[Mpls] Jennings @ the whipping post

[LEE EKLUND]

It appears time to unleash Jennings from the whipping post. It is fair to state most Minnesotan's do not make the income of an interim superintendent, nor should they. A man of Jennings status and public service brings much to the table. I am confident few could disagree that decades of public service and business experience could benefit the Minneapolis Public School System (MPS). A man of Jennings status can command $300,000 to $500,00 per year in the private sector with his knowledge of politics and business; and he is willing to work for a dramatic wage reduction to serve the citizens of Minneapolis. Should even one connection Jennings has made over the decades result in even a $10 increase per student in funding for the MPS, the result is roughly $500,000 to MPS, covering his salary at a profit to the citizens. An outside candidate will face years of building relationships with the powers to be and will be a dis-service to the taxpayers of Minneapolis.     Lee R. Eklund Victory
