Antonio (Tony) Campbell (born c. 1966) is an American educator and politician. He is the Republican Party candidate in the 2018 Maryland election for the United States Senate. If elected, he would be the first African-American Senator from Maryland.
Campbell teaches political science at Towson University, following a career as a chaplain in the US Army.
Background
Campbell studied at the University of Pittsburgh, graduating in 2003 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Political Science. He then received a Master of Science degree in Social Science at Towson University in 2007. At Liberty University, he earned Master of Divinity and Doctor of Ministry degrees. His doctoral dissertation in 2016, Every Life Matters to God: A New Paradigm of Care for Suicide Prevention, addressed methodologies and best practices in care to reduce the high suicide rate among National Guard soldiers returning from overseas deployments in combat zones.
After obtaining his Master's degree in 2007, Campbell became a Chaplain in the U.S. Army. Following his Army career, he served in the administration of President George W. Bush. Campbell then began teaching political science at Towson University. As a professor of political science, he appeared on television as a governmental affairs commentator. On January 23, 2017, for example, he gave an analysis of President Trump's Inaugural Address to WMAR-TV, the ABC affiliate in Baltimore.
A resident of Baltimore County, Maryland, he has been active on the Executive Committee of the Maryland Republican Party, also serving on Baltimore County's Charter Review Commission. Campbell previously ran for Baltimore County Executive in 2014, losing narrowly in the Republican primary. He currently serves on the Baltimore County School Board Nomination Commission.
2018 US Senate campaign
In the Republican primary held on June 26, 2018, Campbell won with 29.2% of the vote in a crowded field of 11 candidates, carrying 13 of Maryland's 23 counties and Baltimore City.
Campbell's campaign in the general election stresses national security and smaller government, saying his priority as Senator would be "securing America' infrastructure against foreign actors". On education, Campbell has called for an end to such programs as Common Core, advocating a "return of authority" over schools from the Federal government to the state level. He has also campaigned for "reasonable tuition rates to allow for every student to achieve their goal of a four year college degree". In an interview with the Hagerstown Herald-Mail newspaper, Campbell said he advocates a balanced budget amendment to the Constitution to curb Federal government deficit spending, although he generally supports the Trump administration's positions on the economy and foreign policy.
In an October 7, 2018, televised debate described by the Washington Post as "feisty", Campbell criticized his Democratic Party opponent, Ben Cardin, who is seeking a third term as Senator, saying the incumbent should have done more about Baltimore’s high crime rate and poorly performing schools. Campbell also said that Cardin was part of the partisanship in the Senate and criticized his opponent for voting against the confirmation of US Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh.
On October 18, he made a joint appearance with Democratic gubernatorial candidate Ben Jealous on OZY's televised Take on America show hosted by Carlos Watson to discuss the topic, "Black Men in Baltimore”. The program focused on solutions to the challenges facing many inner-city African-American residents, in particular poverty, crime, and drugs.
Author
Campbell has authored two non-fiction books. He wrote America Today: Political Theory and Practical Politics in 2014, relating the thoughts of political theorists as far back as Plato to contemporary American politics.
His second book, A More Perfect Union: Connecting the Dots Between Today's Politics and the History of Political Thought, was written in 2017. With its title drawn from the Preamble to the United States Constitution, A More Perfect Union discusses the Constitution's application to political discourse and policy making in the modern era.
