Wonder if Harold Sr.

still smokes weed...

. I smoked it with him a long time ago. I don't smoke it now, haven't for decades.

Harold, did you have a change of heart about marijuana? Or do you still get high on it? I attended both forums that Ford participated in recently.

Not since the wit wisdom of Dan Quayle has the electorate been exposed to such butter-knife like wit, offered by the deer-in-the headlights Mr.Ford. At one point during the previous forum, Mr.

Ford proposed to reduce crime by putting less police officers on our streets and implying that 'crime' was a by-product of gentrification. His rambling, inability to focus on the questions put before him and his constant attempts at mudslinging prompted laughter and derision from the audience. At one point, the 'honorable' candidate seemed to lose his patience with his potential constituents.

One wonders if Mr.Ford is unable to govern his outbursts at public forum, how does hope to offer governance to our district? I could care less if he did drugs in the past, (I just wish that he wouldn't do them immediately before attending a public forum) or that he may have assaulted his father, girlfriend, or brother.

The way a man conducts himself in private is his business after all. But when a man runs for public office then, we must allow ourselves to try and look into not the 'color of his skin, but the content of his character'. We are at that moment is history, foretold by a man of great character that served the people to the deepest level.

My family has been involved in Democratic party politics since my Grandfather Father supported Harold Ford Sr. Jr. Jake Ford IS NO Harold Ford (Sr.

or Jr.) This district (like our nation) is in serious need of good political leadership, from men of good character, whose proven commitment to the people is on record. The only record(s) that we may have of Jake Ford is arrests, GED test scores and 'some' college transcripts.

Mr. Ford is a dangerous mix of divisive racial politics and ambition. Not that this district is any stranger to such antics, but it would refreshing to have politicians that were truly (truthfully) unifying in their message mission.

Be assured, Jake Ford's commitment is to himself, a self that has so far proven to be vain, arrogant and at the very least 'troubled'. If, Mr.Ford is truly interested in the public good, he should do the public an honorable service: withdraw, sir and allow men of better character to serve our district.

Mr. Ford, you are truly interested in serving your fellow man, may I suggest Habitat for Humanity, MIFA or something better suited to your qualifications like the many of several Taco Bell locations throughout the state. You do a great dis-service to the Democratic Party and the democratic process, by continuing your candidacy.
