On my little Ohio town forum I was just told that Blackwell wants to starve all the poor children!
I'm going to find that post and put it here. How do you answer an idiot that posts such a thing???
Good article pretty much states all for reference:
Born in the projects of Cincinnati to a meat-packer who preached the work ethic and a nurse who read to him from the Bible every evening, Blackwell has rejected the victimology of many black activists and opted for a different path, championing school choice, opposing abortion, and staunchly advocating low taxes as a road to prosperity.
CUT
One of Blackwell’s principles, handed down from his father, is that opportunity is something you have to grab for yourself, because it won’t be handed to you by government or anyone else.--Ronald Reagan’s Unlikely Heir Steven Malanga Ohio’s Republican gubernatorial front-runner Ken Blackwell is “Jesse Jackson’s worst nightmare.”
