What People Are Saying…“Bradley Byrne has led our community college system out of the age of scandal and put it on the path of reform. He deserves the thanks of every taxpayer for working hard to clean up what was a corrupt and wasteful system. He has gotten results.” “Bradley Byrne’s tenure as chancellor of Alabama’s two-year college system will be remembered for purging corruption from campuses and re-establishing trust with state taxpayers and students. “…During his two-year tenure, Byrne has helped restore credibility to the system, most notably by tackling thorny personnel issues such as legislators on two-year college payrolls. He has worked ably with the school board, stood his ground with lawmakers and turned to the courts in his efforts to put the system on better footing…” “’I have watched him lead the two-year system back to a position of prominence and sense of pride, and it will be sad to see that gone. But it could be beneficial to see it in a different system in the state,’ said McKinney, who represents Mobile and Baldwin counties on the board.” “We appreciate the job Byrne did in stepping into a scandal-plagued system and getting it turned in the right direction.” “Ethics reform that we need: On this, Byrne has it right.” “He showed a lot of management skill as well as a lot of intestinal fortitude standing up to the AEA, both in the Legislature and in managing the junior college situation. He acted decisively and effectively…From the first time I met Bradley, he impressed me not only as a very intelligent fellow, but as a guy with a lot of integrity. I was delighted when he decided to go into politics. Intelligence and integrity are rare commodities. He has proven that my assessment of him was 100 percent correct. ON BRADLEY’S CHARACTER “If you make me the governor of the state of Alabama, when it comes to ethics reform and when it comes to improving our education system, when it comes to developing our state economically, I will not back down,” Byrne said. “In addition to his proven character, courage and intellect…Bradley brings a wealth of knowledge and understanding to the table that no other candidate can match.” “In my mind there are three characteristics which are absolutely necessary in a governor: Integrity—so that the people’s interest remains foremost; “Byrne comes across as the guy you immediately trust, because he so clearly knows what he is talking about – but also as a guy you like because he is so palpably sincere.” As an Alabama REALTOR® and small business owner, I proudly and wholeheartedly support Bradley Bryne for Governor. I attended and addressed the Alabama State Board of Education concerning the corruption of Double Dipping. If all Alabama citizens could have heard the self-serving statements of the elected officials w…ho wanted to protect their lucrative pay offs with the Double Dipping, they would all be applauding the courageous efforts of Bradley Bryne, Randy McKinney and the School Board members who stood up for ethical and honest principles. Thank You, Bradley. You have my VOTE! “Alabama needs strong leadership to look forward to…the man for that job is Bradley Byrne.”
“Bradley Byrne may be a lawyer by vocation, but his calling is public servant. Through two terms each on the Board of Education and in the state Senate, then during the two years he served as chancellor of the two-year college system, Bradley proved himself an excellent steward of taxpayers’ dollars and a staunch supporter of governmental integrity. He’s capable of making tough decisions and will lead our state in a manner that fosters economic growth.” |
