VietVet,
Perhaps I
can humbly offer one suggestion.
I realize
that you do not live in Ward One, but certainly you know people that do live in
Ward One. You and I have met, and spoken
at length. You know me and you know
where I stand. I have made over 2,200
posts here on MiddletownUSA and several hundred more on the now defunct
Middletown Journal blogs prior to their demise, all using my real name. I have spoken before City Council, and at various public meetings many times. Therefore, I have a record of where I stand
and what I have said. People can look it
up if they care to do so.
The only
times that I have “changed” have been when I have discovered new information on
the subject under discussion, or someone has made a compelling argument that
has swayed my stance. But isn't "change" like that a GOOD thing???
Perhaps the
answer to the dilemma you posed above is as simple as talking to everyone that
you know in the First Ward who is 18 or over (or will be by election day) and
convincing them to VOTE FOR MIKE PRESTA FOR CITY COUNCIL in the First Ward! This won't solve everything, but it would be a step in the right direction. Granted, a small step, but a step nonetheless.
If they are
not registered to vote, encourage them to register!!!
Remember in
November: THEY’LL LIKE MIKE!
