VIRGINIA BEACH, Va., Sept. 21, 2011 /Standard Newswire/ -- E. W. Jackson, candidate for U.S. Senate in Virginia has avoided attacking front runner George Allen. "My campaign is about reversing the agenda that is destroying our country," says Jackson. "The Obama agenda is my opponent."
However, Jackson has expressed anger over a scheduled debate which excludes all U.S. Senate candidates other than George Allen and Tim Kaine. Jackson blasted the process arguing, "This is establishment arrogance at its height. We are nine months from the primary election. The media ought to be assuring fairness to all instead of trying to narrow the field. People have had it with establishment efforts to manipulate and dictate and limit voters' choices. This is corruption and arrogance."
For the first time in his campaign Jackson also chided Allen. "I am disappointed in George Allen as a fellow Republican. He has said repeatedly that he has learned his lesson. He claims that he now wants to serve the people not the establishment. He claims to have had a change of heart. If any of that were true, he would have told AP to go fly a kite. He should have refused to be part of any debate that suggests the primary is already over, because it isn't. Instead he is going along with the establishment again. If he can't stand up to them here, he certainly won't stand up to them in Washington."
Jackson is seeking the Republican nomination to U.S. Senate, but rarely mentions his opponents, preferring instead to focus on the policies of the Obama administration. He says, "George Allen (R) and Tim Kaine (D) represent the past and the policies that got us into this mess. We need new leadership to get us out of it, not career politicians with attitudes of entitlement."
A Marine Corps Veteran of the Viet Nam Era, Jackson graduated from U. of Mass. Summa Cum Laude and from Harvard Law School. He practiced and taught business law, and ran his own small business for 10 years. Now a minister, he is running for the U.S. Senate to reverse Obama's policies and restore American prosperity.
