Painter with New Energy for Our City

In running as an independent for city council I have come to realize many things about the political arena in Cincinnati. I will not go into detail at this point, however my realizations begs several questions that I pose to you as an educated citizen and voter.

Has the current council achieved what you had hoped for? Are you happy with the same people on city council that have been there year after year? Do you examine the individuals you vote for; their track record; their ability to create action oriented teams who work together efficiently?

Becoming more common in our consumeristic society very few of us take the time to examine the life we're leading, the job that barely keeps us content. We are controlled subconsciously by the marketing put front of us, choosing the brands we recognize instead of having the ability to stop and examine our lives and our decisions. Maybe it's time we took the time and thought about the decisions we are making. Maybe if we were all more conscious in the decisions we make the world would be a different place.

What kind of politician are you going to be??? Do you think that the citizens are stupid and don't realize that almost all of your signs are illegal? How can we trust and elect someone that can't even get legitimate yard sign locations? Last I checked it was illegal to put political signs on the HIGHWAY!! It just looks tacky and rediculous.

Thank you for being truthful instead of just another politician. I hope you get in, we could really use your young and creative energy.

Why should we elect you to manage the city's finances when you can't even manage your own? It takes a lot of chutzpah to run around telling everyone how successful a developer you are when you consistently are delinquent in paying the real estate taxes on your buildings. We already have plenty of deadbeat taxpayers. We don't need one on council.
