I'll start thinking about questions...... wonder if I should formulate them right when I take my medication, or wait a while........hmmmm. anyway, certainly for the mayoral candidates, something along the lines of how do they see their position when mayor working with the council, relative to the checks and balances of power and the operation of the city. See, it seems to me, Mayor don refuses to compromise whatsoever on anything he wants done that the council won't adopt EXACTLY as he wants. Its all or nothing with the donald. Thus the work arounds, sneak attacks like the latest police command changes. So what do these candidates see as the roles & responsibilities of the mayor position and the council positions [ignoring totally the individuals in those positions]? But that may be too generic and allow them to slip out without really saying anything but pablum. I think something should be formulated on the city charter and whether specific acts taken are or are not in accordance with the charter, and if they were elected would they rescind those decisions or continue to defend them. oh yeah, got to get to work on these....right Ted, Rap, et al.... _________________ Biggie Fri Dec 15, 2006 10:44 pm  DELETED Guest DELETED _________________ Guest post Fri Dec 15, 2006 11:25 pm  Steve Myers Site Admin Show Guest: Bob Leonard - Former District Attorney Norman Bryant - Mayoral candidate Adam Ford - Mayoral candidate Terry Bankert - Attorney At Law Ryan Eashoo - Member of the Flint Historic District Commission Sandy Hill - Flint City Council 4 Ward Ehren Gonzales - Flint City Council 8 Ward Dale Weighill - Mayoral candidate Jonh Roman - Radio Talk Show Host _________________ Steve Myers Sat Dec 16, 2006 6:38 am  Voice of Reason Guest Keep your orginal video tape close, and the one filming it closer.

I had such high hopes! He had no intention from the begining of living up to any of his promises! Tue Dec 19, 2006 7:51 pm  John Wilson F L I N T O I D My favorite quote of the moment, which I am going to turn into a question for The Laundry Room guys to ask the candidates: "Elections are won by men and women chiefly because most people vote against somebody rather than for somebody. - Franklin P. Adams" That's very true. And so my question for any candidate is that you will most likely be getting lots of NO votes for Don which in turn translate to YES votes for you. What are three things you plan on doing during your campaign to ensure that voters are voting for YOU and not just voting AGAINST Don Williamson?

WHAT....is your favorite color?.... WHAT....is your quest?..... WHAT..is the maximum recorded air speed of an African swallow? [with apologies to Monty Python and the Holy Grail]. How about, "How would you do characterize your leadership style versus the mayor's?" "When new national administrations take office, there is often a focus on the first 100 days in office; that those first 3 months establish both the tenor and agenda for the administration...what will be the top 3 items you will want the administration to address and accomplish." follow-up, "What resources, other parties [county, city council, unions, state, etc] will it be necessary to engage, to accomplish those 3 items, and how do you expect to engage them?" "Hip-hop or Jazz?" "Boxers or briefs?" "original or extra-crispy?" _________________ Biggie Tue Dec 19, 2006 9:18 pm    Display posts from previous:   All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First
