I believe Dr. Flinn is the candidate to select. Let's go with intelligent, fresh ideas....No old politics...The people are crying out for this ! I live in the county and wake to the police racing
who knows where in the early hours of the morning....several times a month...Also we have been totally affected by this recession, my college educated husband lost his job almost 10 months ago.....We need jobs in Memphis......

PLEASE GET SOMEONE NEW....Fresh !

[Brian]

Please don't let it be Ford. For one he doesnt even live in the district for which he was elected. He has a house in the District but lives in Bartlett. The fact that he doesn't have his finances in order should be another reason.

I understand people go through hard times but if your going to manage Billions shouldn't you know how to manage your own money first.

[Snowbyrd]

Forget Joe Ford. He and his family make a career out of politics.
He can not manage his own finances. Select a smart honest trustworthy person with character who is ready to give fresh ideas and expertise to this position. One that puts service to the community & citizens first...not like politicians who want to make excuses and put money in their pocket first.

[David H]

Please no more Ford's. He isn't even a resident.

[Raymond Hazel]

None of this people should be Mayor, all politics and I know politics is crooked

[IsItNow]

Pick someone who would want it with experience and who is not in government at the present time - like former Comissioner Tommy Hart.

[Kathy Kolby]

If Mr. Ford cannot run his own busines how can he possibly run the Shelby County budget? PLEASE DO NOT put another Ford in office. We need a strong leader who will carry out the agenda for the people of Shelby County
