Bill stops by The Kennel to give listeners—especially potential voters—an idea of how he will follow through on the promises outlined in the picture above. We talk about issues of political corruption, the threats that public schools face in TN, problems with Medicare funding in TN, and much more.
Thank you so much to Bill for running on a platform that actually represents his constituents, and for stopping by to chat! And as always, thanks to you for tuning in! Go give Bill a follow on his campaign’s Facebook page, and give him your vote this November if you can! He’s earned it.
Attention MTSU Students:
I’d like to take this opportunity to highlight an interesting fact that I hadn’t learned until after the interview: Bill’s opponent in this race is Charlie Baum, another MTSU professor who is the Republican incumbent that’s swimming in filthy corporate PAC money. I imagine with two MTSU faculty members running in this race, both candidates may be wanting to maintain the peace on campus and not risk getting in any trouble with administration.
This approach deprives the MTSU student body of education on an important issue.
Bill’s campaign is a wonderful opportunity to get the student body informed and activated on the issue of legalized corruption, which has become a rampant problem in the U.S. ever since the Supreme Court’s 2010 ruling on Citizen’s United v. The Federal Election Commission. This ruling granted corporations the ability to spend unlimited amounts of money on political campaign, essentially declaring that money is free speech. With these restrictions gone for over a decade, corporations have had the ability to buy out our public officials when they campaign. These wealthy interests donate massive amounts of money to different candidates in the hopes that they’ll pay back the favor legislatively if they make it to office.
This is legalized corruption, and Charlie Baum holds a career in partaking in this morally disgraceful practice. Nothing would make me happier than to not only see this shill lose in a landslide, but to also see my new friends at MTSU help make that a reality. If able, vote for Bill Levine next month, not the corrupt corporate ghoul that he’s running against.
I’d also like to remind any visitors to this page that The Kennel operates independently of Middle Tennessee State University.
