The Observer reports on Johnson's campaign:
The Don Johnson mayoral campaign continues to churn out material. The
latest salvo promises that a Johnson administration would "reduce taxes,
pollution and greenhouse gasses and build renewable energy with state
and federal funds that would not only produce thousands of kilowatts of
free, clean electricity and not only produce thousands of jobs, but most
importantly stop the flow of billions of dollars out of our city and
state by reducing our overuse of fossil and nuclear fuels."

I think Johnson is right on target. I
You do?
The Observer's report is dangerously incomplete.
I'm concerned that you are so quick to endorse a candidate who is
anti-immigrant, pro-sprawl and stuck in the frame that taxes are
evil.
Johnson puts forward untruths (most of the University stadium is
privately funded), makes misleading statements (internet over
the electrical grid is hardly proven technology) and lacks the
vision to understand how well-planned urban development can
positively impact our region.
His rant about elms is simply bizarre.
Johnson has a lot of ideas. Whether they are good should be
seriously questioned.
