Re “Shh. It Is Snooze Time. The Council Race Is Starting.”
I couldn't disagree more with Ari Noonan’s quote in yesterday’s story, “One could fall asleep between now and the April 13 election because there is not a hint of lightning in the race.”
I guarantee you that this will be one of the most interesting races for City Council that Culver City has seen in a long time. Although I am the underdog, you can call me the “Cinderalla candidate.”
I intend to run a populist unorthodox campaign that will get people to start thinking critically instead of following the political machine drones.
Although Ari might say that I am just a substitute teacher, I would like to remind him that I am also a realtor and once ran a $4 million company. I teach for the love of the challenge of teaching different classes, from kindergarten through highschool every day.
I will be bringing fresh ideas to the table in this campaign.
I will be highlighting the differences between myself and the other candidates.
The main difference I have with them will be that I am not afraid to stand up to political correctness, to the PC police.
If there is a large voter turnout, I will win. If the voter turnout is small, the political machine will win.
In the end it will be up to the voters to decide and not some pundit.
