<title>Michael Beitler, US Senate Campaign</title>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>Posting by admin, Sunday, December 06, 2009, 23:07:</em></p><p><p>DR. MIKE BEITLER ANNOUNCES FOR U.S. SENATE</p>
<p>GREENSBORO (Sept. 8, 2009) --Dr. Michael Beitler (pronounced Bite-ler) will announce his candidacy for the Libertarian Party's nomination for the U.S. Senate September 17 at a press conference in the Piedmont-Triad International Airport Marriott Hotel at 7:30 p.m.</p>
<p>Dr. Michael Munger, 2008 Libertarian gubernatorial candidate and Barbara Howe, North Carolina Libertarian Party chair will also speak at the press conference.</p>
<p>As a U.S. Senator, Beitler promises to dramatically reduce the size of the Federal government. &quot;The big-spending, big-government advocates, both Democrats and Republicans, must be stopped. We are beyond the point of simply reducing government program budgets; now we must abolish entire government programs and agencies,&quot; he said.</p>
<p>Beitler is a business practice professor in The Bryan School of Business and Economics at the University of North Carolina-Greensboro. &quot;I tell my young students, I am ashamed of what the baby-boom generation is doing to the futures of young Americans. An inheritance of tens of trillions of dollars in debt is a disgraceful legacy,&quot; he said.</p>
<p>He is the host of Free Markets With Dr. Mike Beitler, an internet-radio show that airs on the VoiceAmerica Business Network. Beitler is the author of three business books used in MBA programs and Rational Individualism: A Moral Argument for Limited Government &amp; Capitalism, a book about his libertarian political philosophy.</p>
<p>Beitler believes his experience as a chief financial officer in banking and his current work as business consultant will allow him to quickly see which government programs and agencies must be eliminated. &quot;I will have a contract with the citizens of North Carolina. If I cannot accomplish the goal of abolishing government programs and agencies, the citizens of North Carolina can fire me mid-term,&quot; Beitler promised.</p>
<p>Beitler has three adult children. He and his wife, Danielle, live in northwest Guilford County.<br />
