Robert Ransdell, a known white supremacist, has caused controversy with his campaign slogan “With Jews, We Lose.” On a post discussing his platform on a white supremacist site, Ransdell laments outsourcing, claiming that American corporations have “capitalized on the prosperity America has offered them and then paid the country back by selling its White citizens out by sending jobs overseas…”

If elected, he declares, his “first move” would be to “halt the $5 billion dollars that are siphoned off by the criminal state of Israel every year,” noting that America has “made the Muslims our enemies through our support of Israel.”

With the money saved by cutting off support to Israel, as well as “the non-White world,” he writes, “we can set about repairing and improving America’s aging infrastructure…”

A statement from the University of Kentucky responded to the controversy by saying in part:

Mr. Ransdell was invited because he has registered and has been qualified as a write-in candidate for the U.S. Senate with the Kentucky Secretary of State Office…The University of Kentucky was not aware of the content of his remarks prior to him speaking and does not condone or endorse any political platform or agenda.

The irony of cutting off someone’s microphone during a free speech event was not lost on Frank LoMonte, executive director of the Student Press Law Center, who said, “it can be difficult to cut off a speaker, particularly at an event celebrating the First Amendment.” The fact that there was a “captive audience of young people” played a role in that decision, he said.
