San Jose Inside

Description

A little-known Union hero of the Battle of Gettysburg was Brig. Gen. John Buford. On the first day of that epic struggle to determine the fate of the United States, he had the judgment to seize the high ground outside of the town and, with it, the victory was all but assured—only the deadly bloodletting was to follow for three horrible, tragic days. Well, it’s only June, but never too soon to begin the speculation on who will have the high ground in the election for mayor next November. In this campaign, the key issues will be ethics, growth and vision. Chavez is attempting to make it a schools and neighborhoods choice, but she has a daunting task.

So now that we’ve all had a week to digest the events of last Tuesday, my question is: “Where do we go from here?” As you know, I strongly supported David Pandori and his ideas of change and reform. I thought (and still think) he would have been great for our city. And many other citizens (those who actually took the time to vote) did too— unfortunately, just not enough of them. But it’s all playing the game of “coulda-woulda-shoulda” at this point.

I’d like to tell you about two dogs named “Buck.” The first one is widely known because he was the lead character in the famous book, “The Call of the Wild,” by Jack London.
