Will Brooke (businessman)
- ... that businessman and then political candidate Will Brooke described the Affordable Care Act as a "planned economy disaster"?
- Reviewed: Prince Rupert Loewenstein
Moved to mainspace by Jayehubb (talk), ThaddeusB (talk). Nominated by ThaddeusB (talk) at 00:41, 8 June 2014 (UTC).
Long enough, new enough, no copyvios found, QPQ done. I'm not crazy about the hook; I read a lot of Obamacare bashing in the press, and I'm not sure if people would think "so what" and move along. Is there a another hook you can come up with?--Launchballer 09:44, 25 June 2014 (UTC)
- I'm open to suggestions but I don't think you'll get something super interesting out of this article. The suggested hook is a pretty pithy comment, IMO, and would generate at least some interest. My only other suggestion would be:
- ALT1 ... that businessman Will Brooke finished 5th out of 7 candidates a recent Alabama primary race despite being endorsed by former governor Bob Riley?
- which might have more appeal in Alabama, but less national appeal. --ThaddeusB (talk) 21:12, 25 June 2014 (UTC)
- Hmm. Let me sleep on it.--Launchballer 21:21, 25 June 2014 (UTC)
