On Apr 30, 2022

SOUTHEASTERN, ALABAMA. AFTER SERVING IN THE ARMY FOR MORE THAN 25 YEARS ARTHUR KENNEDY EARNED A DEGREE IN EDUCATION FROMOY T UNIVERSITY. JUST LAST YEAR. HE’S NEVER HELD A PUBLIC OFFICE DAN HAS DONE MOST OF HIS CAMPAIGNING ON YOUTUBE. SO HERE WAS SOME THOUGHTS ABT WHAT I SEE IN EVERY REPUBLICAN PARTY SEADTE IN FRONT OF AN AMERICAN FLAG AND TALNGKI DIRECTLYO T THE CAMERA IS HOW KENNEDY TRIES TO CONNECT WITH ALABAMA VOTERS. THE CHANNEL HAS ONLY SEVEN SUBSCRIBERS BUT SPEAKING TO ME VIA ZOOM FROM PINKARD HE GAVE A SIMPLE EXPLANATION FOR WHY HE’S RUNNING FOR GOVERNOR. MY GOAL IS TO CHANGE FROM THE LAWS OF ALABAMA. AND AS I SERVED THE ARMY, I WOULD LIKE TO SERVE ALABAMA KENNEDY WORKS IN THE DOTHAN SCHOOL SYSTEM AS A SUBSTITUTE TEACHER AND IN CUSTOALDI SERVICES TO IMPROVE EDUCATION. HE PROPOSES YEAR-RODUN SCHOOL. WE SHOULD HAVE ALL TEAM TO PROMOTE EDUCATE. PROME HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS THAT WANT TO GO TO CLEGE WE MIGHT SOMETIMES HAVE TO GIVE THEM A FULL RIDE SCHOLARSHIP. THA’S ‘GOOD. IF AND PROMOTE DOWN PROMOTE THAT AWAY TO GET THEM TO BE EDUCATED OR GET DOWN TO BE A TEACHER IN ALABAMA. TRY TOET G THEM TO STAY WE HAVE TO HAVE MORE INCENTIVE FOR TEACHERS WHERE THEY CAN WANT TO STAY IN ALABAMA PRISON REFORM. HE SAYS ISNE O OF HIS QUOTE HARD ISSUES. HE’S AGAINST GOVERRNO IVY’S PROPALOS TO BUILD NEW PRISON. HE SAYS NON-VIOLENT OFFENRSDE SHOULD BE PAROLED SOONER TO EASE OVERCROWDING NOW. HE HURT ME THAT IF THEY TRY TO FELLOW WITH ONE COVID FUND TRY TO BUILD A PRISON WHICH WAS WRON G.I BELIEVE THAT WE STOPPED THE PRISON BUILDING. LOOK AT WHAT WE HAVE. WE MIGHT HAVE TO DO SOME REFORM OR REMODELING. FIX THAT AND START BRINNGGI PRISONER OF OF CITIZENS BKAC INTO THE SOCTYIE BECAUSE THEY NEED THE OPPORTUNITY AT A TIME WHEN GUN VIOLENCE HAS INCREASED IN SOME ALABAMA METRO AREAS KENNEDY BELIEVES. WE SHOULD HEAV MORE NOT FEWER LIMITS ON WHO CAN OWN AND CRYAR A GUNND A A BETTER SYSTEM FOR TRACKING THEM. IT SHOULDN’TE BEVERYBODY SHOULD BE HELLO. I’M SURE IT SHOULDN’T BE ABLE TO SELL GOD WE SEE WE NEED TO TAKE SOMEONE TO GUNS OFF THE MARKET. AND JUST PUT IN A AGE GROUPS AND YOU CAN REGISTER THEY HAVE A WEAPON. I LOOK AT 25 WE A SENSIBLEGE A KENNEDY OPPOSES A LOTTERY AND STEAD. HE PROPOSES LAWMAKERS INCREASE ETH MINIMUM WAGE SUSPEND THE GAS TAXND A ELIMINATE THE GRORYCE TAX. I BELIEVE THAT IT SHOULD BE SUSPENDED FROM THE TEIM MAN UNTIL WE GET PAST THIS PANDEMIC AND THE GAS PRICES GO DOWN. NOW FOR THE SALE TYPE OF ROASTERS I DISAGREE ON IT. I THINK IT SHOULD BE TAX-FREE VOTERS CAN CAST TIRHE BALCEAN IN THE DEMOCRATIC PRI
