Hey Johnny-Come-Lately,
It seems you went on the web or somewhere and copy and paste this:

I must say it looks good. Trying to strike the right tone huh? SMH
Sooooo many conflicts to declare
A strong McMac man without a moral compass, the soup kitchen is only a campaign tool; vote for him and corruption will reach a all new high!
This is really bad news.
Oh no. This is not good.
The soup kitchen and toys give away at Christmas was a strong indication that this was going to happen.
Sad that you start your campaign with soup and toys.
How about some empowerment.
I would sooner spoil my vote than cast one for PPM or CDP yes-people. To be honest, even the CIPP leadership cast lacks credibility, having presided over PAC for years and not having held a single person to occupational account, let alone charges. 3C might have offered hope had the trio not also included an abysmal former party member, trailing behind in the team jersey, hoping nobody notices.
We need a unified ensemble, that is willing to be honest about the herculean task of dealing with our entrenched corruption issues, and fielding a credible team to deal with it all. We need to hear their plans to increase transparency, accountability, and broaden representation.
Note: that’s the opposite of this guy’s stated ambition of entrenching old dogma, xenophobia, and conservation of what?Creationist-based corrupt traditions? It’s not the Environment, or he would have said that.
At this round, we should be well beyond misleading bullet points, and campaign tag lines that sold in the past. We thirst for honest ambitions, and executable vision that speaks to the meat of public conversation. That this guy doesn’t even acknowledge the public’s frustration with the 800lb gorilla, is disqualifying in my opinion – and I say that as a voter for WBS.
Raul, when I saw the community soup kitchens I did wonder if you were going to run since I thought you weren’t;t working with Digital anymore. (hope your company is doing well, rough times for all of us).
Secondly, it would be ironic if you were to beat Tara, because I thought (please correct) you and both your parents weren’t born here and you have status because of great grand parents…..
Third. If you’re running with Mr. Bush to replace your buddy CG, let us know. You might get votes if you do.
I hope to get answers here but if not, will ask at your meetings or in person.
Good Luck, Raul. Tara is Alden’s Lackey and her time is over.
Neither of them suitable. Alden’s lackey and Coe Mac’s lackey. Please show more respect for yourself and the honourable house this election.
McKeeva supporter.
Raul, Raul , please before anybody rats you out declare sll of your past dealings with Mac Bush bredren, people have loooong looooong memories Remwmberalla dem trips Iah/Breda.
This is not good.
