Senator Stacey Campfield (TN 7th District) kept
our state visible by promoting the Don't Say Gay bill and by asking the state
to take food out of the mouth of children who don't perform well in school.
These are ridiculous acts. They resulted in appropriate RIDICULE of him and garnered
unfavorable attention for Tennessee.
There
are better people running for his seat. One is a Democrat with ideas. Perhaps
you know her. Cheri Siler. She reads. She learns from the successes of others and asks, "Why not here?"
It's time to get recognized for doing good. It's time for Cheir Siler. That's my opinion.
What could he have spent his time on? I'll tell you. Instead
of working to gain attention for himself, he could have:
Done what Maine legislators did. They passed a law allowing
importation of prescription drugs from Canada. That law saved the City of
Portland $200,000 and it saved Maine businesses MILLIONS. Portland has a
population of 66,000. Knoxville’s is over 160,000. You do the math. One small Maine company, Hardwood Products,
a maker of ice cream sticks and skewers fro corn dogs, saved $400,000. Imagine
the impact on Knox County businesses.
He could have done what Oregon is doing, and making college
education affordable by allowing students to pay nothing while in school;
instead, after graduation, four-year students pay 3 percent of their income for
the next two decades or so to fund the education of future students—without a
role for the big banks.
He could have worked to eliminate homelessness like UTAH,
which has eliminated 74% of homeless people with the goal of elimination it all
by 2015, NEXT YEAR!
