Candidate offers hope to Tennesseans
Nashville, TN (August 10, 2010) --- Charles Williamson has been inundated with requests for comments on recent news items regarding perceived ethical challenges in the office of his opponent, House Democratic Caucus Chairman, Mike Turner. The conservative Williamson is challenging Turner for the District 51 House seat.
“I’m just not interested in dwelling on those things,” the professional geologist and bison rancher says. “Certainly, I want elected officials to conduct themselves with integrity, but my focus right now is on the people and the issues that really affect my neighbors in the years ahead.”
While touring the new Davidson County Republican Party headquarters, Williamson noted that this election year marks a critical turning point in the future of the state and country.
“I hear the same thing from people over and over. Government has been headed in the wrong direction and we need to turn it around,” Williamson says. “Fortunately, Tennesseans have several excellent choices this year to elect real citizens and experienced business people to lead us toward a stronger Tennessee. It’s time to oust the same old professional politicians.”
Williamson, who raises buffalo on his ranch in Davidson County, has hope for Tennessee’s future and likens the spirit of Tennesseans to the legendary animal.
“Buffalo have been around for millions of years,” he says. “They are survivors who have helped shape our landscape and culture. People respond to that kind of spirit because people, too, are resilient and determined. I see it every day as I meet the good folks in my district.” The candidate firmly believes in a strong future for Tennessee, despite the stormy economy.
“Like the buffalo, we will turn our faces boldly into the wind,” Williamson says. “We will weather the storm and we will see brighter days. And that’s no bull!”
