FROM THE 1986 GOVERNOR CAMPAIGN OF BILL SCHULZ OF ARIZONA
Bill Schulz
Born   William R. Schulz
April 4, 1931 (age 86)
Des Moines, Iowa, U.S.
Nationality    American
Alma mater  Harvard University
Occupation   Businessman, politician
Spouse(s)      Lelia Schulz
William R. Schulz
(born April 4, 1931) is an American politician who was an Independent candidate for Governor of Arizona in the 1986 gubernatorial election, and was the Democratic nominee against Barry Goldwater in the 1980 U.S. Senate election.
Early life, career and education
Bill Schulz was born in Des Moines, Iowa on April 4, 1931. He graduated from the Kentucky Military Institute in 1949, and the United States Military Academy at West Point in 1954. He resigned his commission in order to focus on a career in business, and attended Harvard University's business school, graduating in 1959.
Following his graduation, Schulz founded his own business, known as Homesmith, which offered home repair services in the Palo Alto, California area.  Schulz then founded W. R. Schulz and Associates, which owned and managed 88 garden apartment properties in the Phoenix metropolitan area. Schulz is credited with getting the Apartment Renter's Tax Relief Bill passed through the state legislature, which led to his involvement in politics.
Political career
Schulz's first foray into seeking political office began with the 1978 gubernatorial election, where he ran as a Democratic candidate, challenging incumbent Governor Wesley Bolin. He announced his campaign after traveling around the state, and compiled the research into a "Goals for Arizona" campaign. Following the death of Bolin in March 1978, Schulz withdrew from the election and endorsed Bruce Babbitt, who ascended to the governorship. Babbitt was Attorney General of Arizona at the time of Bolin's death.
Following his 1978 gubernatorial election withdrawal, Schulz announced his intention to run for the U.S. Senate in the 1980 election, and challenge incumbent U.S. Senator Barry Goldwater.  His campaign slogan was "Energy for the Eighties," and Schulz won the Democratic nomination, defeating two other candidates. In the general election, Schulz lost by a very narrow margin, with Goldwater receiving 49.5% to Schulz's 48.4%.  Following his loss, Schulz announced his intention in 1984 to run for the governorship once again in the 1986 election, but initially withdrew from the race in 1985 due to the health of his daughter.  Schulz then decided to re-enter the race, but was required to do so as an Independent candidate, as he was not able to seek the Democratic nomination. In September 1986, Schulz collected enough signatures to be placed on the November ballot as an independent.  During the election, Schulz was criticized for constantly changing his position on the issues.  Despite Schulz leading in many polls leading up to the election, Republican nominee Evan Mecham was elected as Governor, due to the race being split into a three-way contest, and causing the Democratic nominee Carolyn Warner to lose by a narrow margin to Mecham.  Mecham would be impeached from office only two years later, but the 1986 gubernatorial race ended Schulz's political career and he returned to the private sector.

THANKS FOR LOOKING AND HAPPY BROWSING!!
MAY GOD BLESS YOU ALL...
He
Leadeth
Me
In pastures green?
Not always; sometimes He
who
knoweth
best, in kindness
leadeth
me
In many ways where heavy shadows be.
Out of the sunshine warm and soft and bright
..
Out of the sunshine into the darkest night,
I oft would faint with sorrow and affright,
Only for this...I know He holds my hand;
so whether in the green or desert land
I trust although I may not understand.
And by still waters?
No, not always so;
Ofttimes
the heavy tempests round me blow,
And o'er my soul the waters and billows go.
But when the storms beat loudest and I cry
aloud for help, the Master
standeth
by
And whispers to my soul, "Lo, it is I."
Above the tempest wild I hear Him say,
Beyond this darkness lies a perfect day.
In every path of
thine
I lead the way.
So whether on the hilltops high and fair
I dwell, or in the sunless valleys where
The shadows
lie
...what matters? He is there.
So where He leads me, I can safely go,
And in the blest hereafter I shall know
Why in His wisdom, He hath led me so.
