Stop Electing Deadbeats

If I've said this once, I've written it more than a hundred times.We are not checking our elected and appointed leaders out.If they belong to a particular church,social group, or know insiders then they've got the job.
Once upon a time I knew a teacher that was not only an alcoholic, but a hard core cocaine addict. She'd been arrested multiple times for abusing drugs and driving intoxicated,but had connections through a Presbyterian Church in town(you can guess which one). Her parents kept her out of jail for years because they contributed huge amounts of money to the church, and consequently to our elected officials. Guess what? Due to her irresponsible lifestyle she contracted AIDS.Do you know how many students were victims under her care?She taught the physically impaired, and emotionally impaired in Duval County.There has been no repercussions for this
heinous behavior.To this day, she has never stopped drinking,shooting coke,or delivering a dose of AIDS to anybody that will have sex with her.All the cards are stacked in her favor.The only thing I could do was take her off my friend list until she got help.She hasn't, so we're no longer friends.
This isn't the only horrible story out there.Politics draw people like the Anthony Weiners, and Todd Akins,( Missouri's Republican Senate candidate, that questioned whether women can become pregnant when they're raped) of the world. Jacksonville leadership is no different.
Jacksonville churches and non-profits have swindled millions from the tax payers. The hurdle I see is getting people to run for office that will stand up to liars,thieves,and the manipulation of crooked business practices. The Jaguars have to be one of the most pitiful enterprises in Jacksonville history. They can now be called a drain on Jacksonville's economy.
