I was kick out of the amazon affiliate program for my use of the stock affiliate disclosure page from WA. Why would this happen?
Here is the email sent to me

Do you have anything along the lines of "making a purchase using my links supports this site", etc.? Remove it if you do...that's the one that got me.
I am not 100% sure to be honest, but if you get to know, please let me know as well! for what I checked, I think you shouldn't have mentioned in detail about the affiliate disclosure with Amazon but again, I'm not 100% sure, I don't know if that's allowed or not...

Thanks for the feedback. @marionblack I think that must be the problem line. I added the page template from WA when I created my site while going through training. It says to add the page and insert your website name. That template needs to be changed or folks run the risk of getting booted from Amazon.

Perhaps you could contact Kyle and let him know.
