consultant for Public Policy At age 40 Senator Dick Posthumus regularly is heralded as one of the brightest stars of Michigan's Republican Party. His star still is rising: The election that just gave Posthumus his third Senate term also propelled his close, longtime friend John Engler to the governorship, and in the Senate Republican caucus last week Posthumus won the majority leader's post, a position formerly held by Engler. Respected by his colleagues and widely considered a born politician with uncanny tactical instincts, Posthumus is unassumingly self-confident and wears an easy smile on a youthtd, untroubled countenance. He credits much of this interpemnal ease to the fact that he punctuates his time at the capitol with the daiIy commute to his AIto (near Grand Rapids) home where he grows cash crops on a 600-acre family farm. "You can get so deeply into politics that everything else becomes secondary and family life tends to be destroyed," he says. "When I first decided to xun I made a commitment that I was not going to let that happen-that my family was going to come first no matter what. One of the ways I accomplish that is by going home every night." Although Posthumus occasionally stays in Lansing after a late session, these exceptions are relatively rare. "When I get home, there are four kids dngaround hollering, and all of a sudden I'm back to reality. There's no lobbyist taking me out to dinner telling me what a great legislator I am." "I can honestly say," he muses, "that I could walk away from this job tomorrow-not without some feeling of loss-but with no regret.
