Time Text
When we cover San Francisco, some people have no sympathy for San Francisco.
They say, oh, they voted for it.
Recent polls are saying is that 70% of the people of San Francisco are saying the city is now going in the wrong direction.
But we have too many people that have come into an office and they're, how do I get myself notoriety so that I can move to the next station in the position?
Go on from a supervisor to a mayor to a assemblyman to a senator to a governor.
Thomas Jefferson had a great mind.
He said that anyone Who wants to become a public servant and run for public office, don't elect them.
You, the public, look around and see who really represents you in the best way.
Elect them, but only give them a one seven-year term.
That way they don't have to worry about re-elections and special interests and raising money, and that they can work for the best they can, as hard as they can, for the community, public service, and then go back to what you normally did.
That way you eliminate a lot of these games that we see happening in politics today.
