Vote for a Change on Nov 8, 2011

What do we want for our city? The status quo or a change?

The status quo is represented by Gilbert Wong and Marty Miller. Why Marty Miller because he's a friend of Wong and a fixture of the planning commission. He will side with Wong to do the same thing.

The change is represented by Homer Tong and Rod Sinks. They are the new faces who were not in a commission and could bring a new perspective to the city council.

This is the first time ever that a vice mayor came out strongly against a fellow council member through Tong and Sinks. Mark Santaro came to office as a new face who campaigned for transparency. Now that he's part of the establishment, he prefers to keep the status quo. He is against council member Barry Chang, although he reiterated that he was not against him in his letter to the editor to the Cupertino Courier. He was against Chang because he did not want Chang to have friends in the names of Tong and Sinks who are against the Lehigh cement plant. It seems that he's for the cement plant. By attacking his fellow council member, he got the opposite effect that he wanted. He said that it's a thankless job. So why is he still here? Why doesn't he resign? Because he wants power. He wants to be the Lord Mayor of Cupertino.

We should limit to only one term instead of two terms. Also we should elect directly the mayor and not let the council members take turn to be mayor.

On Nove 8, 2011, vote for Homer Tong and Rod Sinks to send a message to the establishment. It's time for a change.

Vote NO on Measure C because we don't want the visitors to stay in Sunnyvale which has a lower hotel tax.
