It's quite possible that the perception exists that Don's campaign focuses on Jordan because he currently resides in Jordan. However, upon closer inspection you'll find that his Campaign Co-Chair is Jennifer Young, a highly respected businesswoman from NE. We held an christmas party at the Calif

If I may quote Hoosiers, Gene Hackman's character said, "there's a tradition in
tournement play not to climb the step ahead before you climb the one you're on." I
think it is not only not shortsighted to have not thought about 2005, but
irresponsible to do so.

Robert,
You raise a good point, one that I've made a number of times on this list, and I
kindly suggest that you ask Brother Shane's people to do the same thing. I have a
number of close friends in the 3rd ward (one of which even grew up with Shane) who
have told me the same thing that (I have
I think people may be missing Loki's point.
My read of Loki's post is not that focusing on 2003 is short-sighted.
Instead I think what Loki is concerned about is that with Don Samuel's
campaign, all the discussion appears to be about Jordan neighborhood and not
the entire 3rd Ward. Since Jordan

Hello Minneapolis Folks:
I would hope that all the candidates running in the Third Ward would focus on their vision for the city. I personally prefer to vote for candidates that provide a plan that they want to implement to solve problems in our city. I am not impressed by whisper campaigns and be

You're certainly entitled to your opinion. However, I fail to see how a campaign/candidate running for a primary election for city council seat in 2003 that does not have a strategic plan in place for the 2005 election, can be viewed as short-sighted.
To the contrary, I personally would be highly

Because he has never to my knowledge needed to say that he was or is the

I actually live in the 3rd ward, so I'm not sure (by your post), if I'm qualified to answer your hypothetical question. I'll take a stab at it anyway.

I'd really like to understand the motivation for your inquiry. If I'm to understand you correctly, the question you'd like answered by Anne McCandless is whether or not Don Samuels is a person of substance, or a media hype?

I support such a resolution. Many Americans are being treated no different than Japanese Americans during World War II, presumed guilty before any real evidence has been established of a crime being committed. Politicians can decide to take the "safe" political position of
