Sun Post Gets It Half Right...Sort of

I could not help it when I read the pathetic and I mean P-A-T-H-E-T-I-C endorsement from Carlon Perry and Cecelia Drake. Even though I endorse Debby Moorhead for city council, they have used race and gender as their excuse. Pardon me Carlon and Cecelia, haven't you heard? The City has already hired a gay interior decorator to touch up the city chambers (boys room) and a janitorial company that hires illegals (unknown) to vacuum and dust and remove the garbage. (Tongue and Cheek)

I was utterly shocked to read the review from the Sun Post regarding Debby. I could tell it was completely the TOUCH of Cecelia. If I were Debby I would be pissed because this could have a backlash potential of voter revolt. In fact, it made me want to change my mind about endorsing Debby. However, I'm going to stand on it.

Now, the other candidate. A typical retired city bureaucrat with no executive experience. Granted, Willie has the executive experience but Ben has NONE! I could not see the point of his massive ad in the Sun Post trying to sway last minute voters. In my opinion, it was bad timing and a poor waste of money. Maybe if we put two and two together, they endorsed him because of the money spent on the ad. Who knows, but Carlon has been mentioned as someone who denied spending money on marketing advertising voter guides that are designed to trick voters into a fake and completely MADE UP endorsement. I got three of them myself from him. I also got about 7 of them now from the two city incumbents. This goes to show that the candidates can't get in touch with the citizens except for one, Samuel Anderson.

The Sun Post calls him (Ben) an 'Insider'. Just enough to keep it in THE CLUB. The citizens of Manteca have voiced their concern over the good'ole boys club and the constant voting in of those with 'city' experience. They want someone with their interests and concerns at heart who have gone to them and listened to them, not someone who borders on socialism.

Ben Cantu is the wrong candidate for Manteca. He would only bring more gridlock to the system with his experience. It is not the experience we need on the council. Just because he retired from our city does not mean he is qualified. If over the last 20 years there was something wrong, why didn't he stand up then? He was a part of everything that he attacks. Remember this.

Samuel Anderson is far better a leader and experienced executive we need on the Manteca City Council.
