[Mpls] Spin Control for THIRD WARD candidate....,

[Kelly K Phillips]

I am a campaign volunteer for Don Samuels and I have been horrified at the disrespectful things two people have been saying about Don as a person, or the insults to Don's truly grassroots campaign. I am a student at the U of MN in Urban Studies and a Jordan resident for two years. This is the first campaign I have volunteered for and the process has been very exciting. I urge everyone who is interested in politics to try volunteering for a candidate you believe in!

    The campaign suggested we not respond to slander because it is obvious there are two people who are looking for a fight, rather than a respectful debate. If anyone who list lurks or otherwise is looking for information on the two candidates, please come to the debate Thursday night at 7:00 PM (Holland Neighborhood Improvement Association Discussion around the Central Ave. Corridor - development at 24th & Central).
 
    I have seen Don in action. Don is capable of representing both North and Northeast. A post from Fred Markus a while back regarding Don's view of Central Ave. is an example of how Don is looking at NE. His activism speaks for itself - Don has been and will be an advocate for children. He has organized after school programs, worked with at-risk kids, and served as a Curriculum Committee Chair. Don is not a famous name. However, he does possess a unique set of experiences that qualify him for service. To find out more visit his web site at www.donsamuels.org.
