Put Plainfield First!
Plainfield, N.J. — June 12, 2013 — D. Scott Belin announces his candidacy
to be the next mayor of the City of Plainfield, NJ.
“Many citizens have asked for a
choice in the general election and are seeking a true change in Plainfield’s
leadership,” said D. Scott Belin . “Today, I announce my
candidacy for the position of Mayor of Plainfield, NJ. Like many of
Plainfield’s citizens, I have patiently waited for our city to be put on the
right path; only to see it continue to be second to party politics with little
progress. Once again, we are being promised a new party hopeful, a scenario
that seems very much like what we saw two terms ago. When a decision is made by
the party leaders before the primary, Plainfield’s citizens are being provided little
choice. My candidacy changes this and reflects the democratic process, by
giving the voters a choice come November. We, in Plainfield, now have a choice
from a future looking very much like the past. We hear promises to unite, move Plainfield
in a new direction and vague plans for success.
History has shown us these promises are followed by a short honeymoon, political
party discord and plans that do not benefit Plainfield; leading to resident disappointment.
We in Plainfield deserve better. We can do better, we must be better. We can
start by showing we are ready to be the best Plainfield we can – and Put Plainfield First! We need a Mayor who
prioritizes the needs of Plainfield first. A candidate that knows Plainfield’s
history its’ significance to the region, who remembers what it once was, where
it is today and what it must be in the future to be successful. I am that
candidate. My administration will be all inclusive, not driven by party
affiliation, economic status, race or creed. My administration will seek the
best and brightest. Plainfield must have a city government that draws on all to
be its best. We must include all in the city, not just a select few. We must
bring in new ideas and talent, not recycle the same candidates. Plainfield has
a choice, vote for a true change, D. Scott Belin and move forward or choose to
continue as we have done in the past, expecting different results.”
remember... THIS TIME THEY MEAN IT !! PINKY SWEAR AND ALL !!!
ReplyDeleteI like D. Scott Belin's approach to addressing the issues. It's kinda hard to go against a person who grew up in the city and is a current resident. But aside from that his business experience is clearly head and shoulders above the other candidates. Restoring Plainfield Pride is the only way to get to the future.
