`Colonel' not OK for Ark. ballot, but `Porky' is

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. – A retired Army colonel running for a U.S. Senate seat from Arkansas is criticizing a state law that prevents him from using his military title as a nickname on the ballot this spring. In Arkansas, that's a privilege reserved for monikers such as Porky, Bubba and Two.

Conrad Reynolds, one of eight Republicans running for the Senate, hoped to point out his military credentials by filing candidacy papers as "Conrad `Colonel' Reynolds," but election officials wouldn't allow it.

Under state law, already-elected officials can use their titles on the ballot. People seeking office can use a nickname — and many do when no one can recollect their given names. But the law prohibits professional or honorary titles from being used as nicknames.

Reynolds said the law is unfair to him and to voters. He said he believes the law should allow military ranks to be included as part of a candidate's title or a nickname. Reynolds said he would consider challenging the state's decision.

"People say, `Hey, Colonel.' They call me that all the time," Reynolds said. "It's one of those rare instances where it's both" a title and a nickname.

For Harold Kimbrell, a Democrat seeking a House seat in western Arkansas, the choice was simple. He'd go by the name he says he's gone by since the fifth grade: Porky.

"I was short, fat and had little ears, and they started calling me Porky Pig," Kimbrell said. "The name just stuck, and I started to agree with them."

That is exactly why in Arkansas you never hear Major Garrett or Larry King reporting that Queen Latifah nor Major Applewhite could never be Governor of Arkansas. But we did have a Governor named Footsie.
