James Carter for Congress

James Carter is the New Orleans city councilman from district C. If you don't pay attention the what the city council is doing, you might not know him. You owe it to yourself to tune into Chanel 10 on Cox cable once in a while to see this guy represent. Mr. Carter is always even tempered, thoughtful and persuasive. He is a staunch advocate of the needs of his poorest constituents, but is able to work effectively with corporate needs for development. In short, he is exactly what this community needs in a leader.

I knew all this about him before, and I was impressed, but last night I heard Inspector General Robert Cerecoli speak. He made it clear that he would not endorse any candidate, but as he told tales of his first year as New Orleans IG he came to speaking of James Carter. Mr. Cerecoli's comments about James Carter were succinct. "The most honest man I have met in the City of New Orleans."

That about does it for me:

James Carter for Congress!
