I am the only candidate talking about Tulsa.  I have a large and growing group of supporters.  Why do some organizations want to hold closed forums with only the partisan candidates?  Why do the Democrat and the Republican spend all their time and their contributors’ money tearing each other down, while avoiding candid discourse with the one leader who is trying to build Tulsa up.

Doesn’t Tulsa deserve public debates, with media present, in front of all of Tulsa, about Tulsa issues, so the voters can make an informed choice on November 10?  Isn’t that what democracy is supposed to be all about?

Have we given ownership of our city to private interests, partisan politics, handlers, and the status quo?  Have we lost the courage and conviction to stand up and support what is right?  Have we lost our principles?
