Samuel Anderson To Run For Mayor of Manteca


I'm very happy to see that Samuel Anderson has decided to run against incumbent Willie Weatherford. I believe he will be a much better candidate than Ben Cantu and eventually a tough mayor for our city.

Samuel is correct when he says there are two candidates that have pensions paying out from the city and that concerns me. For too long we have seen councilmen playing politics because they have been involved with the city and know who everyone is. In fact, they have allegiances to many in order to keep the status quot.

I'm not sure how Samuel will run his campaign this time, but I'm sure it will be an interesting one. His focus is strictly on finance and this is what we need. We need to accept the fact that we already have things we need to hang on to for a little while longer until we get our budget and finances under control. The rest will follow and this is why I support Samuel Anderson for Mayor. A long-shot for sure, but a very good chance.

Manteca Business Over-view

I have decided to write about some Manteca businesses because after spending some time in these shops, they were horrible and treated their customers and any others just like dirt.

First, the Christian bookstore in the old Mervyn's center off of Main Street. These people only wish to promote items that are Christian only and from those they know rather than items that are Christian oriented and personally manufactured in Manteca. When approached about being able to take on items to sell from various Manteca companies and artists, they ignored the request and sent the persons on their way.

Next comes the Hallmark store on W. Yosemite Avenue, the crossroads intersection of Yosemite and Main. This store sits on the corner of Maple and Yosemite. The lady in that store was so rude, she did not even wish to know who was talking to her. I'm not going into details here, but even if this is your own store, the citizens of Manteca have been paying dearly with tax dollars to upkeep these old stores and also promote them. When someone comes in as a local artist or business that can promote local products and benefit both, and all the lady does is give a very bad attitude and send the person on their way, I say enough is enough.

So, my personal discovery of these two stores are this, do not shop at these stores, they suck! The owners and managers are not customer friendly and they are bitter old hags. The service and attitudes of these store owners are something that no one should have to endure. Both these stores rate a dismal 'F'. Go spend your dollars somewhere else!

How to take back the country


We are at a tremendous opportunity now to take back the country and basically place Obama in a position of not being able to do anything, a first term lame duck president.

This means we need to take back the Congress and now is the time to do it. When we do it, we can literally STOP all payouts of all the programs and including paying the salaries of the czars who are political appointees designed to bypass the Congress, our representatives.

Conservatives and everyone who has started to realize that 'hope' and 'change' were nothing more than a smoke screen to lie, cheat and steal our lives and future lives of generations to come, we can do it! When 2010 comes, ensure that you vote for everyone other than those with a (D) after their names. Basically, only with an (R). Let's crush the socialists and media elites. They are all traitors to this nation.

I'm sure you remember what we use to do with traitors. I wish that were true today.
