King’s professor Bret Schundler runs for political office

NEW YORK, August 8, 2008—Professor Bret Schundler, who teaches rhetoric and directs The Policy Center at The King’s College, is running again for the office that made him one of the GOP’s most promising stars—mayor of Jersey City, New Jersey.

An accomplished businessman and politician, Schundler became the first and only Republican mayor in Jersey City in about 100 years. The city is predominately Democratic, with only six percent of registered voters claiming to be Republicans. Schundler was mayor for nine years, from 1992 to 2001, and was the city’s longest-serving mayor in more than half a century.
