Who did what in a bar fight is really far less important to me than having a leader I can trust. I want a mayor who has proven himself by making difficult choices that may not always be what everyone wants to hear. I want a mayor who is not afraid to say what he plans to do rather than talk in feel-good generalities. I want a mayor who cares enough about Puna to support our CDP and come here and talk to people in a variety of small venues where he can make personal contact. I want a mayor who can honestly say he represents a break with the good old boy network of the past. I want a mayor who wants ALL our voices to be heard, and not just those with big money or connections. I want a mayor who doesn't always have a slick prepared speech ready, but speaks from his heart.
For all these reasons, I support Angel Pilago and urge all my friends and neighbors to do so. It really is our best chance to change the direction of Island politics in a positive way for a long time to come.
I'm sorry if this post disappoints everyone expecting the latest tit for tat in the barroom brawl brouhaha, but I feel like this is what's really important right now and needs to be said.
Cheerfully for Pilago,
Jerry
