Internet 'golden voice' sensation Ted Williams says he's running for president as independent
— Ted Williams, the once-homeless Ohio man whose smooth radio voice made him an Internet sensation, says he plans to run for president as an independent.
The 57-year-old Williams was propelled into the spotlight in 2011 after he appeared in a video by The Columbus Dispatch panhandling on a highway ramp with a sign advertising his radio voice. The video's millions of views led to national television appearances and earned Williams numerous voice-over jobs.
Williams announced his plan Tuesday on Scott Spears' "Now" radio program on WWGH-FM in Marion.
Williams says he hasn't yet established a campaign staff, and he wouldn't elaborate on fundraising efforts. He plans to focus on fair housing, veterans issues, jobs and improving schools.
Williams says he's recently been appearing at corporate events and public speaking engagements.
