Michigan Trucker Anthony Hudson Seeks GOP Presidential Nomination
By Bob Small
Anthony Hudson owns a Michigan trucking company and wants to be the GOP nominee for president in 20204
On issues of social policy, Hudson supports everyone’s freedom, including the right to choose who to love. “If you find love, you find love,” Hudson says. “You deserve that. We all deserve that.” He also feels that transgender issues should be addressed at home, not in our schools.
He has a fiancee and two sons from a previous marriage.
On his campaign site, under the heading “Veterans and Homeless”, he states: “There are over 500 military bases in this country that are closed! We would like to reopen those bases and use the housing facilities for our homeless vets and other homeless Americans.”
Another innovative proposal appears under the heading “Immigration”. “Immigrants would take out a citizens’ bond and would be responsible for paying $150 a month to the federal government in exchange for working visas and the right to be here and get established, until they have completed the immigration process. “ Again, see the site for the full proposal.
He also propose innovative solutions for the following topics:
- Parents and rights
- Small business support
- Securing our schools
So why haven’t we heard of this candidate?
How does a candidate enter the GOP debate? To make the stage, candidates must garner at least 6 percent in two approved national polls, or 6 percent in one poll from two separate early-voting states: Iowa, New Hampshire, Nevada and South Carolina.
Participants also need to amass at least 80,000 unique donors, with at least 200 unique donors per state or territory, in at least 20 states.
Maybe we need some other format, like podcasts, radio, or TV, that will find a way to include some of these lesser-known candidates, so that a wider audience can hear them.
This Michigander, for instance, deserves to be heard in a wider context than the one he has now.
As for a candidate not having held prior political office, neither did Dwight Eisenhower, Ulysses S. Grant, Herbert Hoover, William Howard Taft, and one Donald Trump.
