(John Williams) Allow me to retort to John William's rude retorts (if that really is his name). He assumes that I am not a successful politician because I have not won an election. In his ignorance and lack of understanding of how politics work, is the fact that I refuse to sell out. It would defeat the purpose of why I run for office. I don't just talk, I do the walk. I have succeeded in setting the agenda for a number of issues using some of the strategies in "Earth". In the last election there were 15 candidates for 4 positions on the council. The incumbents and those who make promises to gain the support of special interests always win. The 4 behind who also had special interests but not the local machine, spent at least $50,000. I came in a few hundred votes behind them and ahead of all the remaining candidates. Not bad, when my only endorsement was the Green party... I'm Jonathan Mann and I approve this message!~) _______________________________________________ http://box535.bluehost.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l_mccmedia.com
