In the event that you know someone that does not want to become involved, please at least share the information. Here are the requirments that have been adjusted to allow family members to join as associate members. Natural mothers, adoptive mothers or stepmothers, who are citizens or legal residen...

Wow MCB my truest condolences and you are right it does not matter how we lose a child, it hurts forever. There are triggers that hurt us and they are usually are around the war or that type of stuff, the next three months are emotional challenges for us, Thanksgiving, Christmas and then Jan 20 he w...

Before I take your response as a jab, what are you trying to state? We just received a proclamation declaring a National Gold Star Mother day acknowledgement and I am working with another Vet Group to try and organize a local recognition- So what does my timing have to do with anything? I used a NEW...

Gold Star Mothers started during WWII. Mothers and Fathers of Service Members that are killed in a war, sew a Gold Star over their blue star and hang these with pride. Being I am a Gold Star Parent, I am interested in meeting more of us. There may be some Gold Star families in American Canyon. Fathe...

Thank you Mel. I grew up in the 60's and 70's and related to everyone of these memories. This was very good

I go back to 1961 when the School District promised a High School by the time I was ready for High School, I was 6 months old and my parents were promised such a school. My father was involved in many local issues, along with Mr. Mickolojick. I have heard this concept of our school district and am n...

MCB you need to go back and read my posting, I attacked no one, I cautioned everyone for providing mis-information and the consequences it has on the youth and the city. I aknowledged your right to disagree. I attacked no one and I don't care if you are tired of my behavior. I even re-printed it bel...

I have sat here and watched as people have started attacking the most important issue to ever be decided in American Canyon since incorporation. While you have the right to your opinion, I have the right to disagree. Before you start your mis-information be sure you understand the damage that you wi...

Below is the response to my inquiry from the Calif Labor Commissioners office Quote Mr. West: J.T. Miller was hired as a Deputy Labor Commissioner I on 2/16/2000. The position is a civil service position not appointed by the Governor. For information on the qualifications of the position you can vis...

I must admitt there has been more interaction in the last few weeks than in the months that I have been on this web site. I started buying into the HATE DOT COM stuff, when I watched as people attacked the recognition ball, attacked the forth of July, etc. I will try and check that comment in the fu...

I do respond on this site when I can and I feel there is a sincere interest to the questions. AC94503 we have bumped heads at times, but I respond to you because I think you are sincere in your questions. I appreciate that. My comments about out of state crimes was a demonstration of how I am provid...

None of the forums are live, however Harry Martin's show is live on Monday and the candidiates will be on it at 6pm.

None are televised live. They are shown over a perid of time on channel 28 via tape.

Last night no one showed up except Leon, so it was not a forum. Tonight we had a forum, only Kym Gilson did not show up. It will be televised next week on Channel 28, you will have to check the diretcory for Channel 28. As far as the content, I will not be weighing in on that, leave that to the peop...

Cindy Calling MCB Miranda Bailey is not an attack because she has anonymity. You can't have an attack on an unknown entity? I can say anything I want about a moniker and it is not anything. It is just my opinion on a non-entity. As an example today I was advised by a pretty reliable source that Fran...

amcannative

Below I have quoted where you called me a liar here, you lied about where I worked at the time and you imply that I had special treatment- That is an attack. I had nothing to do with the article, nor the information nor any attacks on Cindy. I was scrutinized in June and they probably figured why re...

amcannative

All Star 4- Thanks for attending. I was amazed that only Leon attended. However, there were well over 50 people when I was there. perhaps some left when they saw there was only one candidiate. I do thank you for coming. Everyone should know there will be another forum tonight same time and place for...

She has to show all expenses or donations or gifts of $100 or more- Sonoma Printers is the standard UNION printer used locally. And since Cindy is so civicly minded she would keep her dollars local and union. Regardless, let's see who she used? Then lets see the answer- I heard the rumor that MCB is...

amcannative

What local printer" Does her 460 show teh Sonoma Blvd Printer?

Maybe we should exmaine her receipts and find the dates of the order and who she paid locally

I also interviewed with the unions. I am not anti-union, I was Vice President of a union. I have worked on Joint Labor Management committees from the Labor side and sat on two negotiation committees in actual negotiations all on LABOR's side. I am being attacked as anti-union because: I am against u...

MCB- I did not work for the County at the time. It was 16 years ago. My wife carried our medical insurance and when DEY labs laid her off, we lost her coverage so I assumed coverage from my employer at that time, Mervyns. Problem was that they would not cover pre-existing conditions. My wife was alr...

Well Merry Jester if you read the entire content of the post instead of taking it out of context you would have realized that I was referring to fact that Minding City Biz works for a PR firm and lives in Vallejo and is connected to a Lawyer involved in the Wal-Mart suit. No threats. By the way the ...

amcannative

Challenging someone to a debate is abusive? My words were "Would you like to debate that", that is threatening and abusive? When a candidiate talks about secret meetings and no public meetings with regards to Wal-Mart as JT Miller did that night, these are lies. I called him on his lies. I...

You know Frankie G if you ever want to feel intimidation or berated, just run for office. When annonymous people can make comments and call you names and you have no idea who they are or where they are and you can't face your accuser, that is intimidation and beratment at it's definition. The differ...

You are no new citizen, you have lived here for years, you just changed your moniker. I have received $600 in donations in the last week from individuals. Your neighbors did not remove their signs they were taken by other fans. What I have demonstrated is that if you push me and lie abot me and mis-...

I back Leon for Mayor. Don and I told you that at lunch. We told you that he is the only one that has not sued the city and that we respect that. We told you that we wished he would call you on your miss-information. I believe what we said was that Leon has to show that he can engage and challenge y...

Measure "G" is a joint effort and needs to pass. When I had questions I went to the source, John Glaser. John and I spoke a few weeks back and he explained the increased costs. Basically they have had to not only adjust the previous estimates due to normal inflation, but the increases asso...

Paulette I pasted Don's letter into Word. Then hit Control "F" and search for the word "we". He uses we in the context of responding to Paul's context of the fact that Paul is referring US, and he uses "we" as a reference to what the city wants? I am very proud to be vo...

amcannative

I do not believe that the chamber had any obligation to interview anyone. The word fraud is used too liberally here. Fraud is stating that something was done, but was actually not done. Like the article where Paul's treasurer last year "Burr", who also wrote for the Napa Solano Post that P...

Amcan has partcipated in the past, I was working with Bob Schwerin to get it re-kndled until he retired. There were some issues with Workers Comp, and then when he retired it fell to the way side. I think one thing that drives these types of programs is the desire and support of the community to mak...

The union is not an issue. American Canyon used to participate in the program. I run this program and know that the School District uses them on weekends no children involved, Cal Trans uses them, CDF will be using them for brush removal, City of Napa used to use them. These are all PUBLIC EMPLOYEE ...

The Director of any Jail is authorized to utilize sentenced people as workers for use by government agencies as well as non-profit agencies for local work projects.

What is wrong with a ticket? I have to vote for two council members and a Mayor also. I would be the fool to not support the candidiate that I intend to vote for?

Where do you see the Oat Hill Plan(That's the area North of Eucalyptus and west of Theresa) as far as build out time and what would you like to see there for the community?

Paul, I invite you or anyone who has evidence of wrong doing or malfeasance at the jail to report it to the DA or the Grand Jury etc. They review us annually per State Law. Be very careful implying that I have personally abused anyone. I have worked in or around Law Enforcement for over 25 years. te...

Paul, now you are equating yourself to Rosa Parks? Check your history. Rosa did not file a suit, she defied the law and was booked and convicted. The action was taken in her name. You are putting yourself pretty high up by comparing yourelf to Rosa Parks. That is my property that you are abusing. Mi...

The political sign ordinance is more about integrity and character than signs. Not one of you that wants to minimize the issue has addressed the idea that it shows no character or integrity to ignore a law because you disagree with it. Would you raise your kids that way? Would you tell them that if ...

AC94503 that is a great idea. Don and I have been tryng to plan a candidates forum based on the historical old "soap box". In other words get up, speak and then get spoken to, by the audience or by the other candidiates etc. Polite, respectful, but inter-active. Also any questions asked wi...

So many people turned out last night for Don and I's kick off party that we ran out of chairs and food. For that I appologize. I appreciated the none believers that showed up.

I appreciate the feedback and comments about issues. Having walked over 1500 homes personnally in the June race and helpers hit another 1800, I received quite a bit of feedback.

It is very common to have kick off parties and election night parties jointly.

I really appreciate the pro-active tone and you sharing your concerns. I think a thread of issues would be great. We all know the major issues, traffic, a High School, infra-structure, but these issues seem small, but they are directly related to the quality of life and our appearance directly relat...

American Canyon is not a single issue community and signs are not a minor issue to some. The issues? That is a great concept, but which one? As I campaigned last time I found the issue was the noise in the AM from the garbage trucks, some felt that they were being ripped off in lighting and landscap...

Paul Please quit naming me as sources of postings here- I am not doing that to you. DO not use my name unless you know it is correct- That is only courteous.

Rio Rancho Rey- I never called anyone a name, find it, show me where I called anyone a name? Secondly, those forums had no rules. The campaign has an ordinance about signs, the forum had no rules.
