Not a crack could be found. No separation whatsoever.

They find a cause that they are passionate about and go to work on it.<br /><br />All leaders aren't politiicians and most politicians aren't leaders.<br /><br />Community leadership comes from community members. You may occassionally find a politician with strong leadership skills but more than likely the best leaders are not burdened with political loyalities are are free to just get the job done. <br /><br />And about those lawn signs. I just think people are too lazy to throw them away.Stefan Rootshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01507926342159190494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4086135269585425380.post-88433418262761106412011-12-03T17:03:08.755-05:002011-12-03T17:03:08.755-05:00Hello,

That got me to thinking, why don't the same local leaders who encouraged everyone to take their side encourage those same people to take the signs down in representation of US putting aside differences and moving on as a city. If they were good enough leaders to run for office I hope that they would exercise their leadership and unite the city. We still need all of our leaders to do this whether they won or not. #TeamChesterAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
