Everyone will be dashing to their computer to hear Andre' read a story so he can get some media coverage.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-8639565951249965612008-03-03T06:40:00.000-05:002008-03-03T06:40:00.000-05:00Carson's campaign sent out a press release to the news media yesterday announcing the time he would be at these two places. The point was to get the media to follow him to the schools and film and photograph him reading to students and hear him promote his plans for education. This is an annual event for the school. It is not an annual occurrence for a public official to use it as a photo op for his campaign, particularly one that is one week away.Gary R.

Andre Carson should be commended for doing this for our children. Once again, your partisanship is showing.<BR/>Your candidate could have gone to school here in the city also but elected to go somewhere else....so please dont set up yet another double standard.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-87987725668199150502008-03-03T06:23:00.000-05:002008-03-03T06:23:00.000-05:00"Someone should ask Andre why<BR/>he wouldn't attend a public university such as IUPUI for his post-secondary studies, instead of the private places that he selected."<BR/><BR/>IUPUI has standards for admission.

I dn't really have a problem with him doing it.<BR/><BR/>But, if I were runnning his campaign, I wouldn't schedule an event at a public school...given Andre's questionable collegiate matriculation.<BR/><BR/>Just sayin'.<BR/><BR/>The Cripe job is private-sector. If their principals are OK paying a guy to be elsewhere, that's their business.<BR/><BR/>But I do know a good friend who complained to Councilman Carson about some DPW issues in his council district. In November.

It is on this date every year to coincide with the birthday of DR. Suess.
