Hal, no. We need less innuendo, more facts — please.
If, in your endorsement of Hal Conklin, you imply Angel Martinez is a racist because he “mistakenly” registered with the American Independent Party, which, in your opinion, is openly racist, you should explain why. You also implied Frank Hotchkiss is a racist, or at least acutely insensitive, by mischaracterizing a letter he wrote about the internment of Japanese Americans. Frank was merely making the point that critics of internment played the race card, while internment was actually a national defense necessity after Pearl Harbor — not racism.
You negatively imply Angel Martinez is a rich outsider, like President Trump. Notably, Angel ran a publicly held company, while Trump ran a privately held company — two drastically different situations. Running a public company requires leading by consensus, i.e., working with board members and shareholders — similar to a mayor working with councilmembers at the pleasure of voters.
