| Publisher Description: The information in this book is a great Christmas gift for the citizens of Wilkes-Barre.After all the promises made by the five candidates in the 2015 election, have things in the City improved at all? Your author made some of those promises but unfortunately, he was not elected so he could not fulfill any.You may recall that to go along with an increasing crime rate, just two years ago, in the middle of Mayor Tony George's first term, a pair of researchers from Harvard & the University of British Columbia respectively, concluded that the Wilkes-Barre /Scranton metro area was the most unhappy place in the USA. That's not good A recently retired County Coroner noted the death rate from drugs is four times higher in Wilkes-Barre City than New York City. One could readily conclude that if Mayor George were happy with that, he would be the only one happy with how things have become for the people of the Electric City. Nonetheless the Mayor decided to give it a try for another four years. He was defeated in the Democrat Primary by George C. Brown, another fine man who goes through great pains about not being Mayor yet OK, George C., I get it. But, you will be the Mayor soon unless you do something out of character. Wilkes-Barreans know that I wrote a book earlier this year about John Q. Doe becoming the next great Mayor of the City of Wilkes-Barre. However, he is fictional, and primary Mayor-winner Brown is real, out of the two, for a real four-year term, I would put my money on George C. Brown. He is likely to be the next Mayor. I figure that it is OK to talk about the Primary victor as if he will be the next Mayor. I know it won't be you or me I do wish Mr. Brown were more vocal about what his plans would be as Mayor as I know I for one have asked him to adopt a plan that included fifty ways to improve our city. Mr. Brown and I have not spoken in person about this since the primary season. I am rooting for Mr. Brown to get a great showing in the Nov. 5 general election and that he becomes Mayor as expected. I would hope he entertains every good notion that I have written about how he can improve our potentially great City. I am hoping that he invited me into the Red Brick House (City Hall) so we can discuss ways in which great things can be implemented for our great city. The good news for Wilkes-Barre and for Mayor Brown is that I have written it all down. The same plan that John Doe put together anonymously to help the city is in my hands and I am willing to share. The John Does Plan which I designed was intended to make Wilkes-Barre the best City in the country if only John Q. Doe, or somebody just like him-like perhaps George C. Brown or a reinvigorated Tony George could be elected in November 2019. Since Tony George is not continuing his race, my friend George C. Brown is the guy. George Brown won the Primary day but he has been very quiet since. He knows he is not Mayor yet but he sure is the people's choice. Picking the right person for Mayor of Wilkes-Barre has not been easy. Residents had to make sure that the same ole routine would not happen again in WB. Knowing what a good Mayor would do to create a better City, as I detailed in the John Doe book, I gave the people a great read about how the next Mayor (George C. Brown) can save the City. The message for the people of course is Do not settle for anything less. Elect John Q. Doe for Mayor. If Doe won't or can't serve, then, use the John Doe Plan, aka the WB City Plan as detailed in the Doe Book. I am inclined t think that since he won the primary George C. Brown is the People's John Q. Doe. Perhaps George C, would say what John Q. said when running as a fictitious character in the Spring during the primary election season. It was inspiring. |
