With no political experience, Regan ran in 2014 and came in second place. Many were shocked by this as Regan ran on a small name with no political or inside connections. Robert Regan is running his campaign on constitutional conservative values. Regan believes in the sanctity of life, protecting constitutional rights (such as the first and second amendment), advocating for small businesses, and making sure West Michigan is heard.

The common thread through them all is wisdom, courage, overcoming adversity, standing up for what is right, and self-sacrifice for the betterment of others.
My first job out of college was at the Fifth Third Bank in Cincinnati, OH. I was there four years before leaving to become a financial planner at Morgan Stanley Dean Witter in Lansing, MI.

2014
Regan's website highlighted the following campaign themes:[7]
- Excerpt: "I believe that the best form of welfare is a well paying job and to that end, I am making economic development and job creation the core issue of my campaign."
- Excerpt: "Community development in the form of liberty and freedom will also be a key issue, from 2nd amendment rights, to religious liberty and freedom as well as working to lower taxes, we must work together to protect the freedoms our founders gave us."
- Excerpt: "In order to help enhance and encourage accountability for myself and others in Lansing, I pledge for transparency in government. Public awareness and transparency will help hold the feet to the fire of elected officials"
- Excerpt: "I am a father of four, a son and three daughters, and as such hold traditional family and pro-life values dear to my heart."
