We have observed that many political leaders in the county seem uninterested in communicating with us. I suggest a solution: <b> Become a township official!</b> Think about it. The pay isn't much, and you can invest as much time as you are able, but you can learn a lot and make a difference in your locality. 2009 will see at least one Supervisor in each township elected. There are other positions too. And, it's time to get started. In many positions there are no candidates. You can make a difference.
