When Doc went to any horse event, he was guaranteed to be stopped by folks wanting to talk to him, calling out "Hey Doc!" and thanking him for caring for their beloved horse or, of course, asking for advice.

King's admires often ask him: " Hey Doc!" " when are you going to run for the Congress or the House of the Representatives?" His answer was almost always the same: " It's not my calling." But when the questions persisted, he literally told them that: " I am not interested in power for power's sake, but I'm interested in power that is moral, that is right and that is good." Case closed!
