I don't see how a city that is prepared to vote overwhelming for Barack Obama can read his education platform, and then believe that the failure of these last three years in terms of school modernization can be at all justified.

And then to compound the failure by giving public money to a baseball stadium before you have even modernized a single public school?

That's why I say it is time for a change in Richmond.

Given this continuing failure on school construction, there is no justification for the City of Richmond dipping into it's budget, currently 6 million in the red, and spending many millions on constructing a new Baseball Stadium.
