Nevertheless, I'm interested in what happens everywhere in the state. You wrote: "in one of the greenest cities in the country, shouldn’t we have a Metro President that passionately argues for the value, purpose, and necessity of regulations and government’s role? Shouldn’t we have someone that helps educate about such? Shouldn’t we have someone that includes and involves communities and groups, and brings them to shared goals?" My answer is yes, absolutely. My question is, why are there no challengers, Green Party or otherwise? Why, in this precious green state are development-friendly people getting the upper hand? Where are the people who love it and care about the environment? Why won't they run? Maybe the "conspiracy" folks are right and "chemtrails" are impairing our judgment. Let's hope that at some point, before all is lost under the rubble of buildings, we wake up and step up. Thanks for your blog. Very informative.
