The Parks Plan
There is no doubt who Eighth District voters should elect on March 4th. There is no other candidate who comes close to the experience of Bernard Parks. But, what's even more impressive, Parks brings a type of understanding that is unparalleled. He has seen and survived the ills of the city, has taken unprecedented steps to solve them and knows where to go from here. In other words, "Parks gets it"!
