[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Grifter. Took the first opportunity to abandon Newark and the failure of the $100 million gift to the public schools. Cares more about perception, social media than leadership.

The Prize is great book that highlights his true character.[/quote]

Huh? He was on the Newark City Council for 4 years and mayor for 7. How is that abandoning Newark "the first chance" he got?  Now he serves his state as senator in Congress. PP you're grasping. [/quote]

He used Newark as his necessary stepping stone because he wants to become a career politician, putting his time in because of his higher aspirations with ambivalence and disdain about true educational reform and economic turnaround in the city he represented.

I hope he is held accountable for the school debacle and people educate themselves about his actions and not just the speeches he is making today. He's no different than any other shady career politician but I would actually consider not voting for Hilliary on principle alone if she choses him as her running mate.
