I was speaking to a native leader at the Buffy Sainte Marie concert Sunday in Georgetown. The conversation reflected a view held among many many Islanders to whom I have spoken over the last few weeks.
There is a real level of distaste for the actions or inaction of many politicians and their failure to continue to speak to people after elected ...Continued failure of education even after all the promises ...Lack of connection with the very people who voted them in.
There was a heart felt request that I not stop being who I am and to remain true to what I believe in once I am elected.
The bottom line is that people are asking for leaders and leadership that they can respect and trust; they are not even looking for leaders they agree with. Just ones that they can respect and trust.
