voter says
I want to see an article from his opponent. Gotta love free press when you are running for re election. I say we promote him to admiral and start saying keep our admiral. I am not a big fan of using titles that have nothing to do with an elected office. That is misleading and makes it seem that you are misleading the public. I am in your voting districe and still don’t know how you are a captain.
