Sam, I Am
Sam Carson, the son of the late Julia Carson, told me Thursday morning that he is running for Mayor of Indianapolis. Shortly after formally announcing, Marion County Democratic Chairman Ed Treacy put out this statement.
“The entry into the mayor’s race of the unemployed Sam Carson brings an interesting development — a candidate with neither the experience nor the capacity to address the three most pressing issues in Indianapolis — jobs, crime and education. Sam Carson has no experience in these areas and will bring nothing to the table in addressing them.”
Okay, I understand Andre Carson is supporting Melina Kennedy for Mayor, however you have to wonder if he spoke to Ed about his public comments regarding his Uncle. We all know politics is politics, but would you let someone say this about a member of your family? Particularly when it’s someone who you you already don’t necessarily have the best relationship to begin with.
See you at slating.
