Your Biz at BBuz

Why bbuz?   In 2006 I ran for Mandan ND Mayor out of frustration with the Mandan ND city commission.  Like many in ANY community my involvement in local government in ANY form was minimal. I voted, paid my taxes and went about my business.  It wasn't until about 2004 I started pay more attention to city "government".  Our city commission seemed to be out of touch with a segment of the population, I being in that "segment".  Through the difficulty in trying to communicate what I thought were some true needs, I ran into roadblock after roadblock. I felt my only choice if change was to happen to reflect what I was hearing on the streets from that segment of the population of what they wanted I would have to break into the "hierarchy" of what we call our city commission. Through that adventure what I have found is a culture of government that many times shares only what they feel the taxpayer is "smart' enough to "handle", on a "need to know" basis.  Being the "Patriot" I am this did not sit right with my American beliefs.  I believe the "public" is smart enough and they have the right to know.  The information I obtain, I am posting for all to "digest" and base their decisions on what is best for them and their families.  My wish is for the community of Mandan to become engaged in the governing of our community and to be open and free to voice their opinions without fear of ridicule or retaliation.
