With the primaries quickly approaching and regardless of outcome, The Brown Line column at TheAverageChicagoan.com fully endorses Andy Martin as the republican candidate for Senator Henry Burris’ U.S. Senate seat representing Illinois. We, including column founder Melvin T., believe in order to achieve the change our great city and state needs—a politician fighting for causes that can produce the most positive effects and benefits all is required. We believe this man is Andy Martin.
Bio
Not from Illinois, Martin was born in Connecticut and earned undergraduate and graduate degrees from the University of Illinois. Martin has been a public-interest lawyer for over 40 years as well as a manager, teacher, public speaker, and politician. He has a controversial history as lawyer and politician. He has earned contempt due to his alleged nature to file frivolous lawsuits and verbal attacks on “malicious judges” who opposed him. In a motion he filed in a 1983 bankruptcy case, Martin is quoted as calling the presiding judge “a crooked, slimy Jew who has a history of lying and thieving common to members of his race.” Later that year he also filed another motion that stated, “I am able to understand how the Holocaust took place, and with every passing day feel less and less sorry that it did.” Martin claims he was misquoted and that most of those comments were falsified in order to ruin his reputation him. His supposed anti-Semitism also derailed a run for the Florida state Senate in the 90s. Martin has also been a strong critic against hometown favorite U.S. President Barack Obama, calling his birthplace and biological father into question.
The Illinois Republican Party Chairman Patrick Brady recently announced “The Illinois Republican Party disavows the statements made by Mr. Andrew Martin in his statewide radio advertisements… Mr. Martin will no longer be recognized as a legitimate Republican candidate by the Illinois Republican Party.”
