Vote for the incumbents for the FUHSD board.

The people are not happy with the unemployment, foreclosures and slow economic recovery. So they will show their anger On November 2, 2010 when they go to the polls to elect governors, senators, representatives, etc. They will show their displeasure with the current administration. So are we going to see a Republican landslide or just only some discontent votes? It's possible that the Republicans will take over the Senate and Congress.

Although the mood is anti-incumbency, and I concur that we should vote for new people to give their chances at providing new ideas to tackle the current problems, there is an exception in Cupertino regarding the board members of the Fremont Union High School District (FUHSD). Three are up for reelection: Barbara Nunes, Hung Wei and Bill Wilson. Although they made some mistakes for wasting money on the measures, it seems that there are no alternatives. Their opponents are not up to the job. How can a family of three do a better job than the incumbents? Nobody wants a dictatorship on the board. As for the other candidate, he might want to do some volunteer work first by helping at school and participating in the PTA. Bill Wilson was first elected because his wife was President of the PTA. So he got his support base from the beginning through his wife. Hung Wei was appointed because of her involvement with the PTA and community. So being an engineer with a child attending one of the schools in the district does not mean that he has the experience to be a board member.

So vote against the past for the governor and the senate, but vote for the incumbents for the FUHSD board. Do not vote for new taxes.
