“If ever a time should come, when vain and aspiring men shall possess highest seats in government, our country will stand in need of its experienced patriots to prevent its ruin.”
– Samuel Adams
A native Californian, Robert Vaughn was born in 1959 at the U.S. Naval Hospital in San Diego. Raised and educated in Los Angeles County, the former Aviation Technician proudly served from 1979 through 1983, under his Commander-in-Chief Ronald Reagan. Robert held high level top-secret clearance, was involved with squadron operations, and was responsible for tracking Russian nuclear submarines operating in the Pacific Ocean, with great attention to the entire west coast of the United States.

After serving honorably in our US Navy, Robert worked in various fields, from private security to owning and managing a printed circuit board manufacturing company, whose customers included many established Silicon Valley electronic and computer corporations.
Robert currently works for the Department of Children and Family Services in the Adoptions Division and was recently promoted to the Probation Department within the Revenue Enhancement Division. Robert is also a member of SEIU 721.
In 2008, Robert ran for and was elected to the 44th Assembly District Central Committee of Los Angeles County. In December 2008, he was elected Second Vice Chairman to its executive board. Today he humbly assumes all his responsibilities on the many boards he participates on as he serves all voters and their families in fostering the values and principles of this nation.
Due to the loss of high quality and high paying jobs to overseas corporations (and for many other reasons), Robert became politically active beginning in 2000. Eventually, after volunteering on various campaigns, he was appointed as the Los Angeles County Coordinator for Congressman Ron Paul’s 2008 presidential campaign. Following the presidential campaign he continued to work in the community to support conservative issues and candidates.
“I believe now is the time for all Americans to stand up and take their local governments to task in returning the will of the people back to those they serve. The protection of individual rights over government dictates has been stepped upon and forgotten. It is time for our elected officials to do the right thing for “We the People” regardless of party affiliation.”
Robert considers himself to be a life long student, with particular interest in science, politics and economics. He presently holds a certificate in Addictions Counseling. Robert looks forward to continuing his education in political science and endeavors to obtain his law degree in the near future to help those whose rights are being trampled on.
As an ardent supporter of the US Constitution and our Bill of Rights, Robert fully supports the 2nd Amendment rights of law abiding citizens, to protect themselves and their families. He is a champion of true Republican principles, a voracious reader of fiction and nonfiction, and your everyday family man.
He traces his American ancestry to before the Constitution was enacted in the 13 colonies and to his family arriving to California in 1859. His family roots are firmly planted in service to our nation, state and county. Many of his family helped to build our nation’s infrastructure in its delicate and historic infancy.
