RAP Pastors are now a non profit and do not endorse , several have told me that individual pastors are speaking out on the need for an ombudsman. The mailing was printed yesterday. Its a turnkey operation with a mailing servcie . My guess it hits sat. Court Street, Grace emmanuel, scott school, east side and north Flint will vote to retain office is my projection. The opposition is in the wards of Kincaide and Gonzales . I do not know what the council people are doing. I talked to 6 people to -day, or rather yesterday. People are making up their minds between now and Sat.. Terry 2/21/06 Tue Feb 21, 2006 6:37 am  rapunzel Guest Was hoping to send announcement to individual Pastors for Sunday sermon. The middle class has been reached.We need to reach (as per given insight) those lower in our socio-economic city. Those that have the greatest need of this office. Do you need addresses?
