We should all urge the current city commission, mayor and city manager to hold off on any agreements and decisions on the Biltmore lease until the new commission is installed in April 2011.
An attempt now to push through an agreement by Mayor Slesnick and a Biltmore-friendly commission would not stand a test of transparency and openness.
This same commission is one that got us into this mess.

This website will submit short a series of questions to each candidate for mayor and commissioners in Coral Gables. I will post written responses here on the website. If you have a question please send it to me and it will be included in the list. Please allow for my appropriate editing to maintain uniformity.
Thank you.

Can it be that a country has brought about peaceful change without the intervention of the US.
This must be Egyptian exceptionalism.
Can it Be?
Can it be that the biggest country in the Middle East is solving its own problems without the intervention of America?
This is an important lesson for US foreign policy makers who think that the first step to democracy is war and intervention. Nonviolent demonstrations won out over trillion dollar wars and thousands of the deaths.
The Egyptian people can now claim a special place in history of democratic reforms–and without outside help.

Following current events on Al Jazeera English on the internet. Very good coverage with many different views to balance excellent coverage on CNN.
It is a shame that Comcast and others are not willing to include Al Jazeera English.
