Violence Against Women Ward 8 City Council Candidate Town Hall

Matthews Memorial Church, 2616 Martin Luther King Jr. Ave SE

Well they do say, "Imitation is the highest form of flattery".

For weeks Ward 8 residents and commuters have seen CHARLES WILSON and the Charles Wilson (definitely unpaid) supporters waving "Charles" signs and campaigning on the corner of Martin Luther King Ave. directly across from the Anacostia metro. Charles and his volunteers have been on the street faithfully Monday thru Friday from 7am - 8:30am, reaching out to the community and spreading the word one person at a time - "We set the tone!"

Well Barry MUST be feeling the heat and realizing that his usual "fighter for the people" propaganda is falling on deaf ears. He has now resorted in a DESPERATE attempt to appear "vital and active" by COPYING the actions of our NEXT Council member of Ward 8 - Charles Wilson.

Today a vigilant Charles Wilson supporter alerted TBSH that the self-professed "Mayor for Life" and his (allegedly uncompensated) supporters waiving signs and campaigning on a corner in Congress Heights.

Another example of Barry's "too little and too late" philosophy!

Time Is Ticking! Only 3 Weeks Until Primary!

With only 3 weeks to go we need everyone both in Ward 8 and in DC to get active and involved in order to topple the Barry machine.

If you heard the WAMU candidate debate this morning then you heard the self professed "Mayor for Life" touting his "track record" as a main reason Ward 8 should keep him in office. Essentially he promised "more of the same". While he kept talking out over candidates and making false accusations (incredulously enough about someone else's campaign supporters) he said a whole lot of nothing.

Obviously Marion either needs a clue or he is blatantly lying to the people about what is going on. Anyone who walks the streets of ward 8 can see how Marion Barry has failed the people he was sworn to support and serve. Marion has consistently and repeatedly put his own needs second to those of the people. MB has not only failed the people of Ward 8 but the people of the District. His antics only add to the confusion, corruption and division within what could be a wonderful city.

It is time to remove Marion Barry...it is time to elect change.

Let's elect Charles Wilson for Ward 8 council so that Charles can unite the people of Ward 8 and unite the other Ward 8 candidates of Ward 8 so that we can heal ourselves from within.

Marion Barry isn't to blame for all of our problems but he has long sense stopped being a solution, despite his thoughts to the contrary.

More Barry rhetoric and pandering plus another edition of the "Barry and Sandra" show (although she did call him on his BS).

When will be able to get down to business?

BARRY AND BRAXTON-JONES JUST ARRIVED AT THE WAMU 88.5 CANDIDATE DEBATE

Surprised he even showed up. Late - not a suprise at all.

TODAY: WARD 8 CANDIDATE DEBATE AT 12PM ON WAMU, 88.5 FM

Please set a reminder for today and listen to this on the radio! We all need to get involved to see what his going on.

Not sure if Barry will show up for this or not. This is a community meeting and a debate so part of me says he will be a no show but then again the "mayor for life" will never turn down the opportunity for publicity so I think he will be there - smirk and all.

MONDAY, AUGUST 18th 12 noon
