West & East Williamson Democrats host Lorenzo Sadun tomorrow
This Saturday the West Williamson County Democrats and the East Williamson County Democratic Club are co-hosting a guest speaker in the second of our public forum series, “Meet the Candidates.”
What: The October “MEET THE CANDIDATES” public forum
Where: Moody’s Restaurant, 309 N. Highway 183, in nearby Leander.
Date: Saturday, October 10, 2009
Time: 2:00 - 4:00 p.m.
Our featured speaker will be Dr. Lorenzo Sadun who is running for the Texas’ State Board of Education, District 10. Dr. Sadun will discuss his views on education, his assessment of the SBOE, why he wants an opportunity to change the direction of SBOE, and why it is so critical we remove our current representative.
For those of us who have not yet begun to examine the candidates for SBOE, the current representative for District 10 (which includes Williamson County, Travis County north of the Colorado River, and 14 additional counties) is Cynthia Dunbar who has asserted that she believes public education is unconstitutional and who in her book, “One Nation Under God,” calls public education “tyrannical” and “a subtle instrument of perversion.”
We need a person of reason with a solid background in education to represent us. It is critical that our SBOE representive believes in the public education system and is committed to improving it.
In August you heard Dr. Judy Jennings, the other Democratic candidate for this office. Now come hear Dr. Sadun. Let’s make sure that we each are prepared to make the best decision we can make when we have to decide at the voting booth in the March primary which of these two great candidates we want to represent us on the Democratic Party ticket in the November election!

I hope we will see you all there!
