Dr. Robin Armstrong elected Vice Chairman of Texas Republican Party

Born in Texas City and raised next door in La Marque, Texas, the thirty seven year old physician has a Bachelor’s degree in Microbiology and a Medical degree from the University of Texas Medical Branch in Galveston. After completing his residency in Internal Medicine, Dr. Armstrong now serves on the staff at Mainland Medical Center in Texas City where he was born, just down the street from his boyhood home.

Dr. Armstrong was a wide receiver on the La Marque Cougars high school football team that played in the 5A state championship in 1987; he also ran the 800 meters and the two-mile relay in track and field.

Raised in a political household, Dr. Armstrong’s father Robert was a long time La Marque ISD School Board Trustee. Dr. Armstrong is a born again Christian who accepted Jesus as his personal Lord and Savior while a sophomore at Texas A & M. Dr. Armstrong also became a Republican that year because his strong pro-life beliefs would not allow him to abide the Democratic party’s immoral position on abortion.

Dr. Armstrong is involved in politics because he loves this country that has given him opportunity after opportunity. He sees our nation drifting away from the values that made her great. It is his desire to do everything within his power to promote and defend our conservative principles all throughout our land.

Dr. Armstrong agrees with Chairman Benkiser that the Republican Party of Texas must expand our conservative base to maintain our Party’s success in the future. It is not enough to preach to the choir; we must continue to grow by reaching out to people of faith, professional groups, and minorities who have been abandoned by liberalism; he is committed to working with Chairman Benkiser to win the cultural war and secure our Republican majority far into the future.

Dr. Armstrong has been married to his wife Martha for eight years; Martha is also a medical doctor and the Armstrong’s have two sons: Daniel and Gabriel.

The Armstrong’s are active in the Abundant Life Christian Center in La Marque, where Dr. Armstrong is a Men’s Bible Study Group Leader. Dr. Armstrong is also a member of the Galveston Pachyderm Club, the Texas Eagle Forum, and an associate member of the following Republican Women’s Clubs: Clear Creek, Sandpiper, Galveston, and Midland County.
